ganid Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 From what I heard, Rabeh Al-Husseini decided to attend Ateneo through the advise of his half-brother Carlo Sharma. It seems like Sharma had a falling out with Coach Pumaren after their 2002 defeat to Ateneo. Pumaren blamed Mike Cortez for the debacle dahil nagbenta daw and castigated Cardona as well as Sharma for not playing their hearts out with hints of game-fixing. Kaya ayun, sabi ni Kuya mag-Ateneo ka na lang, thanks Coach Pumaren! Isa pa po. About accusing your players of selling games when they do not perform well. It is the risk you run when you hire mercenaries to play for you. Chris Tiu had two consecutive low scoring games against UE and La Salle. Did anyone even hint at the idea that he may have been point shaving or selling the game. No way. That is not the Ateneo way. Quote Link to comment

kanski Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 man, i've never seen the ateneo faithful out in force the way they are now. or at least, i haven't seen them out like this in quite a while. bakit kaya? Quote Link to comment
revi Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 sige, anong isyu ang gusto nating pag-usapan? kung gaano karaming guestings ang gagawin ng blue eagles on ABS shows? hahahaha.. Bakit sa GMA wala silang guestings? Ayaw daw ba ni Mike Enriquez? Mag-aartista na ba si one-time champion, Chris Tiu? Quote Link to comment

Pasensiya ka na kasi gumawa na naman ng controversy yung magaling na coach niyo e. Sana after the "congratulations" "thank you" "see you next season" tapos na.Pagsabihan niyo na kasi na tumanggap ng pagkatalo at may next season pa naman. Masaya naman sa thread na ito diba?

tagalinis Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 man, i've never seen the ateneo faithful out in force the way they are now. or at least, i haven't seen them out like this in quite a while. bakit kaya? 1. We won a great series. sayang nga lang sinira ng iba yung uaap 2008 by being sore losers. 2. We swept our favorite rival all by decisive margins 3. We won the juniors and the seniors titles 4. Matagal na kaming walang title but mind you, even when we were this close to the championship, we NEVER quesioned the way our opponent won or how we lost. Not in public anyway. That IS NOT the Ateneo way. ONE BIG FIGHT!!!!!! TWO BIG BONFIRES!!!!!!!!! ONE GREAT ATENEO!!!!!!! BLUE EAGLE THE KING!!!!!!!!! and to the question of a greenie in the posts above. I am mid 30s. My Dad is close to 50 and he was Blue Babble same as my sons, one on the cheering squad, the other on the training team. All my male (and now even my famale younger relatives) are all True Blue Ateneans!!!!!! Quote Link to comment
ganid Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Top ten reasons Rico showed us his finger: 10. I was telling JVee to get out of the corner and rebound. 9. I was telling Walsham who was fondling Rabeh, "ako naman". 8. Si Revilla, binaril si Baracael, nothing happened. I just pointed my middle finger. 7. Sabi ni Coach. 6. I was not conjuring a phallic symbol. If I wanted to advertise my privates, I would have used my pinkie to be more accurate. 5. I did not think it proper to clean my nose and point with the same finger. 4. I did not think I would be caught. 3. I sprained my finger and was trying to show it to Dr. George Canlas who repaired Rabeh's sprained ankle that allowed him to score 31 points in game 1. 2. We had cut the Ateneo lead from 15 to 6. I had to do something to break our rhythm. And the real reason Rico pointed his finger....... 1. I was in a trance for 95 hours 47 minutes and 13 seconds. Last thing I remember was the ball being stuffed down my throat and Nonoy standing over me screaming. Then I woke up and ......... Quote Link to comment
ganid Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Bargain Sale: 1. The UAAP is offering brand new, untouched by undeserving owner seniors basketball trophy and medals. 2. As of yesterday afternoon, they are also selling a similar second runner up juniors basketball trophy. 3. Over in Taft Avenue, they are selling an unlimited supply of "Back to Back 07-08" t-shirts. All above items being sold to lowest bidder. To answer previous question, I am 48 years young and looking forward to reconnecting with old friends on Tuesday evening. Quote Link to comment
fmulder Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 first things first, im from dlsu and i have been an avid follower of our basketball team for a long time. and i want to offer some observations re the recently concluded championship against admu. -our school shouldv exhibited better sportsmanship by getting someone to receive the runner up trophy from the league. it was a very tough loss but in sports you have to take the good with the bad and its best to be gracious in defeat. -young and present players alike should take their cue from casio n chris tiu for showing class during their playing yrs. rarely if not at all have i seen them trash talk whenever they scored and they do score a lot. it is irritating to see young players nowadays celebrate and rub it in their defenders faces whenever they score. so hats off to j casio and c tiu. -re the calls of the refs. objectively speaking, i think the calls could have gone either way, i mean both sides got their share of bad calls. that being said what i want to point out is that they should have let the players play...its the freaking championship and touch fouls r being called left n right. in almost all other championship leagues when its championship time, the game gets a little more physical and the refs gives the players more leeway to play. dlsus new players was unable to adust to the tight calls, kudos to ateneos veteran players for being able to. -whoever called that tech on rico should be fed to the sharks. he decided the whole outcome f the game... im not saying we would win but we could have.. a warning to rico, the coach or the captain ball would have sufficed. --give pumaren a break he must have his reasons for not coming out to accept the trophy...for sure he must have been consoling and motivating his players to do better next season, the school board rep should have taken the initiative to accept it on the teams behalf. -lastly i truly believe that admu is the better team this season...all their veteran players have been battle tested and can contribute when needed...special mention to chris, i mean the f**ker can shoot and play smart....last time we felt chills down our spine whenever someone shoots was larry fo's time. our young players will learn from this n will only get better... -as a parting shot im looking forward to next season cos i hear rumors that we have 2 new rookies coming in and one of them is 6-7 norbert torres from the youth team...wonder if this is true? peace to all....animo la salle Quote Link to comment
