Estes to Jaguars, Satele to Raiders, Hisatake to Panthers
• Former UH center John Estes will sign a free-agent contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
• Former UH linebacker Brashton Satele will sign with the Oakland Raiders. He said he is waiting for a copy of the offer to be e-mailed or faxed.
• Former UH offensive tackle Ray Hisatake will sign a free-agent contract with the Carolina Panthers.
“I’m really excited about this opportunity,” said Hisatake, who was offered a three-year contract.

Sailor Blue and Wafan each win a pair of tickets to tonight’s volleyball match. Because Wafan is off island, he’s giving his tickets to Pomai. I’ll leave a pair of tickets at Will Call for Sailor Blue and Pomai.
Also Bruce needs to call me at 256-0223 if he wants his tickets.
Anyway, I might have a couple of tickets left over, so it wouldn’t hurt for people to call me at, say, 6:45. Thanks.

This past week, compliance officer Amanda Paterson underwent yet another arthroscopic knee surgery. All of the surgeries stem from her days as the Rainbow Wahine’s soccer goalie.
So, you know the natural question.
And Amanda told the Warrior Beat: “I have contemporaneous documentation.”
I believe she’s eligible to play in the next alumni match.

This is what happens when you play with fire.
it;s not too late to pick me.
Avis must have long hours, she’ll be around at noon on a saturday to pull a name, give that lady a big hand.
who were the basketball recruits that came in this weekend? or is that Dayton’s release.
NFL 4th round at 4 am, really, ESPN expect people to watch at 4 am HST or 10 am EST.
Al goes to bed and now I don’t have anyone else to enlighten me. Where’s letsgobows, he or she always had scoops.
Go Warriors!

It’s not to late to pick me.

g’mornin’ all
I forwarded some info to my Tsai-ko Karaoke Call mailing list earlier in the evening. Haven’t used it for a year and it’s down to only 68 recipients. The news:
Club Genji has invited the Tsai-ko’s to participate in a karaoke contest.
Art sent an announcement on Thursday to the Tsai-ko email addys he had from the UH PPV games and other events. This contest has been going on for years, but it’s the first I heard about it… (probably because I’m never invited to enter) 😐 😕
Apparently, 8-10 karaoke bars participate annually–each running their own weekly contests independently and their own semi-final in July. The top male and female winners in two categories: pop and country, go to the finals held at the Honolulu Japanese Chamber of Commerce in August.
The winners there go on to Laughlin, Nevada for a national contest (all expenses paid). The songs are in english.
Anyway, Art has invited the Tsai-ko’s to participate and maybe represent Genji’s. His weekly contest in on Monday’s until July. Register (free) no later than 1700 and the contest starts at 1900. I have been told by others that you may enter every week if you don’t win. Also, the other participating bars might have theirs on different nights…
This could get real interesting if any Tsai-kos wants to enter. I’ll be part of the cheering team, not a contestant.
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
If you wish to be included on my Tsai-ko Karaoke mailing list for possible announcements, please send me an email at: stevem.hnl (at) gmail.com
I notice two of our most senior tsaikos just got up from their power naps, good morning!
SteveM ~ I think we should support Pride in the Male cAtegory…and select a Tsaikette in the other.
Ralph…Sssshh..baby finally went to sleep. Poor kid had to take 5 shots today! She was not a happy child
Good conversation btn Ralph an al, both made some good points, but the major problem is you have two people involved that after a number of years still have no clue what it takes to get fans in the stands in Hawaii. JD can’t do it all.
It’s not too late to pick me.
Pomai Clapp is UHAD internal affairs, helps admin with Donovan, McNamara is external, the money man-the revenue guy, ads, marketing, selling tickets, raising funds.
Hi Bulla, please tell your lovely wife hello and thank you for me. She is such a blessing not only to you but to all of us also. Mahalo Lynn.
NFL draft is about to begin, I should be sleeping but I drank a six pack of coke and now I’m wide awake. I hope I can be awake for the volleyball game.
USC Joe McKnight and Everson Griffen were heralded HS all americans, did very well at USC, but still available starting round 4. Both were 5 star recruits, I guess its what can you do for me at the next level without the hoopla from HS and college. McKnight was #1 HS Rb, and Griffen #1 HS DE recruits.
Good morning
It’s not too late to pick me.
redskins up! 1 qb left
redskins picked Perry Riley, OLB LSU. so far so good for Colt.
Ralph you better go to sleep so you can make it to the game tonight.
It’s not too late to pick me
alright Oakland 6’6 314lb OT out of Maryland. 2 OT, Ilb and a DT. maybe Oakland ought to convert Russell to a blocking fb, can’t pass, got to pay him anyway.
Oakland picked another wr, why? they wanted more speed, but Russell can’t get the ball off. Oakland could have used another OL. another OT, the odd man out becomes the guard candidate, including the current roster OT.
J E T S get Joe McKnight
Good morning!
Once the clouds burn off it is going be a really nice day.
Hopefully, they burn off by tomorrow.
Funny. Several cities are installing Red Light Cameras. Folks are whining and complianing about the $124 tickets.
Seems simple to me. If you obey traffic laws you do not get the ticket. Behave like an idiot and you are rewarded with a ticket.
Clowns are complaining that the cameras will cause more accidents with people actually stopping at traffic lights. Oh my goodness! And, they are serious!
How stupid are these people?
Jacoby Ford, WR, Clemson, Oakland 4th rd. ran a 4.28 40 at the NFL combine. 5’10 185. Okay, got Heyward-bey and Ford, speedsters, now can they catch. HB caught about 2 passes every other game, duh.
the Tebow pick is stirring controversy, why, he doesn’t fit the ESPN analyst tangibles of a good qb. Tom Matte did okay at Baltimore, George Blanda played many years, find a role
Ralph ~ Time to make you one bottle and rock you to sleep…
Avis ~ It’s not too late to pick me. Besides, Ralph goin’ be sleeping.
and I’m only drinking from the cans, i bought 6 liters of coke in reserve, i better not chill them and be tempted to finish a bottle.
Eagles trade McNabb but drafts a qb, go figa. Kafka from Northwestern.
Wafan ~ Stoplite cam in Sacramento caught red lite runners. The picture of 2 of the 5 occupants showed up very clear in the paper. Come to find out in the next days paper, the car was stolen by those 5 boys. Several calls came to identify the 2 boys in the photo.
The owner called in after seeing her license plate displayed. Poor woman was working at WalMart while he car was being jacked from the parking lot.
Did the boys at least say “Cheese” for the photo?
If not, maybe they remembered for their booking photos.
It’s not too late to pick me.
One protestor of the Red Light Cameras citing the US Constitution says it is his right to run the lights and break the law.
Amazing.
I hope he has not and will not reproduce. He really needs to win the Darwin Awards.
Great Morning All!
Congratulations Chopsueyboy!
Erryboddy have a terrific day!
HiHo….
Buffalo bills select Ed Wang, Va Tech. first full blooded chinese fb player selected in the NFL
Go Wahine!
2x!!!
Gee a player from Central Arkansas got picked before any of our UH players. the nfl found the talent on a D 1AA team but our LB weren’t rated better. Jacksonville picked Larry Hart, OLB
Pride,
i’ll relay the message to mrs. bulla and she definitely is a blessing!
whew, is that a PR snafu at Kalaepohaku in selecting a football coach? what a comedy of errors; even more entertaining is DT saying he is going to Iolani and WL neither confirming nor denying any additions to his staff…is this ‘Law and Order’ or ‘ILH Gone Wild’……
see anyone/everyone at the scrimmage today 🙂

Gay = Yay!
Dang. Fingers too big to use little keyboards.
It’s not too late pick me.
I will definitely pick it. Such a nice post..
Not big news, but Hawai’i is ranked number 1 for highest fuel prices. Washington and California are close behind!

Pomai tried sucking up yesterday. It didn’t work. He even pled poverty, as did I. That didn’t work either.

In other exciting news, Hawaii has the highest residential rents in the country too!

If you have time and a vehicle you should come up to visit the Tulip Festival. Acres of blooming tulips! A veritable da kine dream for photographers with all of the color!
Only a short four hour drive North for you.
DPK . . .
So those folks who complain may indeed chant, “We’re Number 1!” with impunity.
Heck, we are number 4 or 5. We must not try harder!
Good morning Tsaikos everywhere.
Hmmm. Nincompoops asserting constitutional right to reproduce. affects us all. NCAA rules Brashton lacked documentation in 2005, Someone must not have explained all the rules in 05 to the frosh. Proper Prior Planning Prevents Poor Performance. Gotta move forward. Hope we instruct frosh on NCAA rules top to bottom, avoiding dings from paper pushers, get NCAA opinions in writing so the future CP doesn’t get the blindside.
Nincompoops are in all walks of life. Sucks when it affects our Warriors.
At least Coach Mack seems to be steadfast, and is listening to y’all. Go Mack. Go Tsaikos. Go Warriors!
Big Dog! Welcome home.
at my advance age though,
It’s not too late to pick me
Good morning Hawaii!

When I was in L.A. last week a family cop told me that they will not send you the ticket if your face is not clear so the idea to beat the system is to make sure that your face is not clear for the photo . Wear a big hat or place your hand over your face.

My big ole heart is breakin I tell ya!
BHF2- glad to see you on board again!
Monday is bad – will you be here the rest of the week? Tuesday is bad as I’m having lunch with a person from UHF but there is always coffee, breakfast (if not at the break of day!) or something.
Would be glad to chew the fat with you!
say hi*
SEE! I stay so heartbroken dat I forgot wut I was gonna say!
Did Ralph finally crash? I think dem Raidas have room on their roster for about 6 more veteran QB’s…. 🙄
BHF2 ~ I came real close to launching the elite Tsaiko Tsearch & Rescue team. We were a bit concerned aftah hearing of several senior citizens wandering off the rez. No word from you since the Tsunami Tscare ramped things up.
We had BIK keep an eye out for you. Alas, he reported that he was checking errybody coming out of da bars and restraunts around Hilo. Suddenly, it dawned on him that he nevah even know what you look like! Bwahahaha!

Shucks…. I was going to volunteer…. 😥
It’s not too late to pick me.
Jason Cambell saga is now over.
Off to Raider land amongst the hill of Oakland
Tom
next time
Just had a dream where I was building a go cart with my ex girlfriend in an attempt to defeat Mario and Luigi ala the video game….
Sashimi and Funyuns for dinner apparently causes this late night reaction.
Now I know for sure that Al has lost his mind.
Al Davis, that is.

If you wanna look for me in a bar, try M-F about noon. 😆

I think Ralph has lost it too.
I mean, Ralph Wilson.
One more try…
It’s not too late to pick me.
make this a productive day. wishing i was in Hnl for today’s festivities.
laters gangee.
Kekoa….how funny!
BIK
Drafting a new owner, best idea in awhile. Poor management starts at the top.
Jason Campbell traded to Raiders. At least they drafted a couple of OTs to protect him. Now all Colt B has to do is beat out that #2 qb who is going down hill. Will McNabb last throughout the season? I don’t wish anything bad upon anyone but I just want Colt to get some real playing time.
As Ralph #45, pointed out, Larry Hart, DE from Central Arkansas has been drafted by Jacksonville in the 6th round. Interesting to see players from such schools as West Texas A & M, Montana, S Dakota St., Southern Illinois, James Madison, and the like drafted. Strong showing for the WAC on day one with three first rounders. The MWC had no one taken, and the Pac-10 had only one (Tyson Alualu from Cal).
whitey
got your messages. all is well in Hilo nei. rain. more rain. 😀
dealing with 2 nincompoops. same people. in the Intermediate Court of Appeals. In the Circuit Court. In the US District Court. In the 9th Cir. Ct of Appeals. They been gettin lickins and about to get the lickins of their lives. its all about applicaton of beasty tactics. fast feet. fast feet.
i can see the lite of day, even if the lite is far away still yet.
hi ho.
ST – heard that Advertiser editor Mark Platte is going to be the news director at KGMB/KHNL. Rick Blangiardi is the big dog there and he’s the chief of Na Koa. Would be ideal for them to hire you to improve their UH athletics coverage.
What about working for UH???
The OT from Hillsdale College is the one that caught my eye. I wonder how he will adjust to the speed in the NFL?
What I love about the NFL draft is it is blind to classifications.
The NFL doesn’t care if a player comes from a BCS team or not.
Loyalty is dead, too.
Pete Carroll drafted another safety instead of Taylor Mays.
Good Morning Tsaikos and bighilofan2:
Figured you’re working hard and overtime. Come out to play when you get chance. : mrgreen:
sj &myki
The lineups are in, according to the Nevada Web site, and Amanda Tauali‘i is batting … seventh?
After I just wrote the Rainbow Wahine have won 11 in a row with her in the eighth spot?
Then again, who’s to argue with Coolen this year?
Good Morning Tsaikos!!
It’s not too late to pick me
BHF2 –
Glad to see you are still watching the blog.
Monday lunch is bad but be glad to talk story anytime during the day – coffee, afternoon tea or what have you is OK.
Yep, Mays is irked:

ITS NOT TO LATE TO PICK
I got to check out Pepperdine’s practice yesterday. The Waves are tall. Interesting duel will be between Pepperdine’s Maurice Torres and UH’s Jonas Umlauft.
Stretch, Rob25, PowderPuff and A-Joe will need to be at the top of their game.
Good morning, gangeez!
It’s not too late to pick me.
Is anyone who speaks Japanese going to be at practice this afternoon?
7TH ROUND HAS STARTED….
Time to think about Free Agent options.
have fun at the MVB game tonight for me!
Rob25, PP and d1 will have to step up for tonight’s match, AJoe can’t make it.
Slugger,
Teriyaki.
Oh no! 😯
Crucial Conversationalist Co-captain can’t come?
What the hell? She tryin to be funny?
Kazz:
She was answering my question about whether she had documentation.
Stephanie Ricketts starting Game 2 of series against Nevada.
Mallary Darby starting for Nevada. Holverson to sit. Could be a BIG game two for all the Wahine and Majam could really do some damage.
i would like to be picked, but i need to come home first. Go Warriors!!!
***Another batting order change for the Wahine on the road:
1. 0 cf Majam, Kelly
2. 1 ss Iwata, Jessica
3. 33 3b Gonzalez, Melissa
4. 13 dp Rodriguez, Jenna
5. 14 lf Aguirre, Alexandra
6. 19 rf Pu’u-Warren, Kanani
7. 24 1b Tauali’i, Amanda
8. 21 c Grimes, Katie
9. 18 2b Yoshikawa, Traci
Gotta love the Nevada folks.
In the official box score, under weather, it says: awesome.
Hawaii 1st
Majam, K. struck out swinging (2-2 SFBFBS).
Iwata, J. singled to left field (3-0 BBB).
Gonzalez, M. singled to right field (0-0); Iwata, J. advanced to second.
Gonzalez, M. advanced to second; Iwata, J. advanced to third on a wild pitch.
Rodriguez, J walked (3-2 BBKBSB).
Aguirre, A. flied out to lf (1-0 B).
Pu’u-Warren, struck out swinging (0-2 FKS).
0 runs, 2 hits, 0 errors, 3 LOB.
I dont get how to read Nevada’s play by play stuff. They only list two batters grounding out and then the following post already reads the end of the inning with Nevada at 0 runs, 0 hits, and 0 LOB…
Ok NOW they update the 3rd Nevada batter.
WAHINE 0
Nevada 0
Bottom of 1st.
AMANDA TAUALI’I SINGLE HOMER!!!
WAHINE 1
Nevada 0
Top of 2nd, 0 outs.
BHF2!
Good to hear from you! Hello & hugs to Susan, too. I did start volunteering w/ Na Koa, but I should ask again in the AD office. Maybe Amanda needs help.
d1 ~ I had to call my friend in Flagstaff to translate for me last year when meeting a couple from Japan on campus. They are here again. Taking them to the football practice, if they want to go, since there will be Japanese coaches there.
Off to watch my niece (2 run homer on Wed.!) play softball for St. Francis at the Ala Wai. Good luck to them since they are playing Iolani.
Lots of running around today. See some of you this afternoon & tonight. Have a great one, gangeez!
Should we start to be worried about Majam? Five Ks in five at-bats.
Maybe the order changed for this game today. I wasnt paying attention to the live stats that much yesterday. I was just trying not to screw up loan closing docs while at work… 😳
Damnit again! Majam walks after a full count. Two outs for the Wahine. Majam the only one on base at the moment.
Nah! …
OH CRAP!!!
JESSICA IWATA WITH A TWO RUN HOMER!!!

Whoever is running WAC Softball’s Twitter and the WAC Softball Blogspot site is really sounding like a Fresno State homer.
Little side remarks of Majam striking out and UH “doing it again” at elevation.. yadda yadda yadda…
🙄
…wondering if it’s wrong to check da blog from church…
Nevada 2nd
Starr, K. lined out to 2b (1-2 KBFF).
Lastrapes, L lined out to lf (0-0).

If you’re Catholic, anything you do is supposed to be wrong.
I cannot speak for other religions.
Thanks Kazz…for the update! Are you watching on Nevada Sports Online?
Wahine have the bases loaded after they walked Tauali’i… Wahine with 0 outs.
All “speedsters” on base for UH. Aguirre at 3rd, Tagab-Cruz at 2nd, and Buchannan at 1st. ZERO outs for UH.
CLUTCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Still Top of 3rd with ZERO OUTS and Yoshikawa at 3rd and Majam at 2nd.
ST,
Yup… No worries… 😎
BG,
Nah, just the usual live stats.
well there goes the streak.
the 5k streak that is.
next thing she’ll be landing some bombs over the wall.
gotta keep in contention for the hr lead.
bhf2,
Nice to hear from you again!
el guapo,
Davis may not be so crazy on this one; Campbell is better than anyone they got now. Almost wish it was Colt that was going to the Raiders. At least he would get a bona fide shot to beat out anyone there. I’m getting frustrated with his stint in Washington, which I initially thought would be good for him. I admit I was wrong. Thought Zorn would be good for Colt, but he turned out to be a SCHMUCK! It has tarnished my good memory of Zorn as a gunslinging, devil-may-care left-handed bomber. How could I possibly anticipate he’d turn into a constipated, footwork-obsessed, incompetent excuse for a coach..
Iwata, J. reached on a fielding error by 2b (1-2 BFK); Yoshikawa, T scored.
WAHINE 8
Nevada 0
STILL Top of 3rd, with ZERO outs with Majam at 2nd and Iwata at 1st.
i like the aggression that coolen demands at the plate.
the first goal is to race to 8 by the 5th.
it is amazing the way we have been lighting up the sky this year. perhaps a record for most players with double digit homers in a season has already been had. that would be a tough one to break in the future.
Good morning everyone! …again 😕
ST — that finger pix looks like it should be headed to the emergency room.
Kazz…the video on Nevada Sports Online is really good…even when I make it full screen (23″ monitor).
I’m supposed to be working on my 2 papers for class, but its hard to tear myself away. Should have stayed with live stats.
Gonzalez, M. doubled to left field, RBI (0-1 F); Iwata, J. advanced to third; Majam, K. scored.
Holverson, K to p for Darby, M..
WAHINE 9
Nevada 0
STILL TOP OF THE FREAKIN THRID INNING WITH NO OUTS FOR THE WAHINE….
WAIT!!! AS I TYPE THIS JUST HAPPENS:
Rodriguez, J homered to left field, 3 RBI (0-1 K); Gonzalez, M. scored; Iwata, J. scored, unearned.
WAHINE 12
Nevada 0
TOP of 3rd, ZERO FREAKIN OUTS!!!
was that teriyaki sauce on the middle finger?
Go SoftBows!!
Go BaseBows! Keep pouring it on… seems like that’s the only way for them to beat La Tech, since can’t always depend on Sisto. See, they’re banging Sisto again! WTF! What’s the deal! There’s just so little consistency with the pitching..
ST,
I guess the Nevada people aren’t feeling so “AWESOME” about the game and now about the weather.
They just changed the weather report from “awesome” to just “sunny and breezy”.
kazzman…how many mercy rule killings have we this year?
MY GOD…
Aguirre, A. walked (3-0 BBBB).
Pu’u-Warren, to rf for Tagab-Cruz,.
Pu’u-Warren, homered to left field, 2 RBI (1-2 FFB); Aguirre, A. scored.
WAHINE 14
Nevada 0
TOP OF 3rd and NO outs…
Stephen:
Did you pick up my phone message from yesterday? Just wanted to give you specifics about the CIP budget and whom you should contact to give some props for what has passed out.
ALL OF THE CIP APPROPRIATIONS FOR ALOHA STADIUM AND UH-MANOA IMPROVEMENTS ARE IN THE CONFERENCE DRAFT BUDGET WHICH WILL BE VOTED ON NEXT WEEK BY THE ENTIRE LEGISLATURE.
It is possible but highly unlikely that the Governor will veto the budget bill; however, what is much more likely to happen is that she will not authorize the start of the funding process on July 1 but instead will leave the paperwork on the desk for the next Fifth Floor Occupant to deal with sometime after December, 2010.
Specifically, the Department of Budget & Finance and the Department of Accounting & General Services will be the ones working with the UH Chancellor’s office. Will track down the specific human being(s) who will be overseeing the various projects sometime during the next couple of months.
Need to keep the pressure on the Gov – old or new – because it takes about a year to start the plan/design process, three to six months for the bidding process, and perhaps as long as four months for the construction phase.
Will confirm that the plans for the softball stadium upgrades include the possibility of creating under the bleachers both locker facilities as well as on-site restroom facilities for the public and an expansion of the refreshment area and press box. Since electricity & plumbing are already avaialbe, the critical issue is to make sure that there is enough room under the stands to build these facilities. it is my understand
It is also my understanding that many of the improvements will be a public-private partnership; details will come out much later in the planning & design process.
DrDoc is watching the computer stats on the Softbows – 12-0. Where’s the Mercy Rule?

BG: I have a case study draft due today that I didn’t start until yesterday. Yet here I am, watching the Yanks-Angels game on TV and keeping track of draft picks online, while uploading videos for church. 😛
Karl Benson needs to step in via telephone and stop this madness…
Im not even kidding.
Huh? Bowsballers???
Typically when referring to the different team sports the term “ballers” typifies basketball players.
But its okay to create your own.
Perhaps, BaseBows would be more recognizable.
So, Tennessee drafted safeties in the 5th and 6th rounds. Unfortunately for Ryan Mouton, they drafted a CB out of UCLA in the 4th round…and told him that he will have an immediate chance to play. This means that the Titans now have *5* CBs competing for 1 starting spot.
Tennessee traded up because they wanted this specific CB…so, Mouton will have a huge battle during all the camps this summer to hold him off as well as all the other CBs who want to earn a spot.
ooooo…majam is up to the plate.
Good to hear from bhf2 again!
That hand don’t look so good….
Ok… somewhere in the madness Nevada finally recorded three outs one of which Majam struck out.

NFL Draft ends with no Warriors selected. Now the FA game starts …
BaseBows continue the assault, 10-4 middle of 4th
According to NFL.com, the WAC ended up with 5 drafted players. The NFL like the top-tier of the WAC’s talent but it does not appear that the WAC had much depth in draftable players:
Round 1:
Iupati (Idaho)
Matthews (Fresno State)
Wilson (BSU)
Round 3:
Smith (La Tech)
Round 6:
Morris (La Tech)
NFL draft pau – 255 picks.
weber state WR last pick – WEBER STATE !!!
looks like Warriors go FA; but get to “choose” their team.
Someone posted that the MWC did not have any 1st round draft picks, but TCU’s Jerry Hughes was drafted in the first round. NFL.com states that the MWC had 13 drafted players.
John Estes really should have been drafted–I don’t understand how so many other centers were drafted instead of him. Even worse, teams that drafted a center are not good options for Estes to sign with as a free agent.
Here we go again…

kazz…laying down a bunt is more insulting. swing away, no stealing, no hit n run, not trying for the extra base, stuff like that shows more baseball/softball etiquette.
if this were international softball there’s a fifteen run mercy rule after four innings.
Teams that drafted centers this year:
Pitt, 1st round
Denver, 3rd round
Denver, 6th round–They drafted 2 centers!
New Orleans, 5th round
Washington, 7th round
I couldn’t believe that Washington took a center from New Mexico in the 7th round instead of Estes. It would have been nice to have Estes with Colt there.

Indy would be a really good fit for Estes. I could see him succeeding Jeff Saturday.
Al,
Those Fresno State homers that most likely are running WAC’s softball twitter site cant stand what we’re doing knowing they’re looking at possible “DEATH” next weekend at Manoa.
al, that’s what i was thinking. too close to call. hahaha
Man, Coach Coolen ain’t messing around against Nevada, he only subbed Pagaduan for Yoshikawa at 2nd and Yoshikawa for Iwata at SS.
I think more of the other players should at LEAST enjoy this final inning.

Good afternoon Tsaiko Nation, can ANY local Tsaiko give an update to Bryant Moniz situation ? With the young man having a personal leave then being reinstated my fears are this will be another Tyler Graunke situation in which his GREAT play of last year will not have an opportunity to repeat this year.
Frankly, I can’t understand why this situation is even happening as there is more to this story then being told as going with another quaterback who is unproven over a proven and experience KEY player that Moniz represents is mind boggling and dissapointing to say the least.
Watching this walk on “SUPERSTAR” was a refreshing experience last year as he brought toughness with running/throwing capabilities as this season every UH Warrior fan was looking forward to a full season coming from Moniz as his fan base is HUGHE with so many “LOVING” and respecting his tremendous potential !
I hope he will be back “LEADING” the team as it will be a crying shame that he was only just a figmant of my imagination !
The only thing I’ll say about the Moniz thing is that it’s a shame that when certain reporters that know what the deal is decide to spill it to other people when they shouldn’t out of respect for all involved.
NO, I am not talking about Stephen.
The Satele Ohana reunited in OAKLAND!!!
Congrats to John “EXCELLENTE” Estes as well!!!
At least the guys didn’t have to wait too long.

Mr. Kazz, I gather from your remarks that “what ever” the story is concerning Moniz certain reports was brought out in which it shouldn’t of out of respect to the young man and coaching staff. From watching videos of him he seems to be humble, surreal and a likeable young man with so much “POTENTIAL” as I find it hard to believe that it is a discipline problem or breaking team rules situation.
A walk on who has a child and moonlights as a delivery pizza guy is a great story of “perserverance that builds character” as Moniz is all of that and so much more with local ties to the Island that definetly had every local Hawaii fan “PROUD” that he is playing as a Warrior and looking forward to his stellar play this season and beyound !
We can only hope he will be back and given every opportunity to lead this football team as frankly with out him starting or playing it is going to be a “TOUGH” dissapointing season with out the “SUPERSTAR” !
Mahalo Mr. Kazz for shedding some light to the situation !

I don’t understand, ESPN comments on Colt McCoy-basically he will succeed, his size doesn’t matter, because he has the intangibles. Hey, they said Colt was too small (light weight) to be an NFL qb, a qb in shotgun formation, but McCoy ran a spread option passing game from under center, he was not a typical drop back passer.

McCoy played for Texas and that’s enough for ESPN.
Follow the ESPN Formulas:
Shotgun spread QB in the WAC = failure
Shotgun spread QB in a BCS school = AWESOME
Shotgun spread option QB in the SEC = God Incarnate and can do no wrong no matter what.
Mr. Tsai Meister, can you shed ANY light to the Bryant Moniz situation as I found out on this story just last week and living in LA all Hawaii news is late as this is a ‘shocking story’ that has me baffled, confused and disbelief !
You are sir the ‘beat writer’ so what is the beat as scholarship issue, blow up at the coach or daughter illness has been rumored as were we are right now it has been alleged he may or won’t be back playing this season or any other season ?

Moniz is not a team player and I hope the Coach keeps him off.
didn’t know that Hue Jackson is the new Oakland OC, formerly with the Ravens and worked with the qb there.
OC don’t last too long at Oakland, but is it the OC or the under performance of the qb and the receivers. Heyward-Bey has made zero catches in a few games or definitely 2 or less.
Mr. bb I have read the message boards as the information I am sharing has been said and the situation is he is not playing and there is a problem. Being positive is one thing but reality is another !
I hope he does play this football season and IF not I will leave my comments to myself.

Ralph,
I have serious doubts as to whether or not Colt McCoy will make it in the NFL, but he had several advantages that Colt Brennan did not have:
1. McCoy weighed more than Brennan even before Brennan lost something like 20 pounds due to illness before the first time the NFL weighed him after his senior season. Once the “too small” label is stuck on a player, the scouts have a hard time forgetting about it. Brennan lost weight all through the 2007 season due to the demands of the media (he was interviewed so long that at times he missed entire training table meals) and fans (who bothered him everywhere-classes, home, etc.). Getting sick made him weigh in something like 30+ pounds less than McCoy’s first weigh in with NFL scouts.
No matter what UH fans like us may think, it is a FACT that Brennan’s weight hurt him in the draft. The “too small” criticisms came *after* he had that shocking weigh in…and the fact was that at that point he *was* too small! Even Brennan’s most loyal boosters here admitted that at the time.
2. Bess, RGM, and Rivers all couldn’t run when Brennan threw during UH’s Pro Day…it was hard to make a good impression then and show that the weight he had gained since the combine (he was still too light when he went to the combine) did not affect his throwing. McCoy had healthy receivers to throw to and made a good impression at his pro day.
It did NOT help Colt when his receivers were injured during Pro Day. If they all were healthy, I believe that their chemistry with Colt would have resulted in an awesome exhibition which would have impressed the scouts. That would have helped Colt, Bess, RGM, and possibly Rivers (though the NFL was focused on his injuries and might have stayed away anyway).
3. McCoy played against better competition, with faster closing speed for the DBs and faster pass rushers. McCoy faced pass rushes similar to what Brennan faced with Georgia–the film of the last Oklahoma game will show that Oklahoma’s pass rush dominated Texas’ OL and their DBs covered the WRs well…so, McCoy threw a lot of balls away or to his safety valves. The film of the Sugar Bowl does not show Brennan doing that.
I’m guessing that many people will be upset with this post…but I hate for people to think that everything is a conspiracy against Hawaii without looking at some things that explain part of the problem.
Congratulations to John Estes, Brashton Satele, and Ray Hisatake! I hope that they are able to earn their spots on their teams just like Bess did.

The two posters (or one poster with two names) are not regulars here. Believe what you want, but rumors are exactly what the label says. I would wait until someone is able to list a credible source that can be validated. Until then, its just chasing shadows. Not too long ago, people were posting with all certainty that a certain head football coach had a baby with a star VB player. Many people were believing it…all too funny…people, that is.
BG
Garret, I am not upset at all as I thank you for your detail and inside info on the two Colts !
Mr. Brennan has a LARGE following on this blog but the fact remains he has not played a full season with issues and injuries being the source of his problems.
With Campbell being traded it is hopefull that Colt gets a chance BUT with McNabb certain to be the starting quaterback then his window of opportunity gets smaller with every snap that Donovan takes.
One thing for sure we all will be watching Redskins football very closely this NFL season !
Kazz,
You’re almost as good as Les Keiter…we gotta get you the sound props.
BG Sir ! Mahalo for clearing the last two posters statements as I was ‘FLOORED’ to hear what they have said as judging from videos that I have seen on Moniz he shows a quiet and decent personality.
I am aware of your last statement on certain coach and vb player as I thought we were way passed that kind of rumor BUT what was just posted from ‘da rumor’ and ‘anon’ I became shocked on their ill explanation to Moniz.
I hope his situation can be resolved and see #17 back on the field as for darumor and anon shame on you for misleading me and spreading terrible remarks on Mr. Bryant Moniz.
You two better watch out as a lawsuit can come your way charging you with “defamation of character” !
AW crap, I get chance for go, but have made other plans(family dinner). ST can you give them to someone who can go? Thanks wafan.
Re-This coach should play a different tune
Somewhere in America there was a college football head coach that made these lofty predictions about his players having long NFL careers, being first day picks and making them out to be great, great players. That was the tune he played-before last season, during the season and maybe up to two years ago.
The season before, same thing, especially in how he elevated his two linebackers as can’t miss guys.
They all missed, seemingly.
They all missed the boat, probably, or the taste of first day money.Now, regretfully, some of the players the head coach said as being the best he’s been around are resigned to try out money and long shots at making a team.
The boat the head coaches players missed, carried all the other collegiate players that made into the NFL, probably, more so, because their head coaches played a different tune. A tune that wasn’t exalting. A tune, instead, that would light a fire under them so they’d strive towards getting better. And better prepared, better hungered and better determined. A tune that would keep them grounded and small headed, and not one that decorated them with platitudes and lofty predictions.
The tail of the two types of coaches on this post NFL draft day.
One is wagging his tail, happily, for basically having the wherewithal of knowing how to get the best out of his players . The other one has his head in his tail because the tune he played got the worst out of his players.
When this head coaches assistant appeared on a talk radio show recently. He was given the question of what he thought of his junior college transfer, whom was an offensive tackle now moving over to the guard position, never had a taste of D-1 ball, and was asked his thoughts of this player being touted a NFL prospect. After a long pause, he answered, yet dodged the questions “all my offensive linemen have NFL size, scouts will be looking at their body of work and taking notes of their play.” Great answer by this coach. Inspire the players on.Light the fire. Not dwarf them with decorations.
In his quiet moment this head coach with his head in his tail, somewhere in America, should reflect on this. And change his tune.
Hello, Bighilofan2 – nice to see you posting again!
Gotta love the wahine sofball team!
Great to see the “other” players hitting the long ball helping to take the heat off Majam, Iwata, and Taulii.
Safe trip home and get ready for Fresno St!

Hey! Mr. A-House…after being inspired by these talented, awesome softball players, are you giving the old futs’ league a second thought? Could use some speed in the outfield! LOL
now comes the tough part. trying to stay up for the mvb game….
Sooooo, what’s Nevada’s team ERA now?
Haka,
Easy on the “Les Kiter” stuffs. All I did was cut and paste the live stats. 😆
All Colt has to do is be better than 2QB’s
Then get a real contract, This is his contract year as they say in Baseball
ERA of U.GLY. 😎
I see that the list for the UH-Colorado game attendees on 9/18 is starting to expand this early. Nice! That said,
On September 19th, the Denver Broncos are scheduled to play a home-game against the Seahawks.
Just an FYI for the folks who are planning on heading out there are they needed (or wanted) something else to do while they are out there…..
anything heard for blaze?
Go VolleyBows!
Topple George’s school!!!
So Ed Case is at the entrance of the campus sign waving with a UH shirt on…
Hmmm…. No UH band in sight right now… I hope both the band and the cheerleaders are here tonight.
Nevermind!!! The BAND will be here!!!
Huzzah for the BowBand or is it the WarBand.
band is slowly trickling in. the front-row Tsaikos are here. midori, stretch, rob25, hiflyer, pp. sj & myki in their usual seats. no sign of the cheerleaders, tho.
Local people are notorious for showing up late and blaming ticket office people…
Can you guys keep an eye out for gib & the
two recruits, I’m sure they’ll be there at the game
tonight. Can you all give us an update later. Thx
Go Warriors!!!
Gib got introduced. Sitting near the band. I’m too far to get a good look at who’s with him.
c’mon guys. you had a 4 point lead!
wow, this is the quietest i’ve ever seen this place. everyone is at the game i see.
c’mon warriors! hold onto that lead!
Anybody get the names of the basketball recruits?
concentrate!! make less self mistakes than them!!!
blaze is mulling over which team to workout for, miano said hes most likely going to workout for the 2011 super bowl champs, new york jets
Local people are notorious for showing up late and blaming ticket office people…

HTTR!
Brooks Baehr is about to have a stroke from where I am sitting.

Ouch. Sore fingahs pictcha !
WARRIORS WIN!!!!
AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW YEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GO WARRIORS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
G’NITE!
VICTORY, GO VBOWS!!!!
WAIT, GOOD MORNING!
Back home from a Memorial service for a very dear cousin just in time to watch the mvb team win!
Way to go team. Great win coach Wade. Now take it to Stanford and show them what this game is all about!
Their team name is WARRIORS, same as the FB team. There is no “Rainbow” in their name. Yet, the entire match people were shouting, “Let’s Go Bows” and people here keep calling them the Bows. UH needs to standardize the team names so people stop getting confused.
Sounded like the SSC was rockin’ and the fans were really getting into it.
No doubt the Tsaiko faithful added to the noise level.
GO BOWS, GO WARRIORS, JUST GO………………………CHEEEE HOOOOOO
Kazz, you one super reporter. I felt like I was at the game. Was waiting for updates and presto chango there it was.
#366, of course Kazz i was talking about today’s softball. both games. mahalo!
Kazz,
i want to make a bobble head doll of you, would love to have you bobbing on my dashboard when i drive around town….haha 🙂
Congrats to the Wahines, the Rainbows, and the Rainbow Warriors. What a day!!!!!
Just back from the game.
Great day to be a UH fan!
Great win by the Warriors!
Da house was a rockin’!
Felt like the good ‘ol days.
The Sunday paper is always better after Saturdays like today…
If you’re a UH fan!
Auuuuryte!
DPK & Sweety were sitting a few rows down from me & my Mom. What a game!
Congratulations to all of the UH teams who played today! Way to go!
Heart-stopping matches for the BaseBows & VolleyBows, but with satisfying endings. Hope I get my voice back by Monday. My steering wheel & dashboard took a beating though while i was listening to the last half of the baseball game.
Congrats to all the UH teams today!
It was awesome tonight – the Stan was a-rockin’ & a-rolling’ !!
And guess what! No one in our area left early to avoid a possible traffic jam! First time I’ve seen that happen in kazillion seasons no matter what sport.
Although several UH coaches and teams were there tonight, one was not -Dave Shoji. Given his kids’ affiliation with Stanford, for whom will he be cheering this Thursday?
Again, congratulations to the SoftBows, the BaseBows and the WaBows. Jees Luise – if a team can be proud of being called The Dirtbags or The Beavers or The Hokies, then what’s wrong with Rainbow Warriors? I know, I know – too fa^^otty for manly men, but that didn’t stop the original Warriors.
The Crowd .
The Band.
The Warriors.
The Rubber Band Man.
The Baton Twirling Wonder Girl.
The Garlic Fries.
The win!
There hasn’t a better, more exciting men’s college volleyball match played this year. Anywhere.
Nuff said.
*cue crickets and lonely harmonica music*
OMG! I almost had a heart attack at the game. Now I have to go find my voice by tomorrow. Da Stanley wuz rockin’.
ST – cluck cluck.
Garrett, thanks for the note on the Rhodes Scholar being drafted. Glad to see the scholar in the college athlete being reinforced.
DPK,
The MVB replay is on. Perhaps people are watching. I’m going to set up to record the rest of the game on a timer. Gotta hit the hay. Good to see you and Sweety, as well as all of the other Tsaikos in the Stanley.
* cue crickets again *
Night!
Echoing all sentiments of the others who were at the VolleyBows game. Absolutely amazing!
Any reports from the scrimmage earlier today?
Anyone seen my voice? I think I left it at the Stanley. 😆
Capitol -ist/WassupDoc,
For me personally, it has nothing to do with being a “manly man”. I never said that I had a problem with the name Rainbow Warriors and I certainly never used the offensive term that you did. I still cheer for the Rainbow Baseball and Rainbow Warrior Basketball teams. The MVB team chose to be called Warriors, just like the Football team did. The name Warriors is what is published in their Media Guide. Out of respect for their choice, I believe they should be called by that name.
My other point is that from a marketing standpoint, you have to come up with a consistent nickname for your teams. If ardent fans are confused on the name(s) of your teams, you have big problems. You can expect that non-local announcers and media entities will consistently call them by the wrong name as well. It happens all of the time. If we really want to spread the reach of our “brand”, we can ill afford to go around confusing everyone.
Nevertheless, great wins for all of the UH teams today. If I didn’t have friends coming into town on Thursday, I would think long and hard about making the trip to Palo Alto.
With three OL and 2 receivers, the draft looked favorable for Colt. Now Donovan McNabb will break in the new OL (read “cannon fodder”) while Colt gets ready to take the reins – hopefully.
