may be special, though surely not in the eyes of the law – not under any circumstances.
Doubtless Obiena is important in his own right, but, by the nature of the issue in which he has been found in the wrong, that’s beside the point. In fact, his claim that he is the one actually wronged is egregious, ludicrous, and delusionary. The records are plainly clear. Still, atonement would have opened for Obiena a chance at compromise, but not only did he double down, he even went on the offensive, and, did so publicly, with a case that until then had been handled discreetly by the Patafa. He went to the press and, without giving so much as a reason, let alone evidence, accused the Patafa of harassment. He went on to complain that all this trouble was jeopardizing his drive toward the fulfillment of his great promise.
It seems inconceivable that the POC is unaware that it’s going out on a limb for Obiena. Not only is its boy facing a rather watertight case, it has no jurisdiction over the Patafa, or, for that matter, any of the other sport associations seeing to the development of Filipino athletes.
Ferdinand Jr. is running for president, and the polls have him as the frontrunner. That means, if the polls are anything reliable, he has a far greater force behind him than Obiena has the Philippine Olympic Committee — and this notwithstanding his conviction for tax evasion, which is supposed to disqualify him automatically from running for public office.
Please review your articles. In one of your articles, PATAFA is not truthful. In this article, Obiena is not truthful. Which is which?
