                    [Summary] => This column today misses The FREEMAN centennial edition by a day. But then, as all strange things go, coming out as the paper turns a hundred and a day old isn't such a bad thing after all. In fact, with all the serious stuff behind us now, maybe it is time for a few laughs, about ourselves here in The FREEMAN, that many do not know about.

All the giant television networks in the country jointly announced on Thursday that they would be airing the Manny Pacquiao - Floyd Mayweather Jr. fight "live" from Las Vegas on May 3, Philippine time.
