A POPULAR collegiate basketball player became boastful when he was hailed as the main guy in the university he is playing for before – drawing the ire of his teammates and friends.
“Masyado nang lumaki ang ulo ni player. Ibang-iba na ang ugali niya simula noong pumasok siya rito. Nagsimula iyong pagiging mayabang niya noong bansagan siya ni coach na star player ng team,” a source told Buzzer Beater.
“Mas lalo pang lumobo ang ulo niya noong bumuhos iyong mga endorsements niya hanggang sa lumayo na ang loob ng teammates niya sa kanya bukod sa tatlo,” they added.
But the source said it was not because of the collegiate player’s changed attitude that he was removed from the university’s basketball team.
“Balewala naman iyon sa coaches at sa team supporter kung mayabang si player kundi iyong kakaibang kalokohan niya at ng dalawang close niya na sa team ang dahilan kaya sila nasipa.
“After noong season nila last year, biglang nagpa-drug test si team supporter sa lahat ng mga players nila at doon sila nadale. Positive sila sa ipinagbabawal ni Presidente Duterte.
“Kaya kalokohan iyong pinapalutang nila na dahil sa endorsements kaya nasipa iyong tatlo. E iyong iba nilang players before and now ang dami-dami ring endorsements pero hindi nagagalaw.
“Tigas nga ang pagmamakaawa noong tatlo na bigyan pa sila ng isang chance pero matigas si team supporter,” the source said. “Tinatapos na lang nila iyong natitira nilang semester at aalis na sila sa school.”
TAY TUNG TO PULL OUT IF…
Bacolod Tay Tung High School Thunderbolts considers pulling out of the Western Visayas Regional Athletic Association Meet from Feb. 17 to 23 in Iloilo City.
Vice President for Sports Jose Montalbo told Buzzer Beater they will reconsider their participation if the organizers push through with holding volleyball games outdoors.
“Ang isinasaalang-alang lang naman namin ay ang safety ng mga players,” he said.
“Imagine if a championship game lasts for three hours and it is played outdoors, what will happen to our players? Kung hindi man sila masaktan sa rough surface baka naman ma-heatstroke sila,” he added.
According to Montalbo, Tay Tung is not the only school complaining about it – other coaches in the qualifier are, too. He has written Iloilo governor Arthur Defensor Sr. with regard his concern.
“If you let them play outdoors, the chances of them being wounded or injured are high. Volleyball courts now use Taraflex flooring for safety reasons because the game is becoming fast and furious,” Montalbo said.
“Who will be held accountable if something happens to our players? These students still have a bright future ahead of them,” he added./PN
