Ang saya naman I have not seen badminton in a while. Ikaw kumuha ng video? I can hear someone talking sa background hehe. Is that FVR in the pic too?
I was thrilled when they won! It was a good match though.
;D
momoftwo> Yes, ako ang kumuha ng video. Kaso yung maingay eh yung mga katabi naman...hahaha. Yes also to the second query, si FVR nga yun. Si Ming Ramos kasi ang president ng Philippine Badminton Association eh.
kyels> Yes, they also have a lot of fans here. I'm sure the video you watched is a lot clearer than what I took. I just wanted you all to see the reaction of the crowd. Hahaha....saya noh?!
wow! i envy you being there face to face with world class players! ako pasmado ata kamay ko, hindi marunong kumuha ng video.:)
ipanema> Yes, I felt lucky to be near these world-class players. And I felt even honored when the Malaysian coach Misbun Sidek greeted my husband. Aba! Magkakilala pala sila! Nagkalaban pala sila nung kapanahunan nila. About the video, nako, pasmado rin nga kamay ko. Buti na lang may anti-shake yung camera. Kaso ampangit naman ng quality. Ngek. Tsaka ampangit ng puwesto ko. Hahaha....we can't have it all.
I think I caught this event live on Solar Sports the other day. Alive talaga ang badminton scene dito that foreign players come here to play....
Alive and kicking na talaga ang badminton dito sa atin. Kailan kaya makakapag-produce ng world champion ang Pinas?
Hmm, may kalbong umeentra sa view ng camera mo, hehe. :-D
major tom> Yes, naipalabas nga recently sa Solar Sports etong tourney at nare-replay pa nga eh. Exciting nga talaga. Iba ang dalang excitement ng mga foreign players na talagang kilalang magaling sa badminton.
snglguy> Mahihirapan tayong makapag-produce ng world-champion hanggang hindi naalis ang politika sa national team at hanggang hindi nabibigyan ng sapat na suporta ng gobyerno ang mga atleta natin. Hirap pating makapag-ensayo ng maayos dahil imbes na asikasuhin ang pag-eensayo, kailangang makakuha ng raket na pagtuturo para lang masuportahan ang sarili. Tsk tsk...
Tunkol naman sa kalbong ume-entra...hirap nga akong ia-angat ang camera para hindi mapansin pero nakita mo pa rin....hahahaha! Lol.
