Filo Basketball drama & Byron's acid induced hallucination thread

[Cultured_Bogan]

At least the brawl made the game interesting.

Apart from Baseball, Basketball would have to be one of the most boring games going.

Why bother to go to places as unstable as the Phillipines anyway the levels of corruption and crime are enormous,
Safety should be the main decider as to where we play,

Because it's a WC qualifier. Our soccer/football team had to play in some dubious places

Rather watch tennis.

Soccer is most boring for mine.
Soz.

Can't stand soccer/football due to the diving and fairy like play

NBA is only good when the playoffs are on,at least everyone is trying then.

Soccer is a joke aye…
Just can't sit through it. Zzz

Bball is alright, it isn't what it was in the 90s tho.
Same with boxing but boxing is slowly becoming a powerhouse again with big stars coming through like Deontay Wilder, Anthony Joshua, Adrien Broner and the like.

Why you sorry? Each to their own mate.

Football isn't for everyone.

Unpopular opinion.
Soccer "football" being the biggest sport in the world.

Just not a fan…
Too soft for me.
Love tennis tho.

Of course the players' safety is paramount and it should not have happened as panned out. But the Philippine is basketball mad it is everywhere in every nook and cranny don't take one of their pleasures away from an impoverished people. Make them erect barricades if necessary. It is in their blood to be protective and they are proud how they fought the Spanish, Japanese and Americans. Australia has gone through nothing like they have gone through so they have a different psych. Kick their coach out for life for a start and half of their team.

when they return play in Australia make it a reconciliation game.

Phillipines is an amazing place dude…From Manilla to boracay. This is obviously an isolated incident. The PBL is huge over there. /facepalm :brick:

Hell yeah.

Basketball was huge in the 90s and died off for a while (in Australia) but is on the up again.

Pinoy Basketbrawl as it is now known was a lot worse and sickening than Malice in the Palace and Basketbrawl was between national teams and was aided abetted by Pinoy coach. The comparison is like AFL (Malice) to RL (Basketbrawl).

Agreed. Thank God they didn't have to play in Saudi Arabia or The United States.

When I was being assaulted at the Sydney Showground in about 1994 by fellow Lebos when protesting at the Pope's visit it was Filipinos who protected me even though they did not know me and where honouring the Pope. They were the decent ones then. Now if Geo insists I may fill the story out.

Happy, I always expect something unhappy and sarcastic from you. You should come back in another life with a happier disposition.
