Ball break
Can't believe it's been a week since I last played basketball. I don't remember the last time this has happened.

Unbelievable
No hoops scheduled last night, tomorrow, Sunday morning and Monday night. Definitely signs of a boring weekend ahead.

Battle of Katipunan Part 2
I usually watch an Ateneo game or two every UAAP season but I haven't gone to any this year. I'm planning to catch the Ateneo-UP round 2 game and see the Eagles blow the shit out of the Maroons in a revenge game.
Ateneo lost its only game of the season to UP in round 1 via a 10-point rout so I'm sure they're raring to exact some vengeance.

MAAI 2009: Season ends
We lost our game last night, 68-72, so our record dropped to 3-2, tied for 3rd in the standings. However, we lose out on the tiebreaker so we're end up fourth place and out of the playoffs. Due to the short season, only the top 3 teams make it to the semifinal round.
We fell behind big early, being down by as many as 22 points, 30-52. We came roaring back to tie the game at 56 early in the 4th quarter but we couldn't convert down the stretch.
ABL season starts in less than 6 months. Still not sure which team I'll play for though.

Insane Bolt
Jamacain sprinter Usain Bolt set off two new world records recently by running the 100m in 9.58 seconds and the 200m in 19.19 seconds at the 2009 World Championships in Berlin.
The previous world records of 9.69 (100m) and 19.30 (200m) were also set by Bolt in the 2008 Beijing Olympics.

MAAI 2009: Playoffs on the horizon
Got a big game this Saturday night. If we win, we automatically qualify for the playoffs. Not all is lost if we lose though. We still have a chance to make it but we'll need help from the other teams.
I'm happy we hold our destiny in our hands. We're going all out and hopefully, we come out with a victory.

Short circuit
The world knows I love women in short shorts. But this is taking it to another level. It's off the damn charts.
You won't see me complain though.

Daily holiday
Quezon City folks will enjoy two holidays this week - a citywide holiday tomorrow (Quezon City Day) and a national holiday on Friday (Ninoy Aquino Day). It's bittersweet that I won't be enjoying these holidays like I used to.
However, since I have complete control of my schedule, I can make every day a fuckin' holiday. How can you top that?

Green genocide
It's muuuurrrdddaaaaaa!!!!! Word to Ja Rule.
Ateneo just annihilated La Salle, 81-65.
Truth be told, it was a huge mismatch from the start. The Green Archers never had a chance. It was like throwing a wounded animal into shark-infested waters. There's zero chance of survival.
Someone call 9-1-1, I see people going on suicide watch.

Crossroads
Saw this from a friend:
One of the hardest things in life is deciding which bridges to cross and which to burn.
So true.

No big deal
I honestly don't know what's the big fuss about President Arroyo and her entourage racking up $35k in dinner bills while they were in the US.
I don't care where they ate, how much they spent or who took the tab. The government folks said the money came from private sources so let's keep it at that.
This reminds me of a similar instance last year when local IBM execs were driving new Bimmers while we were laying off a big number of employees. People will spend their money as they please, regardless of whatever moral or social implications it may generate.
Seriously, people should stop fronting like they're all charitable. We're all just the same.

Dumb Black
Norman Black and the Blue Eagles have the best record in the UAAP at 7-1. However, Black may just be the dumbest coach in the league too.
How can he let a huge 17-point lead dwindle down to 5 in less than two minutes? Only a stupid fucker allows that to happen. Yes, they did get the win but they had to sweat it out in the final minute instead of cruising to a comfortable blowout.
Yeah, I am fuckin' heated.

NBA everyday
I finally have Basketball TV (BTV). SkyCable sent us two Digiboxes for free the other day and the BTV channel came along at no extra cost as well.
I no longer have to rely on ESPN's and Star Sports' once a week broadcasts for NBA games.

The Baroness
Bloodied or not, the Baroness can definitely get it.
She seems good with big guns so I'll let her fire mine too.
Cover Girl
Nothing wields sexiness and power more than a woman in formal military gala.
Heck, she makes digital camo look sizzlin' too.

Ateneo survives DLSU scare
I have to admit I expected Ateneo to knock the shit out the La Salle asses during last night's game but I'll take the four-point victory nevertheless. First round ends with Ateneo (6-1) on top due to their straight-up win over FEU, who also sport a similar 6-1 record.
I have to give credit to the Green Archers for putting up a great fight though Webb took it to another level by doing his best horse impression and giving Bacon Austria a kick to the side of the torso. Like grandfather, like grandson.
Anyway, I'm mad Ateneo had absolutely no chance of covering the huge 12-point spread. They cost a lot of Blue faithful some damn good money last night.

MAAI 2009: Team Millar gets 3rd win
We survived a nailbiter of a game in a 59-54 win last night. I knocked in four straight freethrows to seal the deal in the final seconds.
Play of the day? I drilled a 30-footer just before the halftime buzzer. Boom boom Pao.

Stupid kids
*Shots fired*
It's both hilarious and weird that some of the people who are OD-ing on Cory's death were kids who weren't even alive during EDSA 86 or during her term as president.
Y'all don't know shit so quit frontin' like you know jack.

Cory is no National Hero
Some camps are clamoring for former President Corazon C. Aquino to be given National Hero honors.
Please tell me it's a joke. We're all getting way ahead of ourselves. People lose their rational sense when overwhelmed with emotions. Let us not use her recent death as a bargaining tool.
Cory was thrusted into the national spotlight in 1986, as the opposition's presidential standard bearer. Her ascent to the presidency was a byproduct of a lot of political and social events, Ninoy's assassination in 1983 and People Power among others. She was merely the figurehead chosen to lead our nation back into democracy. She did not do anything remotely heroic.
Yes, she had her contributions and I'm not belittling them. However, whatever she had done for the country does not even scratch the surface of what Jose Rizal, Lapu-Lapu and Ninoy did for us. And let me remind everyone that she did not live a hero's life nor did she die a martyr's death.
For all these reasons and more, she should not be hailed as a National Hero. She just doesn't make the cut.
Ninoy, yes. But Cory, no.
