== Welcome To The Ncaa Tourney==

[asinine_fish]

Welcome to the new edition of NCAA Tourney thread.

We congratulate the San Beda Red Lions for a threepeat performance of the NCAA 84 season. A day after winning the coveted/elite league championship, I can't help but shake my head for all the bashings and positive congratulatory remarks. Bashers who were like maggots in a dung vindicating themselves of the lost championship...

As expected, the Red Lions self proclaimed DYNASTHREE has been achieved...I also salute the gallant stand of JRU for putting up an all heart-out games, hoping to end their 36 years drought without winning the championship that went for naught. You have nothing to be ashamed of.

Certainly, this season is one of the most exciting season ever since the departure of Ateneo and La Salle has long been forgotten.The rivalry of San Beda and Letran made it more exciting than ever. Final week of the elimination causes the organizers to go back to their rule book to determine who will be in the playoff, as 4 teams JRU, MIT, LETRAN and SCC were tied for 2 to 5 spot..

Thanks wholly for all the teams this season,especially :

The emergence of Mapua Cardinals who beat the Red Lions in the 2nd rd and playoff that almost put them on the brink of eliminations.

Kudos to Knights of Letran, who according to their master tactician Coach Louie Alas before the start of the season that he is not expecting his team to be in the final four.

And oh, the once mighty San Sebastian Golden Stags who I still believed the team to reckon with next year even the rumored departure of Ballesteros and Viray. Great season.

Let's not overlook the rebuilding teams of UPHDS and CSB Blazers. For Blazers who played as spoilers with a successful upset victory over Mapua that altered the already chaotic standings.

To Bay Cristobal's Altas, I know it's not fun watching your team loses, but hey! next season will be different and I wish you all the luck..

For PCU Dolphins..you will be miss...

and to the rumored entry of EAC Generals..welcome to NCAA..the most elite and glamorous league...

Before I end, again may I remind you folks that we are entitled to our own opinion and one should never take things personally because this is just a cyberspace. I hope we will continue to realize that no matter what school we came from , we should be of equal level .

Respect the opinion of others and ignore the unsolicited responses....
lets hope to see a better postings and be thankful for the informations we received and read.

Bakit ba hindi matanggap ng mga taga NCAA na UAAP na ang bida ngayon?

Hindi ko sinasabi na hindi okei ang NCAA ah, pero talaga namang mas sikat ang UAAP eh. Mas makapangyarihan, mas maraming sponsors, mas maraming audience, mas influencial ang mga alumni.

Para sa mga taga NCAA, bakit ba hindi niyo matanggap na mas okei ang UAAP na NCAA? NCAA is old news, UAAP na ang bida ngayon.

Kapag may game, mas maraming interesado manood ng UAAP kesa sa NCAA. Ang interesado lang manood ng NCAA mga studes ng member schools ng NCAA. Kung UAAP kahit mga non-UAAP o non-NCAA nanonood. Kahit nga mga taga NCAA nanonood ng UAAP eh. Pero bihira ang mga taga UAAP na nanonood ng NCAA. May mga bf/gf lang siguro sila na taga doon, in short napilitan

Bakit UAAP ang pinili ng Studio 23 na ma-air bago ang NCAA? Siyempre ang mga sponsors galing UAAP schools eh. Paano nangyari yun? Kitang kita naman na ang pinaka influencial people sa bansa natin karamihan eh nag aral sa UAAP schools. Ang ABS-CBN pagmamay ari ng mga galing Ateneo. O saan ka pa?

Observe niyo ah, ang mga pinaka respetadong schools nasa UAAP lahat. O walang kokontra. Fact yan. Wala namang NCAA schools na mas magaling sa UAAP schools eh. Lahat ng nasa UAAP mga universities, pero sa NCAA, kita mo parang chopsuey. And another thing, tignan mo naman ang mga board exams ratings, UAAP schools ang bida. Sa international surveys, lahat ng mga nakapasok from Philippines mga UAAP schools.

Siguro ang pinaka respetadong school lang sa NCAA is Benilde. Pinaka na yun ah, pero in UAAP standards below na below pa rin siya. Pero yun natitirang pitong paaralan, sobrang low standards. Kahit Beda hindi na maganda. Law nalang ang ipinagmamalaki nila. Yun iba wala na. Ang lakas ng pakiramdam ko na ginagamit lang nila ang NCAA para mag lure ng mas maraming estudayante na mag eenrol sa kanila. Siyempre ang mga uto uto na higschool students doon mag aaral, pero yun mga bright at may ambisyon sa buhay sa UAAP schools mag aaral. Totoo yan. Kahit sino pa tanungin mo.

Pagkatapos tignan mo ang UAAP versus NCAA crowd. Ang laki laki ng difference hitsura pa lang... langit at lupa ang pagkakaiba. Kahit sa mannerisms ang gestures alam mo na mas may breeding mga galing UAAP. Hindi sila sobrang balahura. Civilized kumbaga. Sa NCAA ano ba yan kapag natalo ang isang school sasabihin nila "suntukan nalang oh..." o diba napaka decent? Eto medyo malala pero totoo... sa UAAP alert sa personal hygiene ang mga audience, pero sa NCAA nakikita mo palang sa mga pictures sa diyaryo mukhang may tokpu na.

Sa mga nagsasabi na hindi gagaling mga UAAP athletes kung hindi dahil sa NCAA, aba eh bakit gusto nila lumipat sa UAAP after highschool? Simple... mas prestigious ang UAAP league. Ang mga athletes iniisip rin nila ang future nila. Walang future sa NCAA schools kapag doon ka graduate. At least kahit na basketball lang ang alam mo pero galing kang Lasalle makakahanap ka ng matino na trabaho.

Oo alam ko na sports ang pinag uusapan. Pero ano ba ang purpose ng school? Sports ba o education? Siguro nga kaya mas magaling ang mga NCAA athletes kasi they go to school para lang mag practice. Kita mo sa UST ang mga players hindi pinapalaro kapag may bagsak. Sa NCAA formality nalang ang enrollment pero sa totoo lang hindi naman nag aaral ng mabuti mga athletes diyan eh.

At huwag niyo sabihin na record breaking yun 20,000 audiences ninyo. Palibhasa mga esudyante niyo hindi naman kailangan mag aral masyado. Yun mga ibang taga Ateneo gusto manood ng game kasi kailangan nila mag aral kasi may upcoming exams. Hindi lang sa UAAP umiikot ang mundo ng UAAP schools... sa NCAA vice versa.

Okei fine ncaa is a major Philippine sports leage, pero palagay ko NCAA would always and forever be behind the shadow of UAAP. Kitang kita naman eh. Ang mga magagaling na potential players kayang kunin ng UAAP schools kasi sila ang may pera. Kaya nila kunin ang mga magagaling at kaya nilang palakasin ang teams nila. Ang mangyayari sa susunod ang mga UAAP rejects nalang ang maglalaro sa NCAA.

At the end of the day, sports lang yan. After graduation, hindi titignan ng employers kung ila ang championships ng schools niyo. Tignan niyo UP napaka olats ng team nila, pero mga graduates nila ang in demand. Same with other UAAP schools. Ang mga NCAA schools karamihan eh blue colar jobs ang napapasukan. Sad but true.

Kung hindi pa rin kayo convinced, tignan niyo nalang ang PEx... nauuna ang UAAP forums bago ang NCAA forums. Ang UAAP eh "UAAP GAMES" samantalang ang NCAA eh "NCAA Tourney"... kapag NBA ba NBA GAMES o NBA TOURNEY? Simple lang yan... UAAP na kasi talaga ang sikat. NCAA is second nalang, if not third, fourth, etc.

Tanggapin niyo na kasi... yan ang totoo. Kung tatanggapin niyo siya mas luluwang ang mga loob niyo. NCAA had it's moment of glory... UAAP na ang IN ngayon. Ang NCAA OK pa rin pero talagang UAAP na ang bida. NaWala nang kinang ng NCAA.

nagsayang pa nang panahon para lang sumulat ng walang kakwentakwentang bagay, OGAG talaga, akala naman nya may magbabasa ng sinulat nya.

[chellotte8]

^OT ang post nya dito.

In fairness, sa women's volleyball mas magaling ang mga taga-UAAP kesa sa mga taga-NCAA...

[asinine_fish]

Now that the NCAA 84 Basketball season is over, let's not forget that we still have some other sporting events ready for the second semester. I still believe that we should continue to support our school athletes for the coming events on Beach Volleyball, Table Tennis, Tae-Kwon-Do, Track and Field, etc...

friend ng lahat Mr theo78 will continue to update us and encourage everyone to support our team.

ZOooOOOooooOOm !

huh! ano nangyari sa lady stags???

[jpmalpass]

In my opinion, SSC-R at Letran lang ang nakakamatch sa teams ng UAAP kapag Volleyball ang pinaguusapan. Correct me if I'm wrong.

[AltarBoy^_^]

Nakalimutan mo kami sa CSB, mahuhusay mga Beach Volleyball players namin lalo na sa Nestea Beach Volleyball National Tourney.

[asinine_fish]

[asinine_fish]

[asinine_fish]

[asinine_fish]

[Rules of Court]

Lions Roar !

[IntramuraL]

malapit na bakbakan sa season 85. Palagay ko malakas ang San Sebastian, JRU and San Beda. Darkhorse ang Blazers and Letran. Mapua medyo siguro mag jell sa 2nd round.

[woot99]

The Beach volleyball competition is coming up on January 30-Feb15 and will be held at Island Cove Resort in Cavite. It is said to be covered by Studio 23.

Football kicked-off last saturday with wins from CSB(S) and LSGH(J) against Mapua(S and J teams), San Beda(J) winning against Letran(J)

Other events slated for the rest of the season are lawn tennis, which would start on January 25 at the Rizal Memorial Tennis Courts, table tennis on January 31, and athletics on February 24, 25, and 27 at the Rizal Memorial Sports Complex.

Good luck to all the teams!
