Asian Stigmas.
Asian people aren’t known for their athleticism outside of ping pong and maybe girls gymnastics.
And then there was Jeremy Lin of the New York Knicks. “Linsanity” as it was dubbed at the height of his popularity. He was gonna change it all. He showed the world, that Asian people can ball.
And perhaps, as if to just cement the new age of Asians in sports, Jeremy Lin might have big balls. And one day, while going up for a layup or a dunk, somehow his penis would fall out of his shorts and slap a taller black player in the face. It’d be like saying “ka-pow! … There’s a new sheriff in town. And he isn’t squinting from the sun, it’s cause he’s Asian.”
But with his knee surgery, who knows if Jeremy Lin will come back to basketball fame. This writer can only hope, so he has an Asian American idol. Lord knows that William Hung isn’t much of an idol to strive for, even though he has dreams.
