Topsy turvy!

It's been over a month since i last updated my blog!! Geez, what a better way to make me start blogging again is that the political universe of both the Philippines and the US, the NFL, and the NBA have endured shocking developments that will definitely have a lot of repurcussions in both the short and the long term. The Philippines just endured a leadership change in the house of representatives. Barrack Obama and Hillary Clinton are locked in a historic two way race for the democratic nomination. John Mccain is looking to get the Republican nomination. The New York giants shocked the world and proved that nobody is indeed perfect by beating the new england patriots. The LA Lakers aquired Pao Gasol and dumped Kwame Brown. The Suns now is diesel powered with Shaq in while the Matrix is out.

I just wanna give my two cents worth on the Speakership change. JDV rode the back of the tiger when his son accused the Arroyo family of corruption in the ZTE deal. At that point, mr. yoda should have gone out of his own terms instead of reminding everyone how they are indebted they are to the former speaker. anyway, kudos to Speaker Boy Nograles.

The NBA season is begginning to be more interesting as the Lakers got Pao Gasol for Kwame Brown, Jarvis Crittenton and Aaron Mckie. Well, Pacific Division rivals the Phoenix Suns did a better stunt. They brought back Shaquille O'Neal to the Western conference. The way I see it is this. Before last week, I thought that the top 10 teams in the West each are capable of winning the west. It's too bad that only 8 will qualify for the playoffs and all will depend on playoff seeding and matchups. Now will Pao Gasol wearing the purple and gold and Shaq in the Valley of the Sun, it gives the Lakers and the Suns the edge to win the West. Gasol will make the Lakers have a fearsome frontline when Bynum comes back. Shaq will bring interior defense, championship experience, and most importantly avoiding a situation where Marion leaves them without the Suns getting nothing. Of course, we will still see the results come May. But until then!
