Ok, this takes the cake as my favorite email of the year so far
Since the influx of emails from personalities such as Jamal Sampson, Rajko Toroman, and a comment from Chot Reyes these past few days, people have been emailing me left and right about messages for these people, including a lot of suggestions for Coach To

nice piece @fire...
i'm just wondering why this came so late (after Tommy M. & TJ's piece?)..

i've been busy with field work for the day job, and this week my laptop's monitor got busted. i haven't had the opportunity to just sit down and write.
nice piece of article. i think patricia hizon's tweet was taken way out of context and blown way out of proportion (by Guiao haters, maybe?). I understand coach Guiao is not for everyone, but you gotta admit, he's a pretty darn good motivator.
yeah, patricia's tweet was taken way out of context. she said so herself.
So how can you explain the 4 flagrant fouls in just a short period of time?
I hope you know the big difference between flagrant fouls in first half of the game and the flagrant fouls commited at the second half of the game.
Hint: Intention and Frustration

yeng guiao apologists?
Any comment re decision that Gilas games are non-bearing?

was patricia hizon present during BK practices? cause not all orders are done during game days...especially when you know that reporters are present in your dugout.
i am a fan of Gilas, but its not the reason why i am so pissed at what happened. if this happened to another PBA team, i will still be this pissed...but ofcourse, i dont think yeng guiao would order to hit the players of other teams because he has no motive to do so.

Jaemark, I agree with your post. I guess this is the reason why Smart Gilas plans to pull out of the PBA especially after Commissioner Barrios said that all future games of the nationals will be no-bearing.
I think it would have been better if Smart Gilas played like NCC -- a guest team but in contention for a PBA title. Remember how the NCC squad shamed the pro teams before and most of its players went on to become PBA Hall of Famers?

"JR Quinahan abused Rabeh Al-Husseini"
correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Rabeh still not with Gilas for that game against BK?

I agree with NeekoBoi. The instructions to play dirty won't be during the pre-game huddle where reporters are present. That may have happened during the practices. But one can only assume that.
I don't mind BK playing rough against Gilas. That's part of the game (as what Jawo fans would say). But, elbow on the face, "sahod", clothes-line, all in the 1st half? I don't know how most people would draw the line between dirty and rough man, but I say that's damn right dirty!
People would always quote that the international games are much rougher. And that's were semantics would come in. Yes, international games are rough, so to help the national team one team may get rough with them (to help them improve physically and mentally). But to play dirty would only mean risking injury to the national team players for no good reason.

cge tirahin nyo ng tirahin ang pba. remember that the balance of power between BAP and pretender-SBP as national basketball association is just and association away to tilt from one group to the other. before you know it, SBP already lost its juridical personality to speak for the philippine basketball. It's the return of the BAP... ha ha ha. Quo vadis, noli eala?
i say, SBP should be put in its proper place. why? long shot maybe, but if they make good the threat to pull out from the current conference, such gesture may not sit well with the san mig-dominated pba. whoola, pba can "unwittingly" support moves by BAP to wrest control of basketball association from SBP.
all BAP need to do is to intensify lobby efforts among POC members. the sometimes "politically" persuaded POC can drop SBP like a hot potato and shift its recognition to BAP. Goodbye SMART Gilas. Kagilagilalas.

masyado naman advance yun..i hope we don't go back to BAP days...I don't think it's the PBA naman ang tinitira dito..it's the action of 1 man, or 1 team (including the coach)..
I'm sure Coach Yeng is a winner, and there's fire in his style, and he motivates well, that's why I was backing him up when he was chosen as Team Pilipinas coach..but Jaemark, you must admit that iba talaga ang atmosphere nung game na yun, and I would'nt say that "it's just a pretty good speech"..it was caused by the series of events prior to that..and sadly, coach Yeng is partly to blame for that..hindi lang naging professional si Wynne to take things lightly and be responsible for himself..that's why, he's got to take majority of the blame..
