                    [Title] => Beach dream
                    [Summary] => Summer was over before some of us even got a taste of it. With the sudden barrage of rains, it seems like the vacations are over. Unless, of course, you count people who live in a world where summer is just beginning.


Ten years ago, football coach Mike Athab had a dream. Originally from Iraq but now firmly a part of Philippine sports, Athab saw the growing potential for beach football. They played in the rain, in the heat, and just about anywhere that they could find sand, just to promote the sport.

[Summary] => KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia – Palm Sunday, yesterday, turned into "Good Friday" for this disappointed sports aficionado. I saw my two idols bite the dust on the same day, half a world apart.

[Summary] => If Formula One’s 2004 calendar is any indication, then Asia is motorsports’ hot item, racing’s the place to be, the season’s new black, so to fashionista speak. That’s because two Asian countries — Bahrain and China — will take the spots vacated by two venues that were staples in the F1 calendar. One is Montreal in Canada, where the races are held at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve and named after the F1 star and late father of ’97 World Champion Jacques Villeneuve. The other is Spielberg in Austria.
