EVE of the 2020 PBA Rookie Draft. All mock drafts have been put out. Suddenly Terrafirma coach Johnedel Cardel came out with an ambiguous statement that basically says that contrary to popular belief, the Dyip aren t completely settled on making Joshua Munzon the No. 1 overall pick on Sunday.
Just like that, all the mock drafts came in danger of being thrown out the window as the pieces begin to crumble from the top down.
The doubt has been cast. And it s not without basis. Did the pre-draft noise around Fil-Am guard Mikey Williams - or TnT s late move to get the No. 4 pick from sister team NLEX -change the mind of whoever makes the decisions for Terrafirma?

We previously reported on how Antifa attacked the federal courthouse in Portland, both during the day and then going back later in the evening, setting it on fire, smashing the windows, throwing things at officers and covering it with graffiti again, including a message saying, “We will destroy you.”
One of the main reasons that the Antifa rioters went after the federal courthouse on Thursday was because the protective fencing had just been taken down by the Federal Protective Service that morning after pressure from the local authorities to return to “normal.” How’d that work out? Obviously not a smart move after almost daily attacks for months. Meanwhile, there’s still fencing up at the Capitol in D.C. for a three-hour riot in January. Plus National Guard that’s cost us more than $500 million.

LANDIKOTAL: Awami National Party provincial president Aimal Wali Khan on Wednesday said that unnecessary restrictions on the Torkham border crossing not only created problems for the Afghans living on both sides but it dealt a severe blow to the trade valume with Afghanistan.
ANP provincial president, flanked by hundreds of party supporters, first reached Jamrud and then Landikotal, while crossing the hurdles and barricades placed by the authorties at various locations on the road to stop the ANP convoy from Peshawar.
Speaking to the public gathering at Bacha Khan Chowk in Landikotal, Aimal Wali Khan said his party always supported strong trade relations with Afghanistan. He said billions of rupees have been spent on various schemes at the Torkham border but trade with Afghanistan was gradually plummeting.
