bods1000 Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Actually, pareng Bods, Michael Hackett played with Anejo/Ginebra, not with Toyota. The really great Toyota import was Andy Fields (although 80s na 'to). Snake Jones played for both Crispa and Toyota. As for Crispa, their really great import during the 70s (before Billy Ray Bates) was Cyrus Mann.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> eh pareho din yun pare, di ba - sina Jaworski din pucha how can I forget Andy Fields and Cyrus Mann Cyrus Mann had really long arms that can scoop that ball for rebounds....kaya lang may mga tsismis nun na nagbebenta din ng laro itong si Cyrus Mann because he played lackadaisically in some games....

jt2003 Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Ang dinig ko naman, pareng Bods, was that Cyrus Mann's dip in performance was due to substance abuse. Quote Link to comment
bods1000 Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 ayaan!pati din yun sayang he got a lot of talent! pare do you remember those two guys who played for Mariwasa, if I'm not mistaken - Billy Ray Robinson and the great comical Cisco Oliver! Quote Link to comment

sliderule Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Ang tatalas pa rin ng mga memory nyo! The comical Cisco Oliver would fake his free throw and get the opposing players to step on the line pre-maturely and cause violations, that is, until the refs caught on to his shenanigans. He was benched by some KJ coach when the NBA greats came to the Araneta, much to the chagrin of just about anybody who loved basketball. Claimes Cisco skipped practice to hang out with the NBA guys.... If I remember correctly, they were Clyde Frazier, Geoff Petrie, some Randy Smith, some guy named Curtis Perry who blocked Guidaben's jump shot big time. Yup, Billly Robinson...from Mariwasa and then 7-Up! Quote Link to comment
sliderule Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 How about those notorious players naman who would hear it from the Araneta crowd whenever they touched the ball ? The bearded Ricky Palou, Luke Dacula (eerie howls would emanate from the bleachers whenever he touched the ball) and Nonoy Dalman (who had the misfortune of having a surname that sounded like Galman when Ninoy's death was still fresh in our minds). And my all-time favorite - Alejo "Ponky" Alolor! Quote Link to comment
storm Posted September 16, 2005 Author Share Posted September 16, 2005 Lahat naman tayo rito ay matatalas ang memory. Tiyak ko kahit sa Tour of Luzon at Tour ng Pilipinas marami rin tayong alam. Gaya ng sino ang runner-up ni Jesus Garcia nang manalo siya sa pagbabalik ng Tour of Luzon noong 1972? Quote Link to comment

Ang kilala ko lang ay sina Modesto Bonzo at si Rimarim... Quote Link to comment
storm Posted September 16, 2005 Author Share Posted September 16, 2005 Hahaha! Hokey ba? Actually 1973 pala nanalo si Jesus Garcia Jr. Pare yung naging runner-up ay muntik sanang nanalo noon kaya lang team captain niya si Jess Garcia. A few seconds lang ang lamang ni Jess Garcia sa kanya. Cesar Catambay name niya. 1974 nanalo si Teoderico Rimarim at runner-up ulit si Catambay. Samson Etrata won in 1975, Modesto Bonzo in 1976, Manuel Reynante in 1977. Hindi ko matandaan yung 78 pero nung 79 ay si Paquito Rivas ang nanalo. Quote Link to comment
jt2003 Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Paquito Rivas used to be known as the "King of the Mountains." Basta sa akyatan, panalo. Pareng Storm, you forgot Jose Sumalde. It's sad that we don't have a Tour anymore. During the 70s, it was the Tour of Luzon. During the 80s and 90s, it was the Tour of the Philippines. As for the present day, it's Tour No More.

I think Sumalde was the team manager of the Bicol Squad. Sumalde was back to back champion in 1963-64. Quote Link to comment

Anyway, with their resiliency under the punishing Philippine summer heat, do you think any of our cyclists then, granted they're provided modernized equipment, could compete in the Tour de France? Kapus pa rin siguro... Yung front page (top portion) ng Manila Times dati puros yung illustrations ng mga cyclists to report on was leading the race! Palagay ko hindi mahilig sa MICAA/PBA/Tour of Luzon si kumareng augustmoon.... augustmoon...miss ka na namin sa thread na ito ! Quote Link to comment

Our cyclists train in tne roughest of terrains (potholes, uneven roads, hot weather, etc.), in very much the same way the long distance runners of Africa do. The Africans produce world champions. Why can't we? Quote Link to comment
