Pacquiao vs. Marques: A Prediction
Dubbed as “The Unfinished Businessâ€, the Pacqiao – Marquez bout will continue on March 16th. Once again, all Filipinos around the world will reunite for this big event. I don’t know what power Manny Pacquiao has that everytime he goes to the ring, we forget our problems until the fight ends.
But there’s a gut feel in me that Manny Pacquiao will lose this time, unless he knocks out Marquez. Somehow, I sense that there’s an “over-confident†side on Manny that may cause him to be careless. In this fight, Maquez is the underdog.
GMA 7 is once again very proud to announce that they will air the fight. But I know and I am sure that they are not after the “free fight for kapuso†but after the ROI they will get from advertisers. Once again, I am sure that commercials in between rounds will be longer than the round itself, just like the Pacquiao – Morales and Pacquiao – Barrera. F them. They should effin stop it. It doesn’t effin work. They don’t have to air it LIVE, They just have to minimize effin commercials. Air commercials after every two rounds will be just fair for the viewers. As long as it doesn’t use twice the time.
On the other side, I am certain that many politicians have booked their flights already for this event. Have they scheduled a seminar in Vegas on this date? Or there may be an Economic Conference they will attend and coincidentally, it’s Manny’s fight. Disclaimer: This is just an opinion with no basis.
Then after the fight, the next faces you’ll see on your TV screens are the faces of the Arroyos, Lito Atienze, Chavit Singson and some other politicians pretending they are Congratulating Manny but in fact, they just want to be seen by the people. It’s like “Hey, I’m close to Manny, close din tayo ha?†They are parasites using Manny for some attention. They must stop. And to the media, please stop interviewing them after the fight. They just make a suppose-to-be-the-best-show suck.
And oh, I almost forget. Just in case you’ll be looking for other politicians during the fight, maybe for a Senator or a Congressman, just hang out in Rockwell or SM cinemas. You’ll surely find them there. But don’t disturb them on that day alright? Respect their time. It’s a time for themselves and for their families. Set an appointment the other day.
On very disappointing (GMA and ABS-CBN) coverages of Pacquiao’s fights
Here’s a post that has been in the pipe line for a long time. We have done a lot of editing to lighten up the originally tense and pissed-off context of this post about the surprisingly lame coverage of local TV networks of ultra-hyped Pacquiao fights. Please read on.
Sunday (October 7, 2007 Philippines) The most awaited make-or-break Pacquiao-Barerra fight for the Super Featherweight title.
Manny Pacquiao is one of the best fighters in the history of boxing (that’s for sure). He’s won amazing fights and he’s a hero to many Filipinos. Yes, he deserves all his successes in his career and his personal life.
A senseless comment about a sexy mother
I was browsing through this blog’s most popular posts when I read my hubby’s post about Sexy Filipinas, (yeah, i just read this blog now, I rarely had time to do anything else than work stuff)
The comment about Sexy Mom really got my blood boiling! I think this so-called ‘decent filipino woman’ did not even bother to check out Dine’s site. She would not see a thing in there that would degrade the Filipina. It’s a blog about a mother, a wife, a woman who feels sexy. There is nothing wrong about feeling sexy. Sam who’s just 2 years old has learned to call me sexy.
100% Uptime
Whooa. After more than 2 weeks. I was awake all night long.
If I were a millionaire
What would you if you were a millionaire? Well, I am talking about Philippine Pesos millionaire. What would you do if you won 3-5 million pesos in a lottery or a game show or maybe from inheritance? Just thinking about it is so overwhelming. But here is what I’ll do if I were a multi-millionaire like George Lindemann Jr. For me, being a millionaire means I’ll have a lot of opportunities to help others. I can help my family and relatives better their livelihood. I can help my Baranggay in their projects. I can also help our Church in their charitable works. I would like to help my favorite charity Gawad Kalinga in their aim to build houses for the poor. I’ll buy my own house. I will invest my money in stocks and bonds. I’ll put up my own business, I would probably be in the food business. Take up culinary arts. I’ll save some for my kids education. I’ll save some for my retirement. I’ll save some for a little traveling adventure. Whew, that’s a lot of ‘I will’ and ‘I would’s. Most of all, I will thank God for trusting me with this sum of money, I will thank God for this wonderful opportunity to help myself and others.
