Thursday noon was another written day in the history books. Switching gears, as Micheal Cole once said, we just ended a new chapter and will be writing on a new one; and we're talking about administrations of both Presidents Benigno Aquino III and Rodrigo Duterte.

But first, let's take a rewind to six years ago. Where were you on 30 June 2010?

Change Is Coming?!

05/14/2016 10:42:16 AM

Gaya ng kanilang slogan ng pangangampanya, change is coming. Darating na raw ang pagbabago. Dahil andito na raw ang magpapasimuno nito na si dating Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte.

At totoo naman, dahil pagkatapos ng eleksyon na ginanap noong Lunes a-9 ng Mayo, taong 2016, ay hindi na siya alkalde ng pinakamalaking lungsod sa Pilipinas, kundi pangulo na siya ng bansang Pilipinas mismo.

Back to the Octagon!

Perhaps we have seen this before. Like more 16 months in the making. Do you remember when this guy was on the verge of having his contract expired that his championship reign was already been booked with a period on it?

Bigwas Pa?!

06/26/2016 01:05:34 PM

Draw ang resulta sa isang maingay na bigwasan na naganap kagai sa Valkyrie. 

Oo, draw ayon sa mga hurado. Unanimous draw nga eh, 19-all ang iskor sa labanang Baron Geisler at Kiko Matos. Kaya humihirit na lamang ang mga 'to ng isang beses pa na maglaban sila sa URCC cage.

Bigwasan Na!

06/23/2016 11:53:41 PM


Sa totoo lang, parang isang malaking sports entertainment ang nangyayari dito eh. Ang pinagkaiba, hindi ito sa isang wrestling promotion ginanap. At hindi naman sa minamaliit ko ang sport na yun ano (hoy, avid fan kaya ako ng professional wrestling, no?), pero alam mo naman ang nangyayari kapag pinapairal ang ideya ng machismo.

06/22/2016 01:02:31 PM

It was a blockbuster Sunday night at the United States as the world of sports and entertainment had put up a massive heavyweight treats (and it actually came in threes) in time for Father's Day. People worldwide had been waiting for a new episode of Game Of Thrones, while at the Bay Area and Ohio, thousands witnessed the culminating game 7 of an epic finale showdown between the Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers.

And here at Las Vegas, professional wrestling gambled all in for the World Wrestling Entertainment's annual special event known as the Money In The Bank.

Revenge and Ascension to the Throne

06/20/2016 06:07:50 PM

Emergence. This is the word that described best about LeBron James. After being a choker in the past two NBA Finals series as the leader of Cleveland Cavaliers, James carried his team back into the biggest stage of professional basketball world and all the way til they reached the pinnacle of success, the NBA Championship! All that despite being almost buried down in the deep midway through their best-of-seven semifinal series against (and again) then-defending champs Golden State Warriors.

OPM is Dead? Try Fete de la Musique!

06/17/2016 05:54:58 PM

Sa mga nakalipas na taon, ito na lamanag ang isa sa mga nakakairitang diskusyon sa mundo ng social media. Ito kasi napapala kapag mahihilig na lang tayo tumanaw sa nakaraan at hindi ma-appreciate ang kasalukuyang mga bagay eh.

OPM is dead, ika nga raw. At ang sinuman na nagrant nito, hinamon pa diuamano ang mga hindi sumasang-ayon na kasuhan siya.

Talaga lang ah? OPM is dead?

The Scene Around: SM City Marikina Indiefest

It's interesting to see the mall giant SM taking one step in appreciating the country's music scene, especially in their 30th year in the business. And while Beatstroked proved they could handle such events at the Eastern side of the Metro (Taytay, Rizal, to be exact), Marikina was the stage to showcase the up-and-comers during that fateful evening of Friday, 20 May 2016, as SM City Marikina celebrated Indiefest Summer Music Festival

The Rundown Slam: WWE Extreme Rules 2016

It's about time the World Wrestling Entertainment has gone beyond control. Talk about revolutionary where the underdogs stepped its way to revelry. Where an emerging club dares to take down the bloodline of the top empire. Where a reckoned force gets its way back domination. This is when the WWE gets extreme, and it's literally called Extreme Rules. 

But did the WWE Extreme Rules 2016 paid extremely well as the second pay-per-view of the new era?

The Pre-take: 2016 NBA Finals

I know it's been quite late to do this. Two games have passed by, and we have seen the utmost and the unquestionable domination of the defensing champions. Perhaps, a 3-1 deficit at the Western Conference Finals served them as a wake-up call; keeping their hopes of making history (on a good note) alive and salvaged themselves from marking a bad one. (After all, who would like to see a 73-9 winning team go to waste in the battle for the representation of the current's most dominating conference at the NBA?)
