Happy Columbus Day! Coincidentally, if you follow the Julian calenday, it was on the 12th that he set foot on the New World. That translates to the 21st on the modern Gregorian calendar. I know most of you are enjoying the holiday, but I am as well.

I am still on a high from a championship sealed with a salute and a kiss.

Sealing a back-to-back for the first time since 1987-88 is a great thing. Now plans are afoot to seal a third straight title in 2009, despite losing three reliable players, including the last two Finals MVPs. We have the necessary players who can contribute in the pipeline. We just had our bonfire to celebrate the wins of our GS, HS and college teams to end the first semester.

This is the final minute of the said game:

This is how we celebrated in the court on that fateful moment

And so the positive feelings and vibrations move on and I hope your alma maters achieve the same success as mine has.
