      Thank you, Sir.
      LOL at fair-weather fan.
      I consider myself an all-weather fan, if there is one.

          Welcome.. welcome.. welcome..

          Now that you mentioned SPORTS MAGAZINE, it brings back a lot of fond memories.
          While most kids are reading Combatron in Funny Comics, I was busy reading new and old issues of the SPORTS MAGAZINE cover to cove.
          Then i would engage my gramps/ dad/ uncle in hour long discussions who is the better slasher? Skywalker vs Mr Excitement vs the young Aerial Voyager? why did Ferdinand Ravena won the ROY over Vergel? was there a better shooter than Allan? who would be the MVP among the A's Abarrientos, Agustin or Asaytono? if El presidente was younger by 10 years will he be good enough for the NBA? what if Ricardo Brown played longer? why do we limit the height of imports, one is 6'3" and the other 6'5" I think?
          cool PBA monickers? from the Fortune Cookie to the Tapal King, El Presidente, Hector the Director, the Captain, Tower of Power, Skywalker, Triggerman, the Destroyer, Flying A,... to Captain Marbel, etc. etc.

It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone..." - Timo Cruz (Coach Carter)

              thanks for the welcome, i was so addicted to the PBA then that everytime there was a photo of a player of my favorite team accompanying the game news i would cut it and paste in my high school notebook ha ha, sportscasters of those generation are really good at giving monickers, like cantada,pengson,picson,henson. all you mentioned i am very well aware of as long as my memory doesnt fail me he he. i hope my magazine collections of those years are still in tact in my relative's house. gotta get those when i have time

                          The Philippines are slowly regaining the spotlight that once belonged to them: kings of Asian basketball. With the dynamic PBA and scouting and improvement programs, the National Team is reviving past success. Talk RP Basketball in our Philippines/PBA forum!

                          • Hello everyone from the Philippines. I'm Gustavo Woltmann and I'm staying here in Panama for vacation. I really love basketball in the Philippines when I was younger. My favorite team is Ginebra and I know until now they are still active and kicking the new teams out there. I read all this information on some magazine publishers. See yah all around and hope to have more friends here.
