Hi,
With Filipinos now starting to excel in sports internationally, with the names of Manny Pacquiao in boxing, Efren "Bata" Reyes in Billiards and a lot of new comers, what do you think is the Philippines modern national sport? Is it Boxing, Billiards or Basketball?

Wow! BBB! I would say Online Games!
Kidding! I think with the number of people playing the game, basketball. I dont wanna see people boxing each other anywhere.

Yeah BBB, you can also add Bowling there... =)
So you think its still basketball, yeah maybe, but hopefully we can produce a Filipino NBA superstar someday. =) About boxing, I think there are a lot of new boxing gym in every corner of the Philippines. I think we have a bright future over boxing.

Agree, Online games is starting to be the national sport, but hey i think that we Filipinos are very athletic, we can be great at table tennis, basketball, billiards, boxing, and all other sports. Thinking about it, this post made me proud to be a Filipino. A good smile for the day.
