kaya siguro di mabenta ang football sa mga pinoy eh kasi... nasanay tayo sa basketball.. na high scoring
at sobrang nasanay na tayo iskor lang ang tinitingan... eh di na natin naiintindihan ang sport mismo... it becomes a game of numbers rather than a game of players on the field... or court...
kaya narealize ko rin, nakakabadtrip yung mga taong iskor lang habol nung NBA Finals.. kabadtrip pag may magtetext ng update ng score tapos tatanongin ko "sino naka-iskor? ano FG percentage niya? pano siya naka-iskor?" pero syempre dahil iskor lang ang tinetext.. imahinasyon ko na lang ang gumagana... AND IT IS NOT THE FREAKING SPORT!
kaya I see no hope for Filipinos to develop a passion for football the same way other countries have... dahil ang importante sa atin ay iskor... at sa football.. the score doesn't say much... kung numero lang naman importante sa atin... mag-stock market na lang tayo!
yes I am pissed off.. pero siguro kasi bitter ako dahil mas gusto ng pinoy ang basketball keysa football... and basketball is a sport of tall people... which filipinos aren't... the dutch in general are suited for basketball because they're median height is considerably tall... and their passion sport is football... yeah sure its not bad to wish to be tall... but it just adds to the things that we try to become but obviously aren't... which prevents us in loving ourselves... and in turn loving our country...
oo, because of basketball we can't love our country... because we want to be something else... we see what we're lacking... and not what we have
so really... its not an issue of which sport should filipinos love... but why filipinos can't love their country because they love something which they obviously aren't
its sad... and I rarely see hope for anything
...now looking at the current state of our country, can you?

hahahahahha. omg. phone call inspired blog post, i guess. :))
Oo nga e, single digits lang ang mga score kahit sa championships and stuff. :))
At mas mahilig tayo sa Ragnarok Online tsaka Final Fantasy (five-digit HP and damage) kesa Paper Mario. =)
at sanay tayo na double o triple digit ang mga pinag-ga-gastusan natin... oh wait.. sa amerika single digit kadalasan ang pinag-gagastusan so scratch my argument
