I discussed with 4 dad about kids being bullied in school. None of them said throw a fight. One of them said "safety first". Invite the bullying kids to home for dinner. Guys, come on, fight for your dignity.

1900–05; earlier Chinkie apparently alteration of China, Chinese by association with chink 1 (from the stereotypical Western image of Chinese as narrow-eyed); see -ie
Last night, ESPN***'s mobile web site posted an offensive headline referencing Jeremy Lin at 2:30 am. The headline was removed at 3:05 am. We are conducting a complete review of our cross-platform editorial procedures and are determining appropriate disciplinary action to ensure this does not happen again. We regret and apologize for this mistake.
Sincerely,

This is sad; first of all despite all Chinese out there think that Lin is Chinese he is NOT. He represents a US NBA team and he is a US citizen. Why is that every time some one is remotely related to Chinese by blood, genetically, or heritage everyone just assumes he/she is a Chinese? Like many people think Gary Locke is Chinese but he is NOT. True ESPN might be doing something stupid but you allow it by recognize Lin is a Chinese.
WTF? 标题取为“Chink In The Armor(穿盔甲的中国佬)”? chink in the armor means a fatal weakness in one's armor! It doesn't mean 穿盔甲的中国佬!!! Get your English right you pathetic reporter!
1) An narrow opening and vulnerable area in one's armor that the opponent will usually aim for. This term relies on "chink" in the sense of "a crack or gap," a meaning dating from about 1400 and used figuratively since the mid-1600s.
2) A figurative term for a one's weakness, largest flaw or their prevention of success.
chink in one's armour - 成语: a small but fatal weakness

在我看来是敏感了,的原意就是“裂缝”,主持的问得意思是说如果说林的表现有些不足的话,是哪里?

The massacre of Jews in the World War II was a history decades ago; but no American politicians dare to give it a damn to Jews now. Chinese has too much of 四野2 attitude that leads to the minimization and humiliation of Chinese around the world. Over a hundred years have passed, Chinese has always been associated with laborers rather than leaders..
