FROM his regular seat at ringside, Manny V. Pangilinan obviously didn't like how Game Two of the Talk 'N Text-San Miguel Beer series was called by the referees.
The Talk 'N Text owner was quick on the buttons at the end of the Beermen's 87-81 victory over the Tropang Texters on Sunday night, adding to the growls over the officiating with a straight-forward tweet.
"We can't win these games with bad referee calls," he tweeted on his official Twitter account @iammvp.
Complaints from Talk 'N Text supporters about the officiating filled social media just minutes after the win that gave SMB a 2-0 lead in a PBA Philippine Cup semifinal series pitting the flagship teams of the two biggest ownerships in the league.
There were a number of crucial calls which TnT supporters went against them, none bigger than the out-of-bounds play involving Larry Fonacier and June Mar Fajardo which went the Beermen's way.
League officials cannot be reached for comment at posting time.
