It is Roger Federer vs Rafael Nadal again in the 2012 Australian Open tennis. How long will the rivalry of these two last? This is their 27th meeting actually, and the Spaniard is up against the Swiss 17-9 in their previous matches.

Tim Howard, goalie of Everton FC in the Premier League, made a spectacular goal that stunned (and embarrassed) Bolton and their goalkeeper.

My sports wishes for 2012 covers a lot from European football to Chess. Here they are:
European Football
2011 may be FC Barcelona’s year but I wish that in 2012, it will be Mourinho’s Real Madrid that will win trophies. I wish they win the Champions’ League, La Liga, Copa del Rey and the World Club trophies.
Philippine Azkals
I wish for the Azkals to win the Suzuki Cup, and be South East Asia’s best football team. May they also find players (and coaches and trainers) better (not just better-looking) than the current team.

Should I join the running craze here in Cebu? It seems like there is either a fun run or a marathon every month. And my former badminton buddies were already ditching their badminton shoes for new and shiny running shoes.

I do like to watch martial arts movies but I haven’t seen much real life fighting tournaments. Yeah, I’ve seen judo exhibitions and a few rounds of teens boxing, but they are, well, exhibitions.
I’ve also seen mixed martials arts (MMA) fights on cable and in some DVDs. I could not forget that replay on the Royce Gracie fights when he waylaid bigger foes like Kimo and Akebono. My current favorites include GSP, Anderson Silva, Machida and Jon Jones. My wife can’t dare watch those fights on TV. She’d turn them off when I am not looking.

I haven’t had the chance to follow the badminton tournaments lately. Even the local tourneys I used to join, I skip them for one reason or another. But a lunchtime conversation with a friend, in which he was very animated describing the badminton game he watched on TV, sparked my curiosity.
I know the days of the Kennievic and Kennie are gone already. It’s the teenagers that ruled the badminton scene these days. And our country’s best young shuttlers entered the 2011 BWF World Junior Championship held in Taipei, Taiwan.
