Kili Kili Power: Bad news for Pasculado fans, H-Bomb retires
Author's note: now that I think about it, maybe I should have stayed with the "Off the bench" thing since I could always use "Bench Press" for sports tidbits. Then again, there's always that sick/lame/cheesy Pinoy humor to go with so I guess Kili Kili Power works just fine.
A bit of bad news for Julius Pasculado fans out there if long time sports' blogger/writer Snow Badua's Twitter account is to be taken seriously. First, he won't be playing under the great Tim Cone (who was recently released from his contract with the Alaska Aces). Now, it looks like Pasculado's chances of landing a spot with the Aces is up in limbo.
At the moment, the Aces have L.A. Tenorio as the starting point guard of the present (and future, depends on Wilfred Uytengsu who has made a career in suddenly trading/shipping out his star players) with spitfire Bonbon Custodio masquerading as his back-up. In the PBA draft, right after claiming SMART Gilas' Mac Baracael with the 6th pick in the 1st round, the Aces went mini-Ginebra-loco and drafted two point guards back-to-back in Eric Salamat and Fil-Am Pasculado after securing bruiser Ariel Mepana.
Should Pasculado be waived/cut from the roster by the Aces, reports have it that Powerade will extend an offer ASAP since they claim to be the ones who brought him over from the US.

Rumors have it that Tim Cone won't be "jobless" longer than two conferences. Sources have already confirmed that Cone met with top San Miguel Corporation officials and is all but ready to swoop in and coach one of the three SMC teams.
The leading candidate of course, is B-Meg Derby Ace which recently demoted rookie coach Jorge Gallent in favor of assistant Richard del Rosario (who is as raw as they come, not even winning anything big in the NCAA as head coach of the College of St. Benilde Blazers). And before everyone (this writer included) raises hell about del Rosario's promotion over the PBL's winningest coach, take note of his new title: "Acting Coach."
Yep. "Acting." Meaning, he has one conference to show his worth before he slides down to accommodate Cone.

Rudy Hatfield's PBA career is over. According to Ginebra co-coach (whatever the fuck that is) Jong Uichicio, Hatfield won't be making another cameo/ guest appearance this season as he has done the last three to four years with the crowd darlings. I say good for Hatfield, a known bruiser and workhorse whose game has dipped the last season or two (blame it on age/ injuries/ lack of focus).

In a quite humorous twist, top pick Jayvee Casio of Powerade still hasn't signed a contract while 2nd pick Paul Lee has been locked up by Rain or Shine with the maximum rookie contract. I don't know what's keeping the Tigers, but when you pick someone number one overall, you sign them pronto and worry about everything else later.
Or maybe, Casio's on his way to being traded ala Japeth Aguilar's case two years back?
