D’s Side…

    After the loss from Athens Greece, from the 3-year commitment of NBA superstars, the trainings, and from the memorable journey in Beijing, the USA’s "Redeem Team" reclaimed the gold, got back on top of the world in the Seniors Basketball event at the Beijing Olympics.

    They have perfected the whole event with 8-0 standing. The last seven games that they have won where seem to be no challenge because they have an average a lead in 30-point win in every game but the last game has another story. The Spain who lost 37 points againts U.S.A. in their first meet shown their best and character in the finals. For me they have made the medal round againts U.S.A. an entertaining and a crucial one. During the 4th quarter in the game, the Spain trailed for only 2 points but Kobe Bryant who scored 20 points led the team to recover and build the lead from the close score.Another big contribution to their win was Dwyane Wade who scored 27 points and LeBron James 14 for the U.S.

    As we remembered the Americans failed to win a medal at the 2002 World Championships and received bronze at the 2004 Olympics and the 2006 World Championships, prompting an overhaul of USA Basketball. This was truly a redemption of the team that was once the best, was tested and came back to kick some ass on their way to the top.

As soon as I’ve finished taking the "Virtual Barbershop", I immediately created this post in my blog. This site was just passed on to me by a friend. At first I have doubts because I taught my friend is just playing with me and will try to scare me but the curiosity won’t let me not to try it. As I have tried the website, for me it was relaxing and educational. By the way follow the instructions carefully. Heheh..

    It was all heart that made the Brgy. Ginebra Kings named as champion in the Smart PBA Fiesta Conference 2008. Ginebra didn’t won that easy because even when they were 13-0 before they got to finals, Air 21 proved to them that they are a championship contender. The series got to a "do or die" situation, a 3-3 wins a piece. Ginebra has a lot of struggles during the series but the most crucial was when Helterbrand got injured in the Game 2 and Caguioa is not playing his 100% because of knee problems. But it was Menk, Alexander, Tubid and Artadi who shine in the remaining games. They’ve given their best and they have reap what they saw. For the Air 21, obviously it was a sad ending because they were ahead in the series 3-2 but they were outplayed by the crowd favorite Ginebra to forced a game 7 and win all the way.

    It was a very entertaining, crucial, dramatic and very physical series. As I can remember there was once that Valenzuela of Ginebra kicked out in the game due to flagrant fouls. After all that have happen they still have shown their sportsmanship as they shake hands after each game. In the awarding ceremony Menk and Tubid was named as the finals MVP. Congratulations Brgy. Ginebra Kings!

Its been a long time since I’ve stopped from playing online games. The reason was that I’ve prioritized my studies that time and lost the interest in playing. The last online game I’ve played was Tantra and for me it was good and I had a lot of fun that time.

Now I’m back but now playing CABAL. I’ve tried the CABAL Philippines but the servers are always full and I was not able to play so I shifted to CABAL-Extreme because the servers are not full and my brother and his friends are also playing there. The good things in Cabal-Exteme server is that it has international players, free2play and you can level-up fast. For people who wanna join just register @ http://www.cabal-extreme.com/index.php

To give you some idea of the game, here is the story:

"Long ago people’s greed led the CABAL to cleanse the land. Amidst the devastation, seven great masters of Force Power led the survivors to rebuild.

Now, almost a thousand years later, the CABAL is once again manipulating Evil; fostering the child that would be king to once again cleanse the land. It is up to you to face the invaders of Nevareth, and uncover the conspiracy behind it…"
