Futball!

Hindi ako mahilig sa sports pero sinusundan ko bawat laban ng Azkals. Unfortunately, kagabi, nawala na yung chance nila na makalusot sa FIFA qualifiers. But I think it's a good start. Nagbabasa-basa ako ng mga forums at blogs kanina, at napansin ko na hindi uncommon yung mga nay-sayers.

IMHO, mas magandang suportahan natin yung mga sports na hindi advantage yung strength at height, kasi sobrang lugi tayo doon. ASA ka namang malayo ang mararating natin sa basketball---pwede tayong maging magaling doon, I agree---but we can only go so far---we are limited by physical build. Hindi ka makakahanap ng pinoy na makakatalon na tulad ng mga NBA players (hindi counted yung 90%+ foreign blood ha =P)

Sa football, totoo, advantage ang mahahabang binti--pero hindi sa lahat ng pagkakataon. Merong mga pagkakataon na advantage yung pagiging maliit.

Pano naman sa boxing? advantage ang haba ng braso at lakas doon. ---PERO, hindi tulad ng ibang contact-sports, may weight divisions sa boxing. That's a big difference. If you don't believe me, try to arm-wrestle someone 10Kg heavier than you (whose only form of exercise is lifting utensils) (it doesn't matter if you exercise or not, btw)

After the game, the Kuwaiti football said that he's expecting the Azkals to be among the top ten in the next FIFA Qualifiers.

Personally--hindi naman sa wala akong tiwala sa skills nila-- to reach the top 10 within 4 years is too optimistic... top 20, pwede pa.
