UAAP S87 . Women's and Men's Basketball

 November 9, 2024 

- Women's Basketball (FEU vs Ateneo / UE vs UST)

- Men's Basketball (FEU vs Ateneo / UE vs UST) 

Gem can't make it today and since I was staying in Cubao that weekend so why not wake up a little early and watch the women's basketball since I do watch it at home at some time and I witnessed how UST won the championship last season. 

I love it since there are only few people who are watching the women's games and it was a very different ambiance compare to men's. 

I learned and somehow realizes some stuff that I don't usually just see or observe during men's and I was enlighten really to the deeper side of basketball. I've been trying to figure it out somehow and learning about the side of coaching so I'm somehow discovering the other side in a good way though. 

One more reason why I decided to watch the women's is because of someone but I don't want to be tagged as a stalker, one way or another I enjoyed watching the women's. Probably just guess that "someone". haha! Also, basketball is my usual escape.

Fast forward to the men's it is one of the best games to watch and to be seated at the back of the bench is always a treat. We won against Ateneo which was satisfying since there are times that if it is Ateneo, you will not win automatically. There was some season where we only watch live a game against Ateneo just to see if we can beat them. I don't know about you but there's somehow a silent rival between FEU and Ateneo and it's good to witness that once in a while. 

Even there's still have a few seconds left and seeing the bench rejoicing, everyone's happy and just enjoying the win for that day. I somehow caught in on video and it's one of my favorite. 

I really planned to watch the second game between UE and UST then maybe leave at the half but then even I'm got sleepy during the game, I was awaken with the bad officiating and the intensity of the game. I was hoping for UE to win but then their overall score is already the score of a single player of UST, I know it is possible for UE to win unless another miracle in the end. Though before that happened UE was slammed with foul here and there then the unsportsmanlike foul on Momowei. A win of UE will somehow open a small window for FEU to still have a chance for Final Four

Such a good day to have some basketball day for myself.
