INILUNSAD ni Cardinal-designate Manila Archbishop Luis Antonio G. Tagle ang ‘Taon ngPananampalataya’ sa isang Misa sa San Fernando de Dilao Parish Church sa Paco, Maynila noong Sabado.

‘Wala nang Palparan sa AFP’WALA na sa militar ngkatulad ni retired Maj.Gen. Jovito Palparan,na binansagang “ber-dugo” ng mga militan-te, ayon kay Lt. Gen.Emmanuel Bautista,hepe ng Phil ippineArmy.

Sinabi ni Bautistana mahigpit na bina-bantayan ng ArmedForces ang mga opi-syal at tauhan ng mi-litar kaugnay sa pro-grama nito sa pag-galang sa mga karap-atang pantao.

S a m u n g k a h i n gtinutulungan ng mili-tar ang mga tinutugisn a k a t u l a d n i Pa l-paran, ani Bautista: “Ican tell you I’m notcoddling Palparan.”

Nang tanungin kungsaan maaring nagtata-go si Palparan, sinabi niBautista: “Your guess isas good as mine.”

Walang kapangya-rihan ang Army na pa-panagutin ang dating

opisyal ng militar parasa mga umano’y kasa-lanan nito, anang he-neral. Aniya, wala nasa serbisyo si Palparanat isa nang sibilyan.

“This is not me be-ing recognized. It isthe whole people ofGod here in Manilaand in the Philippineswho are being recog-nized,” aniya.

Inalala ni Tagle: “Iwas named a memberof the ITC (Interna-tional TheologicalCommission) for fiveyears by Pope JohnPaul II in 1997. Butbecause there was ajubilee in 2000, ourterm was extendedfor one more year.Our head was thenCardinal Ratzingerwho is now PopeBenedict XVI.”

Naghiwalay sila ng asawa niyanang ito ay sumama sa ibanglalaki. Dalawa ang anak nila atang mga ito ay may mga asawana rin. Sa akin siya nakatira dahilsiya naman ang nagpagawa ngbahay ko. Hindi siya kumikibomaghapon at ayaw niyang maykasabay kumain. Gusto langniyang laging mag-isa.

May motor siya at nawawalana lang siya nang matagal, min-san ay dalawang linggo o isangbuwan. Wala siyang sinasabingpinuntahan niya.

May naipon siyang pera kayahindi niya problema ito. Ako na-man ay may karinderiang maliitkaya hindi rin ako kailanganghumingi sa kanya ng sustento.

POC Comelec ‘hahatulan’ si GoNi June Navarro

SUSURIIN ngayon ng Commis-sion on Elections sa ilalim ngPhilippine Olympic Committeekung may karapatan si athleticchief Go Teng Kok na tumakbobilang pangulo ng POC.

Gagawin ang eleksyon

Nobyembre 30 kung saan ay ha-harapin ni Go si Peping Co-juangco na hangad ang ikatlongsunod termino.

Pinapangunahan ni datingkinatawan at volleyball presi-dent Victorico Chavez ang Com-elec na kasapi sina Bro. BernardOca at Ricky Palou.

Lumakas ang loob ni Go naharapin ang dating kasanggamatapos na katigan ng SupremeCourt ang kanyang pagtakbo.

“The POC can’t ignore thehighest law of the land. There isno basis to disqualify my bid torun for president against Mr.Cojuangco,” wika ni Go.

PAG-ASATALAGA nga kayang totally offat wala ng pag-asa ang pinaka-aasam na face off ninaSarangani Congressman MannyPacquiao at Floyd “The Money ”Mayweather Jr?

For awhile tila may nasilipna pag-asa ang mundo paramaging reality ang dreammatch ng maging magka-ibigansina Pacquiao at 50 Cent nanoo’y manager ni Mayweather.

Pero, kamakailan lang napa-balitang nag-split na sina 50Cent at Mayweather at pumir-ma naman si Pacquiao ng an-other 2-year contract sa TopRank Promotions ni Bob Arum.

Sa paglagda ng new contractni Pacquiao with Arum,mukhang signs na ito na wala

na munang negosasyon kayMayweather.

Alam naman natin kunggaano kalaki ang galit ni FloydJr. dito kay Arum.

Samantalang sinimulan na niPacquiao ang final phase ngtraining sa Wild Card Gym saHollywood in preparation forhis fourth fight with JuanManuel Marquez naglabas na-man ng statement ang tatay niMayweather na si Floyd Sr.

Kung noon, tungkol sa drug

test ang dinadakdak ni Floyd Sr,this time wala daw kapana-panalo si Pacquiao sa kanyanganak.

Ang pinababasehan ngmatandang Floyd ay ang resultang laban ni Juan Manuel Mar-quez sa naunang tatlo kay Pac-quiao at nag-iisa naman sakanyang Jr.

Ayon kay Floyd Sr. na-pakadaling tinalo ng kanyanganak si Marquez, samantalangsi Pacquiao full 36 rounds ehpawang kuwestiyunable pa angresulta.

Anyway, kayang-kaya pala ngkanyang anak na talunin si Pac-quiao, eh bakit tila iniiwasan ni-la ang Sarangani congressmansa ibabaw ng squared ring?

ALAS, not new to pressure-filled situations, stresses a point during ahuddle. AUGUST DELA CRUZ

LETRAN MENTOR ALAS PULLS AN ACE

My family, my lifeBy Ruth L. Navarra

U LTIMATELY, coach Louie Alas chose familyover basketball when he decided to step downas head coach of the Letran Knights.

The Knights were beaten bythe San Beda Red Lions, 67-39,in Game 3 of the NCAA finals.The experience and the intensi-ty of the Lions threw theKnights off guard. But Alas hadother reason for his resignation.

“I’ve been here for 12 years.Matagal ko ng iniisip, kungnanalo sana fitting farewellpero that’s life,” he said in ahoarse voice. “Nagsusumbongsila (his sons) sa mom nila nawala na silang ginagawangtama. Dun talaga ako na-touch.”

Two of his players in theteam are his sons, Kristoffer andKevin. Because he didn’t wantanybody accusing him of prefer-

ential treatment, Alas admittedthat he was extra hard onKristoffer and Kevin.

Under Alas, the Knightstrained as if there was no to-morrow. But at the end of theday, Alas would take the burdenof a loss not his players.

“It was a good day for them(San Beda) and a bad one forus. Sabi ko naman sa kanila,wala namang pwedeng sisihinsa inyo diyan. Kung meronmang may nagkamali dito, akoyun. So you don’t have to bowyour heads down. Just moveon,” Alas said.

‘‘The journey to the champi-onship had not been easy. Theirstory could have been a Cin-

derella story. They were able toget past the San Sebastian Stagsin the Final Four twice, earningthem a spot in the finals. Theywere able to defeat San Bedaon Game 2 when everybodyelse expected a sweep.”

“Ang tama naming ginawathis season is sobra kamingnagsacrifice. We always went tochurch every day. This game,yung inexperience took its tollon us sa finals,” said Alas.

Letran didn’t forget its spiri-tual side after getting batteredby the Lions. The Knights wentout of the locker room withrosaries around their necks.Alas wore two.

Alas noted that the gameoverflowed with emotion espe-cially for graduating playersJam Cortes and Carlo Lituania.

‘‘The bad thing was that welost and the good thing wasthat they learned a lot from it.

Hindi lang sa basketball maga-gamit ito kundi sa daily life ni-la,’’ he said. ‘‘I told the rest ofthe boys na may mga games panaman like the Champions’League. Sabi ko sa kanila, taposna ang NCAA. Now, studyhard.’’

He’s leaving the team but hemade sure that they will not belost without him. He says he al-ready recruited replacementsfor his graduating players. Whathe’s really trying to find are bigmen because he knows that the

team lacks the height advan-tage.

The players will go back totraining next week. He says thatthey will be trained on theirperimeter shooting because thatis what they badly need to im-prove on.

When asked what he woulddo the rest of the day, Alas isquick to answer.

‘‘I’ll be with my family. Kungpwede din yung buong team ngLetran tonight, gusto ko dinsilang makasama.’’

paint the town REDage San Beda’’ F ROM start to finish, San Beda never

disappointed its Red Army of diehardsupporters.

After winning their first game with six healthymen, the Red Lions entered the Final Four with plentyto spare.

The Mendiola-based warriors downed PerpetualHelp Altas in the semis and got the boost when Letranstunned San Sebastian College in the other half of thedraw. The Stags tamed the Lions twice in the elimina-tions but self-destructed against the Knights in the F4.

Under the masterful guidance of former PBA gun-ner and San Beda Red Cubs star Ronnie Magsanoc,the Lions were clearly ahead of the pack.

They stumbled in Game 2 of the title series, but notto worry. It was just a temporary setback.

Baser Amer: Leading the PackBy Patrick Leonard Mayo

I N THE GAME of bas-ketball, there areplayers who really

have a knack for winning.These players not onlyhate losing but, more im-portantly, they know howto win.

And of the many prolificplayers in the NCAA, sopho-more Baser Amer of the reign-ing basketball titlists San BedaRed Lions is a perfect exampleof a winner inside the basket-ball court as he led the Mendio-la-based squad to a three-peatvictory, thanks to his champi-onship performance that earnedhim finals MVP honors.

‘‘Bago mag-Game Three, ini-isip ko kung paano akomakakatulong sa team, so nag-ing aggressive lang ako at fo-cused,’’ said the 20-year-oldpoint guard who hails from thesouth in Davao. ‘‘Last game na,do-or-die na, so bawal na tala-gang magkamali.’’

Baser gave it his all as he ex-ploded for 20 points in GameOne and 14 markers during therubber match that helped theRed Lions build a huge cushionin the first half en route to SanBeda’s record-setting 17thmen’s basketball title.

But Amer knows very wellthat being part of a winningsquad and a three-peat team atthat, requires a lot of patienceand a lot of sacrifices. ‘‘Yung la-hat ng mga pinag-daanannamin buong season, yung “Su-per Six” kung saan suspendedkaramihan ng mga playersnamin, yung mga times nabumabaha pero nag-training pa

din kami, lahat yun ginawanamin para lang manalo kami,’’added the 5’10” court generalwho was also hailed rookie ofthe year last season.

The second year Marketing

major is no stranger to successhaving won multiple titles dur-ing his high school years as aRed Cub but winning twostraight in the seniors divisiongave him a different kind of joy.

And with at least two moreplaying years for the big redschool in store for Baser, theMendiola dynasty has a goodchance of extending its reignfurther in the NCAA.

Coach Magsanoc basks in the glory of the momentRONNIE Magsanoc, PBA’s pointlaureate turned winning coach,didn’t want to look back at thepast.

The rookie head coach of theNCAA’s winningest team justwanted to savor the moment.

When reminded by PDI scribeJasmine Payo of his own successas a star high school player forthe school under the legendaryAto Badolato, Magsanoc an-

swered with a laugh.‘‘That was so long ago. At

this stage, you don’t think backanymore. You just think of thepresent. Just be grateful for thesituation that you can serve theschool.”

To the shock of the Letrangallery, San Beda turned a pre-dicted shootout into a massacre,67-39, before a jampacked crowdat the Smart Araneta Coliseum.

Both teams split the first twogames of the best-of-threechampionship and fans and ex-perts alike agreed that the de-cider would be ‘‘bloody.” TheKnights and the Lions went intoGame Three tied with 16 titles.

But San Beda, smooth and un-forgiving, had other things inmind as it took control of thematch right from the opening bellen route to crowning itself the

league’s winningest team.“From the very beginning it

has always been the players,”said Magsanoc. “It’s a specialseason for the players. That firstwin [where San Beda won withonly six players] was very im-portant. We were also able togo to the Final Four seamlessly.”

Magsanoc got the surprise ofhis life when he replacedFrankie Lim at the wake of the

controversial off-season brawlthat led to the suspension ofvirtually the entire San Bedasquad on its first game.

“There never really was aplan to be the coach of thisteam. Things happened andthey found me to be the head,”said Magsanoc, a member ofthe elite 25 all-time best playersof the pro league.

Baste swingman sings Swan songBy Michael Angelo Jugado

IN his very last collegiategame donning the proudcolors of the San SabastianCollege-Recoletos GoldenStags, Ronald Pascual hadthe chance to win the gamefor Baste.

Pascual, never gun-shy totake the big shot when itmattered most, had thechance to will the Stags to areturn trip in the LastDance against their tormen-tors of seasons past— theSan Beda College Red Lionsand a shot at redemptionagainst their arch-nemesisthat denied them cage gloryin the NCAA the past twoyears.

But the basketball godsand goddesses had otherplans in mind.

He missed.Crestfallen by the bitter

loss of the ‘twice-to-beat’Baste to the upstart LetranKnights, who put an abruptend to his celebrated NCAAcareer, Pascual remains gra-cious even in defeat.

‘‘Kahit talo kami sa lastgame ay proud pa rin ako sateam ko at sa sarili ko dahilkahit paano natulungan koang team namin sa loob ngapat na taon,” said the 24-year-old Pascual.

And nothing is to beashamed of for the long tomartist, whose deadly outsideshooting and boundless ath-leticism catapulted him intohis stature as one of NCAA’sbig time gunners.

Pascual, a native of Mexi-co, Pampanga, bid adieu tohis collegiate stint with theRed and Gold of Recto withhis head held high.

‘‘Nagpapa-salamat ako samga pari, kay Mr. Gusi(Frank Gusi, SSC-R’s athleticdirector) at kay Mayor Pine-da sa suporta nila sa akin at

sa team. Maraming salamatsa Baste community, sa mgateachers, students at mgafans ng Stags kung ’di dahilsa kanila ay wala ako ngayondito,” he added.

The sweet-shooting Pas-cual, a part of the Stags’vaunted troika, known as the“Pinatubo Trio” which in-cludes now PBA super rookieCalvin “The Beast” Abuevaand reigning NCAA MVP IanSangalang, is playing for theNLEX Road Warriors in thePBA D-league.

‘‘Ang dadalhin ko sa NLEXna natutunan ko while play-ing for Baste is yung lumala-ban hanggang sa huli,walang gi-give up kahitanong mangyari,” said Pas-cual.

The high-flying Pascualpulled out from the 2012PBA Draft due to the pletho-ra of Fil-Ams who joined theannual event while also try-ing to get more time to recu-perate from his injury thatslowed him down early inthe season.

RONNIE MAGSANOC:

Trudging the Road to GloryBy Patrick Leonard Mayo

R IGHT BEFORE THE start of the NCAA’s 88thseason, the San Beda Red Lions’ lair wasfilled with turmoil, confusion and pressure.

Months before the start ofthe season, the team’s then-head coach Frankie Lim andsome of the teams playersgot involved in an altercationwith the volleyball headcoach of San Sebastian whicheventually led to Lim’s resig-nation and suspensions onsome of the players.

Now the chance of de-fending their basketball titleand repeating a three-peat allof a sudden turned dim.

Then came the hiring of ex-pro and former San Beda RedCub Ronnie Magsanoc as thenew coach of the team and

apparently the PBA’s “PointLaureate” had his own way ofdealing with the situation.

“I just tried to focus onthe things that I have controlof from the start.’’

Winning his first NCAA ti-tle as a coach in just his firstyear at the helm is somethingthat he attributes to thelessons and philosophies thathe taught and learned fromhis players the whole endeav-or leading to the school’s17th men’s basketball cham-pionship which made themthe league’s most successfulteam.

‘‘Marami akong natutunansa kanila, at marami silangnatutunan sa akin. Faithwithout fear was our battlecry and relying on confi-dence, composure andcourage also played a bigpart.”

He added: ‘‘We earnedwisdom through the manyfailures that you encounter,failures that really helped usreach this far and win.”

But more than the win-ning the title, the rookiecoach was all about his play-ers and about giving back tohis alma mater.

‘‘Thankful ako and I reallyappreciate this opportunity tohelp the players reach theirpotentials and this is our wayof giving back to the school,’’ended the winning coach.

LIM:Unstoppable

ALLANA LIM

Limsanity of FEUBy Danielle Nakpil

IT WAS just another Sunday afternoonat the quarters of FEU athletes. Thehub was almost empty except forthe waiters, a few people diningin and a remarkably tall lady

with a visi-bly ath-leticphysiquesilentlysitting onone of thecouches whilemunching herburger.

She was surf-ing the internetusing her iPadas the replayof the UAAPwomen’sbasketballchampi-onshipgame was beingshown on theflatscreen.

‘‘Boss, nai-shootmo ba yung susun-od?, a man sittingnearby asked her, re-ferring to a freethrow. ‘‘Ewan. Hindiko na maalala eh,”the lady quipped witha smile.

That lady was MVPAllana Lim. The LadyTams beat the LadyArchers, completing a16-0 sweep. Lim nei-ther looked amusednor thrilled as shewatched herself onTV score 15 points,including crucial bas-kets down the stretchas FEU kept is crown.

A Cebuana, the 5-foot-9 forward for-merly played for theUniversity of Cebu La-dy Webmasters beforejoining FEU.

Surprisingly, lawntennis not basketballwas her first love.

‘‘College lang akonaglaro ng basketball.Kinuha lang nila akodahil sa height ko.Eventually, natuto na-man ako,” said the 5-foot-10 Lim.

Aside from tennisand basketball, Limalso loves to play vol-leyball, swim, surfand skateboard.

‘‘Sa sports, I don’treally have an idol.Michael Jordan, sig-uro. But my fatherBenito was thebiggest reason why Iended up loving andplaying sports.”

In Cebu, Allanaregularly played withfellow college ballstar and classmateJunmar Fajardo, whobecame the overalltop pick in the lastPBA draft.

FEU wrested the ti-tle from Adamson lastyear. Lim was votedFinals MVP.

‘‘Yung feeling ngpagkapanalo ng MVP,parang natural na lang.Bonus na lang yun eh.Ang importante talaga,championship. Doonkami talagang masaya.Yung MVP, individuallang yan.”

A member of thenational team, Lim re-mains an ordinarystudent-athlete.

‘‘Kahit tinatawagnila akong scoringmachine, simplengatleta pa rin namanako. Sa studies na-man, nahihirapan rinako sa major subjectsko.”

To aspiring cagers,Lim has this to say:‘‘If you don’t live forsomething, you’ll diefor nothing.”
