We Are the Champions

Yesterday was another milestone in the world of sports. Our very own Manny Pacquiao once again proved he is unbeatable in the boxing arena. It was an incredible win by Pacman against Shane Mosley. Most importantly, it was a crime-free day in the entire country on May 8, the very day the fight was staged in Las Vegas, Nevada. The win made us all proud to be Filipinos

Pacman in action!

In another note, I was so brokenhearted last night. Barangay Ginebra Kings wasn’t able to stretch the series to Game 7 in the Philippine Basketball Association Commissioner’s Cup . While TnT fans were obviously in jubilation, I was very disappointed with the turn-out. I give the credit to the TnT players nonetheless for never refusing to lose heart in upstaging a huge comeback to overcome a 15-point lead by The Kings in the third quarter.

All’s well that ends well. It’s a good thing I didn’t suffer from heart attack, LOL! The game was extended in overtime giving my heart erratic beats.

In another side of the world, the Dallas Mavericks had a sweep  of the Western Conference Best-of-7 Semifinal series against the two-time defending Champion, L.A. Lakers. The Mavericks will advance to the West Finals. How sweet!

This week’s Music Monday shall be anchored on the victories of those who excelled in their fields, especially to our very own, Manny Pacquiao! You’re definitely the man!

WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS

I’ve paid my dues –
Time after time –
I’ve done my sentence
But committed no crime –
And bad mistakes
I’ve made a few
I’ve had my share of sand kicked in my face –
But I’ve come through

We are the champions – my friends
And we’ll keep on fighting – till the end –
We are the champions –
We are the champions
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the champions – of the world –

I’ve taken my bows
And my curtain calls –
You brought me fame and fortuen and everything that goes with it -
I thank you all –

But it’s been no bed of roses
No pleasure cruise –
I consider it a challenge before the whole human race –
And I ain’t gonna lose –

We are the champions – my friends
And we’ll keep on fighting – till the end –
We are the champions –
We are the champions
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the champions – of the world -
