Philippine Dragon Boat Team vs. Azkals

Points of comparison : 

1. Philippine Azkals are good looking players and young as it is literally represented by the Younghusbands while the Philipppine Dragon Boat Team members belong to the typical pinoy beauty and are fairly born ahead of time- although not all. 

2. Azkals has Angel Locsin while Philippine Dragon Boat Team (PDB) has something that I don't know.

3. Azkals went on several media created hype before each game while PDB is concentrating on its century-old paddles fit for a hallowen. 

4. Azkals are financially and morally supported by celebrities and politicians while PDB is taking all the criticism and biases out there. 

5. Azkals engages and enjoyed several paid ads on TV while PDB finds it difficult to even be featured in an ordinary campus magazine. 

Now lets go to performance:

1. Azkals ranked 100+ in their chosen sport worldwide while PDB belongs to the top 10 globally. 

2. Azkals is a threat to Sri-Lanka while PDB is a real "pain" to the world's dragon boat racing teams. 

3. Azkals tends to ride the "SEX SCANDAL" issue to glorify themselves while PDB ride its own boat to give glory to the country. 

4. Azkals earn balls while PDB got golds. 

5. Azkals employs so many excuses while PDB endures and conquered a lot of worries. 


In sum, sports can not be won by simply smiling out there while endorsing Soy-sauce and Vinegar. The same way as gold medal can not be reached in sport by just linking yourselves to the Pinoy Celebrities. 

Let's face it, we are a bit carried away by the looks of the Azkals and are not equally concern to the face value of the intention of promoting the sport in our country.

Performance and achievement is what we are looking for, for no matter how great the shape of your face is, it will and cannot make a free kick for a goal.  

Azkals its time to set your priorities now if you want to excel in your chosen sport....
PDB Team, keep it up and continue giving honor to our country, we are proud of you..
