Why Manny Pacquiao Should Not Be a Role Model
Every Pinoy blogger I know has written a post about Manny Pacquiao specially a week ago, after his victory against Juan Manuel Marquez. Much of these posts are crap. A pathetic form of cult worship to an undeserving big-head who himself feels like he’s a modern day hero.Here’s a list of seven reasons why Manny Pacquiao should not be:- He’s dumb. I know he grew up poor but even unschooled Pinoys can speak an English word or two. You can’t be a role model if you don’t have brains, dumb-dumb!
- He can’t keep his feet on the ground. Is it just me, or have anyone else notice that his recent victories made him a big-head? He always trash talks his opponents unlike when he was just starting up. He seem to be more tactless than Kris Aquino recently.
- He thinks he’s a modern day hero. Dude, winning a boxing match does not make you a hero. Stop talking about doing it for the Filipino people. We know you’re just in it for the money.
- He’s an adulterer. I can’t figure out how someone who don’t give women due respect falls into the role model category. It’s like saying Paris Hilton is the poster girl for virginity.
- He doesn’t know his limitations. He thinks he can be congressman and ran for office in the last elections. Even his money did not make him win. People knows he’s a joke
- He added to the demise of the entertainment industry. My god this man thinks he’s a good singer and produced his own album! I don’t even know why people loved it.
- He thinks he’s cute. Lol! he should stay away from commercials and movie deals. He looks more like a member of a terrorist group. Need I say more?

Great analysis on Manny Pacquiao.
Curt’s last blog post..Great Online Tech Shopping!
Hey, Manny Pacquiao is a boxing icon. I think that was a moronic review to say the least. Is he being worship? Yes of course as a phenomenal athlete. He wasn’t elected to office and his movie flop, simply because people don’t think he’s that much worth it except to be a great athlete. Look at yourself in the mirror. Us who posts regarding his achievement should not be insulted by you. If you want attention for yourself, please don’t do it at the expense of other people. I’ve seen people like you. Full of crap for that matter. I hope you have enough balls to apologize.

Lots of bloggers go to the extent of calling him a hero or a model to the youth. Even teachers at school teach their children about Manny’s feats and encourage them to follow his footsteps. Even the government likes to portray him more than just a boxing icon.
I don’t mean to malign any blogger who posts his achievement. I only pity those who makes him messianic.
With due respect, I don’t think I need to apologize to him or to anyone who feels affected by this post. Somehow, some bloggers just needs to be proven wrong.
Well, everything is yellow to the jaundiced eye. Crap, like beauty, is in the eyes of the beholder or perhaps the beholder himself is crap.
Oops.

As a person I would agree he should not be idolized but as an Athlete then that’s a different thing.
Filipinos know better, just look at his movie, it tanked and he didn’t win in the last elections.
Me an my wife don’t like Manny because he is a gambler, a bully, a womanizer, etc. but we cheered for him in his fight against Marquez.
A great person does not make a great athlete and a great athlete doesn’t make a great person. Just my thoughts…
Melo’s last blog post..Kristin Davis Sex Tape?
I totally admire him as an athlete. No question about that. I even bought my dad and I tickets to watch his fight on the big screen. Even went to Cebu to do it. hehehe
I love the guy as an athlete. I just hate it when bloggers overstate his prowess. heheh
Manny should just stick to boxing because that’s where he is good at but I feel that his decision to move up to lightweight won’t be good for him. Did you see how big that Diaz guy is?
I hope we see a Marquez - Pacquiao 3… Marquez was really good. As much as a cheered for Manny but if I was a judge I would give the match to Marquez. Good thing I was not. LOL!

People admire him because of what he has achieved. It should never go beyond that.
good points! i have great respect and pride in him as an athlete but his other “conquests” (gambling, the girls on the side..) keeps me rollin my eyes..
keep it up! great blog by the way..

money and fame has definitely got into his head.he’s a hero, yes. he unites his countrymen every time he has a fight. they rally behind him but that ends there. he should know his limits. he should know his boundaries. he should know where and when to stop.
as an athlete, manny deserves the admiration. he’s focused and all but his personal life is different. he’s very far from being a role model.
how can I make a person a role model if that ‘hero’ is a gambler, womanizer and most importantly, politician’s pawn?

I think you’re just jealous!
What quality of his should I be jealous of apart from his prowess in boxing?
