OT: From A Bulls Fan from The Philippines. 

Post#1 » by Bulls Forever » Thu Nov 14, 2013 4:32 am

I just wanted to post this. As a lifelong bulls fan from the Philippines and in behalf of all thefilipino bulls fans especially those whose lives were lost and devastated by typhoon yolanda, thank youso much coach eric spoelstra and the miami heat organization and micky arison for helping us through your financial aid to the filipino people.

Coach eric is at the forefront from the NBA family calling out for aid for the philippines. The heat have pledged $1m. While coach eric and the NBAPA have pledged $500,000

for all the rivalry and hate on the court aside, the filipinos appreciate and we will neverforget. Thank you Miami Heat. Much Respect.

Mods, pls dont lock. Thx.

As a person who's half-Filipino with lots of family still over in the Philippines, thankful for Coach Spoelstra, and the Heat organization for what they've done with helping out the relief efforts.

Thankfully, all my family is safe over there, but my condolences to all who lost their lives in this terrible storm. No one deserved this storm.

We'll all get through this.

Being a pure Filipino in the Philippines, I can't even attempt to watch TV this past week. Such devastation for those affected with that typhoon. You'll see nothing but the terrible aftermath of it and people desperately needing help. I sincerely am thankful enough that I live in Manila so I'm far from harm. My thoughts and prayers go out to everyone. Huge props to coach Spo and the rest of the NBA/Heat Family and other countries for giving out some help. :)

Hopefully, things clear up soon and the relief effort helps the affected people in the Philippines. Props to the Heat and Spoelstra for stepping up and contributing to a good cause. Classy as always.
