Gary David, kailangan ka ng Pinas

Photo from: http://www.interaksyon.com/

Itong picture na 'to. Ito mismo ang pwedeng magpabalik-tanaw kung bakit maraming bumilib at nagalit sa kanya. Syempre, hindi maipagkakailang karamihan ng may ayaw sa kanya ay mga fans ng San-Mig Coffee ngayon.

Marahil, kung ikaw ay isang long-time San-Mig fan na kagaya ko. Kapag nabanggit ang pangalang Gary David; ito ang maaalala mo > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7Em-d9KXJY

Yung pagtakbo n'ya sa court habang tinititigan ang mga kamay n'ya na para bang nagpapakita ng pagka-arogante (sa kabilang banda). At yung pag-harap at pag-sigaw n'ya sa crowd sa larong 'yon. 'Yung mga three-point shots n'ya na hinabol ka sa pagtulog mo sa gabing iyon. Marahil maging dahilan kumbakit ayaw mo sa kanya.

Sa madaling salita; tinalo ka n'ya, tinalo n'ya ko, tinalo n'ya ang team ko sa isang asdfghjkl na pangyayari.

Aminin mo, gusto mo s'yang ihawin nung mga panahong yon.

Siguro matagal pa bago mo makalimutan o pwede ring hindi na.

Pero eto na siya ngayon. Player ng pambansang koponan ng Pilipinas. Susuportahan mo ba siya?.

Ako?, Oo, bakit ko isusumpa yung taong nagpa-bigo sa sinusuportahan kong team noon. Bakit ko s'ya isusumpa habang-buhay e nakabawi naman tayo ng isang magandang championship pagkatapos no'n.

Oo, sinusuportahan ko na s'ya suot ang uniporme ng Pilipinas. Kahit naging dahilan s'ya kung bakit nawalan ako ng ganang kumain ng Adobo noong tinalo n'ya ang B-Meg team ko.

'Yung huling tatlong game ng Gilas na invisible s'ya? Isa ako sa mga nagtu-tweet ng: "Nasa'n na yung nagliliyab na mga kamay mo?"

At dumating yung kagabi. Napa-isip ako. Yung dating binu-boo ng mga tao. Ngayon, buong arena na ang sumisigaw ng pangalan niya.

Then he finally drained a three-point-shot.

Dumating ang three-point shot n'ya na para bang isang game-winner kahit hindi.

Ano?, Kailangan pa ba natin s'yang madaliin?. Kailangan pa ba nating magtanong at magduda sa abilidad nitong taong to?.

Aaminin ko; isa ako sa mga nagduda. Pero kaya kong baguhin ang isip ko at sabihing; "Sensya na, nainip lang ako". Nainip lang ako na pumasok ang mga jump-shots n'ya.

Ang sarap siguro ng pakiramdam n'ya habang naririnig n'ya ang libo-libong taong naghihintay na pagbigyan n'ya ang inaasam nila.

Ang sarap din siguro kung si James Yap o si Mark Caguioa o si Arwind Santos siya.

Pero narito ako, naging hater n'ya. At nagsasabing: Gary David, Kailangan ka ng Pinas.

Thanks for Reading.
Go Gilas Pilipinas!

James Yap and the haters

Photo from Wikipedia

Kapag sinabi kong "King James", dalawa lang 'yan, it's either Lebron James o kaya si James Yap. Kapag "Big Game James" naman, isa lang 'yan, ibig sabihin nagsisigawan na ang mga tao sa loob ng Araneta Coliseum dahil tinatawag na ng event-barker 'yung pangalan at jersey-number ng binansagang "The man with a million moves".

Sino siya?. 'Yung magaling mag-basketball, 'yung may semi-original 3 point shot capture. 'yung isa sa mga clutch-players ng liga n'ya at yung may classical one-hand shot.

Ang daming fans nito, pero nahahati 'yun sa dalawa:

'Yung mga 'supporters' na nanonood ng live kada game nila, 'yung mga puma-follow sa account n'yang  @jcy18 sa Twitter, 'yung hundred thousand na facebook-users na nag-like ng page n'ya sa facebook. 'yung mga ate, kuya, bading at mga tatay na pumapalakpak kapag nakakagawa s'ya ng heroic moment. 

At syempre ang mga 'haters' na hindi naniniwalang magaling 'tong taong to, 'yung mga hindi papayag kapag sinabi kong si James Yap ang most popular player sa PBA, 'yung nagsasabing sumikat lang 'yan dahil kay Kris Aquino, at 'yung mga naniniwalang overrated na player lang 'tong si idol.

Minsan ko na din sinabing si James nga ang parang mukha ngayon ng PBA. Pero maniniwala ka naman diba kapag sasabihin ko naman na si Kobe Bryant ang main-face ng NBA?. Kasi tignan mo 'yung Smart-Ultimate-All-Star-Weekend na pinag-tapat ang PBA at NBA players, hindi ba't si James ang huling inintroduce na player para sa PBA at pinag-intro pa s'ya sa team n'ya na para bang representative s'ya ng PBA tapos si Kobe naman para sa NBA na para ding sinasabing si James Yap ang Kobe Bryant ng Pinas?. haha.

Kahit ano namang sabihin, marami pa ding aalma kapag sinabi n'yong s'ya ang pinaka-sikat. Kahit may ebidensya e, patay malisya pa din ang mga valedictorian kung makapag-isip. Kapag kasi all-star voting ay ang laki ng gap ng lamang n'ya sa susunod na bar ng susunod na player. Kaya lang hindi pa rin satisfied ang ilan na madami ang fans ni idol. Pinapatay daw nila ang tv kapag iniintroduce na ang starting 5 ng Purefoods/ B-Meg/ San Mig Coffee. Kaya 'di nila alam na kapag  babanggitin pa lang ang: "and guard number eighteen"  ay sobrang daming tao ang maglalabas ng carbon dioxide maka-cheer lang sa kanya.

At overrated lang ba 'tong two-time-mvp na 'to?.

Kung overrated s'ya, ang tanga naman ng Smart Gilas kung bakit lagi s'yang nasa first choices para sa National-team.

Kung overrated 'tong mamang 'to, bakit kelangan pagpalitin ni Chot Reyes sina Ranidel De Ocampo, Larry Fonacier, Jared Dillinger, Ryan Reyes at Kelly Williams para magbantay sa kanya. 'Diba, kung di naman magaling, si Pamboy Raymundo lang, sapat na dapat?.

Kung overrated 'tong si idol, ang engot naman ng mga reporters sa tv, writer ng mga newspapers, NIKE at ng mga ibang sponsors n'ya, para sayangin yung panahon nila para pagtuunan ng pansin ang pipityugin lang pala na player.

Kung overrated 'tong taong to, e di over-acted lang pala ang mga commentators at analyst para purihin s'ya. Tapos kada hawak n'ya ng bola ay makakarinig ka ng mga katagang: "What a move", "ohh, that's a tough shot" at iba pa..... At narinig n'yo na din ba 'to: "James Yap, step-back, CHALLENGED shot....... No problem,,,, NO PROBLEM!!!". Aha?

Reality bytes!, hindi pa rin ba magaling kapag sandamukal na awards ang meron ka kagaya nito?:

1x UAAP Most Valuable Player (2003)
1x UAAP Mythical First Team (2003)
2x PBL Mythical First Team (2003, 2004)

At kung may magsasabing undeserved daw ang kanyang dalawang season-mvp, dahil naimpluwensyahan lang daw ni Ms. Kris Aquino. Ha? ang galing ah. 6-time s'yang naging MVP sa pro-career n'ya, 1 time naman na Best Player of the Conference, kahit i-cancel out ko yung sinasabing dalawa, 5/2 pa rin ang ratio dre. kung igigiit pa rin ang sablay na obserbasyon, i-kwento mo na lang sa pagong :D.

Anyway, ano pa bang magagawa natin?, HATErs nga e diba. Pero 'wag silang magagalit sa'kin dahil sa article na 'to ha. Magalit sila kay Coach Tim Cone kase over-saluted s'ya kay idol maski si Coach Ryan Gregorio kahit hindi n'ya na player si JCY....... Magalit din sila kina Jason Webb, Rado Dimalibot, Quinito Henson, TJ Manotoc at Magoo Marjon kasi tinatawag nilang one of the best s'ya.... Naku, disgrace 'yun sa standard at damdamin ng mga haters..... Magalit din sila kay Bianca Gonzales, Charles Tiu at iba pang celebrity kasi nagagalingan daw sila kay James.

At haters magalit din kayo kay Mico Halili, kasi s'ya ang nagbansag sa kanya na 'the man with a million moves'...... Magalit din kayo kay Doug Kramer, kasi sinabi n'yang si James daw ang "FACE OF THE LEAGUE" tapos sabi pa ni Mico na: "I Agree, I Agree" do'n sa isang episode ng FTW...... Magalit na din kayo sa ring....... At magalit kayo kay Coach Erik Spoelstra ng Miami Heat , kasi tinawag n'ya si James Yap na FANTASTIC!!!.

'Yun lang :D

Salamat sa pagbabasa.

Welcome 'THE FINALS' again

Over 21,000 fans inside the Smart Araneta Coliseum. Game 7 of B-Meg vs Talk n' Text Finals in previous conference

And I just can't recover instantly from that Friday night's game's turn of events. The images and the scenes are still in my imagination, including that Peter June Simon's game-winning-put-back that gave the Big Dome a magnitude 7.6 in Richter-scale, I have those in my dreams.

But they hadn't earned it in an easy way, not to the never-say-die team Barangay Ginebra. Until the last minutes of that action-packed-ballgame, they give us fans a lot of goosebumps and chills in our body. A salute may give, that game was worth the watch.

Then B-meg grabbed the last ticket of the Governor's Cup Finals, and they are back again to the familiar sight, to the familiar atmosphere, to the familiar sound that seems like just a while ago. Welcome to the Finals again.

Losing Joe Devance in a conference and JC Intal in half-way, with Peter June Simon missed also some games, It wasn't that easy for B-Meg to get back on it.

While the young Rain or Shine started the conference strong with that big-body-builded import Jamelle Cornley and Paul Lee, B-Meg hasn't beat them in this conference so far. 

Who has the advantage in this match-up?

Yes, B-Meg in fans but Painters in the fresh legs. Yes, B-Meg in experience but Rain or Shine in youthness. Yes, B-Meg in height but ROS in weight.

The series starts tonight, Game number one. Will it be a repeat for B-meg or a new gift for Rain or Shine.

Thanks for Reading.

Manila Clasico; Do or Die edition!

So it is with this two's respective teams, the game tonight is on set at 6:45pm and it is a Do or Die Game version of Manila Clasico.

The one that named a two-time-mvp and the other that seems to be the new mvp, these two superstars will battle in the same floor for the last ticket of PBA Governor's Cup Finals.

The momentum is probably on the side of Ginebra, by winning that wednesday game against Talk n' Text, their mindsets for the title is still on running mode, while B-Meg in the other hand has the advantage in numbers. They've won the six in their last eight games versus Ginebra.

Battle of the fans, Battle of the TOP-TWO superstars in the leauge (as I guest). It is a winner takes all game!. 

Thanks for Reading!

A long journey until the gift, for B-Meg

21,046 PBA fans have witnessed an example of a high-classic ball game last night. And it's no wonder that the majority of those numbers are B-Meg's devotee. 

An overtime in a basketball game was really rare to see unless the two teams are evenly matched. But an overtime in a Game seven of a basketball Finals-series is endangered species!. I mean, it's only happens a time in a lifetime.

It has been so long since the Purefoods franchise tasted a PBA crown. And after that, so much obstacle past by, so much injuries players have been taken, so much trades happened  just to take home another one.

I still remember that conference when Kerby, Pingris, and Reavis suffering injuries at the same time and James have to play a game with a mask. That conference when the team failed to make on a Playoffs and when coach Ryan Gregorio leaved the team. There are also time that B-Meg struggling to find a stable import and have to change the picked one with another in the middle of the tournament.

Those are the moments that could courage you to break-off the team, that will make you say "lilipat na 'ko ng team na susuportahan".

And then Tim Cone comes.

It's really not easy for a team to adjust in a new system, but with coach Tim Cone?, Nah!. After loosing some early games in his debut conference on B-Meg. Wearing his signature "Kurbata" every game, he proves that he is a better coach by giving us an eight-game winning-streak. take note, "He's debut on the team". And now he give us a championship.

It's B-meg's Ninth championships, four of those are a "Philippine Cup" title. At last, my team now got an import, a tough one and a better one. The 23 year old Denzel Bowles was really the key to success to the team. His last biggest free throws to tie the ball game can explains to you how and why.

It's a long journey until the gift for B-Meg.

That heart-breaking lost to Powerade last Conference that helped B-Meg matured.

That flaming hands of Gary David that over-nightmared us B-meg fans in sleep.

Those in-balance big trades.

That Do or die Easter Sunday against Meralco Bolts that edgely put B-Meg fall again in their early steps on playoffs

That peace-campaign of the Legendary Pamboy Raymundo.

That most-wanted series against Barangay Ginebra, that finally happened.

That crowd that could've been break the record of 2007's  season Fiesta Conference Finals in attendance if only Big-Dome give a chance to enter to those who failed to get a ticket for the game.

That over Twenty-one thousand crowd that yells every time B-Meg scores.

That mini-heart attack when Ali Peek scores a home-run from Jimmy Alapag's outlet pass that put Talk n' Text on top by six points with just two minutes remaining in the ball game.

That moment when Ali missed his second free throw that gives a chance for B-Meg to tie.

And that feeling when Denzel Bowles free throws sinking-in one by one at that crucial 1.2 final seconds of the game.

I may not have the rights, but so many already said this. "This is the best Finals-series ever". And yes indeed, I Agreed!

This Finals-series has too much to remember. For sure, it'll be a topic even after two weeks. For sure, it'll be on newspapers. For sure, Denzel will have a better spot in the NBA. 

Parang dati lang, gusto pa nating ibalik na lang sa PUREFOODS yung team's name dahil we thought na malas, but not. 

Those times when my team is like in a dark hole ay para bang PAM-PAGANA lang, mas masarap nga namang lasapin ang panalo kapag pinaghirapan mong kunin.

After after all, Denzel Bowles will still unstopabowles. And his name will remains in our (fans) heart. 

James Yap now will be a two time Two-time MVP. (Finals MVP twice & Season MVP twice)

The game has ended, and I still believe that this is not the end of the BMeg Planet dahil madadagdagan pa ang populasyon for sure. We can also call it a Happy Ending for this conference and let's just wait to a new beginning in the up-coming one. Congratulations B-Meg!, And thank you Denzel Bowles!.

Thanks for Reading =)

Why do referees always get the blame

Last night, B-Meg won and get the first ticket to advance to the PBA Commissioner's cup Finals. B-Meg won the first two games of the best of five series then Ginebra take home the "W" of Game 3.

The series has been much awaited by many, not just by the fans of both teams but other basketball enthusiast in the country. The match-up between the said two teams are really rare to happen in a series. 

After the game, trending topics has been trend. Sports analyst take their notes, Fan debates. Players give comment, update tweets, post Statuses and get some reactions. Some players of the loosing team get the blame as well as the referees officiating the game.

Why do referees always get the blame?. Because they called the should be non-call?, Whistled at the wrong time?, improper decision making?. Whatever reason,  it always ended to this; The fans of the winning team will agrees to the calls and the other side fans will do the opposite of it.

But how can we say that a game is fixed and managed by a biased officiating?. Let's just break it down (this is just my opinion).

* Did both teams get an equal ratio of the number of fouls that they've taken? (No, the winner team always have the least number of fouls, that is always happened in a game more often)

* Did the players make their shot into the basket?

(ibig kong sabihin, kung yung mga open opportunities ba e nagagamit nila para maka-score? kung hindi, isa din yun sa dahilan kung bakit lamang ang kalaban. Hindi sila makahabol)

At higit sa lahat:

*Did the replay of the fouls shows the contact clearly? 

( Napakaraming replay ng foul kagabi, lahat yun klarong-klaro. kung hindi ka kumbinsado eto ang replay ng buong game, panoorin mo >> http://pinoy-ako.info/more-videos/63186-pba-b-meg-derby-ace-llamados-vs-brgy-ginebra-gin-kings-semis-replay-video-17-april-2012.html )

Why blame the referees?, Why not blame Coach Siot?, Why not blame Jackson Vroman who out-rebounded by Marc Pingris who is just 6"5, Why not the player who just out focused on the game in the fourth quarter?. 

At matanong ko lang, which possession/strategy has the ability to get a foul? The one who focuses in inside scoring or the one who loves the three point shooting?. Take a time, make a review, and give an answer!

Thanks for reading

Congratulations B-Meg Llamados :D

For some: Sometimes the realities hurt because you want that all favor is just for you. And the problem if you are a die-hard fan, you just cannot resist the truth because you don't want your support to be disregard. And with that you just keep on insisting the blame to the referees because you do not have anything else to finger-point.

B-Meg: See you on Easter Sunday!

"See you on Easter Sunday", that are the words that I want to say after the do or die game of B-Meg Llamados vs Meralco Bolts in the afternoon of this day. 

My team is now again in the edge of getting swept in a Quarter Finals in two consecutive conferences. Records will be detailed again, commentators are guessing who's ahead, Devoted fans are praying and hoping for a win, People pressuring their wants. But the game is not for them to decide. Or not for us to decide.

If the team lose, fans also lose. How long we will have to wait for a series between Ginebra and B-Meg?. What words to turn back when other team's fans will mock against our team when they lose tonight?. But whatever things have to be ready or to think of, we should remember that the fight is still far from over.

What team never loses?. Think of how many wins B-Meg had against Meralco, Think of how many Playoffs the franchise's have been through than Meralco and how many Do or Die game that the team' survived. Yes, Statistics are just numbers but it says a lot.

Look on the bright side!

We will say the first phrase later!.

B-Meg Planet's population, decreased?

As I observed the last two games among B-Meg and Ginebra. Ginebra seemed to have the more fans going out of their house to watch live in the venue.

We heard the Ginebra crowd chanting last Friday their team's name four times in that ball game. Compared to the game last conference which the crowd split in half in terms of cheering. I mean half, hating-hati I saw Jay-Jay Helterbrand get booed by B-Meg fans in their game last conference, but did not happen in the last two games of this two most popular teams in the league.

I think the reason is Kerby. I think He is one player who has a big fan base in the league. And after leaving B-Meg to wear the Gin-Kings jersey, his fans will also transfer to the other side to support him. It could be, right?

He received 27,790 votes for up-coming all-star game He is the fifth player who has the highest votes. And some of that 27,790 votes came from ex B-Meg devotee. Don't they?

Kinapos ang team namin,

Eto ang aking Status bago magsimula ang Game, wala na palang follow-through status pagkatapos ng game.

WEW! nerve-breaking game? no, a heart breaking game instead. I Do not know what feelings has been expressed during the crucial time of the game. Just very shock! in the end. Kahit naman ang mga tao sa Big Dome from patron seats hanggang sa taas nakatayo at mukhang hindi makapaniwala sa mga nasaksihan nila. "Mico Halili also noted it".

Biglang tahimik ang mundo na B-Meg Planet.. masakit isipin na magbibitaw ulit kaming mga fans na "Good luck sa next conference" ewan, pero yung game na 'to talaga ang pinakamahirap na talo na kelangang i-move on naming mga fan.

Nagbago ang lahat pati na ang momentum pagkatapos ng base-ball pass ng isang veteran-point guard, well, kaya nga crucial time eh kahit mga player na-tetense din sa mga ganong pangyayari. ang Lakers nga na- 4-0. Sa Basketball nga kasi "Where Amazing Happens".

Nadinig lahat ng pangalangin ng mga haters ng team ko!. pero hindi naman dininig ang mga panalangin naming mga fans na manalo sila. buhay nga naman. pero sa mga oras na 'to susundin ko ang mga payo ng haters. Sa Panaginip ko na lang iisipin na panalo sila ngayong gabi!

History to eh, panahon na ang nagtakda. At kung papipiliin ako ng bet kung sino ang magtsa-CHAMPION ngayong Philippine Cup, hindi na 'ko lalayo, doon na ako sa tumalo sa amin. Kung malaki ang tyansang manalo ng mga desedido mas malaki ang sa "MAS DESEDIDO".

Well, Sometimes the underdog is the winning-est.
Thanks for Reading!

Pag ako sinipag lang magsulat, gagawin kong topic yang mga haters ng team namin na sobra kung maka-husga!

B-Meg's number of devotee is getting bigger

Marami naman sigurong nakapuna na padami na ng padami ang mga B-Meg fans na lumalabas ng kanilang mga bahay at nanonood ng live at siguro eh may mga bagong admirer din na sumasali sa B-Meg Planet. Kita naman sa bilang ng mga nanood kahapon na umabot pa sa 10,019 na nangyari pa sa isang TUESDAY game oo Martes hindi Biyernes o Linggo.

May nakatayo pa sa Upper A

Ang dami pang nag-tweet at nagsasabing B-Meg ang bagong crowd favorite ngayon. pero bakit nga ba nila nasabi 'yon?

May dalawang dahilan ako:

Una, ang taas ng gate attendance kahapon kahit hindi Sunday's game eh lumagpas pa ng 10,000 mark!. at sabi pa nga ni Sir Quinito eh baka nga 11,000 na kung in-update nila ulit yon nung 2nd half.

Pangalawa, matagal na silang crowd favorite sunod sa Ginebra. (pero naniniwala pa din naman akong mas madami pa din ang Ginebra fans) yun lang, hindi naman masyadong malayo sa number of fans ng B-Meg.

Galit na galit ang Ginebra fan sa page nila sa facebook, NO WAY daw. edi ok hindi naman pinapanalo ng B-Meg ang mga game para dumami ang mga spectators nila at makakuha sa venue ng maraming crowd dahil gusto lang naman nila eh yung All-Filipino CROWN. Ang tao naman ang kusang gugusto at pipili kung sino ang mas magandang suportahan at para sa'kin mas maganda pa din suportahan ang mga humble.

Ilan sa mga matitinding banat ng Ginebra fan eh ganito:

nagsimula daw kay Joe Devance, bakit ano ba sabi ni JDV? diba ganito lang

Sabi lang naman niya na mas malakas ang cheer ng B-Meg fans don sa game nila against Ginebra, bakit niya nasabi? halata naman ah. Isang beses ko lang nga nadinig ang GI-NEB-RA don sa game na yon eh nung nag-rally sila sa 3rd quarter pero mas madami ang sigaw sa B-Meg kasi matagal na nasa kanila ang momentum. Even Jason Webb said "si Jayjay na boo-boo" (happened when he's taking free-throws in the ending time) sa mga hindi satisfied panoodin niyo ulet.

At aminado pa yung isang fan ni Jayson castro oh :))

palibhasa lame ngayon ang mga game ng team nila at yung 4 na huling laro ng B-Meg eh sobrang nakaka hyperventilate sa sobrang excitement. Tinawag pa nga ni Mico Halili na "Nerve-Breaking game" yung laban ng Llamados sa ROS eh.

Pero para don talaga sa mga kung makapang-giit eh wagas at sa mga fan ng ibang team diyan na palaging may pagkamuhi sa team namin, bah, kayo din ang mapapa-aga kapag inintindi niyo ang pagkagalit.
basta kami sa B-Meg planet calm lang hehehe.
Salamat sa Pagbabasa

Two upcoming Sunday will be great

Two upcoming Sunday will be a spectacular day for a Sports fan in the Philippines. (Nov. 13 & Nov. 20)

The first Sunday that will come is the day that Manny Pacquiao will face up Juan Manuel Marquez for their trilogy showdown.

Everyone expect Manny to win a knockout to Marquez, Favors is on his hand.

And that is also the time that commercial of Boysen, Alaxan, Ginebra San Miguel, Bmeg Premium etc. will be aired over and over again. Like Christmas this is also a rare moment cause it only happens twice a year.

The second Sunday is for me and for all the Bmeg and Ginebra fans in this oval world.

You know, every time this two team will have a match, it should have been the main event and it should have been Sunday.

And every time Ginebra and Bmeg will face one another is seems like it's a playoff's match

Big crowd yelling for their bet, and the Stadium should have an attendance in the General Admission seats.

Yeah right this is the two most Popular team in the PBA.

Done. I will just have to wait at the two Sunday to come.
Thanks for Reading!

B-meg's Chances

If BMEG win tonight over Air21 they will go to SEMIS


If they lost in Air 21 later and Meralco will win in their last game "Goodbye Bmeg"


And if Bmeg win tonight and Meralco win their last game It's still BMEG will go to the semis


And IF Bmeg lost at Air21 and Meralco lost to their last game pasok pa rin ang Bmeg!

James Yap most Popular player sa PBA

the Man with a Million Moves
PBA version of KING JAMES
Big Game James
Big Daddy James
Boy Thunder (with Paul Artadi as Kid Lightning)

wEw bago ko sinimulang itype to ay nagiisip ako ng magandang Title?, pumasok sa isip ko ang "Bakit sikat si James Yap" at "James Yap mukha ng PBA?" pero naisip ko, ayos na din naman 'tong title na ginamit ko.

Kung aagree ang lahat ng basketball fans sa Pilipinas na si James Yap ay most popular player, mahahati ang mga dahilan sa dalawa. Kapag ikaw ay Purefoods/Bmeg fan at James Yap fan ang sasabihin mo ay "Sikat siya dahil magaling" at kung ikaw naman ay fan ng ibang mga teams ang sasabihin mo ay "Sikat yan dahil kay Kris". Sinasabi nila yan dahil kahit saang poll na nagtatanong kung "Sino ang Player Mo?" ang laging lumalabas ay ang bar ni James ang pinakamataas.

James Yap

Pero ako meron din mga sariling dahilan kung bakit gusto ng mga tao si James Yap.

Una. Good looking, kita naman sa picture diba?

Pangalawa. Humble, bakit nasabing humble? kasi pag nakakatira siya ng buzzer beater/clutch shots/ at 3points hindi niya pinagyayabang. ang expression lang niya ay natural lang, hindi kagaya nung iba na sumisigaw pa. nagtatambling at tinatrashtalk pa ang kalaban.

Pangatlo. ay dahil franchise player siya ng Purefoods isa sa may pinakamaraming supporters na team sa PBA.

Pangapat. Pure Pinoy siya. syempre mas masarap nga namang suportahan ang isang purong pinoy at walang halong dayuhan sa dugo diba? kung mapapansin mo nga eh lahat ng mga star sa PBA ngayon ay puro Fil-Am at ang iba pa nga eh hindi man lang marunong magsalita ng tagalog at meron pa ngang player na peke ang papeles pero nakakalaro pa din at siya ay si..... secret. pero ang team niya ay nalipad :D

At sa mga nagsasabing si James Yap ay isa lamang overrated na player sa PBA ay marahil kayo ay insecure lang sa kanya dahil ang Idol niyo ay hindi Most Popular Player at hindi pa nagiging MVP.

Reality Bites! masasabi mo bang overrated ang isang player kung dalawang beses na siyang naging MVP? masasabi mo bang bobo maglaro ang isang player na kahit tatlo ang injuries ay umaaverage pa din ng 20pts pataas?. at kung hindi siya magaling ay bakit siya napabilang sa Team Pilipinas dati at ngayon ay hinihiram ng Smart Gilas para makasama sa international games nila.

At bakit siya magiging mukha ng PBA kung hindi siya magaling?. at kung bakit ko nasasabing siya ang mukha ng PBA ay dahil sa mga dahilan na ito.

-Palagi siya ang ginagawang cover ng Sports Magazine ng PBA. 

-Kapag commercial siya ang huling pinapakita.

-Sa Intro Video ng PBA na pinapalabas bago magsimula ang isang game nila siya yung nasa hulihan na pinapakita

-Sa Calendar ng PBA siya din ang nasa pinakahuling page.

-At pati ang PBAlive 2011 na computer game ay siya din ang Icon.


-At meron pang isa, malamang ay napanood niyo din yung SMART Ultimate All Star Weekend? kita naman sa banner ng PBA All-Star siya yung may malaking picture na nasa middle AT siya din ang huling pinakilala sa line-up ng PBA AT siya din ang ininterview na parang nagsasabing siya yung representative ng PBA tapos sa NBA eh si Kobe. 

At dahil nga Magaling ay Sikat at kapag sikat madaming endorser at commercial sige nga. pipiliin ba ng NIKE ang endorser kung pipityugin ang player? hindi diba? oh yun yon mga dudes.

Kung hindi ka pa rin satisfied sa mga nasabi ko ay manuod ka ng game nila kahit yung start lang, yung pinapakilala pa lang ang starting five, hintayin mong tawagin ang Jersey Number at Pangalan niya Laksan mo ang Volume ng TV at makinig sa posibleng maririnig.
