Updates Along The Sidewalk: June 9, 2013

Just a quick update since, it has to be quick.

   I won't be posting as much from now on since classes just opened here in the Philippines this past week. The workload will start to rise come next week, so I might not even get to tweet as much by then.

  I will still try my best to post, although the content that I can provide won't be as in depth compared to what I would write back then. I will be writing a FIBA Asia Draw review in a couple of days (albeit a very late one), and some UAAP previews.

  Till then, you can check out the archives to go through some of my past articles!

Some expect you to go ahead and dominate in an instant. Jonas Tibayan...
