July 29 -Rizal Stadium Turf
Aptly Sub-Titled .....
[ Green Archers vs Stallions Tune-Up Match ]
[ Bakit Naman Napakaraming Pictures ni Chukie Uy ?]
Earlier today [6 am onwards] I went to the Rizal pitch to visit the Green Archer football team figure in a tune-up match. {My nephew ---who I last saw, about 5 long months ago - when DLSU had to "swallow Silver", after a heartbreaking [1-0] loss to the FEU Tamarraws--- was THE ONE player I was most excited to see}.
Assuming that the Archers were slated to match skills versus another college team - I was pleasantly surprised to find out that it wasn't any college team - but rather, the Stallions FC ->a UFL Team whose UFL matches I've been officially shooting - the past sev months.
On weekdays, the Stallions FC usually trains at the Turf at BGC
[This time it's Rizal, for a change]

No Real Reason
Chuckie just seemed to be "omnipresent" - at one point during he match
One of my better action images [above] this morning shows Nikko Villasin {in white} clearing the ball. Like Hector, Nikko is currently playing for the Stallions FC, but come the UAAP - He'll prioritize his commitment to the Green Archers above all else
[Borromeo scores the second]
On the side .....
I jokingly stated to Green Archer AND Stallion Hector Borromeo

----- who is still to finish his last playing year for the DLSU Green Archers / he is currently playing for the Stallions in th UFL Cup and League - FYI, the UAAP Football Season commences early 2016 ---- {In the tune -up match, he suited up for the Archers} ----
that that early during the tune-up match I already did know the spin [context] I intended to put on my {this one!} blog feat on the Archers/Stallions tune up match -
-----Being aware of the FACT that I was there at the match for the Love for my Nephew - and the FACT that I get paid to shoot the Stallions FC's UFL football matches
{and even tho, obviously this was Not an official match, by any strech the imagination} -
And since both Nace's DLSU Team and Stallions FC Coach Ernie Nierras were playing against each other
THAT I was on the the Rizal pitch that morning "for the Love and for the Money !"
In a Manner of peaking - Right ?! -
tho, as I stated - I was Not getting paid for any tune-up match images - no biggy
HEY - I just want my Titles to be "not boring".
HEY - I just want my Titles to be "not boring".

Yup, as stated I was at Rizal pitch earlier today - to reconnect with Raphael Inigo, a young Archer [on his 4th playing year] - who IS my Favorite Nephew - [Next 4 images below]
Come end of October [when the Archers fly to the UNI-games in Bacolod] - Coach Hans Smit will have whittled down the Green Archers UAAP hopefulls - to a core group of 15-20 ....
Surely, some of these eager hopefuls will be disappointed and disenheartened.
But {dare I say} - If one really does love something - a sport, an advocacy, an art form - or what have you - one will find a way to persevere - to keep one's dreams alive - and eventually achieve them
Doing something for the Love of it - and not caring wether one earns from it - that's OK
Doing something purely for the money - that's still OK.
Doing something for the Love of it AND Getting Paid for it - that's even Better.
Doing All of the Above - That's what I've been doing the past several years.
The "trick" is to get to do as much of the third scenario as possible.
-> For the Love and for the Money
