Aljon Mariano Breaks His SIlence on Twitter
After Game 3 of the UAAP Finals, Aljon Mariano was the target for a whole lot of internet hate. All of this was because he missed the potential championship clinching shot and threw away the ball in an all important possession. Form there, the internet was filled with tweets and FaceBook posts became beyond foul. To some extent, it was getting ridiculous.
Mariano then changed his twitter profile picture and banner to nothing but a black image and stayed quiet for a few days. You really cant blame him for doing so.
Then, the silence was broken.
The tweet included a picture with a message to the world. Here was what it said.
Thank you sa mga sumama sa journey naming this season. Sa mga sumuporta, nagtiwala at nagdasal hanggang sa hull. Were really sorry lalo na ako sa mga nadisappoint naming! Lalo na dun sa mga halos nakikipagpatayan makanuod lang ng live. We fell short but I’m still grateful coz it’s still a great journey, ang daming pinagdaanan hung team naming pero di kami sumuko, buo man kami o ndi, lumaban kami sa bawat practice at lark. May time na things were not going our way talaga, nag 3 game losing streak kami pero nag regroup kami bumangon kami from no.6 dumaan kami sa butas ng karayom para umabot sa finals ayun nga lang di namin nakuha ang championship. Siguro sobrang blessed na kami sa sunod sunod na do or die games kaya di na naibigay sa amin. Am so proud of our team still! Kayong mga sumusuporta sa amin ay part ng team! Maraming salamat sa inyo! God bless you all.
Dun naman sa issue sakin. Unang una salamat sa mga patuloy na naniniwala at nag defend sakin. Sorry dun sa mga na disappoint ko naintindihan ko kayo kasi kahit ako di yun yung inexpect ko na laro ko this season. Buong season up and down. May mga factors pero ganun talaga nagdesisyon ako maglaro eh. Ndi ako nakapag deliver at may mga desisyon ako that cost us the championship. Ganun naman yun. We have to take risks at doon tayo matututo at titibay. Madami akong natutunan at nalaman dito di lang sa basketball. Move on! Learn from it and bounce back sabi nga nila. Di pa naman tapos ang lahat. Basta, I am and will always be proud that im a Thomasian! Buong puso! Kita kits next year. ONE FOR UST!
We here at SLAM have already said that we stand behind Aljon on our latest episode of SLAMRadioPH. Keep your head up and come back even stronger. See you next season, Mr. Mariano!
