FOOTBALL sent me to school,” says Jonathan “Maxi” Maximo.
Back in college at the University of San Carlos, Maxi was a football varsity star for four years. He wore green, memorized the USC hymn, tied the shoelaces off his spiked shoes, and played right midfield. In college, he didn’t have to reach inside the pocket to pay tuition. He was a full scholar — thanks to his left and right legs.
It is 4:35 last Thursday afternoon and Maxi and I are seated on a round wooden table at Bo’s Coffee in Ayala. He drinks iced coffee, I sip a cup of hot mint tea.

In case you missed the news, two Asian countries battled in the finals of the under-20 Federation Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) women’s world championships in Russia recently.
North Korea crushed China, 5-0, to capture the gold medal in the tournament that is held once in two years and was inaugurated in 2002. The first under-20 women’s titlist was the US and host Canada took second place. In 2004, Thailand was the site and Germany beat China, 2-0, for the crown.
The next under-20 joust is scheduled in Chile in 2008.
