uaap + hoops sub cult

IF THIS ISN'T SOME SORT OF BASKETBALL record, then I don't know what is...

Sunday. Aug 6. Ateneo vs FEU

THE FACTS:

• Score: Ateneo leads 51-42 with more than 6 minutes left in the game
• Ateneo PG Emman Monfort was dribbling the ball down court when he was fouled by Terrence Romeo
• Romeo gets a technical for "pointing an accusing finger at the ref"
  
• Monfort makes both free throws
• FEU head coach Bert Flores gets pissed with the call... hence another effin T
• Monfort makes one more free throw. Score to 54-42
  
• Ball possession still goes to Ateneo... and Kirk Long hits a three pt. shot. 57-42
• At the exact moment, FEU's Escoto was caught with unsportsmanlike foul on Greg Slaughter.
  
• FEU gets another effin T and Slaughter makes both free throws. 59-42
• Of course Ateneo gets ball possession once more... and Long hits another killa 3 [get this: from the same sweet spot] 62-42
  

THE "RECORD" RESULT

• 11 points in 19 seconds
• 11 points in what seemed like one possession
  

Only in the Pines. Only in the UAAP. Only by the Arrreneow Blue Eagles! [of course all the non-Blue Eagles fans now think that all the games are rigged in favor of Ateneo]

this referee call can only happen in Philippine hoops [the UAAP in particular]...

So a player gets called a violation or a foul by the referee.

The player reacts to it.

He gets a reprimand from the referee.

The announcer says "WARNING ON [NAME OF PLAYER] FOR RESENTMENT OF A CALL."

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA... only in my country dude!

blue eagle + hoops + uaap sub cult

I'm ready for the upcoming UAAP season. With or without Ryan Buenafe [who is currently residing in rumor hell], we can do this shit.

slam magazine has a pinoy edition!

I used to buy this magazine before because the articles were written in baller, and not sportswriter language. In other words, it had street/hiphop cred. And then I stopped buying the shit because it became so expensive... like 500++ bucks for a magazine? Noooo way!

But then as I was surfing other blogs, I learned that SLAM magazine now has a Philippine edition... same foreign articles + a bonus of articles about Pinoy ballers. Cool diba! I hope it's affordable.

Bago pa dumating ang triangle offense at kung ano-ano pang complicated plays dito sa Pinas, isa lang ang play na alam nating lahat... The "THIS IS YOU, THIS IS YOU..." play na pinasikat nitong taong 'to.
