Integrity-Teo: Honest truth about Round 2, coupled with unobjective opinions.

Alright Kids! The article that you've been long camping in the blog, tearing your hair out for, has landed. Yours truly, LTA Integrity-Teo, has his sights set on special individuals today and this piece is most definitely not a pleasant one.

Last weekend team's performance was certainly eventful if not bemusing, suspect and physically damaging. Not for the first time ever, we've had a questionable player being the sole cause of disgusted faces, trespassing players being chased out of the shower facilities at the indoor football grounds by dodgy individuals and the rather surprising outcome to Round 1 of the commencing Fantasy 6-pack League-oddly defying the tip given by the most learned of all touch football punters, 'Justice' Chan.

Before we get cracking, here's a big up to the rookies-Akio and Alex having burst their try-scoring cherry last weekend. May your try scoring turn habitual and may it in turn score me, some much needed Fantasy Points.

Now lets do away with the pleasantries.


Pick of the Round
Sore. Just one word to cap my feelings about my pick as Fantasy Captain.

A dissapointment, odds are high that he will receive the drop from most Fantasy Managers.

Its hard to accept that Toh-the rising star-would even be considered for the award. Being one of the most consistent, responsible performers and leaving behind any off colour emotions before he crosses the sideline onto the field. He represents the safest "choice" for even the most pessimistic of all tipping analysts.

His background conjoined with the intense lobbying from the Fantasy Fridays Crew, resulted in a natural belief that was instantly turned into shock when Toh nervously uttered "eh i forgot to bring my jersey, can use this blue one or not?"

Collateral Damage
Cannot. Toh played 8 mins before being politely asked to sit out for the rest of the game by touch judges-none of whom could forgive and look past the different shades of blue. Yes, its a tremendous task.

Nonetheless, every action has a reaction and the covering players 6-pack side did admirably well despite having players who were still far from full fitness.

Failed Empathy
Though Terence apologised for his actions or rather lack of to be exact. He proudly claimed after "eh i did well considering, I only had 8 mins and I scored one try and an assist." His braggadocio dissapated into "no comment", the moment he became aware that yours truly was listening intently. Yes rule 1. anything you say, can and will be used against you in the blog.

Not walking the talk
Rule 2. "Anything you say, you do. Anything you say and you don't do, can and will be used against you in the blog". 


"Terence and Taufiq said they will score from every quickie" Yanyi Kang(left), while commenting on a quickie involving the said personnel. Note that same quickie did not result in a try.


We certainly have Yanyi to thank for stepping up and giving an on camera testimony against Terence & Taufiq. Video will soon be made available.


Proving that Democracy works when manipulated the right way.
 "Camel" Toh, the self given moniker "Talentoe" and finally "Choice" Toh are some of the nicknames fairly attached to the quick footed, steppy, tights wearing Terence. However, after last week's fiasco, we can safely say that more unsavoury terms such as "bu" Toh, "kepala Bu" Toh, "ccb" Toh has been added to his freshly expanded library of labels.  You are the dick of the day.

Fantasy 6-pack: Controversy Befalls Round 2

After the farce of round 1, one could have safely assumed that Adam Chan's forced leave of absence by the powers that be, would have encouraged discipline and injected some balance to the force. However, controversy continues to surround the 6-pack side as a number of suspicious events took place prior and during the game against Blue Thunder.
Too Much Pride Ong
Last week, we produced a rather favourable-which is unlike the nature of yours truly-article on the Ong. Caleb had announced to the world that he had "too much pride" to go down with a calf injury in the first minute. If 'pride' were to be a quantifiable figure, then we would derive a conclusion that Ong's pride while it is "too much" for him, is not enough for us. Ong's Pride<What was Expected.

Last weekend, the fantasy grapes on the fields of turf city was just excrutiatingly sour/bitter to chew on. However to cast doubts on the, church going Ong's integrity would be highly impulsive and awfully presumptious. We reject the notion that Ong would betray his well-serving Wingman, widely known to many as God.

The Suggestion(Jinx from Down Under)
This leads us to negotiate a tricky path of an intangible known to many as 'Superstition'. Now some of us have practices which can be considered Superstitious, such as keeping a lucky coin etc. Others may have more acqquired practices, such as Gideon's addiction to sniffing or Yum's insistence on maintaining his infamous Reverse Pyramid Hairdo(Making it look like he has a bigger head, thus a bigger brain. So he says). Nonetheless, I am digressing. What we actually should be discussing more about is, a jinx, or rather the unintentional jinx aka curse, hex, the evil eye and the more colloquial term, SUAY.

We can safely assume that as a collective whole, the 6-pack side is not Superstitious. So when a misguided fan, made a dreaded comment. The powers that be simply brushed aside that remark as nonsense, which is logically the right thing to do. Never again. From now onwards, all comments will be scrutinised and judged accordingly and players will be actively encouraged to either seek divine intervention or to do what our mothers do. 'BUANG SUAY'.

Buang Suay
n. Local Slang To actively rid oneself or others of a jinx,curse, evil eye and bad luck by engaging in our mother's superstition.
Eg. Flower Baths(Mandi Bunga), Rearranging Feng Shui, Hair Cut, Rubbing Salt on the body.



Flower Baths also known as Mandi Bunga, according to expert aunties advice, an excellent tried and tested, method of buang-ing the Suay.


There lies one curse, no amount of 'buang suay' can rid your fantasy team of. That fellow managers is the "Choice" Curse.

Shedding light on the choice curse will take some testicular fortitude, which this reporter readily admits that he does not possess enough of, right now. There will come a day, sometime this week, when I have enough alcohol in my blood stream to undertake such a risk.
