Guiao to call the shots for Burger King
Updated January 08, 2009 12:00 AM
Yeng Guiao and Mikee Romero
National coach Yeng Guiao, who recently resigned as Red Bull mentor, has accepted a two-year contract to coach Burger King which takes over from Air21 in the pro league effective Jan. 15.
“In principle, it’s done. I have reached an agreement with Mr. Mikee Romero representing the Burger King group,” Guiao told The STAR. “We’re just finalizing the small details like the people I’m bringing to the team.”
Guiao said the team is reorganizing as Air21 transfers the franchise to Burger King.
“I’m bringing in coach Rhoel Nadurata while Mikee is bringing in his Harbour Center coaches Jorge Gallent, Ryan Dy and Junel Baculi. The core of the Air21 lineup remains,” said Guiao.
Guiao said Baculi will be the team manager while Nadurata, Gallent and Dy will be members of his coaching staff. He couldn’t bring along Gee Abanilla as he has a live contract with Red Bull.
The national coach is excited to work with the players he’s handling in his new team – his fourth after Swift Mighty Meaty, Pepsi and Red Bull.
“Air21 is a winning team. It has good materials. We’ll just try to develop the ability to win big games,” said Guiao of the team which has a core group led by Arwind Santos, Gary David, Wynne Arboleda, KG Canaleta.
The Express gained their first finals appearance in the league in the recent Fiesta Conference but failed to make it past the wildcard round of the ongoing Philippine Cup.
Romero, owner of the PBL multi-titled team Harbour Centre, will be the team’s representative to the league board.
“The Lina Group is the majority owner of Burger King. I would come in as a minority shareholder for now. But once expansion goes full steam, I’ll pump in more money and help run the team in the coming season,” said Romero. – Nelson Beltran

January 9th, 2009 04:25 PM #4026magulo setup ng BK/Air21, even the rest of pba govs are asking where are the papers... by how much % Lina Group owns BK, baka nga naman just to circumvent the rules, 70M franchise fee for a new PBA team, compared to 7M fee for a change name lang.

There will be no sanction for Talk ‘N Text even if it played against the Slingers in Singapore early this week, according to the PBA Commissioner’s office.
“It was only a practice game,” explained PBA media bureau Willie Marcial.
The Tropang Texters played a game and a half against the Slingers.
According to reports, they lost the first one in overtime, while the second match was halted at halftime with the Slingers leading by 40 points.
