Who Declared The Philippines A Basketball Paradise??

The Cambridge Dictionary defines league as a group of teams playing a sport who take part in competitions between each other.  That same dictionary defines misnomer as a name that does not suit what it refers to, or the use of such a name. They further define paradise as a place or condition of great…

Pinoy Culture Is To Blame For The Gilas Gnashing Of Teeth

I can’t believe in 2019 where we have so much access to information that people still love to play the genetic victim card or some other excuse why the only country on Earth with basketball tunnel vision is so inept once they leave the country:. “Other teams are taller” “Height is might.” “There’s no question…

James Harden Says Manila Is His Favorite Place In The World

I feel like sitting on the fence today. I really don’t feel like making waves. I just want to say I feel the title of this piece which is identical to a MSN article is complete and utter bull crap. A lot of what I write is based on what I see in the news…

What The PBA And Kia Motors Are Really Saying Hiring Manny Pacquiao

” Now, a staple of the superhero mythology is, there’s the superhero and there’s the alter ego. Batman is actually Bruce Wayne, Spider-Man is actually Peter Parker. When that character wakes up in the morning, he’s Peter Parker. He has to put on a costume to become Spider-Man. And it is in that characteristic Superman…

The US Made It Out Of The Group Of Death A Testament To Leftovers Achieving

The Group of Death is not a Bruce Lee movie. Actually the “Group of Death ” is just as arbitrary as the INC claiming that they built the “World’s Largest Dome Arena“.  The title Group of Death in the context of the FIFA World Cup is a indeed a subjective label but here Bleacher Report…

Manny Pacquiao coaching in Miami! (Not!)

Kudos to whoever made this photoshopped image of Manny Pacquiao making like Coach in Miami! Brilliant! It’s true in a different sense, however. The Filipino pound-for-pound greatest fighter in the world is making a career move into what remains the Philippines’ favourite sport… Pacquiao’s love for basketball is no secret, and he told reporters in…

Why Andray Blathche Being A Proud Pinoy Makes Perfect Sense

Just in time for the June 12 holiday, an NBA player is proud to be pinoy.  NBC Rotoworld called it one of the strangest stories of the off season. If Andray  Blatche is proud to be Filipino, can I be proud to be part of the 1972 Maimi Dolphins?   Blatche was able to play…

Can sport unite Filipinos?

Why are Filipinos not even good at sport? It seems like our athletes had been waved a red flag one day and then simply gave up on trying to achieve world-class status on all types of sport — I know, I know, aside from boxing, of course. A sport is commonly defined as an organized,…
