the decision has been made and keola has had their day in court. although i must admit that i do not entirely agree with the punishment that was given as i think that it was merely a slap on the wrist, let me add that i do respect the said decision and me and my team will abide with it.
let us now let the people have their say with the incident because it is my very own opinion that the said team does not understand the gravity of the infraction that they did. in doing what they did, willingly or unwillingly, they showed utter disrespect for their opponents (not only our team), the organizers that have worked so hard to facilitate this league, the rules that govern the tournament and the game of basketball. what makes y'all think that you can get away with such actions?! that you are above the law?!!
i understand that we are all here to win but at what cost? i dont mean to be righteous but i just find it distasteful for a team to go to those lengths just to win. it undermines the other teams' efforts to build up a disciplined and good-enough squad that will be able to compete fairly in this league. regardless of what reasons, what happened was bad for the league and it really messes up everybody's efforts to make this league a better one.
with that being said, padayon ta ug dula, magtarong ta ug dula and may the best team win.
