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.

UAAP Men's Basketball Season Reviews: La Salle and UE

If I look at La Salle’s performance this past UAAP season, it mirrored their summer campaign — they got by early with their small ball then when took a bunch of losses late before ultimately crashing. They lost five matches in the second round; devastating ones.

How do we rate UE's season? Sure it is disappointing because everyone wants to book a Final Four slot, but with a practically different line-up, they competed and sure put the fear of Derrick Pumaren’s trademark fullcourt press on every team.
