BIg Mouth Mayweather Sr. Strikes Again!

Like father, like son.

And Floyd Mayweather Sr., estranged as he may be to his son, thinks Junior will knock out Manny Pacquiao if the mega-fight ever happens.

And, in his loudmouthed opinion, the only thing keeping the fight from happening isn't his son's obvious cowardice that Junior inherited from Senior but Manny's Pacquiao's history with PED's.

Oh wait. Manny Pacquiao doesn't have one. Let's just put it down to the legendary Mayweather stupidity.

Azkals 4, Nepal 0!

Matthew Hartmann added another goal in the 89th minute as the Philippines totally dominated the game against Nepal, a team ranked 31 spots above the Azkals.

Congrats, guys!

Azkals 3, Nepal 0!

First it was Phil Younghusband with a strong kick from a brilliant assist courtesy of Paul Mulders!

Then it was a brilliant long shot from brother James to make it 2-0.

Then it was Phil Younghusband again with his second goal of the match!

What a show from the Younghusbands, Mulders, Cagara, Caligdong, Burkey, Borromeo, Araneta et al!

Paul Lee: Star In The Making?

Once again, it was the Paul Lee show.

Paul Lee scored 19 points and was on the floor during the most crucial stretch of the game to help Rain Or Shine lodge a 96-93 win over the Powerade Tigers.

Jeff Chan also exploded for 19 points while Gabe Norwood logged 11 points.

The Elasto Painters' defense also played a key role, limiting Tiger gunner Gary David to just 14points, after David scored 31 points in the Tigers' last game. Doug Kramer led the Tigers with 16 points while Marcio Lassiter scored 12points.

Japeth Aguilar: Monster on the loose?

27 points, 8 rebounds 2 steals and 1 block.

That could easily be the stat line of a PBA import. Except that it's the stat line of one Japeth Aguilar, a seldom used Gilas player in the last FIBA-Asia Championships and former #1 PBA draft pick who demanded a trade so he could play for the national team.

Aguilar highlighted his dominant performance with a tomahawk dunk over former Gilas teammate Jason Ballesteros, serving notice to the PBA that he was certainly back with a vengeance.

More importantly, he led Talk N Text to a 98-80 win over sister team Meralco, despite the absence of three key players, Jimmy Alapag, Ranidel de Ocampo and Kelly Williams.
