#15 – get rid of Portnoy too. He needs to decide if he wants to be a regent or do color.

I don’t understand why you feel the need to report on this (someones personal business), but you won’t let us know that John Ursua hurt his hamstring during practice on Tuesday before the Hawaii Bowl until after the game or that Cole McDonald isn’t going to play against Wyoming. I understand that the coaches might want to keep it a secret, but isn’t reporting to the public about the team your job? I’m sure Bobby Curran didn’t want the news of him being arrested for giving his son lickins to make it onto this blog either. I think we are the only fans in the nation who don’t know that their best player is injured the week of the bowl game and that is pathetic…then we wonder why the UH fanbase is so low.

It amazes me how many posters suggests this should be kept private, within the family. Sorry, but that is the exact behavior that leads to more violence. Unless it was self-defense, this is an indicator of trouble to come.

Good excuse for UH and 1420 to clean the radio house. Never thought that Kekaula would sound more intelligent than someone, but Curran is awful on the mike.

this issue is being white-washed by HPD and SA. no matter what, a parent should not abuse their children. regardless if the child did not want to press charges, the prosecutors could bring charges. sure it was a personal matter but he is a public figure and should know that he should act properly and not do stupid things.

Assaulting your spouse will get you fired. Assaulting your kid can be spun into parenting. BC has to take 100% blame on Thursday and all can be forgotten.

This goes in the category as none of our business.

Bobby Curran is an established and somewhat esteemed “voice” locally. I think he needs to address his “family problem” in order to move on. Should be interesting. I’m sure it is not as big a deal as it was initially let on to have been.

He is very opinionated and critical (albeit usually reflecting the popular opinion most times) in certain designed segments of his show and may come across as a little haughty to some. He does play by play in this similar way as well (my opinion) and I know it annoys several on this board. I think this may change him a little (more humility maybe) so there may be an adjustment to his method. We’ll see. Could make him better than before.

Josh Pacheco filled in nicely in the morning show. Josh was pretty good on play by play as well but Portnoy doesn’t have the comfort level with him so was clunky little bit. But Curran is still the established drive time voice (for sports) right now. Good luck to him. His family as well.

I want to share this song. It’s called “I Love My Dad” by Sun Kil Moon. The name of the songwriter is Mark Kozelek. Kozelek writes very autobiographical lyrics. Nobody knows what happened between father and son. It’s really none of our business. Maybe so, or maybe not, these lyrics are apropos.

“When I was young my father taught me not to gloat/If I came home too proud of myself I got wrestled to the floor and choked/But I forgive him for that/He was an eighth grade drop-out and I was being a brat/I forgive him, I do/I know that he loves me and he knows I love him too”

The point is, if what went down wasn’t too serious, both father and son will patch things up, and be forever bonded by the embarrassment of their conflict going public. Hopefully, when we get the full story, this will be much ado about nothing.
