[Title] => MBA blow-up on the horizon?
[Summary] => The loose ends of the MBA are starting to haunt them. A month after the league announced its surprise closure, the Olongapo Volunteers, Cagayan de Oro Amigos, Pampanga Stars and Pangasinan Waves desperately sought to know what had happened to the two month’s pay owed them.
Representatives of the five teams asked this writer to accompany them on an unannounced visit to the governing Multi-Regional Basketball, Inc. (MRBI) board meeting last Tuesday to ask when they would get paid.

[Title] => MBA Players at Coaches Naghahabol
[Summary] => Naghahanap ngayon ng paraan ang mga naulilang manlalaro’t mga coach ng Metropolitan Basketball Association upang makolekta ang mga suweldong di nabayaran noong liga.
Habang nagpaplano ng susunod na hakbang ang namamahalang Multi-Regional Basketball, Inc. o MRBI, nag-aalangan ang ilan sa mga naging bahagi ng MBA kung kailan sila mababayaran.

[Title] => Death of the MBA?
[Summary] => The MBA, as we know it, is gone. The operating Multi-Regional Basketball, Inc. or MRBI, has finally stopped the economic hemorrhaging by ceasing its current National Phase.
It was an open secret that players’ salaries had gone unpaid since end of April or early May. Some teams had, in fact, already decided to stop playing until their back wages had been paid to them. But very few were as lucky to have found alternative livelihoods as Chris Clay, who has been forced by circumstances to seek employment as an import for Sta. Lucia Realty in the PBA.

[Title] => Grassroots program ng MBA totohanan
[Summary] => Hindi lamang sa salita ang Metropolitan Basketball Association ukol sa grassroots development, gusto nitong masangkot dito, direkta man o hindi.
Isa sa mga pangunahing desisyon na ginawa ng pro league sa pagpasok ng 2002 season ay huwag magkaroon ng team na nakabase sa Metro Manila para sa season na ito, dahil sa ang national capital region ay mayroon pang dalawang liga na naglalaro dito nang full time.

[Summary] =>
The Bureau of Immigration (BI) ordered yesterday the deportation of a
Filipino-American basketball player found guilty of making a mockery of the
Philippine national anthem and the national flag.
Immigration commissioner Rufus Rodriguez said Matthew Gaerlan Mitchell, who
plays for the Cebu Gems in the Metropolitan Basketball Association, was ordered
to leave the country for being an undesirable alien.
Rodriguez said Mitchell was deported for singing and dancing to the tune of
Star Spangled Banner, the American national anthem, while the Philippine anthem
was being played.
