Ako Ay Nalilito Rin

Sayang at hindi umabot ang aking article para sa anniversary issue ng Abante nung Biyernes. Kaya dito ko na lang sa ?Kumbinasyon? isinulat ang aking pananaw sa Philippine sports sa nakalipas na 20 years.
Sa maraming taon na lumipas, pero hanggang ngayon ay wala pa ring pagbabago sa pagpapalakad sa ating mga manlalaro. Dahil dun ?di pa rin natin nakakamit ang gintong medalya sa Olympics. Kailangan siguro nating baguhin ang pamamalakad o ang pag-manage sa ating mga atleta. Kailangan na siguro baguhin ang sistema.
In fact, we have a lot of world champions in the professional level, but still why can't we gain a gold medal from the Olympics?
Kagaya ng sinabi ko sa mga nakaraan kong kulum, kailangan ng isang atleta ang tatlong aspeto at ito ay kahandaang: Physical, Mental at higit sa lahat, ang Spiritual na aspeto, na ating magamit lalung-lalo na sa ating kinabukasan.
Kung ating atleta ay may taglay ng tatlong aspetong nabanggit, twenty years from now, I think, we can have changes and possibly we can produce gold medals in the Olympics. Lalo pa tayong makikilala sa buong mundo bilang competitive Filipino athletes.
I don?t want to compare myself to anyone I just want to share my experience and to give inspiration to everyone, especially to my fellow Filipinos. Nasabi ko po ang lahat ng ito, because of what I?ve been through in the past.

Anyway, maraming humahamon sa akin at gusto akong labanan. Nandyan sina Marquez, Casamayor at ang tatlong Diaz. Kahit ako ay nalilito kung sino ang aking lalabanan. Pero kahit sino sa kanila, sisiguruhin ko na makapagbibigay ako ng magandang laban at higit sa lahat kasiyahan sa bawat isa, dahil ang mapasaya ko kayong lahat ay napakalaking bagay sa akin.
At heto pa rin po ako, busy sa pag-aaral dahil gusto ko po talagang makatapos sa kolehiyo, upang hindi na po ako masaktan sa panglalait ng ibang tao.
Tayong lahat ay may puso?t damdamin, hindi ko naman po ginusto na hindi makatapos ng pag-aaral noon. It?s a public knowledge that my family suffered extreme poverty during my childhood. Kaya nga po, nawa?y makapagbigay ako ng inspirasyon at magsilbing aral ang aking buhay sa bawat isa.
Hanggang sa muling ?Kumbinasyon.? Mabuhay!
