I hate to say I told you so, but just give me the pleasure to say I told you so that..

We are going home with the crown!

This photo is the banner outside the school taken during the victory party.

THE PARADE OF THE RED SHIRTS

f a n <noun> etymology: probably short for fanatic; 1. an enthusiastic devotee ( as of a sport or a performing art) usually as a spectator.

During the game, you just can't help but take snapshots of random people. Different emotions, different expectations - and they come in cool shirts too!

The third picture defines "ordinary fan" to the next level.

It's the Ogie Menor hairstyle syndrome.

[left]: There was this one lively group of students who passionately tally Sam Ekwe's score, rebounds, steals and points. They came very prepared with that improvised scoreboard. I remember our 'batibot days' during college haha ^__^

[right]: Kuya JP, Bernie and my Joachim: They were all standing.

Very intense...yeah?

The big red foamy hands,more red balloons and cardboards all say one thing:

 G O   S A N   B E D A   F I G H T!

We are Bedans. Need We Say More? We don't have little Indians during the half time so we shout at the top of our lungs (special mention to Ronald, who should auditioned to the cheering squad..Man, they could use your voice)

"I'm going home to the place where I belong, where your love has always been enough for me..."

"...but these places and these faces are getting old, so I'm going home..."

BACK TO THE DEN: I have never seen the LRT full of people in red shirts. Get ready for the victory party!

And when I saw this outside, I feel that there are more reasons to celebrate: MABUHAY: BEDAN ATHLETES!!!

He was there - again! This time, he wears RED!!! Bow to the Loyalty Chito Loyzaga for in his blood flows the blood of great ball players. [Extreme hehe]

Dark chocolate men.. anyone?   [left:] He might literally kick some butt (that we all know will hurt) but... Sam is definitely a sweetheart, and I will repeat it for the record. He is scary at times because of his height and strong skin color but he knows how to smell good. ^__^ *sniff*sniff*   [right:] Eneka Udo (not sure of his first name, though) sure is younger and we can say 'lighter' but i think he is suplado and super snob -maybe just my first impression, but he just makes sure he knows how to bring it next season. Some says he is to watch out for... we'll see!   [from left:] King Pong Escobal---JR 'Baby Shaq' Taganas---Garvo Lanete--- Coach Frankie Lim and Chico Tirona (n_n) Forgive me, I hug people when I'm happy. hehe         THE BEDAN HYMN The chills and the thrills, it's all part of the singing and reminiscing. Even though they might emphasized 'boyhood' every time we sing, I just say, whatever!   I am a proud FEMALE BEDAN I celebrate the BEDAN culture just like any other Bedan would do and I bring back the glory to San Beda, our country and God.

See you next season!

 

It all began on a rainy Wednesday afternoon at the Big Dome.

 

September 19 is not an ordinary day for the Colegio de San Juan de Letran and San Beda College.

 

Because at the end of the game, only one team nears the crown.

 

It's the NCAA Season 83

BASKETBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS

 

 

 

Number Play:

Not your average Red Lion ball game

. . . . .. . . . .. . . . .. . . . .. . . . .. . . . .. . . . .. . . . .. . . . ..

We sure scored first but the opponent shows persistence with their defense.

Although they won't admit, both teams are nervous.

Both teams need to win. Big time!

I thought that the game will be predictable on the second quarter, but with the close range of scores, nobody can tell.

(Maybe we can ask the referee and his "no call" judgements hmmp!)

I think Ogie Menor's defense saved our Lion's butt. :D
