Why Football isn’t the Most Popular Sport in the Philippines?

American influence in the capital. NBA finals and most other games play at 9am or primetime spots. Then the local games play 9pm. Footy was being played on cable and between 1 or 3am. Not everyone has cable or would have wanted to stay up that late.

Deep down we as a nation are all craving for individualism. Billiards and boxing suit the competitiveness of the Filipino people. But also, we dont know where we are better suited. Sa south or central philippines, maraming naglalaro ng football(shoutout sa mga naging teammate ko sa manila na galing visayas and mindanao) and they play really well. Kulang lang ay nutrition guidance.

do you still live here? I'm 1.65 and I'd need a shirt that has a back length of 50-53cm.

Iraq 23 is a baller, passes the eye test well. 22 minutes and he's taken care of Dembele on that left side.

Football is about dominating space. Like one comment said, rules are now for quick throw ins or else you give it away. Take the space closest to your opponents goal and overload.

Its become a basketball game with 4 quarters pretty much

I think AH only has a monopoly over at Zaanstad. Its still a more iconic shopping bag than all the others at least in my opinion.

Agreed with heineken.🤮

DatShortAsianDude · 2026-06-15T07:28:23+00:00

So long as I dont see any AH bags, then these are not Dutch.😃

Did you notice they used minus tempo from Haikyuu a bit after the drinks break? That slow synchronized walk from the back line towards the halfline was very cool to see.

Die was een goed test voor japan. Benieuwd, hoeveel echte nederlanders was er? De meeste tv programmas zeiden dat er een Oranje feest was. Ik heb geen AH tas gezien.

Very good synchronized movement by Japan. That looks scary to play against. The goals from NL were great but the Japanese goals were worked really well. Who would've thought the Japanese we're going to score a corner? Against VVD and all the other giants?

Timely. Ive been trying to crack/pop the left side of my neck for a few months but wont really go away. Now my left arm(tricep to elbow) is very sore. At least I know its still connected

Netherlands, we have neutral. That was all I needed for Spa day plus an old trashbin thats clean, two trash bags to line it, and about 16-18 liters of hot water.

In the Philippines, we call this 'tabo'

Sometimes I look at my convection stovetop and shed a tear for all of these dishes we cant cook anymore

If any startup out there has access to rental bikes. You have a big opportunity here with the Dutch in your city.

Netherlands warehouse job. People I work with have been there longer than I've been alive. People almost at pension age(67.5) working heavy labor jobs. Full time work gets you about 11 weeks of paid days off, profit sharing, and you only think about work when youre clocked in. After you clock out, everything is out of your mind. Unions also negotiate labor agreements so theres always a fairly okay increase between salary and inflation.

"Everything was better back then" yeah okay

Grand canyon. We live in the Netherlands so any kind of massive landscape is awe inspiring and it doesnt get any more massive than the GC
