Philippines will not send a basketball team to the 18th Asian Games

July 27, 2018

Here’s the official statement from the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas (SBP);

SBP did not state any reason other than “to allow our National team and our organization to regroup, prepare for the process of appealing the FIBA Disciplinary Panel..”

In this ESPN 5 article, PBA commissioner Willie Marcial said that the Rain or Shine (RoS) management remains willing to send its team to the Asian Games.

If PBA players are not available, why not just send selection of college players which is what the Philippines have been doing before they started sending pros in 1990.

Ginebra Gin Kings takes Game 1 of the 2018 PBA Commissioner’s Cup Finals

July 27, 2018

A great win for the Gin Kings.

But just like what the commentators said.. whether you win by 1 or by 100 points, this will only be counted as just one win.

I’m pretty sure San Miguel Beermen will bounce back on Game 2, which will be this Sunday, July 29 in Araneta.

Justin Brownlee is the best player of the game with 42 points, 7 rebounds and 9 assists!

July 26, 2018

Queen of all media, Kris Aquino recenly revealed in an IG post that she received an invite from her United States-based agent Chris Lee for the premiere of ā€˜Crazy Rich Asiansā€™ on Aug. 7. The premiere will be held at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood, California.

Kris Aquino plays an undisclosed role in the film.

If there was ever a time you had doubts about the future because of the burdens of today- i hope this post will inspire you. I was at practically back to zero when i auditioned for this film March 25, 2017. Sumugal na dahil ang pakiramdam po walang mawawala… Na shock dahil June 14, 2017 nag start mag shooting na… Bawal pa rin mag reveal nung role ko (waiting for the go signal of @wbpictures when we can release some pictures of me in costume kasi pag nakita na yung gawa ni @michael5inco medyo giveaway na po) pero para po sa karangalan nating mga Pinoy- napakalaking ā€œboostā€ ito! I have been greatly blessed because my US based agent @agentchrislee sent me the official invitation & i am excited to see @kevinkwanbooks again- kailangan na lang po ng permission ng isang super big food brand dahil may 3 day endorsement shoot for them na matatamaan. #kapitlang #lovelovelove šŸ’›

Raymund cannot come to the musical gala, since he has (two) prior commitments to attend to.
