Win Or Lose..... A Commentary on La Salle

This forwarded email starts with:

hmmm ...this has been going around.  see you at the bonfire.

(btw neither did DLSZ claim their 3rd prize trophy at the awarding
ceremonies last saturday.  as if their school rep to the uaap was unaware of
the schedule of activities...)

all the best,

joel


The main message starts here:

THE REASON WHY LA SALLIANS (la sallites, archers, green mob, idiots)  CANNOT UNDERSTAND (among countless other things) OUR PHRASE-- 
 "WIN OR LOSE IT'S THE SCHOOL WE CHOOSE" 
 IS BECAUSE THEY ONLY KNOW "WIN OR WIN OR FORGET IT"
AS DEMONSTRATED BY THEIR SNOBBING OF THE UAAP  AWARDING/MEDAL CEREMONY FOR 2ND PLACE.
 
CALL THAT SCHOOL PRIDE?
IT WAS A HUGE SCHOOL EMBARASSMENT! !
 
PRIDE IS WHEN YOU ARE BIG ENOUGH TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND APPLAUD
 THE VICTORIOUS AND NOT STAND THERE  SHAKING YOUR HEAD AS THE WINNING TEAM SINGS THEIR ALMA MATER (AS IN THE CASE OF MAIERHOFFER) .
 
PRIDE IS WHEN YOU ARE IN TEARS WITH YOUR LOSING TEAM ( AS WITH THE JC/MACKY/DOUG FAREWELL) AND WHEN YOU THANK YOUR GRADUATING PLAYERS FOR THEIR YEARS OF EFFORT INSPITE OF DEFEAT
 ( AS WITH FORD & ZION).....  IT IS NOT IN WALKING AWAY AND HIDING IN THE DUGOUT AS WITH POOR GRADUATING CAPTAIN
JAYVEE CASIO NOT RECEIVING THE TEAM TROPHY AND MEDAL FOR HIS LAST PLAYING YEAR AND BEING GIVEN ONE LAST ANIMO CHEER.
 
BUT WHAT DO YOU EXPECT WHEN YOU HAVE A COACH WHO SAYS "AFTER
9 YEARS OF BEING IN A CHAMPIONSHIP I'VE NEVER SEEN WORSE OFFICIATING"
(in those 9 years, has it ever ever been completely fair for either side???...welcome to the real world!)... MAIERHOOFER PROBABLY LEADS THE LEAGUE'S STATISTICS FOR TRASHTALKING AND JUST GOT AWAY WITH IT...UNTIL NOW.
 
PUMAREN TALKS ABOUT HOW HIS PLAYERS COULD NOT DELIVER WITH THE OFFENSE AND TALKS ABOUT WHAT THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO DO
. ...BUT DOES NOT ACKNOWLEDGE HOW THE EAGLES SIMPLY OUTPLAYED THEM
WITH SUPERIOR DEFENSE AND HOW NORMAN JUST OUTSMARTED HIM BY SHUFFLING HIS BENCH BETTER THAN HE DID...AND IN THE END JUST SHRUGS BLACK OFF BY SAYING HE STILL HAS ONE MORE UAAP VICTORY THAN ATENEO.
 
WIN OR WIN..... THAT'S THE TYPE OF PRIDE THEY INSTILL OUT THERE-- THE PRIDE OF ARROGANCE, SELF-RIGHTEOUSNESS AND VICTORY.
 
 THAT'S WHY THEY HAVE ROOKIES LIKE L.A. REVILLA FLASHING DISGRACEFUL GUN-FINGERS AND LAUGHING  AT FEU PLAYER MAC BARACAEL IN THE FINAL 4 (AS SEEN ON YOU TUBE).... INSTEAD OF ACKNOWLEDGING THE INJURED PLAYER'S BRAVE COMEBACK AFTER BEING SHOT.
 
 WE STAND ON A HILL....
THE PLACE WHERE EAGLES BELONG.
TO BE CLOSER TO MARY OUR PATRONESS,
WHERE WIN OR LOSE WE STAND BY OUR PLAYERS, OUR TEAM AND OUR SCHOOL.
 
WHERE VICTORY IS SWEETER BECAUSE IT IS A LONG ROAD OF HARDWORK, PATIENCE AND MOST OF ALL,  OF FAITH.  WHERE BELIEVING MEANS STANDING BY YOUR GUYS THROUGH THICK AND THIN, BAD CALLS,AND ALL--
EVEN IF IT TAKES 5 LONG YEARS.
 
ARCHERS WIN BY PIERCING AT THE HEART WITH ARROWS
 WHILE EAGLES SOAR WITH THEIR HEARTS.
 
AND THAT MY DEAR FRIENDS IS WHY PEOPLE STEP ON THE GREEN GRASS BELOW AND LOOK UP TO THE BLUE HEAVENS ABOVE.


Akin: Kaya sa Ateneo talaga ako.
