Both got what they deserve.

Arboleda is known for his rugged, bordering on hooliganism, brand of play. He bullies his way on everyone despite the fact that his only ticket to the PBA is his being the team owner’s son-in-law. The PBA is better off without this hooligan.

But this doesn’t give Alain Katigbak any right to malign and shout cuss words against Arboleda. Well, he can do so, as long as he knows how to back up his mouth. Apparently, Arboleda found Katigbak’s being a smart ass way out of line; thus sharing him a piece of his mind (and fists).

So it’s good. Other PBA players (and fans) can now feel safe at least for the rest of the season with the banishment of Arboleda. And smart ass fans like Katigbak would think twice in getting personal and hurling insults, lest they want their foul mouths get smacked.

Ok, on with the moro moro that is the PBA… =)
