basketball is the number one sport played dito sa pinas, however some of us lack the height requirement needed to excel in this sport.. i love soccer, i've been hoping that we will be a football country someday; although soccer is mostly played by most pinoys in iloilo, bacolod and negros, but most of the other regions dont even know the basic rules of the game.. the pinoy physique is built for soccer.. yep! football is a beautiful game, and i share my fondness of the sport with you..

Football is such a very wonderful sport that requires running, kicking, coordination, stamina, strong teamwork and presence of mind (well, i don't know what aspect i missed).
Way back in college I used to call my football Varsity friends as "cyborgs" because they can run so fast, they've got strong physique... and they are always happy about life. They play football rain or shine.

no wonder Pele, the greatest football player, called this game "a beautiful game."

Have you ever heard of Spud Web? He was around 5'3" and he could dunk the ball. Think of that and your height won't bother you ever again.
