Ano nga kaya noh? Syota mo boksingero. Me mga kilala kasi ako, type nila gwapo. Na medyo bastos. Yon bang, paduduguin muna labi mo… taz romantically whisper sila sa tenga mo nang…

“Sweetheart… bili mo nga ako nang yosi!”

Ok. Tama na. Baka mamaya, ma-misread ako ni Manny, makatikim ako nang isang pitik at Zzzzzz. Eh buti kung Zzzzz, eh kung “I’ve fallen and I can’t get up?” Eh di napadali visit ko sa nursing home?

What I’m saying is that, ang ganda nung article sa New York Times about Manny Pacquiao. I mean, this will really endear him senyo. Sabi:

On a recent visit, while Pacquiao slept upstairs, one member did the laundry. Another surfed the Internet. Yet another sprawled on the couch, his booming snores interrupting another otherwise peaceful morning for Team Pacquiao. “They’re all competing to be golden boy for the day,” said Freddie Roach, Pacquiao’s trainer. “Clean his pool. Take his shoes off. They will do anything for Manny Pacquiao.”

Sana kunin din ako ni Manny. Mag-blog lang. Pramis, di ko sya iistorbohin. Eh sabi kasi sa article, mga dysfunctional den daw ang Team Pacquiao. Swak na swak ako. I live the spirit of dysfunctionality. Bata pa ako.

Na-awa ako. Kelangan nya pala nang companionship. Pwede talaga ako. Blogger lang nya.

Pacquiao craves companionship, seeking comfort in numbers. He said he likes good company, which explains why he sleeps in the condo while the sprawling house he owns nearby sits mostly empty, leaves in the pool, ants in the kitchen.

Kaya lang, baka mahataw ako nang isang kamao dito nang mga kasama nya.

They say they must fight to prove themselves, and while they do not mean this literally, sometimes fisticuffs occur. Recently in the Philippines, two members of Team Pacquiao, the adviser Michael Koncz and the conditioning coach Alex Ariza, came to blows over the coveted corner slots for Saturday’s bout.

One big trait na magugustuhan nyo? He’s a very good employer. Nakaka-touch! Pucha! Parang gusto ko na sya ibotong President now na!

He once sold doughnuts on the street. So when Ramos suggested they find less expensive alternatives for washing his car, noting that Pacquiao paid a man at Wild Card Boxing Club in Hollywood, where he trains, $200 three times a week, Pacquiao warned Ramos never to eliminate the job of someone trying to earn a living.

Pero, eto ang nakakalungkot…

The downfall of Manny Pacquiao, if there is one, will be his kindness and generosity,” Koncz said. “At some point, I fear that’s going to catch up to him.”

Oo. Mga kabarrio. The big fight is mamaya. In fact, nanga-wala na ata mga tongressmen sa Manila. Nov. 14, Pacquiao, is gonna be fighting Miguel Cotto for the welterweight title. At pag nanalo si Pacquiao dito, history sa seventh weight division, a record. And get this, garantisadong merong syang $13 million. Can you imagine kung ilang pulitiko ang nakaka-smell nyan?! Tandaan! Election is coming to town! Ang kawawang Manny, gagamitin na naman. But I wish Manny success. I’m sure mananalo ka rito. Good luck!
