Boston Celtics appreciate Filipino Boxer too!!

Unang una, Go Pinoy!! =D

Ok, obviously you all already know about Manny moving up to another division by gaining 5 pounds and beating the Champ and all that Jazz, what you might don't know that I think you'll find cool is that the NBA Champs Boston Celtics are Manny fans too!! THAT IS STRAIGHT SICK, in a good way of course. Manny is putting Filipinos on the Map fo Show!! This says a lot about the Celtics too, I think more and more Filipinos are going to become Celtics fans after this. There are still a lot of people in the world that look down at us, but the fact that these NBA Champs are showing appreciation for our boy Manny,... WOW. SWEET. ;)

Pinoy Sensation Arnel Pineda Guests with Journey on Ellen's Show

As you've seen in my earlier posts, we've been following Arnel Pineda since his video with his Philippine band the Zoo on the video that was posted on youtube. Well since then a lot has happened since then but just recently he was featured in Ellen's show wherein she wanted to have them on her show a couple of weeks ago. Ellen did also mention that there are a lot of talented singers in the Philippines. You know what, she is right. ;) I salute her for admitting so, and on behalf of all of the talented singers / performers (don't forget the guys from the jabbawockeez) of Filipino blood, Thank You.

Mabuhay ang Pinoy!

A message to Arnel: Pareng Arnel, ngayong na-approve na yung Visa mo, baka naman pwede ka mag concert dito sa Guam, USA? Marami ding Pinoy dito na gusto ka makita. Kung hindi ka masyadong big time for us, let me know! =D Noypi

Enjoy! Go Journey! Go Pinoys! Rock the World! =)

Half Filipino Erik Spoelstra named NBA's Miami Heat Head Coach




Another Pinoy-Blood makes it into the Big-Time. With Coach Pat Riley stepping down and retiring from coaching, he announces that the new Head Coach will be 13 Year Miami Heat Associate and Assistant Coach Erik Spoelstra.

Here is the Story from Inquirer.net:

MANILA, Philippines—Filipino-American Erik Spoelstra has replaced Pat Riley as the new head coach of Miami Heat after the latter announced his resignation on Tuesday.

"I just want to let everybody know how excited and honored I am to be the next coach of the Miami Heat," said Spoelstra, who has worked for the club for the past 13 years. "I want to thank everybody for having the confidence in me to lead this team on the court and in the future."

Before he assumed his new post in the 2006 National Basketball Association champion team, the 35-year-old Spoelstra served as Riley’s assistant, training young players such as Dwyane Wade.

Spoelstra’s mother is a Filipino, the former Fe Celino of San Pablo City, and his father Jon is of Dutch-Irish origin.

Make us proud Erik, make us proud.

Mabuhay ang Pinoy!
