Just Another Game

Or so the DOJ says.

“Accordingly, having been born on February 9, 1985, of a Filipino mother makes Gabriel Daniel Norwood, a Filipino citizen under Sec. 1(2) of Article 3 of the 1973 Constitution which declares as citizens of the Philippines those whose fathers or mothers are citizens of the Philippines at the time of their birth,” he said.

My opinion? After making him play in an Olympic qualifying tournament as a Pinoy a few months back, this was the only way to go. After settling on Devance by default in a very lean 2007 PBA draft, Norwood may very well be the franchise player Welcoat is looking for.

For the PBA’s sake (and their own) though, I hope the Welcoat management makes an extra effort to surround him with all the support he needs. I’d sure hate to see that 4-position versatility go to waste.

A fitting way to end their stint on ABC5.

With a few days left before Air21 feels how it is to step on the court for the PBA Finals, Ginebra fans everywhere can only cringe. The team’s last few games against the Express haven’t really turned out the way they would want them to.

Ginebra may well be facing the only team that can keep up with the fast, furious, fearless, and whoever F they want to throw out there. Though it’s obvious who I want to win, I’ve also learned to appreciate a good series when I see one.

My only wish? For Alex Crisano and Homer Se to do their respective WWE impressions. Kidding aside, I just want to see some high scoring basketball games. The whole defense wins championships thing is overrated.

On a more serious note, does anyone know where I can get tickets?
