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.

Powerade RP dumps Kazakhstan


The Philippines, improving with every game, bounced back with a huge win against Kazakhstan 85-67 for their first win in three matches at the 31st William Jones Cup in Taipei. 


Running at every opportunity now that they had everyone back in harness (including Jay Jay Helterbrand), the RP Team blitzed the slower Kazakhs and got several highlight reel jams from Japeth Aguilar who finished with 11 points. 

On the defensive end, the Nationals' zone was almost impenetrable. 

Philippines 85 - Miller 15, Aguilar 11, De Ocampo 11, Yap 9, Thoss 8, Norwood 7, Helterbrand 7, Baguio 6, Raymundo 6, Santos 5, Dillinger 2, Taulava 0

Kazakhstan 67 - Dmitriy 23, Alexandr 16, Rustam 12, Vselovod 12, Ivan 2, Roman 2, Ilya 0, Voyeikov 0
