SARS stops Everton China tour.: Whoa. I didn't even know they were going to China. But I guess the tour makes sense. Beginning this year, Everton has a strong Chinese influence, including their main sponsor Kejian (cellphone maker), and international midfielder Li Tie. Aston Villa is supposed to go, too, and hasn't announced any change in plan. First, the pro team tours were stopped by the WARS virus, and now by SARS.

It makes a lot of sense for Everton not to go given the present situation with regard to this virus. At the same time. it makes great sense for Villa to actually go ahead with the trip. ;-)
