Adieu

My PAPA/LOLO died last July 19, 2008. It was the reason I haven't blogged for a long period of time. I was not in the mood for anything since then and even until now I am still in the state of denial.

I am SHUTTING DOWN this BLOG.

I am transferring to another blog network. Probably WORDPRESS

Memorable Quotes by PBA Coaches

Here is a collection of memorable quotations coming from PBA coaches heard during games, time-outs and interviews.

"ganito, laglag natin kay alvin(patrimonio)...tapos alvin pagtanggap mo bahala ka na!!!"

-Eric Altamirano... heard during a PF's crucial time-out. Actually, anyone coaching ALVIN, from Chot Reyes to Eric to Ryan Gregorio would have the same instructions on ALVIN during dying seconds of a game.

============================================

Uichico: "Ah, Danny.. Danny.."

Caguioa & Helterbrand: (trying hard not to laugh)

Uichico: "ehem.. ah.. Andy, Andy, halika dito.."

-heard from Jong Uichico at the huddle during the 2007 Philippine Cup Finals between SMB and GINEBRA. That was the first Finals appearance of Jong as an GINEBRA coach. He used to coach SMB for a long time before the management transferred him to GINEBRA.

============================================

"Ano ka ba Nino? Dakdakan mo yang mga ungas na yan!! Si Canaleta ka!!"

-National Coach CHOT REYES reprimanding KG Canaleta after the latter opted to pass the ball rather finish a fast break that resulted to a turnover in last year's JONES CUP.

=============================================

Here is the main course: From the LIVING LEGEND... my most hated PBA Coach... Here are some of his famous/infamous one-liner during his PBA coaching days:

JAWO

"Second placer is better than 3rd and 4th"

1996 Governor's Cup Alaska vs Ginebra. Sour Graping has always been his favorite excuse when losing.

=============

"This is you.This is you.This is you."

-heard during a time-out at the huddle while making a play diagram

=============

and my most favorite quotation from SONNY JAWORSKI:

"Patay na ba?"

-during the ALLAN CAIDIC accident. JAWO was caught on TV saying these morbid lines while ALLAN CAIDIC was choking to death on the parquet floors of the ARANETA. Any PBA fan knows this incident.

Of PBA Brawl, Sonny Barrios and deporting an IMPORT...

I was actually anticipating the game yesterday between PUREFOODS and TALK N' TEXT until halfway in the THIRD QUARTER, I decided to shut off my TV. By that time, Talk N' Text was already leading by 18 Points in a very "boring game". And so I missed the main course of the evening.

A brawl happened last night involving Jondan Salvador, James Yap, Enrico Villanueva and Rob Sanz from the PUREFOODS against TNT's import Terrence Leather.

I'm a big Purefoods fan since "The Alvin Patrimonio" days. Watching this video sucks. It was ugly considering that TNT was already leading by 16 with 9 minutes to go in the final canto and still this kind of altercation would happen.

But come on, the whole thing was caused by the import. It was all Leather's fault - and the PBA. That IMPORT should be DEPORTED by NOW.

Here are my reasons why TERRENCE LEATHER SUCKS:

1. Jondan Salvador was making a post move against Terrence Leather. It is done to create space to get near the basket. The referee has the authority to monitor/check if the move would cause the OFFENSIVE PLAYER to CREATE a CHARGING FOUL or if the DEFENSIVE PLAYER would react and commit a DEFENSIVE FOUL.

In the video, the refeeree called it a "Defensive Blocking foul" against Leather.

Leather did not like the post move made by Salvador - and the referee's call. But the call made by the official was actually too late. They should have called the defensive foul right after the first bump. It was too obvious that the import's reaction was to block SALVADOR.

... and so after that call, the ugly thing happened... all INVOLVING LEATHER...

2. Since Terrence Leather replaced Aaron McGhee as import, Talk n' Text has always been in the news involving on and off court brawls. The "altercation" that happened last night was actually the THIRD altercation he's involved.

First, an off court collision involving him and HOMER SE during the Air21 and Talk n' Text eliminations game.

Second, he was again caught in a near fight against Ginebra's pair of Chris Alexander and Alex Crisano.

Third of course was the game last night.

Why is it that the PBA has been allowing all of this to happen? Everything went ugly since Renauld Barrios came into the league as commissioner.

They adopted the FIBA rules to include more physicality during games and look at the result. More FIGHTS, Brawls. The PBA has been turning into a Ghetto. Players were becoming Punks. It's all because of the obsolete Barrios.

Barrios has made controversial decisions inthe PBA since he was incepted as temporary commissioner.

Have you seen what happened during the Philippine Cup finals between Purefoods and Sta. Lucia when Barrios suspended James Yap for Game 5 of the Finals? When in fact, the league has not yet drafted a new league rules involving suspensions that is why they should be following the RULES drafted by Ex-com NOLI EALA wherein you cannot suspend a player in the FINALS rather make him pay for that in the next conference.

The PBA is getting ugly. They were imitating the NBA. Barrios is imitating DAVID STERN. ugh.

And for you readers, here's the next thing to happen in the PBA:

RPN9 will be the new home of the PBA in the next Philippine Cup. PBA will now be shown under Basketball Tv and C/S. RPN won the bidding against ABS-CBN's Studio 23.

My Personal Opinion:

Studio 23 actually backed out of the bidding because the PBA Board was actually biased to the whole bidding process. In fact, ABC5 did the same move of backing out.

BTV and C/S is not shown on FREE TV. Not all islands and cable providers in the Philippines have access to BTV and C/S. In fact, SKYCABLE doesn't have BASKETBAL TV on its channel. This would mean that the PBA would not be broadcasted in those too far provinces that doesn't have BTV and C/S in their reception.

This is just a stupid move.

BISHOP Teodoro Bacani is a FAGGOT

In his Manila Standard Today column on July 5, Teodoro Bacañi Jr. confesses that he doesn’t watch boxing and won’t be heaping praises on Manny Pacquiao’s recent victory because boxing is an inhuman sport.

VIEW THE FULL ARTICLE HERE


According to the "BISHOP",

"Professional boxing is not a sport for human beings. It is a brutal and brutalizing affair. It is inhuman. It is immoral, and should not be approved of or promoted. We should get rid of this so-called sport. It is a pity that we should glory in having a champion in a sport that debases human persons."

The picture of Diaz during the bout last Sunday and after he was knocked out was not a pretty picture of a human being. Though Manny was a gentleman enough to help pick up his fallen opponent, the fact is, it was he himself who hurt him and knocked him out, and he rejoiced in having done so. It is hardly human to rejoice in having hurt a fellow human being. I cannot see that as being in conformity with the commandment, “Love your neighbor as yourself.”

============================================================================================

If I would remember, Bishop Teodoro Bacani Jr. was the same PRIEST who was accused of SEXUAL HARASSMENT by his own secretary about 5 or 6 years ago.

The BISHOP surely has a lot of KNOWLEDGE about the word IMMORALITY being immoral himself.

Bishop BACANI wanted us to believe that instead of watching PACQUIAO fights, we should just rather watch porn movies because anyway, BOXING is inhuman and SEXUAL HARASSMENT is something that THE VATICAN could easily forgive just like what happened to his case.

To even quote the bishop,

"Though Manny was a gentleman enough to help pick up his fallen opponent, the fact is, it was he himself who hurt him and knocked him out, and he rejoiced in having done so. "

My question is:

Was that the same feeling he had after "getting laid"? He rejoiced? Wow.

Here's another excerpt from his column,

"My attitude is similar to this. I may admire a person for his skill in shooting a gun. I will applaud him for his accuracy in hitting the bulls eye in shooting competitions and winning championships."

Wow, see?
He is absolutely an EXPERT on GUNS, BULLS EYE, ELATION, FLAG CEREMONY, HELICOPTER...

...the man knows how to shoot... and hit the target...

LOL!

I bet his favorite drink is BUKO JUICE.

The bishop is a pretty good writer huh? He should try it out on FHM rather in MANILA STANDARD TODAY because no one reads that paper anyway.

How about having his own PRIEST's CONFESSIONS. I guess he would be fit for that kind of job having many acquaintances inside the convent doing the same thing..


With BISHOP BACANI being one of the leader of our CHURCH,
now I do not wonder why there is such a thing called

"Prayer of EJACULATION"


Google it.

M/V Princess of the Stars TRIBUTE

Instead of pinpointing and blaming the

PERWISYO LINES,

the PAGASA,

the Philippine Coast Guard,

FRANK,

God, nature...

Why not just pray for the souls of those who have lost their lives in the tragedy..

Here is a video I made as a tribute to those victims and also for

the families and loved ones of those who died.

The song is ANGEL by Sarah Mclachlan.

STARBUCKS to SHUT 500 STORES... in the U.S.

The Giant Coffee Company

is closing down 500 of its store across

the UNITED STATES due to HIGH Gas Prices.

CLICK HERE for the FULL ARTICLE.

and another one here...

CLICK HERE for the FULL ARTICLE.

12,000 BARISTAS would soon lose their job...

========================================================

In the U.S., a cup of STARBUCKS COFFEE costs about $4.00

(that would be around 180 Pesos)

Here in the PHILIPPINES, a cup of STARBUCKS COFFEE

costs to around 110-150 PESOS.

If their reason for shutting down the stores in the U.S

is because of HIGH GAS Prices,

that would mean they charge an extra

30 PESOS for a COFFEE with KEROSENE or UNLEADED...

LOL!!!

I wonder what it taste...

IMAGINE your favorite Starbucks Barista shouting

"One CARAMEL MACCHIATO with DIESEL for Aira"

Harhar... !!! LOL!!!

===================================================================

But on the serious note, I guess its KARMA for the coffee company.

They have a lot of controversies in the past. To name a few:

First,

"Anti-Competitive TACTICS"

...its their attempt to drive out

small and independent coffee companies.

Second,

"Fair Trade in the Coffee Bean Market"

...they play MONOPOLY while drinking COFFEE. LOL.

...and as a result of all these SELFISH acts, LOOK what is happening now on your business...

Even here in the PHILIPPINES,

GAS PRICE INCREASE

has been affecting

all commodities available in the market.

and SOON, maybe your

FAVORITE COFFEE CHAIN

slash

HANG OUT PLACE

at your

FAVORITE MALL

would also do the same move

...

It's the same thing happening in our country...

the GOVERNMENT doesn't have control

over those

weekly INCREASE of GAS PRICES

because our local

OIL COMPANIES

import those raw materials

from the INTERNATIONAL MARKET

which is also facing their own crisis right now.

They say it's caused by the US economic recession

...but whatever it is...

it's just something

UNCONTROLLABLE.

Fr. Jorge I. Barlin = Baao: Facts about The First Filipino Bishop; something to be proud of

This is an excerpt from the December, 1995 issue of "Kaiba".

First, he was the first clergyman to become civil governor (of Sorsogon) from September 20, 1898, until the coming of the Americans in 1900.

=========================================

Second, he was the first and only person (up to this time) to have headed and governed a province both politically and ecclesiastically.

He was the political and ecclesiastical head at the same time during the crucial period of our history when our country was being torn between two foreign loyalties, Spain and America.

photo credit from: www.bigberto.blogspot.com

Third, he was the first and presumably the only priest to whom the supreme prelacy of the Philippine Independent Church, a.k.a. Aglipayan church, was offered.His response to Padre Gregorio Aglipay's offer as supreme head was as curt as it was devastating:

"Prefiero ser lampazero a ser la cabeza de su iglesia cismatica,"

(I prefer to be floor sweeper than to be the head of your schismatic church.)
(he lambasted that fucktard who own that church along Taft Avenue...)

=======================================================

Fourth, he was the first Filipino to have received two distinguished ecclesiastical honors from two Popes.

Pope Leo XIII made Barlin a Papal Chamberlain, and his successor, Pope Pius X made him Protonotary Apostolic Ad Instar Participantium (making him a member of the chief order of prelates.)

These two promotions and honors were conferred between 1903 and 1905 when he was the Apostolic Administrator of the vacant See of Nueva Caceres.

Meaning, during the time when there was no bishop in Bikol, he was the head in acting capacity.

Fifth, Barlin was the first and to date, the only priest, whose name is immortalized in Philippine Jurisprudence.

In court rulings Barlin vs. Ramirez case (Philippine Jurisprudence No. 41) decided in 1904 and upheld by the Supreme Court in 1906 is resorted to, court rulings "on peaceable possessions of properties." The Supreme Court's decision was an irreparable blow to the Aglipayan movement whose schismatic priests in possession of of Catholic churches and properties in some parts of the Islands were or-dered to vacate (said churches) in favor of the Catholic Church. Lagonoy Church, Fr. Vicente Ramirez' Agli-payan stronghold and where the case originated, had to be surrendered to the Catholic Church, that time under Msgr. Barlin.

=================================================

Sixth, Jorge Barlin E Imperial was and is the First Filipino Bishop.

He was not only the "First Filipino Bishop under the American Regime" as some misled historians claim, but the First Filipino Bishop of all times.

Some historians also claim that Barlin was the "First Filipino Bishop of Mixed Blood."

We maintain in spite of his "un-Filipino" tall stature that he was a Filipino "de pura cepa" a full blooded Filipino... by blood, by aspirations, by all aspects including his penchant for hot food--
gulay he ate with gusto, cooked the Baao or Bikol way especially for what us now known as the Bicol Express, gulay na sili.

==============================================

Last but not the least, Bishop Barlin was the first to have been invited to deliver the Invocation of the Inaugural Session of the Philippine Assembly in October 16, 1907.

He was then the only Filipino bishop and all other dioceses were headed by American bishops--Manila, Cebu, Nueva Segovia and Nueva Caceres.

For the first time Bikol or Nueva Caceres was in the limelight not only nationally but internationally, according to an American historian.

All because of Bishop Jorge Barlin e Imperial.

=============================================


These facts are just few of the many things that would prove he is Baao's most prized possession and most popular personality of course. His passion and dedication to the Catholic Church and to God is something that should be imbibe in the hearts of many Filipino youths especially my fellow Baaoenyos. Baao has always been known to be the "Religious Capital" of the Archdioces of Nueva Caceres due to its outputs of numerous priests and nuns and something that is missing today.

INYAKI is a FAT ASS Liar

In this video during the PDA Season 2 Final Casting, INYAKI(enye) Ting told Maestro Ryan Cayabyab and Direk Joey Reyes and probably the whole world that he made his own arrangement of the classic song SUMMER BREEZE.

But he was just actually singing or should I say mimicking Jason Mraz version of the same song. He's definitely a fat ass liar. Shame on him and his family. Dude, mahiya ka naman...

Watch the video.

HARAPAN: no OFFENSE to GAY PEOPLE

Since its pilot episode about a week ago on ABS-CBN, HARAPAN is definitely the only WORTH-WATCHING TV show in the land today.

I hate ABS-CBN for being bias in issues regarding governement controversies but the tandem of Korina and Ted Failon in HARAPAN is just hard to resist. I don't know how to describe it. They're obviously trying to be a political satire show just like Jon Stewart Show in the U.S. but it's okay because the humor of Ted and Korina definitely mixed well with their sensibility.

Last night, their second episode aired which is about World Bank's WGI which puts the Philippines a hot spot for Corruption and they invited the perfect guests to tackle the issues. On the government side, it was USEC Anthony Golez and a PAGC Chair which I forgot the name. And on the opposition side or should we say the civil group, it was Atty. Harry Roque and that BAYAN secretary-general katutubo which I also could not remember his name.

I love how Korina and Ted heats up the issue. Korina at first acts out like she was so ignorant about the subject and later after the guest have answered, she would air her side on the issue like a university professor.

But the main course of last night episode was when Anthony Golez made a remark about Atty. Harry Roque's too much TV appearance as I would guess. Golez was like saying "sayang naman ang pagiging abogado ni Harry Roque kung he cannot instill respect on institutions of justice like The Ombudsman and then magsasabi siya ng kung anu-anong allegations pero wala namang proof."

Obviously, Atty. Roque answered back with a statement "I would like to take offense with that statement by USEC Golez blah blah". But while Roque was airing his side, it was like the Gay slash lawyer wanted to cry. He was even stuttering while speaking. In our local dialect, "gusto ng maglupinak".

But I get the point of Golez. Roque is a lawyer and he must understand that the only thing you can prove something to be true is thru legal process and in proper forum and not by using the Media as your resort. He used to do that thing regarding his allegations against the governement which were all dismissed in proper court because of lack of evidence. He once sue the President at The Ombudsman with administrative and criminal charges without thinking of "THE RULE OF IMMUNITY". I guess for a lawyer not aware of that rule and still insisting his charges in legal proceedings against an immuned government official is a basic form of ignorance of the law.

The show is really great especially that it brings awareness to the people about issues regarding politics.

THe GENIUS behind PACQUIAO

I always believe that there would be no Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant without a Phil Jackson.

The same with Manny Pacquiao, the reason for his success would always rely on the GENIUS MIND of La Cucaracha or known to us Filipinos as Freddie Roach, Pacquiao's second father.

Roach suffered PARKINSON's Disease due to his durable fighting style when he was still a lightweight boxer and he had speech difficulty since acquiring the degenerative disorder. But the disease did not affect his intelligence about THE SWEET SCIENCE and the sport he has always loved as he has made Manny Pacquiao into a complete package he is now.

Definitely the best pound for pound fighter in the world today, Pacquiao owed everything to ROACH- and God of course as he always tell in his interviews.

Just like in his recent victory over David Diaz to capture his fourth belt, it was Freddie who think of the idea of moving into LIGHTWEIGHT, which is PACQUIAO's natural weight.

The reason? Simply because The PACMAN didn't have to STARVE in order to win a fight.

He always had difficulty in his previous fights when reaching the 130 lb. limit. The result? His speed would be visible throughout a 12-round match but his power and the intensity of his game would wear out in the championship rounds.

Now that he's at 135 lbs. on his latest outing, we couldn't say anything but just appreciate his hand power, speed and all the complete package of a boxer. To quote David Diaz after the fight, "Manny Pacquiao is freaking fast. He is freaking fast."

Diaz is absolutely right and we have to give credit to Freddie Roach for that speed which was last seen on Manny Pacquiao 5 years ago.

Credit the tremendous training that two buddies have spent in Los Angeles, but credit more the BOXING INTELLIGENCE that Roach have instilled in the BRAIN of the former PANADERO.

Kudos to both of them.
