Cebu Sports Blog » Can we teach our children Harmony through Sports?
Yesterday’s article by sports editor Mike Limpag was like a Lionel Messi kick: it was direct, straight, razor-sharp. The biggest losers in this controversy between the Cebu Football Association (CFA) and PAREF-Springdale? The children. They’re innocent. They just want to play. Here are some questions: Was CFA correct to forfeit Springdale? When, according to Springdale parents whom I spoke to, … [Link]

Cebu Sports Blog » Rafa vs. Novak: 7th time unlucky?
The Swiss lost to the Spaniard who’ll face the Serb who defeated the Scot. Confusing? That’s the “4S” (iPhone 4S, if you were to ask my daughter Jana) who comprised the men’s semifinalists of the Australian Open. The Spaniard, Rafael Nadal, bested his lifelong nemesis, the Swiss maestro, Roger Federer. In tonight’s final, he’ll face the Serb, Novak Djokovic. Those … [Link]
Cebu Sports Blog » 7 points on Novak’s 7th straight win over Rafa
(Getty Images) I hope you watched the ultra-marathon tennis battle last Sunday night. Seven minutes short of six hours, Novak Djokovic won for the seventh consecutive time against Rafael Nadal. “7th time unlucky?” I asked two days ago. What a premonition. What a Gladiator-like battle. Here are seven points…. 1) AGGRESSOR WINS. One of my dad Bunny’s favorite lines is … [Link]
Cebu Sports Blog » CERC Party
Our group, the Cebu Executive Runners Club (CERC), held a victory and thanksgiving party two nights ago at my house. After the success and hard-work behind the Cebu City Marathon, which CERC organized, it was time to relax. We started with a Holy Mass officiated by Rev. Fr. Renel Cabag of the OAD. Then, it was the all-out eating of … [Link]
Cebu Sports Blog » Fantastic Four clash at the Australian Open
The last time Mr. Federer met Mr. Nadal in Melbourne was in 2009. “God, it’s killing me,” Federer said after losing 9-7 in the fifth set Final, tears of pain rolling down his chiseled cheeks. Tonight, R & R square off again. Few rivalries, of any game or form of entertainment, have rivaled the one between the Spaniard and the … [Link]

Michael Pastrano Aldeguer and Bob Arum recently met. One of the top prospects that the chieftains of ALA Promotions and Top Rank discussed?

Want to witness history? Today? The Guinness World Record? Visit the Cebu City Sports Center. I did yesterday. What did I see? Thousands of students with their brain cells activated.

Cebu Sports Blog » Australian Open notes from Edwin Salazar
When we used to play tennis at the Casino Español prior to his departure for The Land Down Under, the forehand of Engr. Edwin Salazar was most feared. He’d grip the racket upside-down and spin that yellow ball from underneath. He was nicknamed “Cebu’s right-handed Rafa Nadal.” Edwin is now Australia-based, residing in Gold Coast City. The big news from … [Link]

Cebu Sports Blog » URCC Cebu 7: Bakbakan na!
MMA champ Eduard Folayang with Alvin Aguilar and Renault Lao (Photo: www.urccmma.com) If you think boxing is bloody, watch mixed martial arts (MMA).

Sure, boxing is noisy and full of energy—but you ought to see the Universal Reality Combat … [Link]

Cebu Sports Blog » Has MMA outkicked the sport of boxing?
The world of boxing is lucky. There’s Manny Pacquiao. Without him, who’d be the superstar? Other sports have plenty. There’s Lionel Messi, Usain Bolt, Novak Djokovic; there’s LBJ and KB; there’s Michael Phelps. Boxing? Take out our Pinoy pride and there’s no more Mike Tyson or Evander Holyfield. Wasn’t boxing centered on the heavyweights? Yes. It was. Yes, that’s the … [Link]

Cebu Sports Blog » Blessings for a CCM ‘sun’ day last Sunday
Thank you, Lord! When the rains deluged Cebu last Saturday night, we were worried. Rain is good. It usually is. But not during a major outdoor event like a marathon. But, thanks to His divine plan, the stormy weather stopped at 3 A.M. and the skies cleared (even from the scorching sun—perfect for the runners!) the entire day. Thanks to…. … [Link]
