THE WAY WE WERE: I first covered the Philippine National Men's Football Team in 2006 in Panaad, Bacolod. This photo was taken at the Mizuno office in Magallanes, Makati. This is where I first became friends with these guys. Glorious glory days, brothers. From left to right: Phil Younghusband, Chris Greatwich, Matthew Hartmann, me, Phil Greatwich, James Younghusband, Henry Brauner, and Louie Casas. There are a bunch of others who are not in the picture. Honestly, I can't remember why they were not all in the pic. Hahaha. I still have that football signed by the entire team. I still have that red jersey that they wore from back then. Chris used to call me "Mr. Solar" back then. Hahaha. That's because I was still with Solar Sports then and we covered the Azkals for two tournaments. And I began to write about them at the same time. I still have the DVDs of their matches then. I managed to save them when Typhoon Ondoy wreaked havoc on my apartment.
