Do you know filipino mylotters, that I used to be a purefoods fan? I really hated ginebra when I was young because of the way they play and their attitude when it comes to losing. All I can see from this team is that they are war-freak. The play basketball very physically to the point that the other players from the other team get hurt.
When my husband became an employee of this company, I began to like the team little by little. I began to open my eyes and realize that the team has a lot of fans because of their attitude. I used to think that their attitude is an arrogant one. But no, I came to realize that their attitude is a never-say-die attitude who will not stop trying until the game is over.
Now I understand you guys, the baranggay ginebra fans, why you love this team so much.

I am not really a fan of Barangay GInebra but I would like to commend on their attitude from the Jaworski Era until now of their "Never Say Die" attitude. This attitude was passed from generation to generation and until now it is the attitude that the new players of Ginebra had shown.

Yeah, the fans also today are 3rd generation already. Ask young fans why they are a fan of ginebra they will answer that their father used to be a fan or their uncle.

Yeah, that is true. Ginebra is also an exciting team to watch because of its toughness and firepower.

I also do understand Barangay Ginebra fans. I also love the way they play. The never-say-die attitude. The come from behind victories. And other reasons why Ginebra has the most number of fans. But I'm not 1 of them. I'm an SMB fan since I started watching PBA. I think my whole family is an SMB fan except my father, who is siding always with any team other than SMB.

I so love Brgy. Ginebra since i was in grade 4. My father is a big fan of Ginebra. I watched Ginebra with my father almost every game. I used to have an argument at school when someone says something bad at Ginebra players specifically to Vince "The Prince" Hizon. I guess he was the reason why i love watching basketball back them and also i was able to spend some quality time with my father. My whole family, from cousins to Uncle to my brothers and sisters all love Brgy. Ginebra. We love them because everyone loves them. One of the main reason i can say would be the never say die attitude. They will never give up, they helped each other and i love their tandems like The Fast and the Furious. The fans love them so much. You can see it when you watch the game, almost all of the viewers are Ginebra Fans. . . or should i say Ginebra Fanatics. I miss watching their games. If i could have few wishes... i will choose to be able to watch the game live with my father. He would really like it. I promised him that when i visit home soon, i will take him to the game :) Hope you are having a great day and i will appreaciate if you can give me some updates about our team. Thanks.
