It’s incredibly embarassing to be filipino associated with any sport involved in the olympic games. Not even a bronze for any sport???? Just like our government and our social crab mentality of materialism WE are USELESS!!!!!USEEEEELESSSSSSS

As filipnos we are the bottom feeders of the faeces of the bacteria of the bateria eating faeces. All hail the athletes of the arm pit of asia!! wooohooo

Tama ka Denver, kasi akala ng mga namumuno na porke nasa magandang unibersidad ka ay magaling na. Meron naman hindi nakapag aaral, na mas magaling kapag e train ng mabuti, kaso yon na ang nakatatak sa utak ng mga ibang KOTS, university student is the best, huh. Isa pa, politika rin ang dahilan kung bakit kawawa ang mga atleta, dahil sa di tamang pagsuporta at sinamahan pa ng KORAPSYON na mas lalong nagpapahirap sa mga pinoy atlethes. Pag may nananalo naman, samahan pa ng pamumulitka. Kailan kaya makikita ang totoong kagalingan ng mga pinoy, lagi nalang bang ganito? Puro sarili ang iniisip, paano ang iba? Ang ibang pinoy na gustong magsikap para sa kaunlaran? Kung tama ang pamumuno ng Gobyerno, sigurado akong maganda ang resulta sa mga manlalarong pinoy, hindi lang sa larangan ng sports kundi sa lahat ng ASPEK. Sana naman makita na ng mga opisyal kung gaano nasasaktan ang mga taon bayan, ang paghihirap nan nararamdaman, sa puso at sa isip ng isang PILIPINO, nakatatak na ang maling SISTEMA ng pinoy government, lalong lalo na sa kabataan, SANA naman TAMA NA! MAAWA KANA! BAGUHIN NYO NA! TINGNAN ANG KINABUKASAN NG MGA MUNTING ANGHEL NA BUKAS AY MARARAMDAMAN ANG SAKIT, GUTOM, HIRAP, KUNG WALANG PAGBABAGO, KUNG WALANG KAHIHIYAN, ANG TAONG NAMAMALAKAD SA ATING GOBYERNO.

Pasensiya na sa isinulat kung ito, hindi lang sa sports ang nakikita kung kamalian, kundi ang kabuoan ng PHILIPPINE GOVERNMENT SYSTEM.

It is very sad to hear that the Philippines did not even get any single medal in Beijing Olympic. Don’t worry, this will happen again in the coming Olympics. Leave it to the corrupt Filipino politicians who does nothing but to bludge and slow down the Philippine economy. Most of these Philippine politicians ae only good in bickering and political propaganda. They are good at looking after themselves first, before the suffering Filipinos. For many years, these politicians have wasted the Filipino taxpayer’s money for doing nothing. Hey, wake-up, do something for millions of starving, unemployed, dying, exploited Filipinos! Many of these Filipinos who dreamt of better Philippines have already died. Philippines is far left behind now in their neighboring Asian countries. Because these Asian countries, their politicians have come into realization that they should serve their country above all things. Unlike in the Philippines, politicians don’t think globally. Most of their actions are very superficial, comparable to local TV drama-series wherein every episodes is all about conflict, problems, issues, blaming each other, instead of raising the issue of poverty, starvation, unemployments, mass exodus of Filipinos to work overseaes as cheap laborers, over-population and how to genuinely support the Philippine Athletes because Filipinos truly desearves not a big ZERO Medal in the Olympic Games, but a big celebration for acheiving many Gold medals. So please, Filipino Politicians, change your old ways and style-because it doesn’t work for your country!!!!

Obviously…hindi pa natin nagagawa ang ating “best” to win a gold medal sa olympic. Hindi rin ako makakapayag na sabihin na naipadala na natin ang the best natin sa pinakamalaking okasyon sa mundo. Hindi lang silver or bronze ang kaya nating pinoy. Mayroon pa tayong ibubuga. Ang kailangan natin ay tamang sistema sa pagpili ng coach at heads sa sports. Kailangan din ng seryosong suporta ng ating gobyerno sa kawawa nating mga atleta. Tamang strategy sa sports na alam natin na kaya nating ipanalo.

Ihalimbawa natin ang boksing. Pano mo makukuha ang pinaka magaling kung alam nilang gutom lang sila. Wala rin tayong tunay na sistema sa paghahanap ng tunay na makisig na manlalaro. Kung seryoso tayo…magdadaos tayo ng isang nationwide event na suportado ng gobyerno financialy at gagarantiya sa kinabukasan at pagkain ng pamilya ng mapipiling manlalaro. Hindi rin dapat isara ito sa mga estudyante ng mga prestisyosong unibersidad….kundi pangkalahatan. Magaaral man o hindi. Magsasaka man o mangingisda…mayaman man o mahirap.

Hindi ko rin masisi ang ating mga atleta…biktima lang sila ng mahihinang ulo ng namumuno sa atin.

Maaring masakit ang aking mga naisulat…pero kung iisipin mong mabuti…talaga nga bang hanggang dun lang ang kaya natin?

Sa ganang akin parang di ko matanggap na hangang ganun na nga lang tayo!

It is embarrassing to a country twice the size of Korea to have less competitors in the games than Korea has medals in only the first week of competition. The Philippines wastes all its money and efforts on sports it has no chance of even earning bids in, let alone competing for a medal. In this I refer to basketball and swimming. Boxing is another matter in that the good boxers all turn professional at an early age so they can feed their families. Amateur and professional boxing are 2 sports that look the same but are vastly different in training, scoring and philosophy. Manny Pacquiao could probably not win a medal in Olympic boxing unless he KOd his opponents in every fight. The country should concentrate efforts, money and training in sports small people can compete in without being at a distinct disadvantage. The smaller weight classes of wrestling, weightlifting and various martial arts are in mind here. Table tennis and badminton do not require large people to be competitive. Diving and gymnastics are sports tailor made for small people. When I think of Philippine basketball I am reminded that I read about a 6′4″ “behemoth” playing for a major college team. That “behemoth” would most likely be the smallest player on the court in any major college game in the US, Canada, China, Australia, Argentina, Lithuania, Greece or Russia; not to mention any number of other countries who cannot earn berths in Olympic basketball. Korea is also a nation of relatively small people but they concentrate on sports they can win & are incredibly successful. There is much to be learned by all concerned in The Philippines when it comes to athletic competition on the world stage. I welcome any and all responses direct to my e-mail: gelynch52@yahoo.com
