Kapolei's Lopati commits to UH
Chad Lopati of Kapolei High School has accepted a scholarship offer from the Warriors.
Lopati, who played defensive end at Kapolei, projects as a linebacker in college.
He’s 6 feet 2, and up to 245 pounds now. Kapolei coach Darren Hernandez timed Lopati running 40 yards in 4.6 seconds.
Lopati received offers from every Pac-10 school except USC.
His uncle is Keith “Junior” Lopati, the former UH running back.

Ray Hisatake, the No. 2 right guard, cut off his long hair.
Why?
“Obama said we needed a change,” Hisatake said, smiling.
* * *
Scout Bowl II is today at 8 a.m. The team led by John Estes and Solomon Elimimian is seeking a second victory this fall. What’s the purpose of agreeing to a rematch? “Dominance,” Estes said. Quarterback Jake Santos has a chance for a three-peat. He was the MVP of Scout Bowls this year and last year.

Hey, everybody loves a substitute teacher. Rich Miano’s 48-hour turn as head coach resulted in a short practice yesterday (they were done by 8:20).
* * *
Congrats to Stephen Mata‘utia and Krystal Hovious on the birth of their beautiful daughter.

Happy birthday wishes to Madison “Maddie” Hirata and Rona Chung (of Straub Hospital).
Good Morning Tsaikos and Warrior Nation!
Good news about Chad Lopati! Keep ’em coming!
Good morning everyone from a newbee. great news on Lopati ! Great job by the coaches again…keep it up !
Good Morning Mano1 and welcome to the Warrior Beat. Please continue to post your comments.
Watch out for the vog today.
Did Tyler make the most of his day by day time working out while the team was on the road?
That dang song from “Lolly Lolly get your adverbs here” was going off in my head all night.
Welcome to the Warriors Chad Lopati!
ST, if he’s 245 pounds now with his 4.6 speed, I’m guessing that he’ll eventually be moved to DE in Mac’s speed-oriented D. But the coaches would know best I guess…
WassupDoc,
I’m so sorry to read about your latest incident! I really hope that your injuries heal quickly and that you get some rest.
SDSU is running a big deficit, but if they beat Utah on Saturday they could cost themselves $500k in BCS money. However, I don’t think that they have to worry about losing that money…SDSU’s football team is bad this year.
Good Morning Warrior Nation,
Let’s pull for a 3 game sweep to close the season and get ready for a bowl game.
I found an old online article (12/27/07) explaining the difference between the “Spread” offense and the “Run and Shoot.” In this feature Coach Mack is quoted from a defensive perspective. Pretty good reading.

Everyone have a good Thursday. I think I may get a haircut.
BSU making the BCS would bring some money to SDSU, just like Utah making the BCS would bring some money to UH.
7th?
Good morning Tsai-kos!!
Welcome to the Warrior ohana, Mr. Lopati!
Are the coaches recruiting a punter? Will it be a walk-on and we won’t know till Spring camp?
Questions about other UH sports:
1) Men’s bb team has no seniors. Will they have scholarships available for next year? Will they get back the one they lost due to the low APR? Will one of the current players be awarded the scholarships?
2) Since the Wahine VB team win the WAC every year (and it’s expected to), do they receive something to commemorate the championship every year? If not, why not? If yes, then what do they receive? I don’t ever recall seeing anything about this.
Coaching staff is doing a great with recruiting. Wonderful job by all.
Great Morning All!
Top 10?
Another article about Bess’ and Samson’s new teammate shows how players can make it to the NFL on special teams. Hopefully some of the Warriors on the borderline will make it to the NFL by their contribution to special teams.
Good Morning peoples,
Hope that all is fine and well wherever you are…..and its a Happy Friday for me WOOHOO!! Also, ….Congrats and Welcome Chad!!!, to the WARRIOR Ohana!!
Now we need DB’s and OL. One bruiser RB too =)
Time to bike to work, latas.
I look forward to watching the Princess’ video of the Scout Bowl!
ST & Tsaiko Blog Dogs,
Garret…Huh?? I am confused about post #9.
We need to continue recruiting all of the local blue chippers. Continue emphasizing the advantages of playing at the University in front of family and friends. Don’t give up on anyone, just because they make commitments to mainland schools. Even though the chances are small that these young athletes would change their minds, that’s a chance that we need to take. Never quit on our local kids. We’re all one big family. We want all of the best ball players to stay home, but that won’t happen. We do need to make though sure that staying home is an option. We shouldn’t be dissing these young kids because they don’t have Hawaii as one of their choices. Always leave the door open for them to come back. After all, thay are all really just kids. Support them all the way, no matter what road they take.
Annoddah Dave,
Apparently there is a “sub-coalition” of the non-BCS conferences for revenue-sharing of BCS $
….greaaat news on Lopati….welcome Chad!….
….saw him play here on the big island in the preseason and really enjoyed watching him….i hope though, that they consider keeping him at DE…he reminds me of Veikune…..
Conjunction junction, what’s your function …
OK, I can’t get that song out of my head.
And, this time, if anybody questions his 40 time, they can debate it with Darren Hernandez. And, you know, he kind of scares me.
top 25
JMHO, but I wouldn’t mind seeing others follow Hisatake’s lead in the “change”.
I volunteer for a haircut
Good Luck to the Scouts today.
Have fun, stay injury-free.
d1島:
For some of us, old age takes care of the “change.”
Good Morning Tsaikos!!
More great news this morning. Not to look past this season since we are not pau yet, but I look forward to watching all these local boys playing for Hawaii.
All of the guys who play on special teams won’t be playing in Scout Bowl II.
Will you be out at practice, Stretch? I need someone to reserve a spot for me.
top 30?
Lopati is a good catch; a lot of upside with this athlete, and he seems very well grounded.
GO WARRIORS!
ST – is the Scout Bowl being held on Vidinha Stadium on Kauai??!!?? If not, I am sure that sj & myki will hold you a spot under their favorite tree
Bulla, please tell the beast good luck going down the homestretch. Go Wildcats.
mahalo Pride,
it has been a GREAT RIDE so far, 4 years ago the same team had only 1 win with Coach Graybeal. this season, they are undefeated in conference play and sit atop the Big Sky Conference….planting seeds and watching them develop.
the beast is really enjoying this season, and he has some big shoes to fill but he is ready for the challenge. he still has a few more games to go and move up the Def Stats chart….but he is having an ‘impactful’ season. this winter it’ll be time to train, rest, and continue to develop to be the student-athlete he is destined to be.
GO WILDCATS (X2)
GO WARRIORS
Congrats to the Lopati family 🙂
OK, now I’m convinced that it was either the duo of Carole King/ Neil Sadaka, or Boyce and Hart that wrote those School house Rock songs.
prayers to WD,
whew, slow down….what other signs are you looking for? you need rest and recuperation; UH athletics will survive while you recuperate, and will still be there when you are healthy.
get some r&r!
Master Tsai,
Speaking of “Conjunction Junction” I recently caught the original vocalist Jack Sheldon playing in a local jazz club. He is known for his great trumpet work and at age 77 is still going strong. Next time I catch one of his shows I’ll request that tune for you.
I may get bounced out of the club.
p.s. – He also sang “I’m Just a Bill.”
Pride,
I agree with the emphasis on local recruiting and stressing the value of playing in front of friends and family. The entire state rallied around Warriors last year during the Sugar Bowl run, and every potential recruit in Hawaii lived through that and saw the support in their community and how that season uplifted everyone. Last year was probably the biggest support that the UH football team ever got from Hawaii fans, and it showed the local players what is possible when playing for UH.
This is kind of like how UH got nearly all of the top local players to stay home after JJ’s first season at UH. A *lot* of people seem to have conveniently forgot that happened after the turnaround year.. That recruiting class set the stage for the recruiting class 3-4 years later that set up the Sugar Bowl run.
The key is how Mac is setting up relationships with all of the high schools and how the entire coaching staff is working on recruiting. The camps are also very, very important. All of this is critical for recruiting to be solid every year, so UH can avoid the dips like in some years.
Annoddah Dave,
UH, just like any school in a non-BCS conference, gets money when any non-BCS conference team makes a BCS game. UH should get around $500k if BSU makes a BCS game, and around $150k if Utah (or Ball State) makes it. In a perfect world there would be 2 BCS buster teams this year, which would give UH a really nice financial boost!
Off to work now…I look forward to watching the Princess’ video and hearing about the Scout Bowl from the people that are lucky enough to watch it today.
Top 50???
Good mornign Tsaikos. Another great day in the making and hope that all of you are in good health. Excellent recruiting and it looks brighter every day.
Gooooooooooooooooood Morning Tsaiko Family! With the job Coach Mack and Staff are doing with recruiting on the D side of the ball, I know that the Warrior D will be one of the best in the nation in coming years. I hope we can find some good O prospects too, especially on the line.
Hope everyone has a great day !
Welcome to the blog, mano1! (are you in Hawaii or “anoddah” island”?)
Welcome to the team, Chad Lopati!
Aloha Kakahiaka, Everyone!

Morning, Tsaiko-Nation and Tsai-Meister.
Off to Jacksonville to see my kids for 5 days. Hope my daughter has internet already, she just moved into a new house.
The recruiting is becoming very exciting, Miami of the Pacific in a couple of years, baby.
Play nice, everybody. Aloooha.
Morning Tsaikos.
Sounds like the recruiting plan by the coaches is working.
have a great day, don’t breath too much vog.
top of the morning all tsaiko kanes and wahines. sun out and looking good so far.

Aloha and good morning everyone…
Hope WassupDoc is resting up and healing well… as well as DrDoc.
Looks like we still need a solid guard and a punter.
Anybody know if the UH coaches are even looking at JC Travis Nua?
50!
Can’t believe we are spinning our wheels around recruiting as a heavy topic this early in the season. It’s a pretty good feeling. The coaches are taking advantage of the good feedback that the Warriors got last season and riding the JJ and Posse departure storm well.
MIH,
Punter Schmunter, just score every possession!
Anybody going to be at the Scout Bowl this AM… 8:30?
las vegas,
Yeah.. but we’ll need somebody to go out there and pretend whenever we gotta fake one whenr the third team goes out in the 4th quarter.
Garret – that’s really interesting about non-BCS schools. I guess it pays to cheer them on so UH can get a little $$. I learned something today!
great morning all
wow, we could actually be done w/ recruiting in a couple weeks. great addition w/ lopati, hope and pray that the safety kid coach mack was talkin about is mckay from LBP, enhances our chances of keeping his 2 teammates. we got a lot of LB types in the fold, who moves to DE. coach cal must be salivating
I am so happy that we are becoming a Polynesian dominated operation, as well it should be, as we sit in the middle of that ethnic group. I read on another message board a disparaging note with regard to the fact that so many of Polynesian ancestry are on this team. Foolish remark!
These young men have proven to be excellent players, hard hitting, spirited team members. If the Warriors can be that team that fields the best of Polynesia, all the better. I’m sure when that happens, the NFL scouts will flock to the UH games as they too know, that Polynesians come to play!
I swear, last season, after the bowl was over.. what kept us all pumped up till spring practice were the recruiting announcements… now what are we gonna do when the Sheraton-Hawaii Bowl ends? Talk Boise-to-boys?
from Jan to LOI and spring camp, we can revel in the success of our BB team (hopefully) 🙂
takoboy,
You’re saying that we’ll have all that “Flem” coming out of our mouths?
Just got back from I-Hop for breakfast…..have a wonderful day Tsaiko’s, from Texas to you’al.

IHOP isn’t any worse than our H1 Inter-State freeway, I suppose.
Is alcohol going to be sold at that late night basketball game on Monday Night?
Last year’s basketball team showed promise, this year’s will be nail-biting, I bet.
Sort of like football… you’ll wonder which team will show up.
Good morning Tsaikos….
Have to do another Esme today…hope everyone has a good day…
Great news about Lopati…good to hear stories about local boys staying home….
As homey would say…HI JOJO!!!
woosh and out…
Oh, one more thing, thanks Maverick…now I have that song stuck in my head…”Lolly, Lolly, Lolly get your adverbs here, Lolly, Lolly, Lolly get your adverbs here……”
I also have that phrase, “Grab your powder, grab your gun report to General Washington….” from The Shot Heard ‘Round the World….
Good morning from Warrior Central where the Scout Bowl has been in progress for 20 minutes now. Lots of action on the field with the white team trying to dominate a very spirited Green machine that has made 2 key interceptions already running the 1st one back for a TD!
On a sour note, the blue bird of happiness found sj’s coffee cup a very inviting target…SPLAT!
I didn’t know it tasted sour, but I’ll take your word for it.
Good Morning Tsaiko Nation!
Thanks for the update Kekoa! Wish I could be there.
sj – Gotta protect the goods! 😳
Wow Stretch doesn’t have to do marketing today! 😯 Too bad for ST, good thing other Tsaikos got his back. Don’t work too hard Stretch!
Thanks James for putting the Lolly song in my head! 👿
Gotta do an Esme and a (J)J…..whoooooosh!
Princess leila’s video will show how well Shane Austin has guided White Knights. Now it’s Jake Santos turn to shine.
ST & RK are prowling the sidelines looking real ‘sporty!’
WDoc….owwww! I just went back and read yesterday’s adventures.
Get well soon, and READ A BOOK, gunfunnit! Sit for awhile- watch a good movie.
Congrats on the new keiki, Stephen and Crystal!
Kekoa- thanks for the update!
Kekoa,
Good to see you made it. Hope your pops is enjoying the game.
Maybe that bluebird was just trying to show the scout team QB how to throw a pass.
Good morning Tsaikos!
I had to google School House Rocks. Pretty cool stuff. I wish there was a modern version. Besides Sesame Street, SuperWhy & Sid the Science Kid, I won’t allow my kids to watch anything else.
Except for football, of course. We can watch football all day. My 2 yr old even recognizes some of the players! She loves yelling “Go Funaki!”. I guess there’s a ring to it..
Go Warriors!
mih…more like a bomb.
Jay..
Hmmm… maybe whenever they throw a long one.. we as fans should all stand and say..
Mauna Kukai.. auwe! (away)
The missus got mad when the kids watched/listened to “Interjections” and I would playfully use a not so appropriate “mad” interjection. (so when you’re happy-hooray!, or sad – awww! or frightened – eeek! or mad – rats!) Kids thought it was funny. The wife didn’t. I countered that it WAS the correct use of an interjection. 🙂 I knew I did bad when the kids sang the F word instead of “Rats”. Who says “Rats!” nowdays anyway?
Welcome Chad. I love these huge linebackers.
Kevin – LM@O!
Welcome to The Warrior Beat! Have you posted before? Do you reside on the Islands? Keep on posting.

Eh! Wea Homey stay!
Jail?
Pride. – #17, hmmm that post sounds sooooo familiar. 😉
re: Lopati
Saw him play against Farrington and I must say for the times that he was in there (Not sure if they limited his reps due to his knee injury) he dominated the person(s) that tried to block him. Very quick and explosive and showed signs of relentlessness. Awesome pickup for the Warriors. BTW, Hasiak looked good too and wish him the best on the continent.
Good morning!
GO WARRIORS
A-Joe – WOT! stereotyping me again??? wait…I was in jail.
homey,
GO TO JAIL…DO NOT PASS GO!
Getting spoiled already…WHERE’S THE VIDEO!!!
Hi Faye and PL!!!!
Hello women of the blog! any one of you have contact lens that make your eyes blue or green?
Oh Shucks! 😯
homey,
Was it too much Monopoly Beer?
d1 – Are you talking about (J)J?
d1 – not the Monopoly Beer, it was the the attempt to bribe with Monopoly money.
homey,
Depends what route you take or where he last parked his car!
Was Junior Lopati the one who had his knee hurt on the cheap shot as he was crossing the goal line?
LO-PATI!!! LO-PATI!!! LO-PATI!!! LO-PATI!!! LO-PATI!!! LO-PATI!!! LO-PATI!!! LO-PATI!!!
People, is it just me or am I correct that it seems like we’re recruiting mostly defensive players. Is it because we have a defensive minded coach? Where’s the factory of offensive linemen that we used to have under June Jones? Where’s the speedy slotbacks and recievers we used to have also? Coach Mack wants to run the run and shoot still and that’s good. But it remains to be seen if the players he recruits can execute it as efficiently and the coaches he has now can teach it as proficiently as players and coaches we’ve had running it before. 300 yards a game passing was a piece of cake under Jones. Scoring 28 pts. per game was considered being held to 28 pts. I hope we can get back to those explosive offensive performances that we’re so used to seeing to go along with coach Mack’s awesome defensive schemes. We need good offensive recruits too to make this happen!
Colored contacts…
Wouldn’t it be a sight to see if someone has a green contact in one eye and a white contact in the other for the Cincy home game????
Just thinking to myself.. hehehehehehehe
Happy Birthday Rona!!!
And belated happy birthday to Maddie
Congrats to Stephen and Krystal on your baby. Now the work begins.
whoa, wena makes an appearance
Someone hit Kazz…he’s stuttering again….
Darren Hernandez looks like Suge knight
Good morning everyone!
Usual work day for me. Great news about Lopati…and why does “homey” this morning remind me of some one else? 😆
d1 – not sure if it was him. I wanted to see a replay of the game but OC16 doesn’t have the video listed yet.
delbull – I guess the reason for D players being recruited is because the Warriors are losing many on the D side after this season. As far as O recruits there are some redshirts waiting in the wings and the current wideouts are still young. I’d still like to see a speedy RB get recruited and a few more O-linemen.
delbull…you’re right. I think we have had some good recruits on offense as well. We also have a number of greyshirts that were good offensive prospects. IMHO, you are right though in that we need to balance recruiting at the moment.
Delbull,
It does seem like that, but we’ve got guys like Mike Tinoco, Dustin Blount, Ryan Henry redshirting this season and ready to go next year. Not to mention Jovonte Taylor who should be able to return next year. Malcolm Lane and Greg Salas will be back and so will Pilares. Not to mention the likes of Billy Ray Stutzmann and Deondre Powell coming aboard.
We lose almost our entire defense next season as part of the largest senior class in recent memory, if not ever at 35 I think. Coach Mack said the 2009 season would be his biggest concern and he and his staff are taking care of this.
Also Rolo is doing some work out in Cali and he’ll be sure to find some gems there.
With the kind of success Mack has done with recruiting thus far I have the utmost confidence that this coaching staff will do everything they can to keep the cupboard full for years to come.
I can’t say much about the o-linemen coming in or those UH is talking to as I only know the potential recruits people mention on here and some of them slip my mind after a while which is NO disrespect to those kids as it just shows my limited memory 🙁 .
Kazz – it would be you to wear contacts like that! I mean you already to the tattoo thing so why not the green and white contacts!
SteveM – and who would I be reminding you of??? a sober koakane?
tapping,tapping, waiting for PL’s videos…
oh, Hiya!
James,
I was stuttering yesterday at Sports Authority. There is a bunch of new Under Armour gym gear there as well as some new UH stuff I never saw before, including about 2 new hat designs I haven’t seen at the Rainbowtique… plus there are A LOT of #6 home and away jerseys there for 64.99 which seems cheaper than the Rainbowtique’s 65.00 but the Rainbowtique does not add sales tax, but Sports Authority does of course.
Plus new cross trainer UA shoes… oh man I had to leave before I send myself further into credit card debt!
isn’t that an oxymoron?? hahahaha
Kazz – are you related to Kelli?? You two must have everything UA makes
I also agree with homey that we need to beef up our O-Line….
Addahknowsports- I just ordered a bunch of fishing stuff from Cabelas… temporary insanity…
homey — without running the IP trace, I can never tell if it is you, you pretending to be you, or someone else…. 😕
MLiz – Patience!
Stretch – come to think of it, yes that is an oxymoron!
Kazz- have you seen any green UH car flags?
Exclusive rights to all our leftovers at the Tsaiko T-gates. Nah…Nah…jez kidding! That is a good question. What would you suggest? We can put it to a vote and get it done like we did the Softball team. You want to take the lead on this one? You got Homes ready to spin the Wheel of Fortune. He’s worth millions in Monopoly money!
Hi m-homey!
Homey,
I decided on the tattoo finally and it will be on my left thigh. It will be the same exact tapa band on the previous Nike uniforms.
I think they’ll quote me at 350.00. I’ve always gone to T&T Tattoo in Aiea for all my others as I’m just used to them.
I could do it now, but I have other more pressing issues to deal with first.
I need call about the contacts though as I do not need prescription glasses or anything so I don’t know this is going to work.
I saw a lot at the Manoa Bookstore recently, but I haven’t been to the Ward Rainbowtique in about a month so I can go check.
How many were you looking for?
SteveM – check your website, I just visited…
…pretending to be me??? what the heck?
(J)J – what about a RB? Do you think the Warriors need a speedy one or another big one like Heun?
I agree with (Jesse) James who agrees with Homey that we need to beef up our O-Line.
Kazz – $350!!! Kinda out of your way but if can, give Ron a call at 808 Tattoo and set up an appt for a quote…(stay in Kaneohe)
I agree with homey’s questions to (J)J. what about a RB? Do you think the Warriors need a speedy one or another big one like Heun?
ST ~ BTW…What’s the inside scoops on the shoulder rolls certain QB’s had to ‘demonstrate’ to Coach Rollo during the WB?
Kazz-
I agree with your tattoo selection design and placement. I agree with homey, give Ron a call at 808 Tattoo and set up an appt for a quote…(stay in Kaneohe)
CHAD LOPATI:
WELCOME TO THE WARRIOR FAMILY!!!
BEST WISHES FOR A MOST SUCCESSFUL CARRER!!!
I agree with Kekoa’s inquiry: What is the inside scoops on the shoulder rolls certain QB’s had to ‘demonstrate’ to Coach Rollo during the WB?
I agree with A-Joe, who agrees with (Jesse) James, who agrees with Homey, who agrees with Delbull about what now???
Homey and A-Joe,
Mahalo for the referral. I’ll give them a call when I can.
350.00 is high.
Kazz – If worse comes to worse just get some needles and ink and me and A-Joe can poke the design on you! 😆
No way I can own everything they get. Now unless I have the build of one of their mannequins THEN I will attempt to buy everything they make, but for now, I’ll get my fill on the “loose” cut stuff… 🙁
I mean seriously… their compression fit stuff feels good and all but I would have to be caught dead wearing them in public. 🙁
I think someone slipped A-Joe a tonic.
If Stretch can wear it in public, so can you!
Kekoa – need more info, like who to contact, does a VB booster club exist, etc. How did you guys decide on the bracelets for the softball team?
Pomai – help!!! Hey where is Pomai this week?
Only if you use da charcoal and da stick wit da shark tooth!
ahhhhh, felt good pretending to be me…
Re: VBall team awards
I think they receive pendants for winning the WAC championship. All awards for each sport are paid by the booster clubs if the team has one and can afford it.
jm#### – the old ladies that sit at the games and hold the signs are the VB booster club.
oops, I humbly apologize…I meant to say the Aunties that sit at the games…
I shall now smoo myself for an hour.
RE: Team Awards.
What ruffled the “feathers” of a lot of people about the lack of any kind of gift to the softball players was the fact that the Wahine Softball program doesn’t have the kind of booster club funds Na Koa, men’s basketball, and women’s volleyball has.
Now no can help this kind, but what got me irritated was that the NCAA does not allocate funds for gifts to players. While it is not a necessity it would be a nice gesture. I guess the NCAA no mo “aloha”.
I do remember a story about how the Wahine Soccer team was not able to fund summer school for their players because they were given bracelets or pendants to celebrate last season WAC title.. Or was it the other way around? I can’t remember.
I also someone at UHAD saying that there is no “general fund” set up to gather the money necessary to reward players with individual gifts following a championship season.
http://www.honoluluadvertiser.com/article/20081113/BREAKING02/81113051
congrats to Kevin Hashiro for being picked up by UH for the Wahine bball director of operations job. still can’t believe that KKEA let him go after all those years broadcasting their games.
still don’t know what to think about Bolla’s wife being hired.
Kazz- I just want 1 green car flag to go along with my white one. Someday I’ll be able to get Redskins flags to fly on Sundays too!
[…] Kapolei’s Lopati commits to UH […]
spammer?
HEY! What goes around comes around! Good for Kevin Hashiro!!!
however… as far as this goes:
… I’ll reserve my comments for now.
Congrats to Kevin Hashiro!
…..(crickets)
So where is J-E-T-S HQ this afternoon?
Kazz,
where you going be for tomorrow night’s game?
Bolla’s wife might be a tad bit better at coaching BB than him.

Hi jojo!
How did joje fare at Kapalama Heights this past Saturday? Was it the written or oral test? I remember my son taking it last year and having to juggle the tests with football.
good luck to joje.
Coltwatch:
http://theredskinsblog.com/2008/11/13/i-wish-i-got-austrian-tv/#more-2544
:When Settele approached Chris Cooley, he explained patiently that this was for Austria, not Australia, and laughed to show that he was just kidding. No one else laughed, although Colt Brennan happily took him through the Austria/Australia bit from Dumb and Dumber, which Settele found amusing.: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0109686/quotes
so the cincy game is a green and white game. if you are on the northern “hemisphere” of the aloha stadium you wear green and the southern “hemisphere” is white.
as luck would have it, i am in the white without a white shirt. the son said we spray paint our bodies white and have a “u” and an “h” emblazoned across our chests.
right.
clear crisp video- thanks leila

Chawan,
I was trying to see who I can get to come with me for tomorrow’s game but looks like none of my friends can make it so I WAS going to check out the Punahou vs St. Louis game at the stadium, BUT I am leaning to go to the Bows basketball game tomorrow again.
So looks like it will just be me going and I have no clue where I will be sitting at this point.
kazz,
you can sit by us behind the basket. jason should be there somewhere too. even though they’re trying, i don’t think there’ll be a huge student showing for these games.
al – I agree, can you imagine the cost of the paint just for you??!!??
Sounds good. Tip off is still 7:35 right?
Hi Hawaiianbod!
Joje had the written test. She had to skip tennis that day, but went to soccer first. They had the best record for the season, 1 loss! Go Scarlett Fever!!!
I’m in the same predicament as Al. The only white I wear nowadays are napkins… 🙁
I’m craving spam for some reason….
Oh yeah…
HI (Jesse) James!
Someone on the UH staff needs to go and look into Joe Montana’s boy.
-Decent size.
-Good mechanics
-Good arm
-Reads defenses well.
-Quick learner
Transferred from De La Salle to Oaks Christian. Had two months to pick up the offense. Led OC to a dominating 9-0 season so far.

kazz, yup. i might get there early to watch the 2nd half of the other game.
I’m eating a Hawaiian Plate from Ige’s in Halawa right now…and for some reason they gave me an extra lomi salmon
just had some spam musubis from Yuki’s Wagon. mmmmm.
great work on the videos Princess.
I hope al doesn’t have the “H” painted on him or else a helicopter might land on him.
Calvin,
I think they recognized you from a karaoke video…
Addahknowjoe/homey
I think a quick back would be good. More like a Pilares in quickness and agility but a little more size.
Heun is a good back (from what I’ve seen). He’s big, has the power running game, and is speedy (remember in the Spring game when he caught the DB who picked off TG…I was like, “Whoa look at that lineman run. He is quick.”…but it was Heun).
Kazz – Actually CfK reminds me of the Jack in the Box commercial where this guy and Jack are playing racquetball and the guy that gets hit in the back and starts making like a chicken…yeah, reminds me of CfK.
Great to see the high sprited action from the Scout Bowl II. Now that it’s even up, perhaps one more grudge match would be in order prior to the Hawaii Bowl! 😉
I like the big power running slasher that can juke defenders and make them miss. Like that number 12 on the team.
(J)J – By speedy RB I mean one that can run away and separate from the defense. No dissing Libre, but do you recall Libre had some open field runs and he couldn’t outrun the defenders?
bwack..bwack…bwack
homey,
Like you say, no dissing, but was wondering why he tried to juke a defender who appeared to be behind him in the last game?
CfK,
Extra lomi is good for you but don’t even let me hear about you getting one extra piece haupia!
AnnoddahDave: Mahalo much for the UH towel! It looks wunnerfull in my ka’a.
Good news about Lopati! E komo mai, guy!
Happy berfdays to all of the berfday chilluns out dere!
Esme & whoossshhhh…
uhh…no comment.
Homey…I agree about the speed back. Again, I think someone with Pilares’ quickness and agility with a 4.4 speed would be a nice complement to Heun’s power game.
Addahknowjoe – That’s Montana’s number 2 boy right? I think his eldest is currently a freshman QB at ND. He’s supposed to be awesome!!!
homey…love that commercial. BTW, CfK backwards is KFC….LOL
Pilares looked pretty natural as a slot last week.
MIH,
sorry bout not responding to ur comment bout IHOP….just got back on, and now that I have, geeezz, am lost for words….bwaaaaahahaha!!
now I go from Jack’s chicken guy to fried chicken?
open parenthesis Jesse close parenthesis James,
I like Heun/Rego as our big backs.
I think we still need our quick small back. Maybe 2 if Pilares stays at slot.
Just saying…
I agree. I think Pilares is better suited at slot, although he is an awesome back…..
Don’t forget about my chicken selects. Better than Jack’s one.
D1 Keith Jr Lopati was the one that got tackled as he was crossing the goal line right at the knees that pretty much ended his football career. I remember that they had to use a kevlar-like material called Goretex (cutting edge technology at the time) to replaced damaged ligaments, he never regained his awesome cutting ability. He was a load to bring down. It was a home game against SDSU, he had already scored, there was no need to hit him at the knee no less, it was a big time cheapshot IMO. I recall he was a big time recruit from Utah that had a lot of famly here. Watching him run with the ball was a beautiful thing…
A-Joe. Interesting that Nick Montana plays on the same team as Trevor Gretzky!
Kaimuki Kid,
Thanks. I wasn’t quite sure but, you are right, it certainly was impressive watching him prior to that.
…btw, if you can recall that play, methinks you are hardly a “kid” 😉
heheheh
Was at that game and Ref didn’t even throw a flag. The tackle was so unecessary, what a waste, he would have played at the next level…
umnn.. so which team won the scout bowl?
Huh? did you guys know that Na Koa was advertising for a Director or Developement/Athletics?
http://www.uhf.hawaii.edu/employment/about-dirdevath.asp
Any takers?
Adam Leonard’s team. Shane Austin scored the winning TD in OT.
LizK,
Oh, I think all they have is the white car flags… I haven’t seen green ones. I can check tomorrow at the SSC though.
Kazz,
I’m going to the basketball game. I believe the twins are coming too.
A-Joe ~ So if we picked up Will Smith’s kid, Gretsky, and Montana…they would start calling UH…University of Hollywood.
Seriously tho…Nick Montana rarely played the 2nd half, and when he did it was for only a few snaps. Yet this kid is rolling up the numbers just like whatshisname did…MSLiz help me out with the name!
no one rolls numbers like I do. 4 billion hamburgers a day.
Thanks, Kazz!
I didn’t know there was such a thing as green flags until I saw Kymry’s pix from the OSU game! They are amazing fans- rent a white car, add the UH LARGE magnetic signs, green flags – and Ride with Pride!
Now those are Road Warriors!
Hey Mr. Mcdo (filipino version) how come you have spaghetti and fried chicken in the Philippine stores and not US? I’m sure it will do well here.
Is Stanford really a good fit for Nick Montana?
mctruck…
about you not responding for 5 hours.. I just figured that as the time zone differential.
whoa stevem……

I’m in the same predicament as Al. The only white I wear nowadays are napkins…
okay as long as you not talking sanitary kine.
Hmm… now we have both Mr and Mrs Bolla as Wahine Basketball Coaches? Interesting.
AL….Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Welcome to Warrior Nation Chad Lopati…
I can see our Defense getting back to being the hardest hitting team and most feared defense in the nation! Another great addition to an already good looking bunch of recruits for the defense. Potentially these incoming guys plus the redshirts and JC’s could put together an explosive, hard nosed, bone-shattering defense for years!
okay, stretch…..i get one whole gallon of ultra white exterior premium paint just for you. then we paint across your chest these words for you to torment the cinci coaches.
in the front: “cinci pussycats”
in the back; “meow”
just tell the uh admisnistrator that it is not one violation because it is your game day apparel.
Happy Birthday to my bruddah Pauoa Boy!
pauoa…..now if only we can land that certain running back. that would be the charm.
madeinhawaii,
The Texas fans have had this “problem” for years now. You should know that once 2009 recruiting ended (which was before the season began) that the 2010 recruiting talk started! I think that there are several 2010 offers out already and some 2010 commits have been made already to teams around the country. Plus, there is Spring Practice to talk about.
Happy Birthday Pauoa Boy!
so is this mata’utia also related to that same family out in the campbell hs areas or the waipahu running back?????
Kazz,
I thought that Joe Avery scored the winning TD? I think that Shane Austin threw the pass to get his first Scout Bowl win.
al,
I hope so to, his last couple games have been ONION, watching him terrorize defenses just like make you cry! The last game I watched he went for 184 yds TD, previous game he ran for 300+ 4TD, game before that he had like 150+ 3TD…this kid is mean. Anybody who pick him up going have the next Barry Sanders/Reggie Bush garrans.
pboy…..its you birthday????
have a good one bro and throw down a few for me!
This is not my idea of ideal halftime entertainment for the Super Bowl. I do not think that he’s on the same level as many other halftime entertainers!
Aiyah frikkin bruddah sneak attack my computer dayum buggah…
Anyway, al #214 was me…Pauoa Boy
Al — all my white shirts look like napkins 🙄
Hey, I’m a dependable kine of guy…
mih and garret…..
no jump to conclusions too fast. we still gotta hold ass until those loi’s are signed, sealed, delivered.
and who knows, maybe we catch one last minute “100 lb ulua” before the closing period. somebody might change their mind yah.
i mean our starting quarterback was the last guy we recruited on the eve of the loi date last year. that was one big fish.
al,
Yups today is…I threw down planny last night actually at the Marine Corps Ball. Felt like Hank the Tank! Love the feeling though of being double fisted with drinks all night and not paying a dime. Needless to say it has been a long morning so I actually going celebrate this weekend.
Hey Jay – in Spain, you can cerveza (beer) at Mickey D’s!!! 😀
Happy Birthday PB!
Al – I agree with (J)J – ewwwwwwwwww!
I use my shirts as napkins. That’s why I always get extra shirt
pauoa…..no worry i caught that one. but, i wasn’t going to make shame for your bruddah.
hahahahaha.
….and stevem. napkins? more like tablecloths eh??!!
jm2375 and (j)j……..ewww?
at least i talking about the clean kine and not used ones.
its stevem’s fault he opened pandora’s box, not me. i am just chiming in.
oops… you can buy beer… 😳
Maybe Chad Lopati can convince Stan Hasiak for stay home and play for the Warriors too! Anyway, whoever said Coach Hernandez look like Suge Knight that was pretty funny, he do look intimidating…
Happy Birthday Pauoa Boy!
Glad to hear you celebrated well with your fellow Marines.
Howzit Aunty Rob25,
Yups was good fun, eventhough I getting old I had to show my young bucks how for cut-a-rug and boogie on down hahaha…
Thirty years ago Mickey Dees opened their first store in Germany. No surprise that they served beer & wine. However, I complained about Saimin not being available. When I got that cold German stare…I decided to finish eating my Big Mac and Shutup!
ST, How about a pic of Hisatake with his do?
Happy birthday PB
Happy birthday Marine
Happy birthday Pauoa Boy
Happy birthday to you!
All this talk about needing o-line, o-line, o-line recruits may be overrated for this class. If people take time to look on the roster, we got some young big linemen buried on the depth chart. Austin Hansen, Adrian Thomas, Tui Tuiasosopo, etc. Next year’s battles for o-line spots should be interesting. I think Letuli and Estes (if he stays for senior season) are the only shoe-ins for starting
Mahalos for the B-Day wishes Gang…
PB,
anything new on the RB you got your eye on?
Kazz, since you want a tat with a traditional print, try getting it the traditional way.
Just Saying,
To me Estes needs to stay his Senior season to improve his draft stock more. He’s a very good lineman no doubt and will get drafted somewhere but I think if he plays another year it will help him. He still has parts of his game he needs to improve on to be dominant like Samson Satele!
Pauoa Boy,
I agree about Estes needing to stay. I believe Samson had the same decision before 2006, and look what staying did for his draft stock. A solid 2nd round draft pick!
J-Dog,
Besides him dominating his last couple games not much else. They are getting ready for CIF playoffs. Latest word is that he still is undecided and has many offers, hasn’t narrowed his choices down as he is focusing on finishing the season strong and winning the championship this year. Dad although and ASU alum has left the decision making up to him. Coach says he should be narrowing his choices soon per email, but UCLA, SDSU, Georgia Tech, Fresno St., New Mexico, and UNLV have been pushing hard to get him. Sources say he will probably choose a PAC-10 school and they say UCLA. I say not cause Hilliard is heading there. Anyway, this kid is frikkin bad arse already built for the college game. He may seem small, but this kid reminds of Barry Sanders, fast, strong, and very elusive! He is 5’9″ 210lbs. Runs consistent 4.3 40s and 10.7 100yd. last time he was clocked.
Kekoa…
McDs don’t serve Saimin in Japan either.. nor Ramen… not even rice at breakfast… is that NOT Japanese or what?
Garret…
Will be nice to have that kind of Texas recruiting problem for a change, eh? We can all drool over what the starting line up will be like and who the back ups will be …and what players will have an impact in the year to follow next.
Awryte J-E-T-S lookin’ pretty good…
24-13, half.
SJSU rookie and former Warrior nemesis, Nick Lowery burned late in the half by Jabar Gaffney on a fade route for NE’s only TD.
Aikoholoholonau…
Happy Birthday Pauoa Boy!
Thanks Aunty Ronnie…
Is the Call The Coach stuff on Monday’s or Tuesday’s?
Happy Birthday PB!
Happy birthday Pauoa Boy!
Yeah, John Estes needs to stay. Interior linemen do not go early.
Great video, Princess Leila! Wow, it’s so great to have you back.
Which reminds me, I ran into the better-looking Tsai today. I just so happened to be looking at Mike’s bike and thinking about him when he showed up. 😛
I really like Lopati, glad to hear he’ll be a Warrior.
* * *
In non-football news, if you haven’t already done so, I recommend you read the article in today’s Advertiser about UH’s new Master’s in Financial Engineering degree. When I was on my trip this summer, I was telling my friend Kim that UH needs to get more involved in biological and financial mathematics — UH has been working on developing a two-semester 300-level sequence in mathematical modeling with an emphasis on biology. So now we needed something in financial mathematics to develop. Then she told me about UH’s new financial engineering program. I was shocked — and giddy — upon hearing this news. I’m glad to see this program get its due publicity.
Happy Birthday Pauoa Boy!
Liz – are you going to the Cincy game?
Happy Birthday Pauoa Boy..
Duffer.
Call the coach is Tuesday evenings… Mondays are the Na Koa lunch at the same place.. different time.
duffer,
Na Koa is lunch time on Monday. Get film review by one coach.
Call the Coach is dinner time on Tuesday. Get BC telling evrybody fo’ “light it up”!
Thanks! What time is lunch? It’s at the Willows?
Pats tie the j-e-t-s, 24-24, 10:31, 4th.
The Nakoa lunch is between 11 and 1:00 …$15.00 buffet…
Hmmm No meeting till Nov 24th though.. no game this weekend so no lunch, it seems.
http://www.nakoa.org/pdf/2008_Meeting_Schedule.pdf
The link above is for their schedule
In addition to the Scout game.. I wanna see Bryan Clay challenge the Warriors to a mini pentatholon. Some kind of charitable event would be great.
Thanks for the B-Day wishes gang, sorry had to step away and stuff my face with ice-cream cake…buggah is onolicious!
Princess Leila,
Much Mahalos for the videos, really enjoy them as the players get a chance to let loose on camera. Just hope Adam and the rest of the boys win out and go to the Hawaii Bowl and kick whoever’s arse wants to play us, so he can really say “WE GOT YOU SUCKA!!!”
mih
OK! Mahalo! No lunch on Monday! 😡
J-E-t-s tried tackle eligible to Wayne Hunter on 2nd and goal. Penalty. 1st and goal @ 3, under 3:00 left
J-E-T-S score. 31-24, 3:10 left in game. (sorry on time error earlier)
Maybe the Pats D is “old and slow”
I want ice cream cake. *tsigh* I never got the ice cream cake I wanted when I was a kid.
jm2375 I believe that JD made the statement after the softball award screw up that the athletic dept. will find the $$ for all future awards for any team winning the WAC.
Pomai . . .
That would be awesome. It is not necessarily a bad thing when the community gets involved. But, it is a bad and sad thing when the university seemingly does not even try.
What does a “prevent Defense” do?
Cassell to Moss, TD. 0:01 left. Under review.
Confirmed.
Tied. 🙄
I apologize for the length of this next post — I found it interesting because I hear and see these on nearly a daily basis at school.

Oxford Compiles List of Top 10 Irritating Phrases
The Telegraph (UK)
Oxford compiles list of top ten irritating phrases
A top 10 of irritating expressions has been compiled by researchers at Oxford University
By Charlotte Bailey
Last Updated: 3:18PM GMT 08 Nov 2008
Heading the list was the expression ‘at the end of the day’, which was followed in second place by the phrase ‘fairly unique’.
The tautological statement “I personally” made third place – an expression that BBC Radio 4 presenter John Humphreys has described as “the linguistic equivalent of having chips with rice.”
Also making the top 10 is the grammatically incorrect “shouldn’t of”, instead of “shouldn’t have”.
The phrases appear in a book called Damp Squid, named after the mistake of confusing a squid with a squib, a type of firework.
The researchers who compiled the list monitor the use of phrases in a database called the Oxford University Corpus, which comprises books, papers, magazines, broadcast, the internet and other sources.
The database alerts them to new words and phrases and can tell them which expressions are disappearing. It also shows how words are being misused.
As well as the above expressions, the book’s author Jeremy Butterfield says that many annoyingly over-used expressions actually began as office lingo, such as 24/7 and “synergy”.
Other phrases to irritate people are “literally” and “ironically”, when they are used out of context.
Mr Butterfield said: “We grow tired of anything that is repeated too often – an anecdote, a joke, a mannerism – and the same seems to happen with some language.”
The top ten most irritating phrases:
1 – At the end of the day
2 – Fairly unique
3 – I personally
4 – At this moment in time
5 – With all due respect
6 – Absolutely
7 – It’s a nightmare
8 – Shouldn’t of
9 – 24/7
10 – It’s not rocket science
d1 . . .
Was that a trick question? If your team employs a prevent defense all it will do is prevent your team from winning.
With all due respect to those actually coaching, I personally believe that the prevent defense should absolutely be abolished. It’s not rocket science; at the end of the day, you lose! 😛
D1,
I’m sure The Hokies can answer that question as they got schooled on it against Boston College last season. . . . 🙄
Wafan,
Sorry man.. but I gotta say..
IMHO…
That top ten most irritating phrases post is something that you shouldn’t of posted. I personally think, with all due respect, that it is absolutely not fairly unique at all. It’s not rocket science to know that at this moment in time with our minds on football 24/7, at the end of the day you will realize that you really shouldn’t of posted it at all.
mih and jason . . .
Bwah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! I was working on something that included all of those items in a coherent paragraph. But, you beat me to it. Here is my submission.
===
Actually, at the end of the day, I discourage the use of these phrases. I personally and absolutely agree, at this moment in time, it’s a nightmare. But, since these ubiquitous terms are seemingly used 24/7, and are not fairly unique, they shouldn’t of been used in any scholarly paper.
With all due respect, it’s not rocket science.
The funniest one I heard from a kid was about how hard he works at school 24/7 Monday through Friday.
Huh?
J-E-T-S win in OT, 34-31.
aikaukaunau….
With all due respect, while I didn’t use them all, at least my little write-up is fairly unique in that I talked about the topic at hand.
“When all is said and done.”
Maybe that is why unko Herman was not liked?
Wow! Jason drops the sledge hammer.
Bwah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Prevent defenses are geared almost exclusively towards stopping an extremely long pass. They are frequently used in obvious passing situations, such as a third-and-very-long situation, or to prevent a long score on the last play of a half, or when the defense believes that the offense must pass (for example, if the offense is trailing late in a game). Otherwise the prevent is almost never used. The defense trades size for speed, and tries to ensure that no receiver can get behind the defense. A prevent defense backs up the coverage so far that it will often give up long yardage, but it makes scoring a touchdown in a single play very difficult.
http://dailydish.honadvblogs.com/2008/11/12/its-not-rocket-science/
No, the answer is, “The prevent defense prevents you from winning.” That’s shorter to say. Faster to type. 😀
I think you meant the classic:
👿 “AT THE END OF THE DAY” 👿
“The prevent defense… AH C’MON…” – Cal Lee.
(Well not really a Cal Lee quote, but it sounds like Coach Lee … 😉 )
That reminds me, I forgot to look up the word “charticle.” So I just did. Geez, I hate charticles.
gee thanks, are you trying to say that my body is wide enough to write “cinci pussaycats” on it??
I think Ron Lee has come up with something new, it’s called a Prevent Offense – running the ball when get plenty time left but no can run out the clock. It also prevents you from winning.
Kazz . . .
Actually, unko Herman used to say, “At the end of the day, when all is said and done . . .”
Man, when he combined them like that I knew the lie was going to be a good one so I always put on my chest wadders before continuing to read what he said.
Penguin . . .
Hey! Thanks for the link. The additional irritating comments from the readers are super! Maybe we need to put a list together specific to Hawai’i. HA!
Time to check for cracks. See you on Aloha Friday!
wafan – have fun in front of the mirror
KARAOKE CALL
Saturday, November 15, 2008
9:00 PM (after Wahine Volleyball)
Club Genji
Karaoke Call and “not-Lyn’s-birthday” celebration after the Wahine volley match this Saturday. Some arriving at 8:15 for dinner first.
Come anytime, leave anytime. No charge except for your optional fuud and drink. Lots of 60’s, 70’s and 80’s favorites to rock the house! Some Japanese tunes too as we share the main lounge (unless we double our numbers), but we’ll have room to dance–or boots to walk–in the aisles 🙂
RSVP’s not necessary, but let me know if you can (for initial setup reasons or you want a late night nabeyaki udon).
He did? I dunno I usually stopped listening to whatever he was saying about six words into his first sentence of a statement so that probably is the reason I missed the rest of his chattering.
Stretch: Ouch. But I think that’s more Coach Mack. Yeah, not a big fan of it too. Then again, I’m an offensive guy.
Didn’t Dick Tomey perfect this at SJSU for about seven seasons? 😛
Kazz – Dick Tomey has a Prevent “the” Offense – flood the field before the game to make it a pigpen
I hoisted a double shot of CR in celebration of your birthday Pauoa Boy. It went down so smooth that I had another and another and well…Happy Birthday Pauoa Boy! Now if I could get just get a ride home…oh wait! I think I’ve been here before…yes! I am HOME!
Pauoa Boy:
Mrs A-House and I send you most happy bifday wishes and may your neighbor commit to UH> awesome!!!!!
W-Doc,
Just go to the game tomorrow if DrDoc is still in hospital. No need run around “popping in” here & there to see people. Slow down. If DrDoc goes home tomorrow, then stay home. You’ll get to see us pretty soon. Relax. Heal. Breathe. No pet da cat!
las vegas,
Haircut or Buzzzz cut?
Wreck,
I see you on TV in the commercial. Where are you?
Someone PLEASE upload this commercial to YouTube, or get me a tape of it, or something. It’s been out there for a while, and I still haven’t seen it.
not to out do the princess, but here’s tonight’s news.

Happy Birthday Pauoa Boy
Long Time UH Fan … appreciate the welcome to this board. I’m sort of the quite type but will post every now and then. I really like the people here because they seem like Ohana, have a lot of fun, and have interesting information to share. Thanks again.
mano1 — let me add my “Welcome” too. Do you reside in Hawaii?
stretch,
i would too.
Looks like NMSU will be firing Mumme…helped by how he never signed the contract extension they offered him last year. That makes it a lot easier on them financially if they fire him.
Now why would Mumme refuse to sign a one-year extension? Was he holding out on a longer term, expecting to win more games this season with his new defensive coordinator?
The football players on BYU, Utah, and Utah State have a total of more than 100 returned missionaries. This is a factor in a number of recruit’s choice of schools, including Manti.

I’m guessing that Mumme thought that he could get a better offer after this season…but instead, his job is definitely in danger.
Isn’t Starbucks teetering on financial involvency?
Why aren’t the EPA going after that Aussie? Endangering the poor whales! Shame on him.
Garret…
Not taking that 1-year extension was like putting all your eggs into one basket that hadn’t been made yet.
It’s too bad. His offense was okay.. it was his lack of defense that hurt him the most. The new DC just needs a little more time and recruits.
