Though not a true blue sports fanatic, I am acquainted
good enough to enjoy sports. During college days, I used to compete
in campus journalism press conferences as a sports writer, thus, the blithe
knowledge of the playing fields. I have had fun reading or watching sports news
not until yesterday.
The riot in Argentina spawned by the victory of Filipino
boxer Johnriel Casimero left a bitter aftertaste welling from my
throat. To say that it was an unfortunate incident is an understatement. It is
very barbaric, a quick reference of Argentineans' lack of discipline and a
display of their stupid “power tripping.” This is a solid irony to the spirit
of sportsmanship.

| CASIMERO VS ARGENTINEANS: Pinoy Pride Assault |
My blood is at its boiling point. These people are
so immature not to accept a defeat. They are shameless fanatics who
misrepresent the boxer they are rooting for. Were you hard headed pea-brained
fans stupid enough to assault our Filipino pride and dignity when the gloves
you are behind just humbly receded at his lost?
This is alarming. Not for the purpose of
braggadocio, I am proud that the Filipino race has produced some of the finest
boxers ever lived. If this is envy then I pity you!!!
Boxing is a one on one fight if you haven’t
realized. WTF! So you thought you could win by numbers? You could throw
monoblock chairs, we know that. Come to the Philippines and we will throw Narra
tables at you. But don’t worry because we Filipinos are humble enough not to
fight cave men as you are. We will not step down to your level.
This unprecedented mishap could have ended the
boxer’s career if struck by a fatal blow. The apologies made will not even up
to the shame, to the moment lost which could have been spent to celebrate
success and most of all for trampling at the Philippine flag. These people
should be penalized. I so wonder why the Argentinean police or the coordinators
of the event did not have enough power to control the mob. Shameful!
Kung sabagay, punong may bunga lang naman ang
binabato. Sana naintindihan nyo!
