Drizzly Thursday afternoon. Rainwater strewed the ground. It's a bit humid. I had to wear a hoodie, to retard the development of colds.
I was hanging out with my friend Marco that afternoon, who happens to be an awesome footballer. He plays as defensive midfielder if I tapped it correctly from my memory, and he does his stint very well by the way. So, we talked about the usual stuff, the How are you's. As I binged on my barbecue-flavored fried potatoes minced into thin slices, we shifted the conversation to what else, football.
In this archipelago, normally, you won't hear people talking about football. Translation: Majority of the Filipinos do not patronize the sport. I can then conclusively say that this is owed to the influential contribution of Uncle Sam to our culture. Basketball. I guess we, Filipinos, love aggressive sports. Something that should surprise and amaze us. Not to mention, fast-paced action. Thus, we were easily clutched by basketball.
But wouldn't it be so nice if we expand our inclination to sports and not just limit it to basketball? Yes, we are already at par with other countries in terms of our competitiveness in basketball, but we should not stop there, should we? What I'm trying to say is that we should at least try harboring other sports, say football, since it is also widely played professionally. You ask, "How are we gonna get the players for this sport?" Oh, we have lots of talented footballers in the country. What we need to do is to subsidize these players. Support them. For maybe in the future, they might be representing our country in FIFA.
UPDATE:
FA Premier League
1st - Arsenal (19pts)
2nd - Manchester United (17pts)
3rd - Manchester City (16pts)
4th - Liverpool (15pts)
5th - Portsmouth (12pts)
6th - Blackburn (12pts)
7th - Chelsea (12pts)
8th - Newcastle (11pts)
9th - Aston Villa (10pts)
10th - West Ham United (10pts)
Talk about vengeance. Five consecutive wins in a row! Hail Manchester United! Hail Sir Alex Ferguson! I think the dark horse this season is Manchester City. Chelsea FC should gain more wins under their belts. 'Bout Arsenal. Hmm. They're starting to look very decisive. This would be a great great season!
[EDIT 7:43 P.M.]
La Salle won against Ateneo by five points. As I always say, the real winners at the end of the day are J. Amado Araneta and the chunk of sponsors. But kudos to the De La Salle University - Manila Green Archers. Next game: >–UE—>
I was spawned in the same year Alfredo Stroessner was overthrown, and on the same day the Australian Capital Territory Legislative Assembly met for the first time.
I am currently in college, taking up Bachelor of Arts Major in Economics and Bachelor of Science in Commerce Major in Advertising Management. I hold two majors, ergo the academic bane I will be experiencing is doubled. But so far, I have not yet swooned, thank God.
I am a control freak. 'Nuff said.
My usual McDonald's meal is comprised of Quarter Pounder, large fries and Coke, extra gravy and vanilla milkshake.
It is in my nature to assume responsibility. I often contemplate about the complexity of life.
I tend to shrink from social contacts and become preoccupied with my own thoughts. I often isolate myself from the pool. Don't get me wrong though. I am not deprived of friends; in fact, I have a bunch of good chums. It is always quality over quantity for me. I don't go for braggy and ostentatious people; I loathe them.
I am not really adept in writing so pardon my tense inconsistencies of verbs, wrong usage of conjunctions and preposition, incorrect separation of paragraphs, faulty usage of colons and semi-colons, et cetera.
Respect begets respect. You're free to judge and read. But please observe proper netiquette - internet etiquette.
Thanks for great idea
