Welcome to the Talk 'N Text Fan Blog

This blog is dedicated to my favorite team in the Philippine Basketball Association - The Talk n Text Tropang Texters. I have been a loyal fan since the team entered the league back in the 90's when they are still under the name Mobiline Phone Pals. I will be customizing this blog for the coming days and hopefully I will be able to start posting articles very soon. So all Talk n Text fans out there, feel free to contact me (click the envelope button under the social profile section) so we can share ideas and views about our favorite team.

37th PBA Leo Awards Winners

Its just so different watching PBA finals without Talk 'N Text Tropang Texters in it. They were strutting their stuff last year against the Petron Blaze Boosters to try to chase that rare grand slam feat. They were so close to bringing home the Governor's Cup trophy only to falter in Game 7. It was such a heartbreaking loss for the team because I know they fought really hard to win the series it was just not meant to be.  Now I am watching...

What An Amazing Run

It was tough seeing my team lose their game last night. I was not prepared to see them end their season just like that. I thought they will be able to chase their 6th straight finals appearance but I was wrong. They fell short in the last few seconds of the game. It was a tough game for them; they practically bled for every point. None of them were able to have fiery touch maybe because it was not meant to be. The Talk ‘N Text Tropang Texters finished...

Jimmy "The Mighty Mouse" Alapag Interview

From the time that he was drafted 10th overall pick by the Talk ‘N Text in 2003, I have been a fan of Jimmy Alapag. With his impressive debut in the Philippine basketball scene, he eventually won Rookie of the Year that year beating out the first overall pick Mike Cortez and his team mate fourth overall pick Harvey Carey for the award. His on-court partnership with former MVP Asi Taulava slowly changed the fate of the struggling Talk ‘N...

On A Hot Winning Streak

After losing to Rain or Shine in their last elimination game and dropping their first semi finals game against BMeg Llamados, the Talk ‘N Text Tropang Texters are now again back to winning streak. The team is currently on a three game winning streak after beating the Rain or Shine Elasto Painters yesterday. For the second straight games, Paul Harris delivered the goods for the team. He scored 34 points and had 16 rebounds to help the Texters...

First Semifinals Defeat

Paul Harris made a history by scoring the first basket in the newly constructed MOA Arena and Jimmy Alapag was the first one to hit a 3-point shot but B-Meg became the first team to win in what could be the newest home of many basketball tournaments here in the country. It was another tough loss for the team who showed a lot of intensity in the first half but can’t seem to maintain the momentum going into the second half. B-Meg were playing...

Rising Higher by Kelly Williams

Kelly Williams is now a certified author! He just released his first book called “Rising Higher”. It was officially launched last June 28, 2012 at the Fully Booked Bonifacio High Street. The event was attended by his team mates and other personalities. Kelly is not only an athlete but an inspiration to many after all. I am excited to grab one copy when it hits store here in Davao. You can follow the official account of Rising Higher. Good news...

Semifinals: Here We Go

It has been a while since the last time I wrote a blog post. I am just a little busy with my work lately. I wanted to write but I can’t seem to put my thoughts into writing. Well, it’s just proper to get my thoughts going because it is semi finals time. I am just so happy right now to see Talk ‘N Text Tropang Texters made it to the next round. After being at the bottom of the standings, they came out strong and winning four consecutive games,...
