It's time to kick ass and chew bubble gum. And I'm all out of gum.
I know you were just quoting Gary, I did read the article, I don't judge you at all.
But Manny is one of the 'good' things to come out of the Philippines. He is recognised by every fillipina wherever he goes. He has a strong character and does more for the people in the philippines than it seems the government do. He gets mobbed where ever he goes and gives loads to charity. Even as an outsider looking in, he is quite an ambassador.
Hi Steve. Have you been watching TV in the Philippines these last 2 or 3 years? reason I ask is, Mammy is advertising evrything he can!
On one break it's shampoo next will be jolliebee so on and so on, from my point of view he is giving credence to nothing he is being used to advertise, or greed on his behalf?
He is not the only 'star' exploiting there status, film stars advertising hand washing soap, for goodness sake, what is that about? can you imagine his yaya hand scrubbing his pants? NO I can't either, or maybe I can if I try hard enough.
I'm afraid bull$itye for the masses.
It's a pity Mammy sold out, a great fighter, I agree, a statesman, I think not.
Only my humble oppinion folks
It makes absolutely no difference to me but you were not simply quoting this geezer but reacting to his observations.. This is what you wrote..
"I thought it was a clever observation about the place. "Manny is the only thing PI has got for it, and sex tourism. "
Although Manny is popular,there are many people here awaiting his next loss which I put down to crab mentality caused by deep routed jealousy of his success.. Thats the Philippines!!
This DJ obviously has never travelled outside of the US and like many Americans is very insular and frankly just another dumb Yank..
If the world champion (and worse,pound for pound champion) is NOT American then they will start bitching about it..
Everyone knows Mayweather is a damned coward and is very much afraid of fighting the Pacman.. This guy has to attack Manny and the whole of the Philippines as if to defend his Mr Gayweather...
A bit pathetic if you think about it.
Dont get me wrong Steve,Ive got some good mates here that are Yanks..Have to say that the ones I know are obviously well travelled and you dont get this type of crap from them..There are the odd ones floating around from the deep south that still display the usual inbred characteristics..One I met was a real KKK man.. This one really took it the wrong way when I asked why he married an Asian woman!!
Funny lot if you ask me.
