Hajime No Ippo Returns in 2009!

from http://zeark969.blog38.fc2.com/blog-entry-533.html

Hajime no Ippo is one of the best sports related anime series that is ever created. IMO it would rank second to Slam Dunk. Weekly shounen magazine said that the series would resume next year. Though no other details were given.

Now, If only Dr. T would get inspired once again to start SlamDunk2

Yeng Appointed RP Team Coach (Toroman next?)

Yeng Guiao was appointed as the head coach for the 2009 Fiba Asia seniors national team. The announcement was made early this afternoon by commissioner Sonny Barrios.

The Jet Li lookalike coach come politician is known for bringing out the best in no name players, RP Hoops Fans cannot wait for his choices in the national squad.

Here's Hoping that the program and training can run smoothly and politicians from the other camp will shut up and leave the game alone forever.

On other stories, it seems like former Iran national team coach Rajko Toroman is most likely to be the coach of the developmental team that will compete for the 2011 Fiba Asia and hopefully the bad logo 2012 Olympics. With the current issues regarding the coaching staff of the youth team, it is better to have a foreigner who will handle the team. And please BCAP, for once shut up.

Customized Mcfarlane Sportspick - Kelly Williams #9 Team Pilipinas
(from TMAC version 3 base figure)

This is the first time I customized an sportspick figure. I saw a lot of customizers do renditions with their sports picks figures for players or variant uniforms that havent been done as of yet. But I havent seen anyone do local (PBA) Players. I've been doing model kits before but this seemed to be a whole new ballgame. I Re sculpted the face and did the decals. The base was also re designed and the Jersey was repainted in the proper colors.

Help Destroy the BAP

We know Philippine Politics is one of the crappiest things in the world. Its like a demon with 9 heads. When you cut one off, there are still 8 that are remaining. And the head you eventually Cut back will grow back anyway. It is a never ending saga of corruption and evil.

In its culture of mass bribery, traitors and defectors fueled by Guns, Goons and Gold. Even with the mass protests, people power revolutions and political assassinations. Things still do not change. Thus, it is not a guarantee that things as light as Online petitions would even guarantee a chink in BAP's satanic armor.

But if you are still pissed with them and want to do something against the taiwanese spy and pechay, you can sign this petition.

2008: Year of the bad Logos?

After seeing the Really, really bad 2012 olympics logo, another one pops in

First is the 2012 Olympics logo. It is sad that the organizing comitee is standing by the decision on the 400,000 lbs they wasted on this logo.


Next is the New OKC Thunders Logo.
not as bad as the 2012 olympics logo but still bad.

It looks like a re edited NJ Nets logo. And where is the Thunder? a big downgrade from the Seattle Supersonics logo. It is also too generic,

It also looks like more of a secondary logo than a primary one.


What is the world coming to? Sports in general needs more good graphic artists. Sports officials on the other hand need a lecture on marketing.


But wait!


On the other hand, the New T-Wolves logo looks good. Their secondary logo is a combination of the past 2 logos they had. The main logo had more shadings as well.

wrong move.

It seems like Nike is fighting back against Adidas in the UAAP wars.

Since Adidas had a lot to offer in showing the UAAP department, Showing with merchandise, game jackets, track jackets and jerseys to offer to the fans of ADMU and DLSU. From billboards to print ads to Gilbert Arenas showing up with this two teams. With all the support and hype surrounding the Three striped brand nowadays, it was then time for the swoosh to fight back. Then they did, with displays of jerseys of their sponsored collegiate teams, UE and FEU complete with custom made hyperdunks. Pretty impressive stuff that are not for sale.

However, as with Nike Phil's Marketing flaw, they show a lot of high demand stuff, and never sell it. In fairness, they did sell very limited Team Pilipinas gears last fiba asia 2007 and Team USA gears last olympic games. And yes, that air force 1 RP edition wasn't seen anywhere on their stores. Selling limited edition stuff makes collectors happy and the general public crying and bugging those who have acquired the same items.

When will nike phils. learn?
