My friend Yola and I were lucky to be seen during Game 1 of Season 67', the fight between the Archers and the Tamaraws! I was in black and she was in red-orange! Good timing! LOL! But we had fun! You can see me jumping at first...then after showing Captain Hook's points...we were seen again waving our pompoms. Hihi! ANIMO LASALLE!

A new UAAP season has just begun and it is time for the Archers again to defend the championship crown they have well-earned last year. This year we'll also miss the big contributions from guards TY Tang and Cholo Villanueva.

My post is late though because they already lost against the Eagles on their first game. But I don't feel bad though because anything can still happen...just like last year when the Eagles did win most of their games against the Archers...but it was the Archers who won the significant games. It was the time when 2 became greater than 3...and when 2 became greater than 14 (against UE's perfect 14-0 elimination record).

I miss the time when I was still studying in DLSU because the Animo spirit was very much alive in me. I was surrounded by people who were so much interested in the games that we always talked about it during breaktimes or even before or after classes. We also get to see the players in campus! Haha! I think we were like stalkers before. LOL. I also had easy access going to the Araneta Coliseum...thanks to the LRT/MRT line. I just need to hop on to Vito Cruz station...then hop out of EDSA then go to the MRT line and get off at Cubao station. Aaahhh..I miss those days. It was easy during those days because I was a regular at Taft Avenue. Now...it is kinda hard. LOL.

I also miss the players I got to love during my stay as a Lasallian. My ultimate fave was Mac Cardona! And I miss also the other players like Joseph Yeo and TY Tang. Huhu! I don't get to watch them in the PBA though (Tang will still be drafted though) because...I'm not into PBA. Kinda boring for me, or the feeling is not as lively as in the UAAP. No school spirit. Eventhough UAAP stars are already invading the PBA...UAAP is still diferent. Oh well.

I also miss the days when me and my fellow Archers would go to the South Gate in Araneta almost every after game to have our pictures taken with the players. Hihi!

I wish them all the best for this season. Hope they become Champions again! And hope I could watch another live game again! Yehey!!!!!!!! ANIMO LASALLE!!!! KEEP THE FAITH!!!!!!

CONGRATS TO THE ARCHERS! Champions uli!!!! Wala nang bawian yan mga frends!!! Itong ito na talaga!!!!! ANIMO LASALLE!!!!!!!

WOHOO!!!

Congrats kina Jvee Casio and Rico Maierhofer for being awarded a slot on the Mythical Five!!! Also congrats to Jvee (again!) and Cholo Villanueva for being named FINALS MVP!!!!! Wohoo!!!!!

64-63...that was one thrilling game and thank God DLSU won this game against UE!!!! Yehey! This time I was to able to watch it live when the Archers won...yehey!!! Me and my animo friends were sooooooo elated!!! Hahahahahaha!!

Wahahaha!! Kinabahan talaga kami dun..mantakin mo isa lang uli ang naging lamang...sino hindi aatakihin sa puso nun? Hay grabe...sana manalo na sa SUNDAY!!!! Isang game na lang...please!!!! Guide us LORD!!! ANIMO LORD!!!!

Good play by everybody..and most credits goes to Cholo Villanueva! Galing mo!!!

At least Chris Tiu can already rest...hehe! :)

ANIMO LASALLE! Beat UE!!! KEEP THE FAITH!!!

The rivalry between GREEN and BLUE was recently featured in the NY YORK TIMES. The fire has reached the East Coast already! Hehe! Here's the link:

http://www.nytimes.com/2007/09/23/sports/23rivalry.html?ex=1348200000&en=5818959aca2143a6&ei=5088&partner=rssnyt&emc=rss

But the thing is...the article seems to portray the Archers as "siga" while the Eagles as "good boys"...not really!! Oh well...can't blame the author though...all our players have "semi-kalbo" looks and some of them has tattoos (or only Walsham?)...oh well! It was just funny!

ANIMO LASALLE!!!!

My ANIMO LASALLE! Teddy Bear...and a box of Tongari Corn. It's endorsing it! LOL!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TY TANG!!!!



Good luck on the game on THURSDAY!!!!!

Last night was the part 2 of Ready 2 Rumble featuring the guys of Green Archer Radio and Halikinuin NU 107. And I texted a message (again! I sent Chris Tiu messages before to Halikinu...haha!)...but it was a neutral one. Just to pay respect to both teams. My 1st msg that was read was:

"I luv TY and Chris Tiu! Can't wait to see the best friends battle it out again on Thurs!"


And my second msg was:

"Hello Green Archer Radio and Halikinu guys! I want to ask, what do you think will be d most crucial move each team must make to win on Thurs?"

And it was answered by Olsen "Rah-Rah" Racela. Hehe! I was not able to reflect on his answer...probably because I was ecstatic that both of my msgs (again!) were read on air! Hihi! But I'll just wait their video post on Youtube! Thanks guys for reading my msgs!!!!

ANIMO LASALLE!!!!! Shucks...Thank you LORD!!!!! 70-69...finally we were able to beat the Eagles!!! What a game!!! Nakakakaba na naman as usual...but at least Casio fired up...Tang caught up in the hot hot race and Rico Maierhoffer was still in good form even with a painful ankle! Hope he doesn't force himself too much. May game pa!!!

Yahoo yahoo!!!! Sabi na eh...there's always hope!!! I don't know kung makakanood ulit ako..but thankful ao kahit papaano nakanood ako ng isang game versus UE. Basta manalo sila masaya ako!!! Yahoo!!!!!!!!

Take note: Nagkabanggaan ang best friends na sina TY Tang and Chris Tiu...lagot!!! LOL! I also like the contrast between TY and Salamat...gets???? Haha!!!

TWICE TO BEAT! TWICE TO BEAT! TWICE TO BEAT!!!!!!

84-92...UE won 14-0...argh! We could have broken that streak! Sayang na sayang talaga! The last 3.5 seconds of the 4th qtr was the most crucial one...the free throws by Casio could have won that. As Coach Franz said to PDI...of all people who could have missed...it was Casio. I don't want to blame him anymore. I know the pressure was too high.

And if I'm not mistaken with 1 second left...the Archers had possesion of the ball and Rico Maierhoffer could have shot it directly to the basket...but the ball sis not reach his hands. Sigh. It must have been fate that played on them. UE was meant to get the 14-0 streak.

Anyways...I still love the Archers!!! They are still in Third place and anything can still happen. The games are not over yet!!!

ANIMO LASALLE!!!

Tomorrow...Sept. 13 the Archer will be facing the unbeatable gang of the UE RED WARRIORS. After a loss from the Eagles...beating this unbeatable squad would really really push us to the top. No more need for a losing game now since the Eagles are tied with them already. I know they can pull off something good tomorrow. I always believed in them. ANIMO LASALLE!!!

Wish I will really be able to witness it live tomorrow!!!!

Wohoooo!!!

Chris Tiu...galit galit muna tayo. (LOLS!!!!!!!! ^_^)

Jvee Casio...you did well...sayang talaga. Please fire up for the whole game. Hehe!

Ticketnet...magbenta naman kayo ng maraming tickets!!! Wag naman puro general ad!

DLSAA...magprovide naman din kayo for alumni. Noong student pa ako hirap na hirap na kami makakuha...tapos alumni na kami hirap pa din. Wawa naman kami...huhu!

Humanda kayo...manonood din kami ulit ng live!!! Sa patron pa (ahhhh kelan kaya ulit yun...LOLS.)

Today, the Green Archers will face the Ateneo Blue Eagles after the one-year suspension...also after being defeated by 20 points by the UE Red Warriors.

They will come back STRONG! SUPER! I know it! Sadly I won't be able to watch it live. But I'll watch tentatively on my TV screen...GO LASALLE!!!!!!!!!!

BEAT ATENEO...ANIMO LASALLE!!!!

I'll try harder to get tickets next time!!!! Arrrrrrrgggggggghhhhh!!!!

Season 70 of the UAAP officially starts tomorrow!!! And that only means one thing...the GREEN ARCHERS will be back...stronger!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SUPER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL! I'll be cheering for them again! Yahoo! I have to practice the cheers again! LOL!

D-L-S-U Archers! D-L-S-U Archers!

Go Lasalle! Go go Lasalle! Go Lasalle! Go go Lasalle!

Go Lasalle! Go Lasalle! Go Lasalle Lasalle Lasalle!

Rektikano keena keena! Rektikano keena keena! Rektikano rektikan rektikan rah! (mahaba eh!)

Gambatte Green Archers! Shoot them all down!

Ehem, they're missing our Green Archers...tsk tsk tsk!

We shall return! LOL! :)

The new UAAP is just around the corner, and things will never be the same again. Less excitement, less selling of tickets, less spaces to be filled in Araneta, less players to watch out for, and a whole lot more other LESS!

Cge next season na lang uli! Harhar!

Mahn...the UAAP board did not accept the Green Archers LOA from the league. I don't know what will happen but things are getting longer than expected. They keep on telling that they will come up with a final decision soon. But let's see... maybe there will be no decision until July? Duh they have to decide before the start of the new season!

Of course I'm against the suspension if ever that happens. I feel sad about it. UAAP will not be as exciting as it was before. Bah! But anyway whatever they may say...as long it is just, I'll accept it.

Good luck to the Green Archers!

God did provide me with the time just top greet everyone a very...

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

You see my internet card already ran out but look...I was still able to post! Yahoo! This was truly a Christmas miracle!

Thank you LORD for the ALL THE BLESSINGS you have given me...may I still deserve to receive more blessings in the coming years!

MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!!

*Amidst the unsolved controversy shadowing the team...I still hope for the best for this team...hopefully things needed to be done will be implemented...okay even with what happened between the All-Star game match between ADMU and DLSU. That really got dirty in the middle of the 2nd game. Shouldn't have happened though. Oh well...

BELATED HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MAC-MAC CARDONA!!!!!! (November 13, 2005)
