    "What's wrong, Fukuda. Chicken?" "Nobody calls me 'chicken', Hu. Nobody! But I have meeting to go to. Excuse me..."

    Hu beat Japanese teen player Fukuhara in five of the eight rounds of rally they had.

    damn! he must be pretty handy.

    You think they'd let her into China again if she beat him? Fukuda really has no passion for anything does he? The perfect chance to show Japan he is human, and he blew it.

    it is a good start for the futher talk, dosen't matter who beats whom, just like shaking hand, the most important is we start talking again

    "serious-faced Hu beat Japanese teen player Fukuhara in five of the eight rounds of rally they had."

    So I take it we will be seeing Hu Jing Tao on the Chinese team at the Olympics? I had no idea he was that good.

    I would cut Fukuda a break. Maybe he didn't wan't to disgrace his whole country by showing the entire world how physically uncoordinated their prime minister is. That would be a patriotic choice.

    "ping pong is not a sport"
