As exciting as it is to see foreigners putting up a show for your fans, it does nothing to help the development of the local talents. And some teams even have Filipino Americans playing as ‘locals’, while still having the additions of foreign players on the same team as well. Why not just have those Fil American count as the foreigners, so they won’t take the space of locals? The Philippines ranks #117, I think you guys should get your act together first. Even North Korea ranks higher, has a NT and program, but no league……..and that says a lot. lol
