BLEACHERS BREW EST. MAY 2006

Someone asked me how my blog and newspaper column came to be titled "Bleachers Brew". It's like this, it's an amalgam of sorts of two things: The bleachers area in the stadium/arena where I used to sit when I would watch baseball, football, and basketball games and Miles Davis' great jazz album Bitches Brew. That's how it got culled together. I originally planned on calling it "The View from the Big Chair" that is a nod to Tears For Fear's second album, Songs from the Big Chair. So there.

The Road To One

Beginning next Wednesday, we will be posting the official Collegiate Champions League Power Rankings. A concerted effort by BTV and various college basketball scribes all over the country. There will be two -- the Metro Manila and the provincial. For the metro, that will include all the leagues from UAAP, NCAA, NAASCU etc. The rankings will be featured in most newspapers as well as online basketball sites leading up to the Collegiate Champions League.


The group working on the rankings includes the Philippine Daily Inquirer, the Philippine Star, Manila Bulletin, Business Mirror, Manila Standard, Taliba, inboundpass.com, Basketbolista, Pinoyexchange.com, and UBelt.com among others.

League Commissioner Rey Gamboa says that the SBP will be fixing the basketball calendar soon. That means we will have a cohesive and more organized structure. Huzzah!
