" Mark and Me "

Name:           Mark  a.k.a. (The Marks Man)

                Height:          189 centimeters

                                 Weight:          79 kilograms

                                               Team:             TSAIYO

                                                         Position:         Center, Power forward

                                                                     Credits:           MVP, 2 time mythical five

                                                                              Strength:         Rebounding and Penetration


                          Mark is the person who really likes to play basketball. He's versatile, friendly, funny and smart. He has been playing with Tsaiyo for a long time. Tsaiyo takes care of him, nurtures him and guides him. In return he did the same to his team. The marks man is capable of playing both defense and offense. As a matter of fact he's one of the basketball players in Bangkok that I admired the most. He's mentally alert during the game and he doesn't give up without a fight.

                          When I was playing with Tsaiyo Mark was a rookie during that time. One of my teammate introduced me to him. We spoke to each other and we did a lot of good conversations. It was quite fun actually. One thing I cannot forget is that, I promised him something. I don't know if he can still remember it. But that promise is one of the reason why I'm still playing basketball. His arrival in Tsaiyo helped the team a lot, from an intensive defense to an excellent offense. As the time goes by, we started playing and developed some bonding together. When were practicing I already noticed his remarkable skills and I told myself that this guy can be a star player and perhaps an MVP someday. We always play head to head because my position and his position are quite similar. I guarded him, he guarded me. It was really a good practiced for me though. And to tell you honestly he was not that easy to guard with. He has full of talents and great skills. Playing with him was a great honor. As a matter of fact I keep on reminiscing those days.


                          Mark's determination and commitment are intense and tough. What I can see from him right now, is that he will play in the championship again and this time he'll be the season MVP. His experiences, skills and talents are already matured. To make this story short, this is his time. Just keep the faith and always remember that everything is possible. Good luck and May the force be with you and your family.

        I'm piss off.............   I'm piss off.............    I'm piss off.............      I'm piss off.............      I'm piss off.............  


               Please forgive my dreadful behaviour today.

               Somebody stole my work.

              And transfer it to the other site.

              Then booooooooooooong.

              What really pisses me off is that, I know the person who is involved to it.

              I thought he was a friend.   

              I respected him, congratulated him and acknowledged him.

              That's why i'm gonna ask him this questions..............

              What's your problem dude?

              Did I do anything stuuuupyyd?

              If I did, I didn't mean it or them.

              But what you did was unethical and pathetic.

              And really pisses me off.

              But its all alright... I forgive you.

              And I'm very thankful to the person who saved the day.

              He's the man! And that's what you called professionalism.

              If you have some questions to any of my articles,
 
              Just post your big Q here.

              And I'll do my best to response to your query.

              Or..... you can live me alone and let me do my thingi.

              But...... if you'll disturb me or cross me again.

              This is the only words that will come out to my mouth......................

              " I'm sorry,.... I'm not buying anything stupid right now. "

Filipinos in Bangkok opened its campaign of the 8th season “ Pinoy Basketball Tournament ” Saturday afternoon at St. John International School. The opening ceremony was overwhelming and the Filipino singers were incredible.The gym was packed of Filipinos. There were lots of Filipino foods and snacks. Children were enjoying as if basketball was there number one sports. In fact some of the children were asking their parents if they can borrow a basketball because they want to play as well.

 
Meanwhile the opening games were astonishing. The first game was the game between Tsaiyo  and Repapips. The match was ended into overtime from slim 18-17 margin in the first quarter, 32-29 in second, 48-44 in third and 62-62 in the fourth. But in the overtime Tsaiyo enhanced its offense and made an eight zero run. Tsaiyo won the game.

               

             
   
Mark and the number 13 of Tsaiyo topscored for the Tsaiyo team with 16 points output while last year’s tournament MVP Rex Lavador and Lito had an identical 11 points.

           

 
Repapips was led by Mark with 24 points while PJ and Panggoy scored 13 points each. King and RC combined for 12 points.


In the second game, fast-paced action between Siam Pinoy and Berks. Siam Pinoy took control of the game from first quarter until the end of the game.

 
Led by Jun and Sunny, Berks launched a balance attack in the early minutes of the game but Siam Pinoy bounced by putting a premium on full court man-to-man defense. The ploy worked as Berks managed to get in a measly 8 points in the quarter courtesy of Sunny and Jun.
The inside-outside combo of Yoyo and Aaron, who delivered three 3-point shots, proved to be unstoppable as they got away with 6 and 11 points, respectively, to give Siam Pinoy a very good lead at halftime.


Mean while in the third game, speedy and tower of power action between NKPJ and Yanhee. NKPJ started with fast playing game but Yanhee wasn’t surprised. In fact they outrun the NKBJ buy their speed and talents. Yanhee seized the game. 

The organizers of this tournament expressed his gratitude to the 8 teams seeing action in the tournament this year and to all the Filipinos who came over during the opening ceremony.
