    Sorry for the juvenile humor.


  25. Aaron February 18, 2014 10:38 am

    Gouveia’s. No Question… Redondo’s is good, but Gouveia’s is great.

    My current Portuguese Sausage power rankings:

    1. Gouveia’s
    2. Kukui Sausage
    3. Redondo’s
    4. Mo’ono
    5. Rego’s Purity
    6. Pacific Sausage

    Also, it’s not Portuguese sausage, but Aidells Andouille sausage is excellent.


  26. boolakanaka February 18, 2014 10:39 am

    OK, I’ll give you an easy one: weight watcher’s diet or Waianae diet?

    Chow is going to have to work hard to get Wittek……

    USC quarterback Max Wittek told Orangebloods.com that his visit to Texas “exceeded” his expectations.

    Wittek said he wants to go back to California and talk things over with his family before making any final decisions.

    While Wittek said he wouldn’t say he’s leaning toward Texas, he said he wasn’t sure what his plans were for taking visits to Louisville, Hawaii or TCU (other schools he has listed as being under consideration).

    “Everything about my trip (to Texas) was awesome,” Wittek said. “From the coaches to the players, the school, the campus – it all probably exceeded what I thought it would be.”

    Wittek told said he needed to feel a strong connection to the coaches, and that happened.

    “From the time I got to Austin on Saturday, Coach (Shawn) Watson and I were talking ball,” Wittek said. “A lot of the concepts they are talking about, I ran at Mater Dei (high school).

    “So I already feel comfortable.”

    Wittek said he was impressed by Charlie Strong and felt like Strong was a coach he would want to play for.

    “He looks you in the eye, and you know he’s no nonsense. And I like that,” Wittek said.

    Wittek was hosted by center Dom Espinosa and went to the Texas – West Virginia basketball game. He also went bowling with a bunch of Texas players and felt like the Longhorns had good chemistry.

    “You can tell the players really get along, and you can tell they respect Coach Strong,” Wittek said.

    “I was impressed.”

    C’mon Man !!

    Don’t decide until after you visit Hawai’i !!! (We have beter looking girls here.)


  58. Inyoface February 18, 2014 1:09 pm

    Texas won’t play him, they’ll probably play another McCoy.


  59. Whats up February 18, 2014 1:14 pm

    #9

    Soo true! If Kurt can get the boys on defense to tackle and take better angles to stop the big plays. Then Hawaii defense will get some respect.

    The Podagee-Hawaiian mixture produces good athletes like Kurt Gouveia. You find it in other sports as well like Tony Moniz in surfing. How many Podagee-Hawaiian Rainbows can you name? And you can’t just say last name like “Silva” cuz get choke.

  241. Ipu Man February 18, 2014 6:32 pm

    Ben Jay and Bobby Curran now talking on 1420 about UH sports.
    Sounds like UH should “sue” the state government to return the
    stadium to the UH football team. Wonder if some enterprising lawyer
    can do it as a class action suit because we know the state will never,
    never do it.


  242. old808 February 18, 2014 6:32 pm

    Maybe someone will remember this but there was a popolo running back for Waialua High School who had only one arm. Man he was some running back hardly ever fumbled and was fast. This one has slipped my mind.


  243. old808 February 18, 2014 6:38 pm

    I think his name is Beatty


  244. Stephen Tsai February 18, 2014 7:09 pm

    Gotta ease up on using the names of Big Island ranchers.


  245. Stephen Tsai February 18, 2014 7:10 pm

    old808
    I covered a Nanakuli game, and the QB kept fumbling the ball.
    After the game, I learned he only had one hand.


  246. Stephen Tsai February 18, 2014 7:11 pm

    But after that slow start, that Nanakuli guy was ballin’.
    We came very close to naming him as our athlete of the year.


  247. Truman February 18, 2014 7:15 pm

    #243, That is the way his name was pronounced but I believe the spelling was different. Too long ago but his first name was Bob. He had pretty good size for those days.

  251. al February 18, 2014 7:27 pm

    some of you old guys need to slow down…you guys repeating the ones from earlier today, yesterday, and the like.


  252. Truman February 18, 2014 7:27 pm

    old808, you got me going on the research for that guy’s name as he played just before my time. I found a Bob Batie (which I believe is the correct spelling) on the University of Utah roster as a defensive back which makes sense as he probably would be less of a liability but still take advantage of his skills. He is listed as from Honolulu but I was sure if he came via the military as I don’t think he grew up here.


  253. al February 18, 2014 7:27 pm

    #268, al, you starting to get old if you only can stare at the board and not use em. j/k, I way past that stage.
    Funny, how the comments reflect people’s personalities or interests. Jimmy the lock, we neva meet but your comments are unique at times. They may not be as eloquent as Boola but you expect that from an attorney especially one at Yale :), but yours are very insightful and funny. I do enjoy all the various personalities.

  274. old808 February 18, 2014 8:47 pm

    Yes that’s his name Bob Batie from Waialua High School back in the sixties


  275. old808 February 18, 2014 8:48 pm

    He also ran track. Back then it was the 100 yard dash. I think his time was around 9.5


  276. old808 February 18, 2014 8:52 pm

    Yeah getting old. I’m starting to play music with my lips using my pointer finger going up and down my lips horizontally and trying to remember the song but no such luck….hmmmm


  277. NorthShoreFan February 18, 2014 8:54 pm

    #242…Robert Batie….used to have his arm taped. It was amazing to see him run the ball. Hand offs or pitch outs. He ran with “high” knees. and was very fast. I think he ran track too.
    Truman probably remembers him too.
    We had a 75th reunion for all Waialua High a few years ago and I was able to talk with him and his patnah. The guy looks like he could still run the ball although a bit grey now. He still has that twinkle in his eye and a great big smile. Totally cool dude.


  278. old808 February 18, 2014 8:56 pm

    No Al it was hard boiled eggs but than again it was a long time ago. I wonder if that was why I never acquired the taste for hard boiled eggs but maybe you’re right. It could have been raw eggs and never broke the shell. Good thing it would have been a drippy, sloppy mess.


  279. NorthShoreFan February 18, 2014 8:56 pm

    Anyway getting back to sports, although Arirang could almost be a sports story, I am very happy that Coach Chow added Gouveia to the staff. On the baseball side, I hope Coach Traps keeps Doi in left field and Flores at 1st. I also hope our hitting coach fixes Flore’s swing. Oregon kept throwing breaking pitches at Flores. The coach from Oregon could see his flaw.


  281. old808 February 18, 2014 9:07 pm

    It was the top of the 9th inning against USC and Hawaii was leading by one run with Tatsuno on the mound. There were runners at 1st and 2nd with two out. Tatsuno did the best pick off move to first base. It was like he just flicked his left wrist and caught that runner off guard. End of game.


  282. kev-1 February 18, 2014 9:22 pm

    Wow! Bum my trip. I pull up the Warrior Beat and see 281 posts and thought something big happened that people were commenting on. And then I got to read about 200 “this or that” questions.

    whats in your water?

    10.3 would have been awesome. my bud art isaki ran a 10.5 back in the day to win the ilh meet.

  286. old808 February 18, 2014 10:31 pm

    Lol Al…I think Bob Hayes ran a 9.3 in the 100 yard dash. Back in 1965 it was 100 yard dash and not 100 meter dash. You have to remember that 100 yards is shorter than 100 meters. Most of the 100 yard sprinters were under 10 flat. So back in your day than Art Isaki ran a 100 meter time.


  287. old808 February 18, 2014 10:38 pm

    Al what year did your friend run a 10.5.

    Houston McTear in 1975 set a high school 100 yard dash with a 9 flat time. Bob Batie in 1965 without being able to find the ROIA track and field information, could have run a 9.5 or up to 9.8 but I believe it was closer to 9.5

    320–Fukaya for me. But they always run out early. I usually get a couple boxes to go, on trips back to the mainland, and the flight attendants are always super jealous. Then I pull out the 2nd box, and smiles appear–as do any upgraded seating.
