    1. priority nila kasi ang basketball kahit dehado ang mga pinoy sa tangkad at galing ng iba. ang dami pa namang sports na akma sa lakas natin na pwedeng pagtuunan ng pansin at pondo.

    1. try mo igoogle kung bakit ang US na ang nirerepresent nya. dahil sa kawalan ng support from the Sports Commission and rampant corruption kaya cya napilitang pumunta ng US pra ipursue ang sport nya.

    2. Atey, dati nyang nirerepresent ang Pinas kaso wla yatang suporta kaya nagpuntang US. Jusko puro basketball lang alam natin jan, wla namng panalo. ✌️

    3. Wait, you sounded like di mo kilala si Wesley So. I get what you mean pero di yun yung issue.

    4. well that's what you think. if you're aware of the current events or into sports way back 2007, his name muat ring a bell to you. that he became thw youngest GM in the country, beating the record of Mark Paragua who's also now based in the US. We don't claim him just because he got recognized at present times but because we know his journey. You say such things because you don't know anything about him.

    1. He loves chess. Pumunta sya kung saan sya aalagaan at makakapagcompete ng maayos. Anong mali doon? Magiging stagnant talent nya dito, such a waste if di cya magttrain abroad

      Delete
    2. Kung ako rin naman mas irerepresent ko ang bansa kung saan nakatanggap ako ng support at nakarecognize sa talent ko. Wag kang panationalistic jan.

    3. Wag kang mag-alala 6:53 hindi ka rin niya gusto, mas malala pa, ni hindi ka nga niya kilala! #DaWho 💁‍♀️💁‍♀️

    4. Syempre, public figure sya so malamang ang public may opinion about him kung gusto nila sya or hindi. GAMITIN ANG UTAK, WAG PURO EMOSYON. Masyado kang butthurt.

  14. well magaling nga siya sa chess ng buhay hehe

  15. sana one day bumalik siya sa Pinas para tumulong sa mga batang nangangailangan din ng suporta gaya niya dati

  16. Ofcourse irerepresent nya US, he is already a US citizen, he used to represent Ph pero sobrang kulang ng funding ng govt natin para sa mga ganyan klaseng sports. He use to compete na ang funding nya is from their own pockets. And when they were offered a greencard 3-5 yrs ago, ofcourse tatanggapin nila yun, let's just be happy for him.

    And yes, I know him personally.

  17. Panay na lang kasi basketball at football sinusuportahan ng govt. Lagi naman tayo kulelat don. Never tayong mananalo sa basketball. Tapos ngayon claim natin to . Kita mo na si Yulo sa Japan din nag train kaya nanalo. Basketball pa more!

    2. Excuse me BUT FOOTBALL DON'T DESERVE THE ATTENTION OF FILIPINOS BECAUSE WHEN AZKALS WERE STARTING TO GET THE GAME NOTICED HERE, ALL OF YOU "ELITE FOOTBALL ENTHUSIASTS" WERE CONSTANTLY MOCKING AND BASHING NEWBIE FANS, CALLING THEM NAMES. YOU FEEL SO ENTITLED BECAUSE YOU GOT TO KNOW THE SPORT FIRST SO NOW THAT FILIPINOS ARE BACK TO IGNORING FOOTBALL AGAIN, I SAY IT SERVES YOU RIGHT AND I HOPE THAT SPORT WILL NEVER GAIN POPULARITY IN THIS COUNTRY EVER AGAIN! There, I said it!
