(Thank you Archerpride.com for the pics)

the Archer named "Maui Villanueva"...

My friends who read my blog regularly (didn't know that..) often criticize me for writing the usual things about DLSU or Simon Atkins... So for a change & for the delightness of my readers (as if i have readers...) Here is it... A blog entry about Maui Villanueva...

VILLANUEVA, ALVIN JOSEPH or more popularly know as Maui is one of the rookies this season for DLSU. Maui used to study / play for UPIS during his Junior years (won Rookie of the Year,in his 1st year in UPIS) before travelling to JAPAN where he finished his highschool Studies...

Maui started out slow for DLSU under the shadow of Ryan Buenafe of ADMU, but just like a great player as he is, He showed Everyone the Arrival of another Villanueva Player in the UAAP...

During their 1st Meeting with UST, it was Maui's Free Throw that put DLSU on a safe ground to win that Game...

2nd Meeting with the Tigers proved that It is indeed MAUI Villanueva is the MAN that defeated the Tigers Twice.... (do i need to remind you guys of the follow up shot Maui made during the dying seconds of the game?)...

Hats off to you MAUI...

Looking forward for more Great Games & eventually a CHampionship next Season...

Note:

Simon Atkins still tops my list, Allera on the 2nd & Maui grabbing the 3rd..

*RieL Signing off

It's a BLUE day...

It's raining hard today, it's as if the heavens is sympathizing with the hundreds of green archers accepting their defeat like a brave warrior...

It is in deed the year of the eagles as they swept La Salle in their 4 meetings...

The Green Archers' campaign this season ain't that bad, in fact... It’s year of revelation not only for only for the players but the coaches as well...

This Season, We saw great Triumphs brought about by the players that stepped up to the challenges... We also saw the reckoning of the Future of the Green Archers, Awesome Rookies with the likes of Maui Villanueva & LA Revilla...

James Mangahas, Pj Barua, Rico Maierhofer & Simon Atkins definitely raised the level of the Game into a higher ground…

Needless to say the Heroic efforts of Captain Casio…

Thank you JVee for such a great season…

We may have lost this season, Be ready for our come back…

Game 1 - Blue Prevails...

Though I wasn't able to catch the Game 1 of the UAAP Season 71 Finals, I have this high hope of DLSU winning Game 1, but it looks like that Simon & the rest of the Archers haven't found a solution to a "Problem" named "Rabeh"... The Atenian 6'7" center scored a decent 31 points during the game yesterday... (He just might win the Season MVP)... my heart broke when i Got the news from my friend that DLSU loss the Game (8 pts deficit)... I was even more sadden when I arrived at MRT Station Cubao & See my fellow La Sallians who watched the game with a depressing look on their faces...

I'm Hoping (& keeping my fingers crossed) that DLSU can make a comeback against ADMU. I have faith in Coach Franz & The Archers that they can make it through & Defend the Title...

It Takes 2 games to win a Championship Right...

Let's pray & keep our faith that DLSU can bounce back from 3-0 Loss to ADMU.

Never We Shall Fail...

*I still love Simon Atkins, no matter what...

P.S.
I still don't have tickets for Thursday...
Anyone can give/Sell me one...

THE PAST

I was wrong when i hurt you
But did you have to hurt me too
Did you think revenge will make it better?
I don't care about the past
I just want our love to last
There's a way to bring us back together
Chorus:
I must forgive you
You must forgive me too
If we wanna try to put things back
the way they used to be
'cause there's no sense in going over and over
The same things as before
So let's not bring the past up anymore
Out of all the good we had
You only keep track of the bad
Though you knew i never really loved her
Didn't anyone tell you yet
That to forgive is to forget
How can you be mad if you don't remember
Repeat Chorus:
I must forgive you
And you must forgive me too
It's the only thing that's left
that we haven't try to do
One thing that i'm sure will work
That we haven't tried before
Let's not bring the past back anymore

A Brigther Future for # 7 & the Archers...

After the terrible Accident & the off comeback game,

it seems like Simon ATkins is finally stepping up his game on the right time....


Simon's Performance Analysis...

DLSU Vs. AdU

Big 12pts for Simon, his career high so far, won the KFC Court Colonel & awarded with the most Assists (DLSU side only)...

Improved 3 points shooting...

DLSU Vs. ADMU

Second top scorer for the Green Archers, and again Awarded with Most Assists & superb 3 pt shooting.. And not to mention, the Steal from Eric Salamat.... AHAHHAHAHa... Sweet Revenge?!

DLSU Vs. FEU (Play-off)

a decent 6 pts under his name & not to mention his well executed plays... & for the 3rd consecutive time: Most Assists ....

Prize? - a twice to beat advantage for the DLSU Green Archers...


In deed, SImon is now maturing & his game is improving over the last games, I do hope he continue his improvement & be the one of the deadliest PG in the UAAP....

Er.... not to mention His Good Looks & Hot Bod...


I really heart SIMON...

Just a win a way, & another Finals Appearance for the "LOYAL ARCHER" & the rest of the Archers...

*RieL* out...

Puerto Galera Weekend... Delayed Post Again...

1st Term is almost over, just finished with all my final exams and what else to do but ENJOY...

Me & the 7 other friends decided to hit Galera last Sept. 5 - 8... it was decent trip, with the weather's fine, not too sunny nor too rainy, just right... I missed this place so much, the last time I've been here was way back in 2006... the place haven't change a bit, it's still perfect for diving & snorkling, the corals & the fishes were still amazing as they were before, the sunset is still lovely & perfect for lovers to share their moments... (Too Bad, i don't have anyone to share it with...)

We spent our 3 days there swimming, snorkling, island hopping, eating, drinking, clubbing, swimming again, snorkling again, island hopping again, eating (as always), drinking again & Clubbing....

The Vacation was almost perfect, until DLSU loss to ADMU for the 2nd time... it was such a great game for both the Archers & The Eagles... inspite, Jvee having a bad game yet Simon & the rest of the Archers gave a good fight against the Katipunan Based Ballers... I ain't mad with DLSU Losing, I'm just sad cause it was a missed oppotunity for the twice to beat...

(Excess: My EX knows the brother of the one of the BLUE eagles & he often criticize Simon's ability & compare him with Salamat, I'm so delighted when Simon was able to steal the ball from Salamat & go for the basket... HAHAHAHHA.. Sweet Revenge)

Kudos for Simon, for playing such a great Game....


I don't know if my post is making any sense... anyway, Got to go...

Check pics @ my FS account...

Thanks....

AMFNESS... Tickets for Sept 6 - SOLD OUT!!!

I hate when things like this happens...

well, guess i still have 4 more days to find someone who'll give/sell me tickets to the game...


or I might end up watching it on TV again...



*sigh*

My Tribute to UAAP Ballers

it's no question that SIMON ATKINS would top my list...

aside from him, there are other players that seem to get my attention & respect in how they play their game...

Let's do this by School Affinity...

UP
- Woody Co & Jay Agbayani...
this 2 Maroons gave a scare on the TamS last saturday, never did imagine that great players like them exist in UP.. hihi... anyway, lets give credit them. it's not easy being an athlete And definitely it ain't easier studying in UP...

Kudos Guys...

AdU
- Jan Colina, Mike Galinato, Paul Gonzalgo & Marc Agustin
there's hope for the FALCONS come season 72, with the way these guys are playing, I'm sure that we'll all be suprised next season. and need less to say how cute Paul Gonzalgo & Marc Agustin are... =)

NU
-Erwin Asoro
though it's his last playing year, no doubt that he's one of the best players NU has ever produced... Good Luck on your PBA stint (hopefully he makes it)

FEU
-Mac Baracael, Paul Sanga, Benedict Fernandez, Marlon Adolfo, JR Cawaling
such an exciting season for the Tams, after the Baracael Shooting, the emotions flowing... look where they are now? the FINAL 4 nonetheless... i just hope the emotional factor could carry them throughout the rest of the season... Facing the Archers on the Final 4...

UST
- Jervy Cruz, Dylan Ababou, Tata Bautista, Francis Allera
Bad Decisions & inconsistencies haunted the Tigers this season, they have played a great game then suddenly, their opponent was able to turn the tables on them... (remember, the DLSU match in the 1st round where they loss just by a single pt, the FEU game, where they are leading as much as 16pts. and lastly, the heartbreak loss to DLSU courtesy of Maui Villanueva)... just to add another incident in the list, is the DO or DIE game with UE last sunday... much have been said... i hope they can get back next season... but amidst all that, Francis Allera is still cute...

ADMU
-Chris Tiu, Jai Reyes, Severino Baclao, Eric Salamat
Great season for the Eagles but the question is, can they sustain their dominance...
the anticipated DLSU - ADMU 2nd meeting will happen this saturday, the game is so crucial for both squad, ADMU - the pride of sweeping DLSU & DLSU - revenge & a chance for the last TWICE to Beat Advantage... Definitely, Chris stepped up his game along with his fellow eagles but the question still lingers... "Are they strong enough?" We'll see...

UE
-Marcy Arellano, Paul Lee
i still hate #10 for hurting SIMON unintentionally... watching their previous games, the Warriors that dominate season 70 is still there... more consistency & hyped up defense is the key to their success... Good Luck in meeting the Eagles... i do hope you butcher the Eagles this Final 4...

DLSU
-Maui Villanueva, LA Revilla, James Mangahas, Rico Maierhofer, Jvee Casio, Peejay Barua, Joshua Webb & the rest of the Green Archers...

do i need to say more? Goodluck Archers...

the edge of DLSU over ADMU is the championship experience...

that alone is a big factor that will spell the difference between the 2 Schools...
