unbelievable university upshot

this is a delayed post, it should've been posted last week, but as usual, work got in the way...

our officemate texted me from the gym, "check out studio 23." so when we switched channels, we saw it was the 4th quarter, with UP leading DLSU 60-56 i think, but still leading! then it was only 20-seconds left, and UP won, wonder of wonders!

despite my feelings previously on UP's status in the UAAP, i still felt quite giddy for winning this game. it's like finding a P50 bill in your pocket; you didn't know it was there, but it was a pleasant surprise when you get it!

question is, will the taga-UP people be finding more P50 bills in their pockets? :>

How about finding a P50 bill in your pocket after 5 cycles in the washing machine? That should be lovely. Furry too.

think of it this way:

1. we don't bet on our games, since we usually lose anyway.
2. our players don't get to be sent to trips abroad if they win, for lack of rich sponsors/benefactors.
3. it's never played up in UP and everyone's too involved in their own self-contained college.
4. it's a friggin requirement to watch at least one game! it's not a pleasure to watch, it's a duty!

hey, I heard that 3 of the players were from La Salle. Any truth to that?
