    so few now.. I remember years back, we have representatives for basketball, taekwondo, a few (but not just two) in swimming and track & fields, equestrian, fencing, and gymnastics..and now just 11??? Tsktsk..looks like we are losing lots of sports fanatics/enthusiasts in Philippines.

    Isn't basketball in the Olympics? I'm sure they could teach the Yanks a thing or two.

    Good luck anyway Philippines

    Can you get Aksyon TV ? They seem to have a half decent Olympics schedule.

    Actually I caved in and signed up with Cignal only to discover that the best sports are on PPV

    I've been on the phone with Cignal today. They follow the line of all 'local' call centres in that they answer questions you didn't ask instead of those you did............
