Ex Pba Players

Do you know where are the PBA players we once idolized? What are they doing? Are they still playing? What league? Please share all the information you have about them on this thread.

 

We know that Rudy Distrito is now in jail in the US for murder. Ricky Brown I think is a principal in a high school also in the states.

I recently read in Beth Celis' Inquirer column that Yoyoy Villamin is cab driver in the US. I forgot which state exactly.

 

Benjie Paras is a TV comedian.

 

Jerry Codiñera is the head coach of TeleTech in the PBL. This call center even fielded him as a player in an Inter-Call Center League.

 

Wala na akong balita sa iba.

 

@clubber_lang: I didn't know Abe King already died. What was the circumstances behind his death?

Really, Jerry Codiñera played for teletech? As if hindi pa enough lineup nila against other call centers.

Yves Dignadice based in the US. Saw him in Carson, CA a couple years ago. Naka F-150 pa si mokong asensado na. Hehehe. Patay na pala si Abe King I think he want back to the US and became a mechanic and he was based in Buena Park. Naning Valenciano, Peter Aguilar, Tim Coloso, Ricky Relosa, Rey Lazaro, Willie Pearson. These guys are all in the US together with Francis Arnaiz. Ruben Dela Rosa is a firefighter in Subic while his brother Romy Dela Rosa is now based in the US.

Abe King is dead. Ricky Relosa must still be running away from Ronnie Thompkins!

 

Philip Cezar is still involved, albeit on the background, in San Juan politics...

 

I'm surprised to have read na wala na si Abe King, nag-issue na ba ng statement ang PBA regarding this? Para naman ma-inform mga fans niya...

 

 

Mag-create sana ako ng room titled "Players na dapat nasa PBA pa" kasi ang daming Pinoy players na puwede pa naman sa PBA pero hindi na kinuha ng alinmang PBA teams like in the case of Bryan Gahol, this player got outside shooting at may galaw din sa shaded area pero wala nang kumuha na team....

Nice thread!!! :cool:

 

Did not know that Cuenco and Abe King are dead.. Terry Saldaña, member sa kulto ni Ecleo? That's something!!! hehehe!!! Ricky Brown, a teacher.. Wow!!!

 

Dante Gonzalgo I heard lives in either Marikina or Antipolo and is poor due to his gambling addiction.. Ewan ko kung ano ang pinagkakakitaan niya..

 

Chito Loyzaga is an executive in either SMB or Ginebra.. Saw him once in Greenhills.. He was wearing barong and was looking for someone to repair his Cellphone..

 

How about Abet Guidaben? Okay pa ba yung hardware/construction supplies negosyo niya sa may Commonwealth? Para kasing wala na dun eh..

I can't recall any news about Abe King's demise.

 

Ang alam kong namatay ay iyong namesake niya na San Juan councilor who passed away mid last year.

Thanks revi, I just thought about the days when the PBA was still ruled by TRUE Filipinos. Those times were the best times and the peak of the PBA. A lot of Filipino players come and go, you would just notice one day that a particular player is already missing without any news as to what happened to him. Thats when I got the idea to put up a thread that concerns the M.I.A. players.

 

Correction, Ricky Brown isn't a teacher. He is a principal! Loyzaga having his cellphone repaired? Grabe bumili na lang sya ng bago hehehe. I heard that Elmer Reyes and another ex player is in the auto buy and sell business.

Bonel Balingit and Zaldy Realubit are employed is pasay under Office of the mayor...

 

As casual employees.

Saklap...

As what? Doing what? baka naman ghost employees lang hehehe sumisipot lang dun pag salary time. You know what guys it's kinda evident that a lot of pro players (not only from the PBA) or high earning players does not know how to handle their money. Damn a lot of them end without anything. What happened to the money they were earning when they were being paid very well from their sport? Wake up guys, a lot of people would love to be in your shoes and would definitely know how to make that money grow or at least sustain it. A perfect example of "gulong ng palad". When kaya tayo mapupunta sa itaas like this guys once where? I won't lose my money, thats for sure!

 

san na kaya si scavenger?

Sino na nga ba si scavenger? Freddie Abuda ba? Baka isa na sya ngayon true scavenger, wag naman sana.

well... yung kinikita naman kasi nila is gross amount...

may cut pa dyan ang manager at tsaka babawasan pa ng taxes yan...

in the end they really don't earn that much esp since ito yung mga pioneers or mga role players...

what I mean to say is that di pa naman ganun kataas salary nun...

lately lang naman tinaasan yan but was eventually scaled down!

may iba din kasi nadadala sa sugal or even failed business ventures...

 

in addition, I heard that si Jay Mendoza may pet shop na sa tiendesitas...

dog breeder kasi si Jay and I think he put his hobby into good use...
