Dear Friends and Fellow Bloggers:First of all, let me thank you for flooding my e-mail with your requests to bring back this blog. Your messages were so heartwarming and convincing. Some of them were too loud to ignore.
To be honest, I totally deleted this blog with the expectation of never recovering this site back. It's a good thing I didn't reach the treshold of 36 hours or else the site will be gone forever. Thanks to the blogger folks, because of your good timing and persistence, we got the site back.
Special thanks to LeBronTuron, SinoBaKuya , Blog Pulis, cut33angi3 (makukulit na bloggers) and 21 other bloggers who relentlessly requested to bring this site back through their e-mail requests. By the way, I already know who you are so please behave.
Also, special thanks to Herb Monsalud of GK Warriors who accidentally occupied the palaro2008.blogspot.com url/address. As he told me on the phone, he didn't really know what he was doing, he just clicked "CONTINUE" one night when he visited the forum and he didn't know how to get out of it. Because Herb didn't get out of the URL, he actually reserved the spot for us and blogger was able to save our palaro articles. Galing mo talaga pareng Herb!! Great timing ka parati. Salamat!
Just an FYI to all, specially to those blog addicts - LeBronTuron, SinoBaKuya and Blog Pulis will help me moderate the site (because I'm a bit busy at work). Don't worry, they're real people because we talked over the phone already about how to do this task. We apply the same strict rules of no trash talking or dissing someone. In addition, you cannot leave comments for the PSC on this site anymore. You have to direct your PSC Comments to PAAD's e-mail address - paadevents@yahoo.com. Also, for the information of everyone, we banned one blogger forever because of his divisive comments.
Finally, the site will be up only until this coming LABOR DAY Weekend. If you demand for extension, participate on the surveys and we will let you know if we will extend the site or not. Remember this extension does not have the sanction of the PSC, I'm just doing this out of good faith. I also have to emphasize that this BLOGSITE is not connected to PSC or PAAD. This is my personal site now. So behave please.
Again, thank you for bugging me until I gave in. If not, we could have lost everything in this site.
Take care everyone and be safe.
READY.....SET......BLOG!!!!!
Your friend,
\Scribbs
PS> Not all articles and comments were recovered by blogger.com. Whatever you see now in the Blog Archive is all what's left. I was told about 9 articles and almost 275 comments were lost. Sorry for the inconvenience. Thanks.

Attention Commenters! I completed all the transferring of comments from the Webmaster's message to here. If I missed anything, please let me know. I was asked by kuya Scribbs to take-over as he is swamped at work. Thanks! Just holler out for any questions.
Have great day!
Thanks Mr Scribbs for putting back this blog. I strongly suggest however to keep this blog connected to paadonline.org for the sake of keeping the articles related to the palaro intact with the parent website. If there's a decision to shut down the forum, then maybe, just maybe it is possible to just turn off the "Leave your comment" part and let all the articles and already-posted comments remain for the readers to appreciate. Much like an archived online newspaper.
This is just my suggestion. Thanks for all your hardwork! Cheers kabayan!!
yup manong_pen! good suggestion. mr.scribbs, i 2nd da motion! 'thnk thats the best way to go. just leave the blog open and link it back again to the parent website paadonline.org. pls. don't bring it dwn anymore (baka mawala na ng tuluyan) just turn off the comment section so that u don't moderate it anymore.
This is a suggestion only, and if this is not ok, ask manong_pen. He started it..hehe...PEACE!!pen
scribbs, thanks for coming back. miss na namin ang palaro blog. Nawalan tuloy ako ng gana when the forum page went blank. Balik mo na uli dun,pede po?
i used to be a quiet observer and decided to speak para alam mo that a lot of us follow this forum. sino po ba ang dapat kausapin para mabalik to sa forum page?
Kuya Scribbs, puno na yata ang gmail e-mail nyo, nag-ba-bounce na ang mga messages ko.
sorry po kung dito na lang ako maglalagay ng message.
Yung pong FeedJit di ko po ma-reset parang frozen altho yung internal count ok na po, gumagana na. Pati ho yung external count frozen din, kasi hindi match sa internal counters (175 int vs 110 ext visits) on the display.
tapos po, meron pa hong 14 messages na hindi ko po ma-publish. Paano po ang gagawin ko kuya scribbs? Tawag na lang po kayo pag may time.
do any of you kno the names of the 2 faces in the photo? are they titans or tfc fans? just curious.
please share if you know the answers.tks.
somebody emailed me that the forum page is open again. went to paadonline.org 4 times today but i didn't see the page. i felt frustrated. finally on the 5th try i found out there's a new link. scribbs, this is a bit confusing and i'm sure many are confused. if i may suggest, could you please just make such an announcement on the front page or the forum page that goes:
"The Forum Page has moved to a new link..blah, blah, blah. To go to the forum page, please click here."
is this possible, scribbs? this way I will be the last one to experience the confusion. Tnx and its nice your back scribbs. we miss u!!
SCRIBBS,
Thanks nga pala sa pagbabalik.
I miss everybody, especially my team mates, friends, at sila kuya Art. I'm thinking to have another celebration or reunion with the players for our supporters and family. What do you think guys? This will be like celebration for everybody. lahat pwedeng pumunta. Any suggestions?
Kuya Herb sali ako sa idea mo. May plana ka na ba?
what, when, where and who?
Keep us posted! Dapat nanduon si MVP JV namin, ok!!!
to Herb:
Yeah!!!!!!!! We've been waiting for this post-league celebration from GK WArrioRS!!! Let's hold it in a park that is central to everybody.
We should have games per team like tug-o-war or volleyball!!
Let's do it Herb!!!
As of now, I emailed my team mates to see if everybody will be available. Meron din kaming balak as a team, about the video of all our games but i need to verify some things kay doc Mel.
Siuro sa park gaganapin yun may basketball court para naman mapagbigyan yung ibang fans at PHI fans (what do you think?)
yoohhooo, herb!!!! we'd love to see a GKWarriors vs PHI match kahit exhibition game lang!
calling JP Destreza and the PHI team!! Payag na ang GK for an exhibition match!!!
mr.scribbs can you announce here please!
Herb, when n where is the celebration and exhibition game so that we can reserve the date. sana weekend ha?? please tell us, am so excited to see gk play again!!
Whoah..at may video pa ang GK? Can you please post the video or tell us where the link is so that we can watch too??
To phi_fan01: bring it on GKWarriors vs PHI!!! m sure our mvp Leo "thebull" would love to match up against your Humphrey Dumpty!!
Herb ok-na-ok sa 'kin!! jsut tell us when and where.
Instead of PHI, pwedeng GK vs Titans na lang?
Titans, baka pwedeng Titans vs TFC rematch..!!!
In my opinion, a TFC vs GK rematch would be the best exhibition game!
Let's see if GK can make a repeat of their win. I DOUBT IT!!!!
TFC all the way ...baaaaybbbbi!!!
To GK lover,
if ever this exhibition match will happen between GK and PHI, i hope you will be sport enough to congratulate PHI at the end of the GAME..because PHI will eat GK alive!!
To GK Herb!!! NAME YOUR PLACE AND TIME... Phi doesn't run away from any challenge!!!
to phiNay,
Really now??? c'mon let's be realistic here. PHI can't even win against the Titans so how did u figure out that PHI will even come close to the mighty GK!! or,better yet, how can you be confident that PHI will not eat our GK dust??
BRING IT ON PHI!!!!
We are working on it (place and time)
If you guys will see the video... WOW!!! GK vs RB; GK vs Origlio; GK vs Excel; GK vs WSA; GK vs PINOY; GK vs TITAN and the championship. Ang galing ng kumuha ng video. Pang professional ang dating. I personaly like GK vs EXCEL.
Kuya Button, we are still editing the top 10 best play para sa video.
scribbs thanks for bringing this back.
to PHINAY
Yadah..yadah..yadah!!! if PHI can beat Redbulls then they can play GK. i suggest, phiNay, that you just cheer for the better team - Red Bulls. becasue PHI beating Red Bulls..that ain't happening, not even in your dreams! So girl, wake up before you get a nightmare cheering for sluggish PHI.
Yadah...yadah...yadah!! all talk and no sting!
herb, when can we watch the GK vs. Excel game?
Mr. Scribbs, thank you for taking the time to restore this forum. I missed it so much. Please continue the excellent work, we really appreciate ur efforts, kahit tapos na liga!
this is for PhiNay:
PHI will never come close to GK warriors but they can surely try. let see what PHI is really made of.
Yes thank you so much Mr. Scribbs for coming back!! PSC and Scribbs rocks and everyone harrassing them just needs to learn how to "appreciate" their hardwork.
I agree with hotredbulls..Yeah forget PHI, they cant even beat us...They are bunch of nobody's..Will, JP, Hump and all of them...The only player worth anything there is Justin..
So how bout the great and fantastic Redbulls against GK? They will not beat us again, we were unprepared the first game of the season against them...They will not score 15pts on my boys!!
So lets go gk! No offense to anyone I hope. This is all for fun and I mean that wholeheartedly..
Sincerely,
Coach K
oops! forgot to ask herb when can we see the GK vs. TFC video?
no more games. the season is over. GK beat every team out there by double digits (with the exception of WSA). GK steamrolled through the competition leaving nothing but ashes and dust behind.
enough is enough. at the end of the NBA season, you never see exhibitions of "what could have been"
that's what the regular season is for.
everyone else should hit the gym and practice hard from now until next season, maybe then you will have a chance against mighty GK!
that's why, mr_count_it_GKW, this league cannot be compared to the NBA because it's not. It is our very own version of a friendly league.
it would be okay for me to accept if GKW is not ready to face PHI because they are in the gym practicing hard. i say it's a better excuse.
to hotredbulls & coach K - you've had your chance with GK and you were beaten miserably. Are you prepared for another embarassing defeat? I suggest you take on Herb's invitation to watch your game video with them. This way you can save face.
^^^^^^^in stealth mode^^^^^^^^^
making sure no unruly bloggers overstep their bounds...
^^^^^^^carry on bloggers^^^^^^^
lol!!!! blog pulis..
I like u'r dramatic entrance, very unque brod!!
****LeBronTuron just entered the bloghouse****invisible mode****
mr. scribbs and psc - thank you for bringing the forum back. I just glanced at paadonline.org kasi walang magawa (lol). I personally miss the saturday games and can't wait for next season. Kaya sa website at blog na lang pumupunta. Sana there's an announcement in e-mail about the blog being up *just a suggestion.
Herb, when and where is the exhibition games going to be held? How can we help? Paki-abiso lang in advance. Saan din mapapanood yung video, nasa YouTube ba? Thank you for the initiative. Galing talaga ng GK makisama!!
This is wishful thinking - sana GK vs TFC rematch or GK vs. Titans (if Steve Antonio is in town para match ang laban).
phi Nay, u better listen to BrewHaKa, if not she may tell you - BrewHaKa_Talaga!
Or you can take mr_count_it_GKW's suggestion, tell PHI to go back to the gym and practice harder so that they can beat Red Bulls, then play GK.
like Coach K said, prove your worth then join the big boys!!!
to coach K who said:
I agree with hotredbulls..Yeah forget PHI, they cant even beat us...They are bunch of nobody's..Will, JP, Hump and all of them...The only player worth anything there is Justin..
Isnt RB a nobody til TFC came along to give u guys a hand? you just got lucky coach k! I won't dare say that RB is worth nothing, yeah you're worth something...something to be ignored! Go join the little leagues maybe you can win an honest championship..!
As of now, I'm thinking it would be in lums pund park, Saturday (no date yet probably after labor day).
Beetoy.... thank you sa tulong. At first, I was just thinking that the celebration is just among the players and families but because there are people suggesting to open it to everybody. Now I'm thinking its going to be open to everybody (family day ba)and games too but I need help not only from my team but from everybody.
Any suggestions?
We also have the video of all our games. I need to clarify some things to our manager about this because he hired someone to have this professinally done. So wait lang po tayo.
^^^^^^^^stealth reminder^^^^^^^^^
Blog Pulis on patrol
warning: no trash talk or dissing!!
keep it civil bloggers
^^^^^^^^stealth reminder^^^^^^^^^
scribbs and psc thank you for the patience and hardwork you put on this blog, even after the league is over. We commend you for your dedication.
I just want to thank Herb of GK for initiating a get-together. I'm rooting for a TFC vs GK rematch. scribbs can we put up a survey on what the fans will go for? I bet you it will be a TFC rematch with GKW that will prevail.
I thought these forum was closed already until someone told me about it tonight and to read all of this?......
to phi nay: I appreciate the comments you made supporting us but I would appreciate it more if you just let it all go sweetheart. No need to fight on, seasons over. No offense and hope you understand. Give the Redbulls the respect they deserved from winning their championship. With TFC or not, the rbs won it all. We helped build that team last year did you know? So no need to say something negative out of our own handywork. And you have to admit we all cant help but be excited for GK after all that theyve been through the past few years? So give them the props theyve earned as well.
To our fans: Please dont get drawn into this thrash talking online. Give respect to everyone here, winners or not. Show your support for us and if you get provoked by another fan or player, just ignore it. Besides we have FACAA to worry about now ;-)
to Karl & hotrb: It was a friendship game, let it go fellas. No one in our team said anything negative about any of you not even one of our fans until you provoked them to. Just let it be, its a game.. a friendship game at that. Its one thing to say something about our game but to single out my players and insult them??? Cmon now, have some respect. Anything else call me directly, enough of this online nonsense. TY.
JP Destreza, Team Capt
PHI Blue Devils
to JP of PHI...
will it hurt PHI blue devils if you guys play GK for an exhibition match? for one, I would like to see this game and not wait for next year. Herb, will GK accept an invitation to play PHI? This is just a friendly exhibition match for the fans. Common guys let's explore the possibilities.
To KArL M of RB, it is not funny to call someone a " bunch of Nobody" in a blog like this, even if you say it's just for fun. It's still offensive. Comments like yours spoil the good intentions of the people who run this blog, as well as bloggers who intend to have fun in this forum. It also turns-off readers who may be rooting for RB,like me. You're definitely out of line, coach K!
To Karl M & hotRedbulls
I saw the game between you and PHI while we were waiting for our beloved Warriors to play TFC in the championship. And I personally think PHI didnt play seriously the whole game against you. They treated it as what it was suppose to be...... a Friendship game!!! I remember their coach watching the game from the bleachers with Jesse of the Titans almost the entire game. They were just chatting the whole time. Their starting lineup with the exception of Hump and Justin only played one half. It was a boring game to be honest since they didnt take it seriously but for you all to brag and insult their players in a nonsense win is just ridiculous. Cmon be better than that. Dont be cocky, im sure PHI would have given you guys something to think about if they took the game seriously. I wish they did now. But im sure your team would have given them a run too.
Learn from their coach JP Destreza. I admire the things he said above in regards to you guys talking thrash and insulting his players. Just have a little class my friends. We are all "kababayans" here. Peace to one and all right?
To Coach JP: Like I said, you are to be admired in the way you handle issues in regards to your team in the forums. We hope to see PHI vs GK. So hopefully you will accept Herb's invitation to play an exhibition game. Mabuhay ka kabayan.
WOW!! Awesome Coach JP, you are a class-act all on your own (not to mention how cute you are, hihi). You handled your critics very well and silenced them all. We hope to see a GK and PHI game. Your team will give our high spirited Warriors a great game. Thank you for acknowledging our teams accomplishments this season. GO WARRIORS!!
JP, I was just responding to PHI nay's comments, who started it all. I won't apologize for my comments because I was just speaking my mind and stating facts in what i believe is a friendly exchange. I did not direct any comments to any PHI individual but to a team and a fan, in particular, PHI nay. If you're offended by it, sorry, but hey, face reality. PHI is always touted as a very strong, talented and youthful team and will always be subject to fan or player comments of all kinds. Just play with a lot of heart and better luck next year!
Go Red Bulls!!!!!!!!!
in defense for phi and jp who has given us so much respect from the beginning. you (hotredbulls)started it all not them. phinay was actually was commenting about us (gk) not you redbulls. youre comment came out of nowhere thrashing phi when phinay commented about our would be exhibition game telling her she should root for you and not her team then you added remarks how "sluggish etc" phi was on a game they didnt even take seriously. it appeared you sounded so upset coz no one is talking about the redbulls now and u wanted to get the attention from them which in turn hurt your team more. you included urself in the exchange of talks between two other teams or fans of their own respective teams. and your coach followed with very sad remarks afterwards for specific players. lesson we can learn from this is no thrashing anyone from now on. lets have peace hotredbulls, how about it?
jp of phi; we hope you accept our invitation to play against you a exhibition game. it will be fun coach how about it?
lol hahaha, i just notice hotredbulls said "I won't apologize for my comments because I was just speaking my mind.." but did it afterwards anyways when he said "If you're offended by it, sorry, but hey.."
lololol i just thought that was funny in a weird and stupid way.
MATALO.. MANALO... TITANS PA DIN KAMI!!!
to "that was funny" and "peace to all" (blah!) :
Haha!! Not funny at all. Stupidity really rests on the interpreter not the interpreted.
Although the comment reads -
If you're offended by it, sorry, but hey, face reality.
It should have been published as:
If you're offended by it, sorry ka na lang, but hey, face reality. apparently, my comments were edited?? not my fault.
I wonder why you guys are ganging up on me when there are others whose comments are stronger than mine. The mere fact that our blog moderators (whoever they are) approved my comments is already an indication that I did not trash-talk or diss anyone. Whether you agree with this or not is not my problem, must be yours.
As I said, I won't apologize for my comments since I was just speaking my mind. If you guys believe that JP's response is a class act, that's your opinion, I respect that. Question is, will you respect my opinion - strong, weak, contrary or otherwise? To the narrow-minded and onion-skinned folks, I guess not.
But hear ye...
When the Titans lost a crucial game to TFC, this blog burned the wires with negative (but not trash talking) comments directed to the Titans. The survey polls even indicated that fans are expecting the Titans to lose against the dreaded PHI Team. In the midst of heightened criticsm that the Titans faced, did you hear their team captain write a melo-dramatic smokesceen response as a sorry excuse for their loss? No!! The Titans did not make any excuses. What they did next is what earned the Titan's the respect of the fans, labeling them the-never-say-die team. Come game time they mauled PHI like lost boys. This, my friends, is what a class-act is to me. Less melo-drama (from superhero Captain Blue Devils), more of redemption by giving their all to win. The Titan's knew that they need to earn back the respect they lost. Did the Titans earn it bacK? What do you think?
If this exhibition match between GK vs PHI becomes a reality, here is what I expect:
PHI to give their all?? I doubt it!!!
PHI to issue another heart-wrenching excuse after a loss?? Most likely, they do it best to look gwapo than winners.
Yes, sweetheart, control yourself. This is basketball, not a pretty face contest.
to hotredbulls:
You just hit the bull's eye babeyy!although i'm not a fan of your team,i actually agree with you.You have spoken in behalf of many observers who decided to maintain their silence in this blog.If you could only see the grin and nod of these faces...you'd be surprised.We've seen great players in WSA,TFC,GK and boy some of them can be cocky in the court but it's all good because they gave us(viewers)the worth of our time and gas.We're beginning to think that FOGATA,BALAGTAS,NICDAO,SANTOS brothers,YANOGACIO,deGRACIA and CLEMENTE bros.don't read this blog...they just play the game.On the other hand,we would see brothers with their posse roaming around after each game acting like they just won a tedious game,displaying their looks (?),although it's better than throwing things at each other...what a temper.In conclusion hotredbulls, a lot of us feel the same way you do...this may not be fair anymore but people talk and words do spread around and you'd be surprised that even people who were never in any of the games are aware of the things you've said.So,let's just drop this and let them humbly learn from their experience.
To HotREdBulls,
What is the point of you yackin' & yackin' like a little sissy!!!???
JP already said, let it go because it's a friendship game. You guys called PHI a "bunch of nobody(s)" Shouldn't you just apologize and put this issue to rest, like what PAAD citizen is suggesting?
Tentative date will be Sept. 27 at WEISS PARK. PHI team what do you think?
Just a suggestion to all bloggers:
Ok, here's the thing -- there's ALWAYS a better way of saying things. We all have that option. We can come up with all these excuses as freedom of speech, expressing our opinions, being ourselves, keepin' it real, blah-blah-blah. BUT, there's always and always a better way of saying things and getting your point accross without snide or carefully placed remarks.
The sentiments of the greater majority stands in this blog, since this is a public forum. Who wants to read about people dissing people? We can all be positive and supportive and disagree without being disagreeable. Again, we all have that option -- if we choose to.
