Football clinic for women is set
The second Heather McMackin Football Clinic for Women is scheduled for Aug. 26 at 7 p.m.
It will start off in the Stan Sheriff Center. The second part of the program will be on Cooke/Ching field.
UH head coach Greg McMackin said his wife’s program will feature some changes from last year’s clinic.
“Everybody had a great time last year,” Greg McMackin said. “It’ll be even better this year.”
The cost is expected to be $10, and will include heavy pupus and a strategy book.
* * * * *
The UH-Navy game is expected to be picked up by ESPN-U — a decision that will impact the pay-per-view schedule. By claiming to be available to a potential 50 million viewers, ESPN-U can wrest the game away from K5, use its own production crew, and show it live — and for free — on its cable channel.
Can we show up for the heavy pupus?
Aloha All!
Play Hard!
‘n
Play Nice!
Go Warriors!
ST, if the clinic starts at 7 pm, about what time will it end? What does “heavy” pupus really mean? (In Hawaii, all pupus are “heavy”.) Just need to know if I need to eat “dinner” first.
Pride.
I with you on that…-)
Good Morning Warrior Nation and Tsaikos!
i’m with pride and LTUHF
Can us guys attend, or is this restricted to ….
I don’t think they would prohibit a guy from going, if he really wanted to go.
WooHoo Top 10!
what did the pordagee termite say to the other pordagee termite after eating one coconut tree in micronesia?
let’s go eat samoa.
sorry, just heard it on the radio.
please smu if inappropriate 🙂
If guys can go, I suppose it’s better than dressing in drag…..or something li’dat.
Heavy pupus would be quite an experience ….
Hi Bulla,
Congrats to “The Beast” for being named to his conference’s pre-season All- Star team at DL!
I’d love to attend that clinic…this is a great tradition that Heather McMackin is starting.
post 12 — wow. Congrats from me too.
Just so people know, you can’t just request to be SMU’d.
It’s like a defendant asking for the death penalty.
There are certain procedures.
Hi Garret,
Just read Momo’s post congratulating Jason on his position at his alma mater…Didn’t realize that your Dad was a teacher for 50 years! Just did the math and he would be my contemporary…so congrats to him for his dedicated service to the kids of Hawaii!
I tried to post at 12:05 this morning.
That’s when the lights went out on Blogland.
Then I noticed there was an e-mail about “unscheduled” maintenance, although I think by sending out the e-mail, it sort of negated the part about “unscheduled.”
Princess Leila texted last night to say she was on the same flight to Cali with Colt Brennan.
Pride ~ My chance to display a little dazzling footwork on the buffet line. It’s all about technique and the Angle of Attack!
Perhaps we’ll have a chance to see that footwork next week Kekoa.
So, I’m thinking, if some guys were to try to go to the women’s clinic, it would be a good idea:
1) to not make a play for the women.
2) to not go in the front of the “heavy pupus” line.
(By the way, I asked Mack: Growing up in Oregon, did you ever think you’d use the phrase, heavy pupus?)
Good Morning Gangeez! 🙂
Scouting, Kekoa, scouting. I always walk the whole buffet line first to determine where to focus my efforts.
Top 25! Amazing!
Good morning Hawaii – and best wishes OTUHF! Glad to see Pride up so early!
That reminds me of a friend of mine who works at a fitness center. He’s about twice big as I am and ten times as mean. His pet peeve is men who hit on women while they’re working out. He enjoys kicking them out of the gym and asking them not too return.
When I say that he kicks them? I mean that literally.
I think rule is if guys do go they need to wear a dress and lipstick.
Where would we find dresses that would fit?!
Very cool!
Howdy Slugger!
Hows your possibly porcine predicament faring this morning? And hows the war on slugs going?
Happy Aloha Friday!
I wish I could go to the clinic… I’ll have to plan next year’s trip home for the end of August…
dresses or nothing at all!!!…I woud go wit da 2nd option…neva catch me in a dress….oh, of course I cannot make it cause I live in Texas ladat!!
Good morning Tsaikos….Yeah, what time are the pupus served?? hmmmm…are they going to be running drills on Cooke/Ching Field…???
DPK…there are many plus size places where you can shop for your attire….MWAHAHAHHAHA
JJ-
Excellent! I thought I was going to have borrow something from your sweet friend with the initials KM.
Good morning people!
Pride – I work out solo…
For $10? Heck yeah! I’m in for heavy pupus!
So (J)J asks, is there a cc next week? Is there?
DPK – There are many places that sell 48DD bras for you too.
Homey…#35…how you know DPK is 48DD??? MWHAHAHAHAHA
Good morning all
Gotta tell Betty about the clinic!
homey…what’s a “zebra”? Tell DPK it’s the largest size he can get…
Break over…back to work…
Not funny guys. I’m back to a 48D at least…
DPK,
Fever! In the morning
Fever all through the night
That about sums it up. Comes & goes. No energy to water plants this a.m. Had to find someone to do that for me. Slugs just hiding under the empty cups & not eating much. So, the Light beer that I have in the pantry is going to the next Tsaiko get together.
You guys can wear mu’umu’us! You live Hawai’i. Can find beeg ones.
Back to the couch. This flu gives you a headache.
I wouldn’t be daring enough to go to the Womens FB Clinic, even less to step to the front (or middle) of the buffet line.
What an outstanding coupe for UH and McMackin and special kudos to Rick Blangiardi, for landing this FOX deal. I’m tickled. Should winning go hand in hand with this opportunity, it could reap very tangible benefits.
Seems to be turning into a badge of honor, of sorts.
Wonder when someone will come out with the T-shirt? I Got SMU’d in Paradise! 😉
You might ask him if he ever thought he’d be enunciating the “h” in “Aloha”, too!
I wouldn’t even consider jumping to the front of the heavy pupu line.
I might, however, ask if they needed help “setting up”!
heheheh
Slugger,
Rest up! Hope you’re better by the weekend….
😳
…too late!
Morning Tsaikos!
Hope the heavy pupus are before the clinic. Watching or participating in drills on Ching Field?
Really miss the Leahey & Leahey show.
I realize a lot of what I’m reading lately has to do with the current financial crisis, but your post is another story 🙂 thank you for sharing this!
Hello everyone.
How about add $5 for the clinic, includes 2 free ice cold beverages.
Merry Aloa Friday — if you are from Oregon.

ST ~ #47 Wants to test your SMU authority.
These people have no class! We haven’t even had time to set the menu or anything, and they just step right in front and become Buffet Butt-in-ski’s!
heavy pupus?
what time?
they need an official taster?
or how about security?
always need security right?
Stephen:
Could you find out more information as to how this year’s clinic will differ from last year’s. Mahalo.
The first 45 minutes or so featured a PowerPoint presentation on the Life & Times of the McMackin Family and how they came to Hawai`i followed by brief introductions of the coaching staff and what their duties were. We then quickly skimmed through the handout with about ten minutes left for Q&A plus a look from afar at a uniform from the outside in.
Many of the O`ahu Tsaikette regulars were there sitting together right in the front about ten rows below where I sat Was able to exchange Howzits with a few of them afterwards at the reception.
I hope this time that the event organizers will allow more time for each coach to make a more detailed presentation as well as to allow the coaching staff to talk about recruiting. Perhaps the Athletic Director could also be persuaded to talk about fund-raising and the need for developing more community support for the team.
BTW – the pupu spread was quite nice.
speaking about muumuu’s i wonder if the muumuu lady is going to the clinic?
cc?
I wonder if Jason will ask Gigi for a muumuu again..
Homey,
Remember the Sienfeld’s ep where Kramer was marketing the “BRO” for men….
Oh… Koamahu must be skipping for joy for this camp

Long Time UH Fan,
I’m sure that Momo will appreciate your post when he reads it today. He is being forced by the State to not be paid as a teacher by the State for one year. They plan to hire him back once the year is over.
There have been some problems at the school with the students now that Momo isn’t teaching. They asked Momo to teach some classes to get things straightened out, which he started to do while I was still in Hawaii. He agreed to do that even though he cannot be paid, so the State was paying his replacement to sit around somewhere in a room away from the students while Momo taught the classes for free!
Hopefully Momo won’t have to teach many more classes, but he’ll still be going into the school just about every day because he has to take care of his hydroponic gardens. That is a great fundraiser for the school…so, he’s making money for the school and maintaining and improving an award-winning hydroponics setup without getting paid!
BSU is getting a *big* payday to open next season against Virginia Tech. They are playing at the Redskins stadium instead of at Virginia Tech and the Redskins will promote the game and get them a lot of national attention. Going from a game vs. Miami (Ohio) to a game against Virginia Tech is really upgrading their schedule.
The Redskins plan to do one college football game per year…if Colt gets the starting job there in a year or two he can hopefully lobby for them to get UH for one of these games…neutral site game, national TV, $1.25 million payday would be great!
The Big 12 Commissioner is trying to change the eligibility rules for football–FIVE seasons of eligibility, no redshirt year, no medical redshirt. Regular students are taking about 5 years on average to graduate, so why shouldn’t football players get 5 years to graduate also? Players can always leave early for the NFL if they wish, but this way teams would get the benefit of having a player play all 5 years instead of having them being on scholarship as a redshirt one year or having them leave after playing their first 4 years.
Another benefit is that freshmen would get a chance to play instead of having their coaches worry about burning a redshirt year.
It would also save Athletic Departments money.
Aloha Kakahiaka!
Wow- I just had a shocking morning. Literally.
Went to my first PT session for my shoulders. It included electric shock treatments.
DPK- you’ll find the dresses in your closet… 😈
I hope I can make the Women’s Clinic. I really know nothing about formations and all the technical stuff. That would be really useful (and dangerous) knowledge!
Slugger- Get Well Soon!!!
LizK,
Electric shock therapy…
Ouch….
Dresses for DPK…
OUCH!
heheheh
Oh the irony of Colt being on a team promoting a game for BS-You! 🙄 👿 😯
d1- and remember Cooley went to Utah State…
Lucky Princess Leila- flying with Colt!
I’ll repeat my offer from last night:
Anyone want a copy of the 1989 BYU-Hawaii game on DVD (copied from Dim Sum’s VHS tape), email me at:
hoherb at yahoo dot com
Game features Garrett Gabriel and Ty Detmer. “The monkey is off our back!” No charge.
Good afternoon everyone!
I’m not worried about dressing DPK. People have forgotten that he is a master of disguise–although his 5′-10′ Carmen Miranda one needed a little work the other year. 😐
no, lucky Colt flying with the Princess…
#77
Guuud one, Ralph!!!
SteveM…bruddah, you sounding better today! You feeling that way?
Liz…hadn’t heard that one before! What is the shock therapy supposed to do for your shoulders?
Wow! 3 in a row! things must be slow…
Slugger…please start feeling better soon! Gotta shovel that horse poop!
BG — thanks. I think I’m better but no one else agrees 🙁 Gotta see the doc today for my quarterly checkup and scolding. He might have an opinion 😉
I have flashbacks. Is that the same as electric shock therapy?
BG ~ Diana was issued the portable electric shock treatment kit. I’d be more than happy to show you how it works! It’s adjustable to dial up to level 10 (think – electric chair!). Still, level one will make you yell for yo mama.
Has there been anything more on Coach Trap and the Washington coaching vacancy?
Nice article by Ferd on the MWC. Somehow, BSU and MWC are a marriage in the making. Both appear to have quite a bit in common.
Just hope that the WAC, nice guys, don’t wind up finishing last.

Thank you for your post. I retired with 30 years at Kailua High and went to Olomana school for a few years, I thought which went 20 years. I only stayed because I became really interested in Hydroponics and became real good at this..
After a few years, they hired a teacher to take over what I was doing. I was kept to help out the teacher and keep the program out of trouble. I gave my word that I would honor this sdrequest and stay on the program until this teacher retired. He did so last year. That is the reason for my long tenure at Olomana. I am a master with the lower end kids and can work wonders whith them. Because of this, the school kept me on and even now when I can’t get paid, they want me there to help the young teachers. as you know Olomana is a school of rejects from the other windward schools I am from the class of 53 from the old Maui High school
kekoa – I’m in for the shock treatment. Bring it to the t-gate.
oldie…I’ll take you up on that offer…let me know how much…
homey…me, planning a cc?? When??? LOL. I was thinking Wednesday….hmmmm, now to choose a place…

hmmm…shock therapy…brings me visions of “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest”. Better that than the frontal lobotomy!
What?!! “Get back to work”…dang these interruptions! Where’s the “work” filter?
Garret- I guess they sing the best last???
“The Redskins have signed rookie cornerback Kevin Barnes, the team announced on Thursday.
Barnes, a University of Maryland product, was the Redskins’ third-round selection (80th overall) in the 2009 NFL Draft.
With Barnes officially in the fold, the Redskins can turn their attention to signing top draft pick Brian Orakpo and supplemental draft addition Jeremy Jarmon.
Both Orakpo and Jarmon remain unsigned with one week to go to training camp.”

sing=sign
fuud?
Next Wednesday? 🙂
My doctor’s scolding should wear off by then 👿
But he’ll probably tell you to go on a diet.
Liz,
Cleveland has just about completed negotiations with their first-round pick, with rumors that he could sign today. However, they are far off from signing their second round picks…
K-State selling season vb tickets, $50 for season tickets, family pak at $100 for 2 adults and 2 keikis. do we need something like this to fill the SSC for wvb, mvb, and wbb. I know our season tickets cost more with premium seating, but the idea of a family pak for tickets, not just hotdogs, fries and a drink for $18.
Is UH selling season tickets for wvb, mbb and wbb already. Florida is already selling tickets for the regionals in wvb. maybe UH should start all sales early and keep selling up to opening day.
i’ve started reading the online media guides at K-State for wbb and wvb, but i’m not there, so it would be more practical to read UH’s and have something to give me an urge to get excited about the upcoming season but nada. No UH tickets, No UH medial online guides, and JD wonders why no one gets too excited over wbb, mvb and mbb and buys tickets. JD needs a wider window for sales, a lot of us won’t jump up when they finally annouce sales, like I told Rolovich, when I’m ready I’ll buy my fb season tickets or any other game tickets.

Momo. I relate to your service to kids. My late brother did 30 years in San Ramon Unified SD in NoCal and really started alternative choice for kids in the system. He then went on to be head of New teacher training at St Mary’s College, my dad’s and Squirm’n Herman’s alma mater.
For big wave enthusiats, we had a fatality at The Wedge today. I saw 20-30 footers at 3:00 PM and apparantly someone was thrown into the jetty about 1:00. There was several thousand people watching and 5 TV networks all day at the Wedge. This is a Tahiti driven surge with big tides, vs. the normal Mexico Hurricane season storms I grew up with

You could buy your season tickets for WBB & MVB at the Meet the Coaches event at Murphy’s on 7/16. I got my order in for WBB; tickets to be sent out in October. WVB season ticket renewals have been available & I would think new season tickets are also available. Go buy your tickets, Ralph.

There were actually a bunch of guys at last year’s clinic. Most came as “the ride.” They sat in the upper decks. Quite a few were dozing.
Orangecounty.com has some great pics of our high surf. I saw waves 8-10 feet taller than these shown. The biggest i have seen in 40 years. North Shore Winter size.

maybe i’ll show up a little earlier this time.
Hi Piper’s Son!
Sorry for blowing your cover. Maybe the other Tsaikos are slow like me and haven’t figured out who you are.
Oh, but now that I know…
slugger i went online to check the mvb amd wbb season ticket prices and didn’t see anything under tickets except fb. for now, it’s game day or just per game. see what happens. I was thinking out loud about the program, since i look at several schools websites and I see their ads and promotions but not so on the UH site for multiple sports.
Arial is retiring. Who will give out those awards, now?
Hopefully, someone who is not long-winded.
I enjoyed Heather McMackin’s clinic last year, and I hope they would have a continuation of information we learned last year. Hawaii fans, men and women, are very knowledgeable sports fans, so some of the information was stuff my group already knew. We would like the advanced class, please. Also, if there was a way to submit questions and have those answers printed in our handout. There were many ladies who had questions about terminology and strategies.
It was nice to meet Uhfan and Midori7 (I knew them from the pictures posted on this blog) that night. Have not had a chance to make it to any

Okay, back to lurking.
Fantasy football analysis of Bess. One big flaw in this analysis is that Pat White is practicing at QB, not WR.
slugger UH shouldn’t hold a one night event and done to sell mvb and wbb season tickets and try to pick it up later on. should be an ongoing process. Myki and Sj mentioned that the turnout and response was excellent that evening. good job to the Murphy’s and coaches.

chawan_cut,
ESPN showed how it prioritized between UH and BSU…which we already knew by how the WAC TV schedule is this year on ESPN.
SailorBlue I hope you are relaxing and on the mend at home. The doctors at Tripler told me that you insisted on a Navy surgeon to do the repair job. They compromised by sending in a Navy SEAL with a rusty fishing knife to repair the *boat driver* from Annapolis.
Now that ESPN has elected to broadcast the UH-Navy game, the stakes are higher. We should be thinking of a friendly wager between us (for entertainment purposes only, of course).
…which really pi55ed me off!
😆
garret,
yup.
i just fast forwarded thru all the blue turf and their interviews. who cares. they won’t have a dream season like they think they will.
One really nice thing about ESPNU is that it will be in HD on many systems by the time UH plays Navy!

Back to work…for some reason the reviewer who NSF is paying to guide us is unhappy that our technology is useful to the military and might actually save lives. He actually wrote a paragraph that he suggests (insists) we use that *apologizes* for the military application of our communications technology, and he included a pledge that the technology is actually intended for cell phones and we will just put it on defense systems for now until we can get into the cell phone market.
I’m going to point out the civilian uses for our technology (helping rescue people in mine shafts or trapped in rubble or avalanches, law enforcement catching drug smugglers, etc.), but I’m *not* going to apologize if we improve the communications for our soldiers! And I cannot believe that our government paid someone who is telling me (insisting actually) that we do that…
watch out Garret, the reviewer might sell your technology to China to neutralize any benefit to the US military.
