And they're off . . .
Following today’s light practice and meetings this afternoon, the Warriors are off until Monday morning’s practice.
Head coach Greg McMackin said the Warriors did a lot of work during preseason training, and the off weekend will allow them to rest their legs before the practices leading to the Sept. 3 opener.
For the Warriors, today was “game-plan Tuesday,” when the Warriors watch videos pertaining to the strategies they expect to use against Colorado. And, yes, such a day usually is reserved for the Tuesday before a game. But with the extra time, the coaches moved up the preparation time.
First….Beat The Buffs….
Guess Im first Im the depth chart!!!!
Sang I’m second haha
Correction, Dang!!!
Top X
Woah! Snuck the new post by me…
(reloading from the last post den)
Great Morning All!
New season, new mechanics for Dunnachie…BOOM!
Nice read on Falemalu. Hoping for lots of “productivity” from his position.
Nice report from PowderPuff on the Pigout last night. Hope the haul was bountiful!
As per today’s story, No. 2 is an important number.
‘Morning all! Can’t wait but at least it’s single digit days now… Go Warriors! Broil da Bison!
Going against the buffs new, 3- 4 defense.
Some Big boys on that line with speed. Reminds me of what Glanville did here.
Juda Parker made the travel squad and will rotate into that mix.
Take em down.
They both need to learn the history of #2 and then live up to it…..
Go Wahines!
Start of Wahine vb tonite.
iwwthm,
Well, it helps to have Jim Kelly taking the snaps!
Seriously though that site is a good one to check in with thruout the season. He usually breaks down the highlight stuff from the past week usually with actual game film.

Good morning Tsaikos!!

Last day of work…
They could take a more traditional approach as to who wears number 2. Jan Ken Po.
Best wishes jmxxxx!
Good Morning Tsai-kos!
GOOD MORNING HAWAII!
Another WVB season starts! See you tonight at SSC!
Has Oceanic announced re-broadcast schedule for all the sports?
8 days… Any other NY-ers wanna meet up at a sports bar to catch the game? Let me know!
Howzit, everyone!
Getting closer and closer… Go, Warriors!!!
Go, Wahine!!!
WassupDoc,
I am glad that it wasn’t a heart attack or the Big C. I hope that you are feeling well and that whatever happened is behind you.
By the way, the setback that I mentioned in the blog last week had nothing to do with the stuff that I had been working on with you. I am sorry that I couldn’t clarify that earlier when you asked.
Mouse ran the RnS with the QB under center as recently as his stint at Portland State when he and Glanville were there a few years ago. Mouse eventually moved his QB back into the shotgun position because that worked better for the offense he was running at Portland State.
We’ve seen it demonstrated by both Rolo and JJ that UH’s offense can be effective with the QB under center in short-yardage situations, especially near the goal line. I would anticipate that UH will use Moniz under center in those situations at least.
I saw several people wonder where I went, so here is a quick explanation…I didn’t read the blog for 4-5 days after my previous post because of a variety of factors. One big reason is that we went to Vegas, and another reason was the 3+ hour delay we had during the drive back made us arrive home after 1am and wiped out my family for a few days. Several Tsaikos saw my wife post about the delay on Facebook, and I explained via e-mail to a person here, so my traveling was not a secret.
Since I have a policy to not post until I’ve caught up with the blogs, it took my awhile to catch up. I was shocked to read some of the assumptions/accusations about me, but I am going to limit my response to the next few posts.
I mentioned that I’m working with 4 different *groups* of people. How am I tackling all of this alone? WassupDoc is leading one effort, 1 occasional poster is leading another, 1 lurker is leading a third, and the last UH-related project is not sports related at all and I don’t think that those people have ever read this blog.
But here’s the thing, Garrett- you gotta be willing to humble yourself. Open up and learn new concepts and ideas that will not compute on paper. Toss out all the engineering garbage clouding your literary thoughts and learn to approach with your heart and gut instincts.
You honestly think that I am not being humble about these efforts? Then you don’t know me at all I guess.
You honestly think that I am not looking for new concepts and ideas? The reason why I’m working with different people is BECAUSE they have different ideas and concepts.
You honestly think that these things are being approached as “engineering garbage”? Then you have no idea what I’m doing, but you just want to call me out with incorrect ASSUMPTIONS.
At least Al think that your insticts are correct for your assumptions about me.
ST thinks that you are correct, so you can feel good about that.
Oops, this part was what I was responding to:
Welcome back Garret
It’s nice to hear from you and just in time starting with Wahine weekend.
We hope you hit a big one. Reason for delay. “Big grin”
skip blah blah blah skip blah blah blah
You have no idea what things I have been doing but you ASSUME that I’m killing them with statistical “nonsense”? The latest development had NOTHING related to statistics or end of days predictions. So, you just assume the worst about me and that is fine.
Another assumption of what I’ve been doing that has nothing to do with reality. The latest bad news had NOTHING to do with revenue inequality or anything like that.
Morning…
I am glad that the MWC isn’t interested in combining with C-USA. A 22-team conference would just be unweildy and soon schools would want to break away from it and that could be bad for UH. Plus, UH pays more in travel subsidies depending on the time zone, so C-USA East teams would be costly for UH and draw less than MWC schools.
http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/2011/aug/24/will-big-12-poach-mountain-west/
The MWC’s commissioner specifically mentioned San Diego State as well as New Mexico as possible targets for the Big 12, in addition to Air Force that has already been mentioned by others.
Big 12 interested in taking New Mexico? I would think that CUSA schools like Houston, SMU, Tulsa would more sense geographically.
Oh, by the way…welcome back, Garret. Thought you did a Gigi on us and leave the blog for good. 😉
Okay Garret, the big question is did you hit the jackpot in Las Vegas.
OD, I wanted to ask Garret the same thing. LOL
seeing individual’s personal statements and retorts on this blog makes me wish this should take place in a Jerry Springer-like environment. the bloggers can get directly involved and who knows, DNA tests may prove they are related. 😆
Limited edition posters signed by All-American Jason Elam will be available at the 2011 Na Koa Bowl on August 29th at the Stan Sheriff Center.

Garret:
Missed your posts. They’re informative, pertinent and thought provoking. Many times, people tend to not think outside of the box. We do need to get ideas that make us think – “aha, we should look into that”. Thanks for the helping to do that.

Good morning, gang!

d1 nah just our normal greeting……
What is the first Division Ia football game this season?
Good Morning Gangeez! 🙂
Tatonka have been sighted on a distant prairie, moving closer, oblivious to the fate which awaits them.
The Warriors, now hunters, are resolute in their preparation. Weapons are readied. Fear has no place in the camp, anticipation and excitement abound. Soon, soon.
GO WARRIORS!!!
Yes thanks PowderPuff for the report on the Pigout. That girl got some serious cash to lay down!
first game jitters,
Warriors 33
Bufos 30
Good morning everyone!
Yup, it’s Friday with sis and nephew arriving tonight.
I sleep on the floor tonight–another reason for the 7-nt Hawaii cruise tomorrow. 😐
Back to packing. BBL
Gib Arnold is on w/ Artie Wilson. Heard that he said Bobby Miles has improved a lot. Miles and Stokes played together with two PGs and Arnold said he liked it. Yesterday afternoon on the Sports Animals, Arnold said they are all full with scholarships for this year. So, let’s count the players.
1. Zane Johnson, SG (the only Senior on the team)
2. Vander Joaquim, C
3. Joston Thomas, PF
4. Trevor Wiseman, SF
5. Bobby Miles, PG
6. Davis Rozitis, C, PF
7. Shaquille Stokes, PG
8. Garret Jefferson, SG
9. Christian Standhardinger, PF (transfer, redshirting this year)
10. Hauns Brereton, SF
11. Brandon Jawato, PG (I am assuming he got a scholarship since Blakes is not here)
Walk-Ons
12. Pii Minns, SG
13. Tyler Brown, PF
14. Jace Tavita, PG, SG
15. Kainoa Chu, SG
16. Tyler McDaniels, PF (no sure if he’s officially on the team)
17. Miah Ostrowski, PG (football scholarship)
Great Aloha Friday!
Hoping jm204928049234.2343 is able to find other employment — SOON!
PP and cash.
I guess someone has to clean out the coins lost in the sofas.
Garret . . .
So, you did not answer the main question . . . how did you do in Vegas? Checking the place out for next month?
60!
After reading yesterdays paper, I will presume that Teo received an exception from the church to forego his mission or he is no longer with the church.
Japan Bowl:
Maybe Jim D can schedule Fresno or San Diego St to play against in Japan in 2014.
What is the cost for round trip to Japan via the “Artic” route? will the $150K cover the cost? Will the MWC approve?
well, it’s a no brainer that hawaii’s starters were made public one day prior to “game day tuesday”. but according to boulder ‘spooks’, the buffs are deep into “game day tuesday”. guess the jump-start by embree & staff might be to make -up travel lag time? or they may just be eager beavers rather than an aimless herd of american bison.
one thing certain, jon embree is a tireless worker and a relentless martinet…..and his team is motivated by warrior fans who predict hawaii will put more than 70 on the board.
Although its a “bad deal” for the injured Warriors, it gives the others a tremendous oppurtunity to get a lot of practice and/or playing time – definitely a plus for 2012 and beyond.
GO WARRIORS!!! Beat the Buffs!
I would never tell how much I won in Vegas – especially if I hit a big jackpot inlcuding mega bucks.
Why, cause i never win!! only contribute to the building of mega resort w/ casino.
UH beats Buffs 41 – 14
A-house,
It’s a miracle! 😉
Welcome back, Garret.
Dang, DPK (#51)! I almost yelled “Zuluuuuuuu” and ran out with a ball point pen in my hand!
Roger that! Hope JMxxxx will find something good, and quick! Best wishes!
how does one presume manti is no longer with his faith bc he decided to forego his mission?
the article i read said that manti attends a mormon church in the southbend area. it also said, he discusses his decisions with his deeply religious family. he sounds rooted in his mormon faith. the bigger issue is whether he will forego his senior year and jump into the early nfl draft. this athlete is a thinker and a good decision maker. his choice to turn down usc was classic stuff. as it turns out, the trojans remains on probation and ND changed coaches and are on the rise with manti as their marque player in only his 3rd year of realtime college play. this kid can see the forest and the trees at the same time. he is made of solid stuff.
Thanks PowderPuff, but I am only helping Curt spread the word– he is doing all the organizing, receiving RSVPs, and making reservations.
Anyone interested in reservations and our own table area should contact Curt in email or in Facebook. Here’s a KGMB-9 news report I found on the 2009 Hale Koa Oktoberfest that will give a “look and feel” of the annual event…

OK..back to packing. BBL
On the other side, the Buffaloes prognosticators has predicted that they will beat Hawaii by
“a couple of touchdowns” and they have been saying this for at least a few weeks ago. Obviously, each team’s fans are favoring their own teams and this is very normal. For Colorado they are confident because they beat us 31-13 in Boulder last year and they are the big bad Pac 12 conference. Yes, they just might be better than us because the last time we beat a Pac 12 team was Wazzu in Seattle at Quest Field. But, you have to remember that Wazzu was the worst team in the conference and they are probably the worst team in the conference this year too. For Hawaii, it is a revenage game and if you look at last year Hawaii dominated the first have. It should have been at least 24-0 instead of 10-0 at the half. Mack and Company remember it very well. Looking at the teams, I think is a little weaker this year and Hawaii is a little stronger. Colorado’s weakness is their secondary and Hawaii’s strength is our passing attack. Colorodo’s stregth is their running game, but Hawaii’s front 7 is the strength on defense. Hawaii’s weakness is the offensive line, and Colorado’s defensive front is questionable that this point. We have home field advantage and it’s not at altitude. We are used to the humidity, Colorado’s humdity is very low. What will happen? I don’t know.
What I think will happen, well, as it stands now it is safe to say that the weather will be fine at game time and it will be hot and humit. Hawaii to me has the advantage. I believe our Heisman candidate will have a field day and our defense will cause all kinds of havoc. By the middle of the 3rd quarter, Colorado offensive and defensive line will be dragging and the floodgates will open. What was a pretty close game at the half will turn into a runaway. I could be wrong. Hawaii could blow out Colorado in the first half and coast in the second half. I doubt Colorado can beat Hawaii by more than 2 scores. They could if we make a lot of untimely turnovers and as you know, things happen in a football game. That’s why they play the games. But, I like Hawaii chances a lot in this game and I don’t think it going to be very close. I already made my pick.
derek,
thanx for sharing.
you make a big thing about the humidity, but boulder aint freezing in the summer.
also, anyone that trains a mile up is ahead when descending to sea level. the american bison wont wilt and if they run the quick snap, the warriors will be challenged to suck their own hawaiian air.
btw, where were you last year on counting the altitude deficits and camping for the major pregame duration in summerlin? venue conditions should be played on both sides of the pond.
im a firm believer that football battles are won in the trenches.
our oline has not shown up yet and based on spring and camp practices–we will need more than tea leaves and well wishes from ardent fans. on the other hand, the buffs strength is in their o-line and the their stealth smurfbacks that slice into massive human walls like a knife cuts through butter.
so where are we?
back to our warrior Defense. experienced, reinforced and deep.
your 45-10 prediction is still under the spread but your 45 points is more bravado than product.
again, the under looms a sloid bet.
but until our 5th year apprentices and underclass that comprise our OL, show and tell, it will be a dog fight.
for our O–more questions remain than are answered….we shall see and kudos to you for being optimistic.
for our D, it’s a matter of execution, focus and assignment discipline. they are certified to go.
here i thought being a Mormon and going on a mission was a rite of passage. nevertheless, Teo did consult and he is playing and doing very well.
almost game time.
GO WAHINE!
GO WARRIORS!
CU could be in for a rude awakening at Aloha Stadium. Our boys certainly play with some added punch when they are at the homefield. However, our boys have also been known to stink up the joint when playing a big name opponent on national tv. If CU catches us on one of those days, it’s going to be a long day for the warriors.
A slow start for the Warriors is unacceptable. We will need to be crispy and concise from start ’till end. And most of all, we will have to win the turnover battle. Receivers will need to CATCH and HOLD ON to the ball. No dropsies. No fumbles. Same for our RB’s. For the QB’s, Mo will need to be on point. No INT’s, no momentum-busting mistakes. These are the things that usually happen in a first game situation. Our boys will need to play like they been here before.
BIK
BIK
team captains and vocal leaders need to step up big time.
GO WARRIORS!
“right of passage”? hmmmm….
look, it’s like the navy. some want to volunteer for the seals to become something special.
an elevated stautus. but, if you arent a seal, you can still serve your country in the same navy.
i dont get the presumption that going on a mission and being a mormon are mutually exclusive events.
not a presumption on my part but is mentioned by LDS brothers.
yes, i do have brothers and relatives that have gone on missions and they did mention it is a rite of passage. i don’t think they were being presumptuous. not for me to judge.
tea leaves? auwe, das one nada kine party.
one lump or two?
Hau’oli La Hanau, Yuval! שיהיה לך יום נהדר!
Good to see you pau busy for a moment, braddah Garret! SOLID!!
#64: A-House- you bring up a good point. All too often during the season teams get entrenched in the moment and forgo the thought of preparing for the future; allowing underclassmen garner much needed experience. Rather than waiting for a blown out scenario to arise that allows the second and third string units to play, perhaps a system built in that encourages player rotation at any moment and overall cohesive team chemistry over individual statistics and playing time.
Derek- I like your outlook of the game ahead.
JMxxxx- Bread Pudding Stand!! Let’s Roll!!
#69: Wes’side Warrior: Bringing down a full grown Buffalo with reckless abandon and a simple ball point pen! AWESOME VISUAL!!!! DPK, somehow you just know how fo bring out the best in us all.
BIK- What’s the latest ETA on your new “recruit?” Can I safely presume your training facilities are up and ready for his arrival?
just saying, i know many mormons that didnt go on a mission. i also know of mormons that went on controversial missions.
like mitt romney did in 1966 as he matriculated to france for 30 months to get a vietnam related draft deferment. he also received academic deferments before and after his mormon mission assignment as “minister of religion”. now, he wants to be commander-in-chief.
#73 Derek: Good Analysis of CU vs Hawaii! I hope it works out as prognosticated. Thanks.
lol.
tee-leaves, not tea leaves. funny stuff.
warriorsun, fair enough, all’s good.
btw, ti leaf. LOL you guys crack me up!
Hiya Ajoe! Just mentioning again, that I have a few extra UNLV game tickets available that are situated in our Tsaiko block that Rich bought for us.
Go Warrior! Bust the Buffaloes!
OK, Warriors are off until Monday.
This is what I found out on when they should go on a Mormon Mission:
Who Goes on an LDS Mission?:
It is a duty for young men, ages 19-27 who are able, to serve as full-time missionaries. Single women, ages 21+, and older married couples also have the opportunity to serve a part or full-time LDS mission.
Have a great weekend Warriors!
…and a greater one next week!!!
eh, couch
u humble me (tee leaves). but humit (humid) still is the funniest typo of the day, and derek is a good writer.
btw, my first couz (a mormon) is m to a teo.
Was everyone practicing per the Depth Chart this morning?
Michelle Wie did OK today two boogies with five birds. She now is -8, four behind the leader
key word is “are able”. and no mention of sanctions for otherwise. the church leaves the door open, manti can serve missions in the future under, the “older married couples” category. if he plays in the nfl, he will be old and wealthy by the time he is 35. dont forget the tidings, mormons give 10%. lol.
One more week…
IS IT SATURDAY YET?
BTW, where’s the t-gate at?
(Gramps – gotta get your priorities straight – bp or greenies?)
According to the LDS Missions Network (you can access it on Google):
“Young men and women in The Church of Jesus Christ are not required to serve a mission, although many do.”
weekend off for the boyz! no get into or make trouble now! don’t do an LSU.
warriorsun, lol, you did mean “tithing”, yes? i got the gist of it. just playing.
Warriors – rest up over the weekend; be ready to work hard on Monday morning.
bp or greenies? batting practice or golf?
big pitcher or bottles
couch,
wrong religion. lol. “tithing” is accurate for mormons.
big pitcher, oh yeah!
off to restock the pupus.
GO WAHINE! can’t wait to see the OC 1012 HD coverage.
at this point, rest becomes a big factor. da chief has spoken for his warriors. next week is gen up time to peak for sat…..ahhh, college football.
…. pardon the intrusion … from USA Today
” … Pac-10 commissioner denies decision is made to invite six Big 12 schools … ”

Wow!
One Em Mgmt Dir in NJ put it out there plainly when asked what his message is to anyone who decides to ride out Irene.
“Take a 3 x 5 card and an indelible ink pen. Write your name, SSN, Next of kin and their ph# on the card. Place the card in your left shoe and don’t wear flip flops or loafers; wear tie-on shoes so we can identify you later.”
re 107 – sorry it’s LAST year’s news delete.
God’s blessing on all of those in Irene’s path.
what’s the latest on hartong? heard she caught the flu bug.
with waber deciding to redshirt this season many are anticipating two heralded freshmen–jane croson on the pin and kalei adolpho in the middle. they are smack into the mix.
A-Joe…you and jm#### should open a lunch truck and call it “Hottie buns”…MWAHAHAHAHA
jm#####…I think gramps prefers greenies…LOL
Too bad we didn’t get Gunner Kiel. =P.
Impressive.
(J)J,

Greetings Tsaiko Villagers!
My 1st day out and about!
I had a note from USPS to pick up a certified mailing. That was good enuff for me right there! But what added to it was another parcel for me. It REALLY got me singing this gospel tune as I walked out of the Kapolei office with my UH Season tickets in hand….
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BD2D6eter7M&feature=related
Hehehe, a truly Happy Child, Lord.
D1…..Wait??? Gramps eats…..???? I thought we just stored the food in homey’s truck…
Kekoa,
Nice!
….especially the part where you back up and about!
Columbus East w/ Kiel seem to run the RnS too.
He walks!!!
Whoo-hoo!!!
Oh, and he has his tickets, too.
Yay!!!
(J)J,
It’s an annual event. 😉

Yep! Thanks to Rich, the Vegas ducats are in hand. My Season tickets were the frosting on top. Both in one day…I’m still singing, “Oh Happy Day!”
😎
Heard from the BHF ohana today too. He and Susan are so swamped with work, they can’t get away to attend the opener. They promise to yell louder from Hilo!
SORRY!!!
This is the video with Jett and Jori Jasper in it at the last segment. Again Jett is to the left side with two other football players and Jori is up on the stairs (harder to see).

Need and answer.
Is tonights Wahine game that is on cable available to homes that have HD? Or is itone has to pay extra or have pay per view?
Thanks in advance.
Correction. Need Digital box only or does one has to pay extra to see the game on TV?
Tom Mui,
Just wanna say ahead of time, your efforts to help support Rainbow Wahine athletics is amazing.
Truly a mover and shaker behind the scenes.
Will relish the moment tonight.
Not an Expert.
Supposed to be on LIVE on HD 1012. Sans ppv.
That’s the last I heard.
This is my first time i visit here. I found so many entertaining stuff in your blog, especially its discussion. From the tons of comments on your articles, I guess I am not the only one having all the enjoyment here! Keep up the good work.
Kevin, thanks for your response.
warriorsun:
I made no “presumptions”! I merely asked a question(s).
since you put yourself out to be the expert, will Teo go on his mission? Is the mission not a part of his church’s expectation?
# 134 – posted before I read tommui’s post.
AJoe!
We are on code-alert ORANGE in terms of the new recruit. Mama is doing good and big sister is taking the impending arrival of her baby brother in stride. We are officially in “any day now” status. I just hope we don’t go into labor on Saturday afternoon right before the CU kick off!!! Yikes! haaaa. Maybe it will be a sign. Facilities are all good and we are as ready as we can be. Much love to you brother.
BIK
If you don’t have the Oceanic HD package, you can get tonight’s game on channel 12. They hadn’t updated the TV guide on channel 24 as of 1/2 hr. ago. They will be broadcasting the home football games on a delay, the day after.
The customer rep. I spoke to said they’d be broadcasting some of the old WVB games this coming week. They’ll cover the WVB tournament this weekend and next weekend.
It was good to see Alex Green in the Packers game.
K, gotta go…
BIK ~ Much Aloha to you my brother. Cheering for a healthy and happy birthday arrival for your newest team member!
Hey Slugger! Thanks for the heads-up on the broadcasting! I was wondering how we were going to be able to see the fb replay. See ya!
A-Joe ~
Is there a FireSale on those items that didn’t sell at the Made
In Hawaii event last week? Something like a 99% off sale would be puurfect!
I’m always the last to discover these things, but the Alo Appeal drink is just awesome.
It has pulp.
I’m hooked.
OK, return to normal programming.
In today’s games:
Alex Green, 5 rushes for 8 yards. green Bay had only 45 net yards rushing.
Greg Salas, 2 receptions for 17 yards.

Keep ’em coming… you all do such a great job at such Concepts… can’t tell you how much I, for one appreciate all you do!
RE: Japan Bowl
In MHO I feel Air Force would be the ideal MWC opponent for UH. They’re a natural draw. There’s thousands of military personnel and dependents stationed there. Plus all the US government personnel and their dependents living on the bases.
UCLA would be the biggest draw for the Japanese. It’s been stated before that the UCLA
SORRY HIT ENTER BEFORE FINISHING.
It’s been stated before that the UCLA brand is by far the best selling of any university logo merchandise in Japan. They have the best name recognition among Japanese sports fans.
Los Angeles is probably the largest gateway from the Mainland to Japan.
Light practice today, no practice Saturday, no practice Sunday, eight days outside of the season opener. Hmm. Hope it doesn’t come back and haunt the Warriors, like it did during the Hawaii Bowl, where the team played sloppily because of a lack of practicing and preparation.
The Colorado team’s been shooting live ammo. Two weeks ago they had a 146 play live scrimmage and then this last week they had a 105 play live scrimmage. That’s impressive on the Colorado team’s part.
The Hawaii team is going about preserving themselves (hence the three day vacation)–coaches words saving our legs…and picking up right where they left off in preparation for the Hawaii Bowl (limited number of practices and no sense of urgency in getting ready for Tulsa). I
But, hey, everyone has confidence in Coach Mack’s winning formula. We shall see.
But I think having the players idle does

I like this line from the last blog post I cited.
#151 – Campbell’s head coach Amosa Amosa and O-Line coach Ulima Afoa coached together under Dan Morrison at Punahou many years ago. Two very knowledgable and experienced coaches. That’s a big plus for Campbell.
#164 – I like that one D1. They do that at all levels. I just heard a coach this week berating an eight year old free safety at the pop warner level to shade the the inside slot to the strength of the formation, and not play head up. You’ve got to be kidding me. At that age I was only interested in having the most “bumbucha” marbles. Would have never known what the hell a slot was much less an inside slot. The only thing I knew about strength was that I didn’t have any.
😀
btw, Kamehameha-Kapalama just went ahead of Radford, 14-7.
(I know someboddy like know 😉 )
Cannot wait to travel to Hawaii from Australia this week to see the first game and then go to the next 3 after that. If anyone hears an Aussie in the crowd who doesn’t know what they’re talking about. Please forgive them. It’s probably me!
Wow LASER! That’s some trip…
Aussie Aussie Aussie!
this is a quick wahine team. i cant recall a shoji team like this. it opens up their offense to attack from all sides, the middle and behind the 3-meter line. also passing game looks good as well as our D. maeda is like a shortstop that eats up everything that comes her way.
croson is the real deal in all phases of the game. promising outlook.
In Women’s vb,
#1 Penn St. lost to Oregon 3-1 @ Penn St.
Thanks for all the good thoughts and prayers!
Having a wonderful reunion with my favorite aunt who used to live in Enchanted Lakes and who now lives in Miami with fabulous daughter and hubby. All thanks to Irene. Weather here has been sunny and hot. Got to have an awesome Cali. Pizza Kitchen lunch with PDX nephews who are and were CPK GM’s so we let them order and had a Tsai-ko sized feast. Highlight of the trip so far has been visiting my cousin’s daughter’s fabulous dance studio (home dance studio of Janine Mason) with Ukulele boi (who is playing again) and watch her creating a new competition piece with a group of students.
Mahalo, mahalo, Ke Akua. Please keep safe all in the path of Irene!
808ike,
Wow!
ST, did you give away the ticket(s) yet?
Sounds like a fun time LizK.
Tomorrow we head out and out of Internet contact for awhile, ATT was messed uo here all day… So texts and calls and internet was off a lot. Trying to get to sleep but two large thimbles of Cuban coffee are keeping me awake! Hahaha! i love this life!
Should be clear sailing following the storm.
Yay, Wahine!

Hi, AussieMum!
Hope you can join us for a T-Gate. Spoke to Alex about your schedule. I won’t be going to the away games, tho.
Got to meet Stump Godfrey tonight while talking to D. Bright & T. Bell.
Saw Dunnachie at the VB game, Vaughn, Bubba, Kody Afusia…bunch of FB players at the game. Coach Mouse was at a table on the floor.
Couldn’t see the Tsaikos across the way.
LASER,
I was telling Scott Harding that I’ve had 2 Australian families sitting in the seats next to me at a couple of games last season. They were both here on vacation. One family actually read about Alex in a newspaper article and decided they’d come to a game. Lots of fun!
LizKauai,
Hope you all stay safe. When are you supposed to hit the (High) seas?
I’m glad the USF team made a game of it in the last set. It’s my alma mater, so I had to cheer for them, too. Met the parents of USF #11 who are here from WA. Mom is a first time visitor. She said they’re lucky to have 300-400 people at one of their matches. This must have been an experience for the team to play in the SSC. [Didn’t hear Billy V. announce the gate numbers.]
190!
Hi LASER and AussieMum and group… please feel free to join the Tsai-ko Tailgate in Las Vegas also. The Fiesta Henderson (buffet) at 3:00 pm) Just come down, no RSVP necessary.
