The Sentosa Finals

May 26, 2007, 10am - The Sentosa Cup Finals

Welcome to Siloso Beach, this is the long awaited Cup Finals between 2000 Tiger Gang and 99E Five Stars Rangers. It will be an intense Captain Balls match (modified rules - unlike the original game where someone stand on a chair to grab the ball to score, this will be a free-scoring game, anyone who stand behind the scoring line and catches the ball from a team mate scores) . We have been waiting for 7 years for this Finals to happen. Yes... Can you feel the electricfying atmosphere? And hear this, the fans are chanting "Pineapple! Pineapple! Pineapple!" (ops... self advertising again)

This is a derby match! Both teams had an intense rivalry since the days in Jurong Institute (high school - A Levels). The 2000 Tiger Gang are the students from the year 2000 batch, this gang was formed when a bunch of repeat students met each other during PE lessons. What is interesting is that 2 of them belongs to the original 99E Rangers. (Pineapple Tat & Wierd Tiger)

The 99E Rangers are the 1999 student batch. These 5 guys are from the same class, the only 2 reasons why they eat during canteen break is because they are hungry and they want to look at girls. Interestingly, all of them has different tastes, so no conflict of interest.

OH! Here comes the line-up for each team.

2000 Tiger Gang
Mr Gump (SW - Sweeper):
The only foreign import in this game, Mr Gump holds a high rank in NCC and continues to help in school, outstanding enough to represent school for NCC activities. Crappy and fearless.

Mr Big Tiger (PM - Playmaker):
Easily the tallest dude in the game, he stand at an impressive height of 1.8+m. He comes from the school bowling club. Deadly sense of accuracy and height advantage when going for the high balls. Big and useful.

Mr Little Tiger (RW - Right Wing):
His lean and atheletic frame makes him a born runner. He is from the school's running club and is crazy about running. Great fitness and always makes tireless runs. A born winger. Boylishly fit.

Mr Sporty Tiger (LW - Left Wing):
A natural sportsman, he is from the school's bowling club. Once won a gold medal for the school's yearly sports day for long jump. Good agility and speedy. Sportily good.

Mr Wise Tiger (FW - Forward):
Determined and have a winner's attitude. He is good at badminton and great at smashing (I know because I got smash by the ball a few times). Determine winner.

99E Five Stars Rangers
Mr Sun (DF - Defender):
First look and you will think he is a hunk. His big frame is suitable for muscling out opponents for the ball. Good drinker and likes to play mahjong. I am not sure how this helps in the game. A player to look out for.

Mr Nose (DF - Defender):
First look and you think he looks like Jackie Chan (Chen Long - KungFu star). Has prove himself to be a great goalkeeper at the NUS Arts & Soci Cage football. Won the runner-up medal in the 'A' Division Field Hockey for school. Look out for his kung fu.

Mr Pineapple Tat (PM - Playmaker):

Won the runner-up medal and champion medal in the 'A' Division Field Hockey (sorry Mr Nose, got 1 more medal than you). Represent secondary school in chess tournaments (chess is also a sport). Clever and talented. :)

Mr Alien (FW - Forward):
Tall and lanky. He is good at billard and pool. Show his apptitude in getting small balls to go into even smaller holes. Good at fishing too. Amazingly accurate and able to sense (fish) the right moment. An intuitive player.

Mr Weird Tiger (FW - Forward):
A good-looking guy. An attribute good for players to have (so even if you are lousy, you still have fans). Used to be in the school hockey team with Mr Nose and Pineapple Tat. A good-looking player.


Let the dream finals begin!

Well... The Sentosa Finals will still happen. I will just add in the girls on that day. Wohoooo!!

The 2nd Luckiest Person In This World

I always tell Ms K I wanted 4 wives.

As there is no perfect woman in this world, I think we can find it in 4 women,

The Fashion Model wife
We all want to have a trophy wife, admit it. The glamour kind, the one where we can bring to show off to our friends.

The Sporty Wife
The cutest and bubbly of the lot, the one with the tanned complexion. Her ethusiasm and optimism for life will influence you in a positive way. Her playfulness and adventurous spirit makes the relationship exciting.

The Housewife
As much as we are the modern cavemen (read: work and take care of yourselves) of this era, we still want someone to take care of us, to fuss over our appearance, to cook for us, to take care of our kids and to stand by us no matter what.

The Career woman
Intelligent, sophisticated and articulate. This is one capable woman you can't mess with, yet admire her for her confidence. You can talk about anything under the sun. Emotionally and financially independent, you do not have to worry about her and she gives you freedom.


Why am I writing about this? Because my female friends are always complaining that all good men are married and attached. Since there are so few good men, let the good men (includes me) have more wives. So we can share our goodness and love around.

When I tell my female friends this, they say "Do you have the money or not to have so many wives?" My reply? "I don't need money because they will be the ones feeding me." That is why one of my wives will be a career woman. It has all been thought out. So don't worry for me guys.

Oh and Ms K's reply to me was, "Ok lor, go ahead." Since I am tone deaf and inept at reading body language, I take that she is agreeable and totally behind this.

I am the 2nd luckiest person in this world. Then who is the luckiest in this world? My 4 wives..... Because they have me.
