Congratulations to DLSU for winning the UAAP Season 70 Basketball Championship. Better luck next year for the UE Warriors. The funny thing was they were 14-0 (win-loss) in the eliminations and then went down to 0-2 during the finals. They didn't even win a single game! It's utterly ridiculous. Talk about bad timing. Waaaayy bad.
And, congratulations, too to Mr. Pacquiao for winning over Marco Antonio Barrera in their rematch. And thank you Ms. Kyla for singing Lupang Hinirang right.
It was a great day for the Philippine sports yesterday. Kept me busy.

Scalper's Delight Indeed
Turned out University of the East isn't unbeatable after all. It was a heartbreaking loss yesterday for the UE Warriors when De La Salle University ended their 14-0 winning streak. UE lost by 1 point. One.
The thing with DLSU is, they win when it matters most. I hope that they'd finish UE come Sunday because I'm losing patience everytime I had to look for damn tickets. Everytime I thought I was early, I thought wrong. I mean, I think people start to line up as early as 5am and by releasing time, the line is several kilometers long. I am not that patient. I start to look for scalpers who wouldn't try to sell me tickets 10x its price. During the ADMU-DLSU game last week, my boss had no choice but to pay P700 for an upper B ticket. At first the scalper priced it at P1,500. I almost dropped dead. I was so tempted to sell my ticket, too. But it's fun watching the games live, damn it. The scalper looked like a DLSU student. Maybe he thought Levi (my boss) was from the Ateneo because he was wearing his blue cap and he wasn't wearing anything green.
P1,500 for a P70 ticket. Fran-frickin-tastic.
