A thousand apologies….
 PAGIIIIINNNNNGGGG PAGIIIIINNNNNGGGGG CLIFFFOOOORRRRDDDD! CLIFFFOOORRRRDDD AKA AS macgyverford (ano naman kaya ang gyve nya?)
Nag AWOL si Clifford sa kanyang work as scorer. Anon’g dahil? Dahil sya ay tulog na tulog pa this early morning of a glorious Sunday. Anon’g dahil nga? Kase  kase  nag SOHO sila kagabe.
So, ang naging scorers – for the First Game – Lyn; Second Game – Marlyn.
Chairman, give him a warning letter.
First Game: Black Mambas vs W@Tel
Dialogue:  Willy:  Erwin, sino ang first 3 ninyo?
                   Erwin: Erwin, Sherwin and John.
                   Willy: Pamalit?
                   Erwin: Erwin, Sherwin and John.
                    Willy: First 3 ‘yan. ‘yong pang sub ninyo?
                   Erwin: Erwin, Sherwin and John.
Ayun naman pala, eh. Announcing The Black Mambas – Erwin, Sherwin and John
Ang White team. Kompleto sila – to compensate for the Fourth Round – aba! nanalo ang Blue team by default.
Saying it was a game well-played is an under-statement. The First 3 (and subs) of The Black Mambas got it so harmonized that against all odds they led 9 to 5 of the White team. As announced ‘….in favor offfff….daaaa Blaaaaaccckkk Maammmmbaaas!
And The White Team really had to sweat it out to fight for scores.
Though in the 2nd half it’s the Black team who had slowed down. But as it is, they only conceded 3 points to the White Team.
The Second Game was equally good. They all started with 2 points each that the audience is considering not accepting any score of 1 point only! That showed the accurate shooting prowess of both teams. But of course in the end, the Yellow Team dominated with 52 points and 30 points for the Blue Team. The Blue Team is actually getting the hang of it.
