74–Mahalo nui—bottom line, whether he said it or not, lets not extrapolate too much out of the momentary musings of a young man.

Aloha all. I do not know any specific facts of Mr. Fonua’s situation, but will volunteer the following. In this age of a 24/7 information cycle coupled with the advent of social media–well, it lends to a diaspora of stories and half-truths.

Further, and the more relevant point, having been in many a locker room, dissatisfaction of playing time and threat of leaving is a daily staple, among the players. Most everyone was a prime-time player in a former life, and thus, being a role player is not something that one easily settles into and/or accepts. The bows of the early 80s, had no fewer than 7-8 starters that were previously with other programs. So, again to restate–I know nothing of the present situation, but to say, is be careful on what you say and who you say it to (which is applicable to not just a college athlete, a blogger, or anyone else) things can be easily misconstrued in a moment of frustration and taken entirely out of context, in a moment’s notice.

FUHA – scout message board is troll city, pointless negativity, name calling, etc. Have to agree. There seems to be a middle school mentality on that board.

Glad to here Mr Fonua is a Warrior…..fan of his and many more. I too am sick of all the negaitve garbage spewed in the name of being a fan…..I like many more are supporters and fan does not even closely resemble my passion. As for that other board I do not see posting as worthy simply because it has an overabundance of pusillanmous cretinism that spend way too much time in negativeville…….Go Warriors!!!!!
