00:00 My team pressed the line up that we want.
00:05 But you don't know the rules.
00:07 You didn't get briefed.
00:08 From now on, we will highlight all your mistakes and we will not punish you.
00:16 You know, we had a problem here in the Philippines, in this Asian Games.
00:28 We were overlooked in our preparation for the Asian Games.
00:32 Because we were so obsessed with the World Cup,
00:36 we knew that we will not have hope.
00:39 If you remember, a few weeks back, I said that we should prioritize the Asian Levels because this is our continent.
00:46 We should impose weight here because these are our level.
00:52 If we nominate them, and we look at the higher levels,
00:57 this is the problem.
00:59 We gave a list and we will suddenly release a new one.
01:04 This should not be the case.
01:07 Do you know why?
01:08 Because we are not kids.
01:10 That's why you are sitting there, you are the professionals.
01:15 You are the ones who know.
01:17 It is the responsibility of the National Sports Associations
01:21 to know the rules and the responsibilities of the National Sports Associations
01:30 to know who will be available, competitive and valuable when the tournament we will be hosting comes.
01:43 This Asian Games did not happen suddenly.
01:47 It did not happen suddenly. You said, "We will have Asian Games next week. You should list it."
01:51 This is not like that.
01:53 The Asian Games should happen in 2022.
01:56 It has been extended for a year.
01:58 We were given a chance to improve the lineup that we will be giving.
02:05 We did not have a good transition from the MVP group,
02:09 to San Miguel, or there are the papers.
02:12 It is up to you.
02:14 My team pressed on, "Here's the lineup that we want."
02:19 But you did not know the rules.
02:21 You were not briefed by the former members.
02:25 That is what is saddening here.
02:29 This is the problem with the Asian Games.
02:31 It is one of the many problems that we are facing here in the NSA.
02:42 So, Al Panlilio, if you are listening now,
02:45 and if you are still in control of the SBP, please remove them.
02:51 Do not bring those people back.
02:54 They are all fat.
02:56 From our World Cup campaign,
02:58 and Coach Chotre, I thought I was done with Chotre.
03:02 From our World Cup campaign,
03:04 until it ended, people got angry.
03:07 "It's good that we won in China."
03:09 "But they are making us lose here and there."
03:12 "It's their fault. They are injured. They have personal problems."
03:15 Why don't you accept your shortcomings?
03:18 Why don't you admit that you made a mistake?
03:22 You don't have to be smart in front of people.
03:26 You don't have to be good at English.
03:29 You are like humans.
03:31 Do your job right.
03:34 Your body is your priority.
03:36 The Philippines is embarrassing.
03:39 Do you know why?
03:40 We already know the rules.
03:42 You passed, you cannot change it, and then we will be appealed.
03:46 What does that mean?
03:47 We look stupid.
03:49 If the Philippines is given,
03:51 other countries should also be given.
03:53 And if I am the organizer, I will not do that.
03:56 How many member countries of the Asian Games?
03:58 If you give one, you will give all.
04:01 If you give the Philippines in basketball,
04:04 you will give the other in cricket or other sports.
04:07 So, it's time for those who are sitting in positions.
04:11 I will tell you this,
04:12 I will borrow the line of Boss Mike Enriquez.
04:15 Even if our haters say that we are your trolls,
04:18 we are your coaches, we are good.
04:19 This is what we will tell you.
04:21 From now on, all your mistakes,
04:24 we will highlight it, we will discuss it in the spin.
04:28 And we will not punish you.
04:31 Because we need to think
04:33 how will our system be good here.
04:35 We are just all about making people famous.
04:37 We want to make people famous,
04:39 we will do it all at once.
04:40 So, all our sports officials,
04:43 not just in basketball,
04:44 to all the NSAs,
04:46 let us prioritize our work first
04:49 before anything else.
04:51 That is the only solution there.
04:54 Boss Al Francis, if you are the one who will sit,
04:56 please remove your voices in the SBP.
04:59 We always have problems,
05:01 we always have this.
05:02 Sometimes you will fly like this.
05:03 We traveled for 16 hours,
05:05 that is why we are tired.
05:06 Why don't you know the place,
05:09 the map of your game
05:11 and you will complain that you traveled for 16 hours.
05:14 Why did you get tired in 16 hours?
05:16 Oh my.
05:17 So, that's it.
05:18 I hope this won't happen again.
05:20 I hope this will be the last time we will highlight this.
05:22 I hope this will be the last time
05:24 that we will complain.
05:26 Because even our viewers
05:28 will get angry.
05:30 We are always complaining.
05:32 How can we not complain?
05:34 We always have problems.
05:36 After this,
05:38 we will not get angry.
05:39 I hope we will not get angry.
05:41 I need to check my BP.
05:43 Thank you.
