Letuli, Purcell join AFL team
Thank you to DJ Mitcho for letting us know that former Warriors Laupepa Letuli and Melila Purcell III signed with the Arena Football League’s Spokane Shock.
Here’s the link: Signings.

Oceanic and UH are expected to announce pay-per-view plans as early as Monday. This is the first academic year Oceanic will have exclusive primary rights to UH sportscasts.
Oceanic has completed its production staff, with Steve Jackson — a highly regarded do-everything worker at KFVE — joining the cable outlet as coordinating producer. Earlier, Candace Fujishima, who was a KFVE director, signed up with Oceanic.

Billy Ray Stutzmann and Miah Ostrowski made some long TD catches yesterday; looks like the deep routes will be a slotback threat in the near future. Everyone keeps raving about Breydan Torres-Keohokapu. Here he is getting open for a TD catch:

Matagisila Lefiti snapping to Bryant Moniz:
The running back is J.R. Abad, who was on the spring roster. He is not on the 120-player roster, but is working out in the hope there will be an opening.

Former UH linebacker Blaze Soares said the shoulder injury he suffered in last week’s game in Japan “is no big deal.” He missed the second half after he was struck by an opponent’s helmet.
Soares, who earned a bachelor’s degree in December, has been working as an entertainment coordinator, among other things, in recent months.
Soares has always been one of the toughest Warriors. He played one UH season despite a shoulder injury that prevented him from raising his arm. He also made a successful comeback after suffering an achilles’ injury.

Go Warriors!
Go Warriors!
Go Warriors!
3rd while vacationing in Orlando, soooooo ready for football.
G
O
!
Warriors!
I hope PPV cost will be reasonable…and they have the right announcers in the right sports for the right reasons…HD hurray!
Good Morning Tsai-kos!
ST, that is exciting news! Can’t wait!
I will be on the Big Island next week, but will find out one way or another.
Cheers!
ST, will they also be announcing the names of the sports announcers on Monday?
Good Morning Gangeez! 🙂
I’m haka!
Good Morning haka, gigi and csb! How’s things this morning?
Where’s Tom Mui?
‘Gmorning gang!
gigi- where will you stay on the Big Island? Kona side?
Alnbama- now that’s dedication and commitment if I’ve ever seen it! Hope you’re enjoying yourself in Orlando.
DPK- How you, Hawaiian!
Good morning, gang!
PPV on Oceanic and the S-A…
Hi, DPK!
Hi, ST!
Morning, A-Joe! Kuahiwi Ranch might be selling beef at the KCC Farmer’s Market tomorrow.
ST- Great to hear about the production crew but, has Oceanic settled on their on air talents yet?
Howzit DPK,
Eh, I see you been eating out a lot. Don’t make me call your doctor. 😉
They are finalizing the talent.
All signs point to splitting up assignments. It does not appear, at this time, that there will be one person doing all of the UH sports.
Top 25?
I coulda been a contenter.
Hi A-joe,
I will be staying in Hilo Sunday-Monday
and in Waikoloa Tuesday-Thursday.
Back in HNL on Friday.
‘Gmorning Slugger- I wen go last week. They weren’t there. Shucks! The girl at the entrance said they might be there tomorrow and to check their website. I just did but it has last weeks info still. I going go anyway. If anything I’ll pick up some Honey and visit my friend and her BF, Chef Hardy the Mobile Chef. =)
sorry papajoe2, i didn’t mean to take so many spots…orrrrrrr…maybe i did…stelllllaaaaaa!
ST, I hope there’s a spot for Jim Leahey.
Another Tsaiko told me she does not like his voice, but I think it’s very pleasant to listen to.
Very sonorous.
gigi- Awesomeness! Hope you have a nice time relaxing and taking in all the wonderful charms of the Big Island. =)
Gigi:
Checking dictionary …
ST, apparently there are several ways to pronounce sonorous.
Accent on 1st or 2nd syllable? Take your pick.
1. giving out or capable of giving out a sound, especially a deep, resonant sound, as a thing or place: a sonorous cavern.
2. loud, deep, or resonant, as a sound.
3. rich and full in sound, as language or verse.
GOOD MORNING HAWAII!
DPK #14 – was drinking coffee, reading the paper, looking at ads for cats, stuff like that!
Gigi:
He does have a nice tempo.
tommui:
I have a hard time finding my paper. Wild Thing isn’t an accurate paper thrower. I guess it’s the plastic bag that affects his grip.
I know some people used to listen to Curren/Kekaula while watching the TV.
Can’t understand why.
Unless it has to do with Jim’s mistakes on IDs of the players.
Balderdash Definition-
Sonorous: A Narcoleptic Dinosaur.
Who should the announcers be?
And the sidekicks?
For sure, I like:
Jim Leahy = Football, Baseball
Pal Eldredge = Baseball
Chris McLaughlin = Volleyball
Artie Wilson = Basketball
dave reardon’s article this am about mc greenwood’s idiomatic response to mac’s salary, “it is what it is” I found to be more sublime than figurative. after all, when it comes down to a generous housing allowance for our manoa boss, “It is what it is”.
OC High schoolAll Star North South Football game at Orange Coast College tonite. I am ready for some football
I sit with the same guys for over 40 years
hopefully I will never have to hear the voice of Jim Leahey again.
One thing certain we know about what coach tomey will do on special teams…. we dont know. his recent meeting with the iconic frank beamer of virginia tech, college special teams guru, may hold a clue–that this old tiger, aka as dick tomey, is poised to learn “new” tricks. and, for those of you that traditionally plan your whizz-break during special team play–hold, and count to ten. otherwise, you may miss something very special.
#34 A-Joe. that would be sonoroussaurus.
warriorsun:
Those who live in UH-subsidized off-campus houses shouldn’t throw stones?
Congratulations to Carissa Moore, World Champion! Bringing it back to where it belongs.
I think Jim should do an arena sport where ID of the players is easier.
Leave football to someone with better vision.
Answer: Sonorous.
Question: What do you say when Sonor asked whom the present was from.
I understand the frustration with Jim Leahey, but I think he is and has to be a part of UH sports. He just needs to stay focused with his strong sport(s) at this stage. Kanoa is the next generation and will do well.
#44 ST, don’t quit your day job.:)
I love da guy, but Jim should not do volleyball for sure.
Anyway, Aloha. Gotta go tee off soon! Fooorrre!
Congrats to A-joe and gigi for adding two new words to the blog: sonorus and balderdash. 😆
ST:
that could fit but not in this context, mc was dodging more than flinging. lol.
sonorous: 1. inclined to use sonar. 2. subjected to sonar.
balderdash: A competition to see who can grow bald first.
BTW – bulla wins!
Interesting UH budget comparisons by Reardon this morning. The UH overall system wide budget is one thousand four hundred million dollars. Taxpayer subsidies amount to three hundred sixty million and the athletic departments budget is thirty million dollars.
DPK, is bulla really bald or is he just clean shaven?
I never could tell the difference with him.
People generally don’t like change. I think elements of KFVE need to be incorporated into Oceanic. Thus, the hiring of Fujishima and Jackson, for starters.
40- papajoe-
You’re right! I stand corrected. Upon further review the definition states:
-A caveman’s reaction to a good Brontosaurus Burger.
Synonym: Kanakasaurus Attack.
Picture:
say you are the beat writer for oregon, washington, boise or whomever, and you cover the hometown football team rabidly. you write story. you post pictures. you post them on your blog daily.
most of the time the pictures and stories give the public a behind the scene look of whats going in within the football team even at different times of the year-offseason, spring, inseason, presason, postseason. what the beat writers are doing is putting the team under a microscope. what the beat writers are doing by posting on their blogs are opening the door for anyone in the world to see of whats going on . its their domain, with all due respect to the hometeam they are covering. this is good.
the role of the beat writers can generate a lot of interest in a team, players and coaches. the beat writer writes reports (blog entries) of what he sees, and in some cases some beat writers take pictures of players and other objects of what they sees–i.e., so and so benched this amount, so and so caught spectacular passes in 7 on 7 drills, so and so from an nfl team is helping the players or posting a picture of an so and so orange resting on the field etc. this is basic fare, smooth, unscrutable, digestable,
for the most part the football beat writers covering their hometown football teams can filter in or filter out whatever they want on their blogs. they can write whatever script they want.
why, then, on this green earth when leaving an indeliable impression on people is coveted would a beat writer expose a picture of the hometown football team that shines them in a bad light? why? it doesn’t make sense. the hometown football team shouldnt be the recepeint of pictures that disgrace them. further, the beatwriter should know that for every action that he undertakes theres a reaction. stick to the basic fare. the hometown team should be spared of the papparrazzi like (at times) beat writer in their pressence.
I think Kanakasaurus Attack should be the nickname for a defensive scheme.
Or a restaurant.
ST, are you using your new camera now?
Pics are very clear and colorful.
The WAC is trying to “upgrade” their basketball programs. That probably is the way to go since they only have 7 football playing members. Still though, if a decent WAC football team schedules weak non-conference opponents (who could be weaker?) and goes undefeated, will they still get an BCS bid? Does the non football teams in the WAC get the football money too? In basketball, with 2 or 3 good recruits added to the returning players, a WAC team may have the makings to get to the big dance. They need more than 1 team in it though. With 2 teams and a couple of victories in the tournament, they maybe making some good money. Just thinking out loud. Still glad the UH made their move though.
Aloha Kakahiaka!
Well, if Oceanic keeps a MONOPOLY on UH Sports, PPV will have a whole new meaning for us non-Oceanic folks. Hopefully this is only for one year.
Papa Leahey – I love the spirit he brings to the broadcast. He is largely focused on the positive- from both sides of the line. I do not want to see him go quietly into the Manoa night just yet.
I love RK but find the radio broadcast to be sometimes more on the curmudgeonly side. Not my fave.
ALTHOUGH… Kauai will have the ability to hear the radio games this year… YEA!!!
Good morning folks!
It’s Aloha Friday!
yeah, reardon made it sound like the uhad budget at manoa in contrast to the overall uh statewide budget was “one scoop rice” at a sumo communal lunch.
Liz:
Isn’t Oceanic available on Kauai?
Hi Liz!
LizK, I guess you either gotta come here for some live games or JJ’s Broiler? I hope you find a way.
I think Kanoa Leahy and Howard Dashefsky could do a good job……To tell you the truth I don’t like Jim Leahy……Alot of times he talks against Hawai’i and always gives alot of positives from the opposing teams….And if PPV is over $40-50 then they can shut the front door ..At least I been getting free tickets for the past 4 years..Hopefully I am off from work to go to every game this year
papajoe:
I think WAC’s problem is there aren’t very many Division I schools in the West.
Always said Benson is playing Moneyball; he worked to get Nevada, Boise State, etc., into the WAC.
Unfortunately, it’s difficult to keep them.
I decided to purchase a slingbox to make sure I have access to the UH games even when Betty and I are in Alaska. I know the season opener is on ESPN2 but I’m taking no chances. If I have to, I’ll watch it on my android. Glad I remembered what Garret wrote about slingboxes about a year or two ago.
Heineken:
It’s always better to see a football game live, especially with this offense.
I think men’s volleyball also is better live. The game is so fast, that the only way to capture the action is with a farther-away, wide-angled shot. But then you can’t see the players’ faces. If you shoot close up, you miss the action.
Slingboxes are a good option.
It sure is pricey to be a UH fan these days.
It’s the new camera, but I haven’t figured out how to use all of the adjustments.
ST (our ubiquitous reporter on-the-scene), dont show pics of our athletes scaling fences to practice on the grass field–competitive recruiters love it and use it. unless you r taking pics of fence climbers 60 miles south of tuscon…..but, even that is more dangerous 🙂
With only 7 WAC football teams, they need to find 6 out of conference opponents each to fill out a 12 game schedule. Some conferences only need 2 OC opponents. Looks like the Warriors may have found the solution for their 2012 opponent in the WAC. Even for years to come, if the WAC doesn’t expand their football size, then OC opponents may be within reach. Unless the WAC blackballs the 4 escapees.
I think we will buy PPV again this year.
If anyone wants to split the cost with us, please leave a comment on my blog by clicking on my name.
We have a 52 inch HDTV.
Isn’t Soares one of Glanville’s prospect for the Colonials?
DPK:
No, Soares didn’t attend the tryouts.
Way to go Carissa!
http://www.staradvertiser.com/news/breaking/20110715_Hawaii_surfer_Carissa_Moore_clinches_world_championship.html
new camera for tsai?
look-out! russ tanoue should be worried.
There is no sport better on TV, than live. NONE.
Well.. maybe golf. At least when you are at home you don’t have to worry about falling asleep standing up.
When I took an a team in another sport to Idaho a few years back, an Idaho coach said that all public parks are open to everyone at any time. We could go to any park and practice, even high schools fields. In Hawaii, a lot of the parks are fenced in, especially the school fields. The football players would have no problem in Idaho finding somewhere to practice. What if they put polls with locks at the entrance of the field to keep out vehicles, but students could use the field. Of course, they hired the NFL guy to fix the field a few years back and if they open it up, it might get messed up.
good morning villagers.
thanks for the pics st. now that is what i call utilizing the campus as a resource.
Really? I think I know what you mean, but for me (and others) he cannot keep up with the pace of football, bball, and vball anymore and even sometimes baseball and softball too.
The miscue on names is the worst. I cannot stand it when people cannot get people’s names correct when your job is to vocalize what you are watching. As a voice for UH sports, the BASIC function of getting people’s names shouldn’t be in question.
Speaking to him in person though, he is still sharp as a knife and anyone can banter all day long about sports with him. He DOES have a great memory and can hold good conversations.
I guess as you get older, when the lights go on, they get too bright.
congratulations to Carissa Moore! represent!
Gigi, I thought you went to the football games?
i have a hunch that papa leahey will be hired a sport or two. (he’s not as grouchy these days)
probably football and baseball.
for football i’d really enjoy having the big guy paired with him.
pal and papa leahey are a great match still in baseball.
i’d like to see kanoa take over the mike for basketball. i believe that he and artie could make a great pair.
volleyball is up for grabs. mclachlin is a good call as the color man.
some of the blame for misidentification has to be attributed to the spotters not performing.
i like the guy who does radio for Wahine volleyball. KATSU!
Couch Potato,
Good attitudes indeed huh? More people could learn from that no non-sense, do what has to be done attitude without all the moaning and complaining.
Everything happens for a reason.
Trust me, there won’t be locked fences or band camps interfering with workouts next year.
the problem is when long rallies in volleyball occurs, jim gets all mixed up.
i’ve seen things happen for no reason at all.
i forgot to mention that bryant moniz looks rock solid.
if i didn’t know better i’d think his build resembles that of a running back or linebacker.
I think in volleyball, because the action is so fast and it’s televised, it’s not important to name everyone who touches the volleyball.
Then again, what do I know?
even players on the bench get credited for a dig or kill. lol
There will be some pleasant surprises.
As my classmate Margo always says: There’s enough success for everyone.
Thanks ST:
Oh by your picks it looks like we will be running the pistol alot
GO WARRIORS!
Happy Aloha Friday!
For color analysts, I like it when they can identify a scheme live. I think too often, analysts rely heavily on replays. It’s always good to add to what a TV viewer can see, not duplicate it.
st intercepts passes at he workouts?
Discount tickets (50 yd line) for San Jose St. road game.
I have 50 yard line seats; about 15 rows up, behind our Warriors bench, at $25 each; group rate–and I have 15 tickets left. All together we will have 100 Warrior fans sitting in these 4 rows, from row 12 to 15; with a possible 200 more UH fans behind us. You can’t get these kine seats at any other stadium. Watch them perform the haka right in front of us–a definite chicken skin moment! This will be the last game at San Jose on Oct. 14, 6pm–a friday nite game!
Email me at: tomkitaguchi@yahoo.com
GO WARRIORS!
ST:
So since Forciers transcripts arrive today .you think a weekend visit for forcier is good to go
he should be the
I thought on Makule Mondays radio show, Jim Leahy said that he was not going to be apart of the Oceanic broadcast of UH sports.
In passing drills, the running back doesn’t really have a significant role. So where he stands isn’t important to the play.
Also are we running the Pistol?
Heineken:
His mother told UH the transcripts would arrive today.
Seeing is believing.
He’s an enigma.
If you talk to him, he says the right things and he’s very enthusiastic. Then again, I’ve only spoken with him a few times. Like I said, I don’t think I’m high on his to-do list.
Good morning Tsaikos…another busy day so I’ll have to do an esme and jump in and then out….
Two things…Anyone see the story about HF in the paper as being appointed Asst. Athletics Director or something like that at Syracuse…??? Sheesh, they make it sound like he was the reason for everything good at UH….Calm down now Kevin and A-House…
The second thing is if anyone would be interested in helping a friend of mine who has ovarian cancer. Her cousin is doing the Relay for Life in Hilo tomorrow I believe and is looking to raise $100 for the cause. I’ll post her webpage here in case anyone wants to donate. Thanks.
http://main.acsevents.org/site/TR/RelayForLife/RFLFY11National?px=22260780&pg=personal&fr_id=31949
Hope everyone has a good day!!! Now, I’m going back to work.
One more thing about Jim Leahey is his choice words for certain aspects of what happens at a live UH game.
Sorry, but he is out of touch with what is happening today.
He belittled “spiderman” on TV, calling him classless for essentially dancing, while waving his okole at another team. Now, I guess by the KGB’s standard this is considered crude, but more people laugh and get a kick out of it than some realize and in doing so, he further alienates views of a certain demographic. Duke fans, old and young, would rip him apart if he was calling the Duke game when “speedo man” debuted, but that’s Duke and these are Hawaii fans, and that is another topic in itself.
When volleyball player Jarod Lofy got a mohawk in his freshman year, he and Mclaughlin called him “selfish” and called it “messy”, again playing the part of the nun with the ruler in hand. Unnecessary and further isolates the image of UH viewership on K-5 i.e. the McDonald’s 6am posse.
What was the saying, if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all.
Too much time is spent on him making his comments on matters like these which are NON-ISSUES and has no bearing on what he is covering and that is athletic competition.
Everyone talks about UH appealing to a younger audience for the future, well, all of what I mentioned and then some is NOT a good way to do it.
I think it’s a symmetrical formation, but the Pistol is different in concept from the four-wide offense.
Besides, there’s not much variation to UH’s formations the past 12 years. If the ball is in the middle, it’s a balanced formation. If the ball is on the right hash, it’s three receivers on the left side. If the ball is on the left hash, it’s three receivers on the right side.
Now, what they do out of the formations is the complicated part.
good alojah friday warrior country. nice day here in the 808. play nice at work den when pau hana go give um gang.
checking out something affecting one of the tsaiko’s. if confirmed will post latter on today or tomorrow.
aloha
“Says the right things and enthusiastic…”
Sounds familiar.
ST:
LOL when you post Forcier is on campus sometime in the next1-5 days….can you put “I like to dedicate this blog to Heineken”
I thought Hawaiian Telcom was striking a deal to broadcast some of the games alongside Oceanic? Maybe that was just for internet streaming.
Players whos NCAA eligibility ran out years ago are also credited.
I’m pretty sure I have ADD, anyway, so I have a hard time watching telecasts all the way.
But I find Leahey to be entertaining, and that’s pretty much all I want out of telecast.
Poor Jim Leahey.
After reading all of the above, it seems maybe he has reached the end of the line.
He was the sonorous voice of UH sports for the longest time.
Heineken:
Absolutely.
I’m not sure what the problem is. It sounds like this is a mutually good arrangement for the player and the team. Then again, I don’t know the full details of his academic and personal situation.
I used to watch Leahey & Leahey every week, but haven’t lately.
Too bad Kanoa doesn’t have Jim’s voice.
Somehow, he sounds like a kid with his tenor voice.
I think people root for Kanoa because, in a way, they’re hoping for a younger version of Jim.
I don’t get to watch his telecasts very often, which is why I get a different perspective. But whenever I eat with Jim, we have a lot of laughs and arguments and I learn a lot.
jim could do commercials for jack’s.
If Oceanic is really planning an all-UH channel, they can still have Jim Leahey as an important part of UH athletic broadcasts. A host, perhaps of pre-game segments, maybe the featured individual for a UH-branded sports talk show. I think Jim Leahey is EXCELLENT in a taped setting like how he and Kanoa are for the L&L Show on PBS which I still enjoy.
Also, expand his presence. Make him the point man and the #1 priority when it comes to hosting UH-related programs like the Na Koa telethon or any TV specials on UH athletics. I’m a Liz Chun fan, and this might sound hypocritical but maybe examine Jim Leahey hosting the Coach Mack Show???
Jim Leahey still has MUCH to offer and I do miss L&L on the radio ala the AM1500 days. Very witty and funny.
you are right about kanoa. let the legacy live on, i say.
i’ve been listening to leaheys ever since i got that crystal radio set.
Personally, I’ve recently taken the time to listen to Kanoa’s broadcasts of basketball games and he is not his father, but the important thing is he is himself and in that he is good.
Maybe the next one to move on up ala Neil Everett?
Kanoa will no doubt carry on the Leahey legacy in his own way with respect to what his father and grandfather did for UH athletics.
I look forward to it.
I like the fried rice at Jack’s.
kevin the kazzer…100%!!!
ST:
Thanks And if Jim leaves Kanoa will step up…..High School football and Fridays and College football on saturdays(someone can replace him for High School if there is on saturdays) I believe he already is part of the staff for oceanic and at least he can get all polynesian names announced correctly and he may throw in a couple “Katoosh” after some big hits
jack’s grilled biscuits!
corned beef hash.
kanoa and kekaula!
or kekaula and kanoa?
k and k show time.
that would make for a great setup.
don’t get me wrong. i think bobby curran does a good job with the play by play. however, i don’t think his present contract would allow him to leave the morning show and the p by p.
Maybe somebody already posted this… dunno.. but it looks like Nagamine (Wahine Soccer’s new coach) is off to a ‘running’ start with her first group of recruits …
http://hawaiiathletics.com/news/2011/7/15/WSOC_0715114602.aspx?path=wsoc
Also, women’s basketball head coach Dana Takahara-Dias announced the hiring of Lindsey Baker as Director of Operations for the Rainbow Wahine.
http://hawaiiathletics.com/news/2011/7/15/WBB_0715113424.aspx
Hopefully all the stars will align for Warrior/Wahine/Rainbow sports this upcoming school year.
I don’t envision Oceanic hiring a play-by-play person as a full-time employee.
It probably will be a la carte, as it is now with high school sports.
MIH:
Thanks for the links.
My husband looooves high school football on OC16.
Maybe, some of his enthusiasm will rub off on me one of these days.
But right now, I don’t have patience for it.
By the way, didn’t mean to demean band camp.
It’s actually an interesting thing watching the kids play while marching. I wonder how the choreographer comes up with the routines? Now that’s a big-picture person.
I used to think it would be nice if Oceanic built its own stadium, turning it into, essentially, an outdoor studio.
Then somebody mentioned that Mililani High serves that purpose.
Back to my workout photo:
The players are doing the “ladder” drill. The interesting thing is they’re all doing it rapidly. That takes a lot of coordination. If one guy trips, it could become falling dominos.
Credit Grant Steen, the assistant strength coordinator, for supervising these supervised workouts.
thanks for the soccer link madeinhawaii. looking good for the Wahine soccer program!
oh, is that what the guys are doing?
I thought they were dancing the electric slide.
Good morning everyone!
Good pix ST.
There’s also a policy that if a newcomer misses a class, all of the newcomers have to do rolls.
Nobody is missing class.
st. you should use the movie feature on your camera, if get. would be good to see at least a couple of vids. just remember to bring extra power supply for your camera.
like you know how to do the electric slide. lol
can’t dance the electric slide, but love to watch it.
Couch:
I can shoot video, but I have to wait for ScottM to be free to show me how to upload it to the blog.
We were reminded yesterday that this upcoming fall and spring sports season will represent 40 YEARS OF RAINBOW WAHINE ATHLETICS. They’re planning an all-Rainbow Wahine sports banquet at the end of the year. Pretty sure it means end of the spring and not in December.
Obviously all Wahine programs are not that old, softball will be in it’s 28th year and track and field and cross country are the newest to date. It’s a collective 40 years.
I’m not high on ScottM’s to-do list, either.
Al,
Never tried anything else at Jack’s. Best fried rice I ate. Mililani Restaurant’s podagee sausage fried rice is killerz too.
Thanks Kazz, uh, I mean, Kevin. Just can’t get used to your new screen name.
Speaking of electric slide…. it’s bon dance ‘season’.
Stephen: Do you know if there will still be delayed day after or TV broadcasts of UH football games?
Was on campus yesterday on business. The grass practice fields look really nice. Back in the day there used to be rocks and a concrete give on the old grass field. Before that it was a dirt parking lot.
Unsupervised summer workouts have come a long way at UH. Back in 99, UH QB Dan Robinson was throwing passes to the student managers.
you should text and call ScottM constantly. the irritation will be effective and you’ll be on his to-do list asap.
ScottM and SteveM related?
On a side note, UH fans and supporters should feel MORE than confident that our AD Jim Donovan stressed the importance about NCAA compliance with all booster organizations and members.
It was a coincidence that GA Tech got slammed on the same day as the AKA Compliance Meeting.
JD essentially laid it out in simple terms:
“We’re a D1 athletic program in the middle of the Pacific and is a constant financial challenge in itself so we do NOT need any compliance issues with the NCAA”.
Sure it goes without saying, but I think people should also have great confidence in UH’s compliance staff. Compliance is a serious issue and we all need a ‘refresher’ here and there to keep us on our toes.
#149 KEVIN
I understand that there will be something in August celebrating Women’s sports at UH
Kevin,
I thought we only had one person working the Compliance end of the Athletic Department. Has that changed? Or are we still on a boat without paddles if she gets sick, retires suddenly, or goes on and extended leave?
Tom,
I saw that too, but pretty sure they said end of the year for the big banquet. Yesterday they said that a banquet in August was for volleyball and basketball I think. They were kind of giving a quick rundown with not too much detail. Kind of like a “heads-up”.
i was surprised a certain blogger even knew what the electric slide was.
kevin…that’s right.
the japanese bon dance is from where the origins of the electric slide come from.
Made,
Amanda Paterson now has an official assistant. She was hired a year or two ago. So pretty much two people make up the “staff”.
Well, three I guess since they fall under Marilyn Moniz-Kaho’ohanohano.
RE: #157
No relation. I would help ST if I knew how… 🙄
ScottM would help too. ST just hasn’t figured out sufficient bribes yet.
Me… I’m easy.
For me, I think Kanoa Leahey would do a good job for UH men’s basketball for TV. He did a very nice gig at the Diamond Head Classic with Doug Gottlieb for ESPN/ESPN2. As far as color analyst for basketball I’ve gotten stale with Artie Wilson. There doesn’t to be the pizzaz, the energy, the excitement, the flair to bring to the table. I mean he’s not a Dick Vitale. Then again, for many years the UH basketball team was not exciting either. But last year things are a lot more exciting. Do we give Wilson a mulligan? I don’t know. Or, do we give Dickman a chance or bring in Portnoy for TV color.
Al,
First bon dance I went to blew me away because of the electric slide.
It came out of nowhere. I didn’t understand it.
For about a minute, my face looked like I ate a lemon and I was tilting my head, you know like that thing dogs do when they see something that confuses them.
I have a personal “death penalty” on novelty music more than 6 months old.
Electric slide…
I don’t understand it.
I mean you go to a filipino grad party or any kind of filipino party and everyone doesn’t do anything, until that damn song comes and as if it was that music from Weekend At Bernie’s 2, you know, the one that makes the dead guy walk funny, all these people with blank looks on their faces drag themselves to the dance floor and mindlessly move to that thing.
Then when it’s done they go back as if it never happened.
Like being abducted by aliens, 5 minutes of your life disappears and you don’t realize it.
i like to watch the bamboo thingy dance.
i tell my friend…why did you have your kid’s grad party at gold coin in waipahu?
wouldn’t you want something else to eat at a party other than what you eat every day?
like why do i want to go to sekiya’s?
Keep bashing the electric slide, and you’ll unleash the fury of the blogmeister!
On a side note, if anyone’s into basketball, you should check out the NCAA Summer League. Got to see Zane Johnson (he hit about 6-7 3’s), Derrick Low, Hauns Brereton, Davis Rozitis, Jullian Sensley, Geremy Robinson, Kyle Pape, etc. Stokes, Thomas and McDaniels were there but their teams weren’t playing. Quality basketball, and you can’t beat the price.
OK, back to Warrior football and the “office.”
Sorry I brought it up. lol.
All I said was I thought the guys were dancing the electric slide…
and then Keven goes on and on about it.
sheesh!
Al, in case you didn’t know, hubby and I took ballroom dance classes for almost 10 years and learned various line dances too.
Electric slide was one of them, but I don’t remember how to do it anymore.
It was back in the 1990s, dass why.
Any sight of Forcier??
but just watch all those NFL players who competed on Dancing with the Stars.
2 of them actually won the trophy!
Emmitt Smith and Hines Ward.
now now gigi-hawaii, we all read things that you keep repeating. nothing wrong with the electric slide. it’s part of the history of dance. almost like MJ’s thriller. jamon.
best dwts dancer? hands down Nicole Scherzinger.
I know, I know.
I am repetitious.
Life is repetitious.
Football practice is repetitious.
i am partial to Kristi Yamaguchi.
Loved her on ice, loved her on the floor.
that you are, that you are.
you make her sound like a drink and you a lesbian. lol
Howzit Tsaikos!!
Happy Aloha Friday!!
Nice pix, ST.
HF to Syracuse? Ha! They deserve each other. (I’m a Hoya, need I say more?)
Derek – aren’t there any better choices for basketball color analyst? I don’t like either, especially Portnoy. His voice is irritating.
Is McLachlin done with coaching vb at Stanford?
Hope Vern Podlewski gets the Asst job, but I’ll miss seeing him on the MPI campus. That will also mean that the MPI will be looking for a new girls varsity coach (at this late date!).
Bring it on.
But I think ST will appreciate the “Weekend at Bernie’s 2” reference. 😆 😆 😆
there he goes again! Hi Kevin!
I’d pull an Abercrombie and ask for the resignation of the following from existance:
-electric slide (dance and song)
-that song from Billy Ray Cyrus.
-The Macarena (song and dance)
-The Wave (worn-out crowd thing at sporting events)
-YMCA (song and the thing with the arms, at least calling for removal from sporting events)
-use of Queen’s “We Will Rock You” at sporting events
-Hawaii Stars, not sports related, but I hate that show.
-Brown Bags to Stardom (really? To “stardom”???)
If transcripts get in by today, I’d say we should all be able to smile. Well the Forcier supporters should.
If not hmmmm makes you wonder.
Sheesh Kevin, why don’t you just say how you feel?
Ironically 70% of the things you would want eliminated, is what would entice me to go to Oahu, to see the Bows live.
lol
BTW Gigi what days are you and Kawika going be in Hilo?
in hilo sunday and monday
will fly in helicopter over the volcano on monday.
going dine at Cafe Pesto, recommended by d1shima.
I have some Omiyage, for you take back. email me at kawika49 at hotmail.com
When I went on a Pride of Aloha cruise, it seemed like every event started with the electric slide. As the cruise went on, it got irritating. The whole cruise events started with the slide. I don’t do the electric slide and neither did a whole lot of people on the ship. After the first few, it got stale but, they kept on doing it. The same few people was dancing it and along with whatever crew was there at the time of the slide.
Vote to keep Jim Leahey and Pal Eldridge on UH Baseball. Good chemistry. Different announcers for other sports, though. There’s a reason why Leahey won all the announcing awards during his career. He can convey excitement as well as any other broadcaster around and he also can be outspoken, which is a good thing. Time for him to ease off and let another generation take over.
kawika, do you live in Hilo?
let’s get together.
i will email you.
Re: Police Escort for Coaches
From last night I Posted about the tradition of having police accompany HC’s to the field.
I know Kawika doesn’t favor the idea.
But how do others feel? To me it always looked kool.
big island favorite…hawaiian style cafe.
200…after the spam removal.
Thought about the unfortunate guy who got sucked into the blowhole on Maui. The guys’ girlfriend, who wasn’t there, said the he wasn’t acting foolishly and there should have been warning signs there. Anybody smell a lawsuit? Helllooooo???? Do you have to live in Hawaii to know that anything like that is dangerous. Not acting foolishly?? Only a fool would go that close to a blow hole. Warning signs?? That’s privately property. You were trespassing. Venting again. Layers will probably win out though. I hope not. Maybe they should have gone to the Big Island and tried to touch the molten lava. No signs there saying its hot.
Top CCVI!
Word on street is the blog will not be behind the pay wall, meaning, it will still be free. (Of course, that also means that spam will continue.)
But at least we get to keep Big Island Kurt.
Will look forward to those Go routes from the slots!
B I K…B I K!
“ferd” seems to hang around the office a bit more than The Blog Host….
…does he have a monthly parking pass?
Who was delivering all those TD passes?
NauPauLunChauWah….
I’m in the office now.
Ferd’s always in the office. I think he parks by the gym where he works out.
I did find a good place to file stories at UH: L&L on the second floor.
ST, that’s good news. Wouldn’t want to lose mainland and foreign readers, either.
For study while I’m gone….

kawika, in case you are wondering, my email is from Glenda.
Moniz, Higgins, Shutter and Spain were throwing passes yesterday.
I haven’t seen Austin in a couple of weeks. Not sure if he’s in California.
I know Graves and Nielsen are training in California. Richard Torres and Kamalani Alo are training with Nielsen.
Gigi:
The stories, though, will be behind the pay wall.
ST, I get the actual paper on my porch every morning, without fail.
I love the Electric Slide, although, of course, the song is not entitled “The Electric Slide.”
Whatever happened to Marcia Griffiths?
By the way, congrats eligible bachelors. J-Lo is single again.
Or is Kevin going to ban J-Lo, too?
Gigi:
You’ve got a porch? Do you live in Tara?
What? stress from Idol weighed too heavily on her marriage?
ST, mine is an itty-bitty porch.
Only 1 person can stand on it and put on shoes.
IWWTHM,
Don’t agree that Mack should have a police escort to the field.
Hawaii does not like pomp and circumstance.
And having the players wear tuxes or suits to the locker rooms?
no way!
J-Lo rocks!
Electric Boogie rocks!
papajoe2. uh-huh, ignorance kills.
J-Lo?
What she doing now? Other than make-up commercials.
Another one past their prime.

Oh! I’d wanna push for an expiration date on nicknames for musical artists too.
Jennifer Lopez is like what? 45?
Wrestlers get to keep theirs.
I think it’s going to be hilarious when Dwayne Johnson is like 80 and will be called “The Rock”. brah, you’re 80, nothing on you will be like a rock.
wish i could sing since i’m way better looking than marc anthony. lol
Thank goodness WB won’t be behind the pay wall…it’s good for breaking news like J-Lo today. WOW, that’s major. And congratulations to Steve Jackson. Good for him – he’s a good guy!
gotta respect the legacy of nicknames. bambino, the king of rock, mark twain, lady bird, say hey kid, the mailman, splendid splinter, broadway…
70% is a lot.
I’m sure Coach Mack and the boys appreciate the honesty tho.
#229 – Kazz – that’s why get Viagara
papajoe2 — a small cohesive group can take over a dance or other venue on a ship. Most newer ships have 2-3 dance spots. But I KNOW the Tsai-kos could take over any Karaoke venue, win contests, and the Cruise Director would extend karaoke hours or turn over the keys. 😉
I also see a group of 12 Tsai-kos dominating a few other venues and activities on ships that can still fit through the Panama Canal. Ahhh…can you say “Tsai-ko blog cruise” someday? 😛
I can feel the Tsaiko love!
Would love to get a subscription, but I have to pay for pre-school. I’d love to get the PPV package entirely at my home, but diapers are costly. I’d love to fly to Oahu for every home game — but I’ll keep dreaming. Being a father to two little ones sure put a damper on my UH football budget! 🙂
Glad the pay wall is inclusive of bradduhs/fadaz like me! 🙂

Looks like Kolten Wong is doing well. He is second on the team in Batting Avg. Only bad mark on his stat line is 5 caught stealing.
…or maybe I should have said “exclusive” of bradduhs/fadaz like me!
BIK
Gigi:
You have to look at it from another perspective.
We would have gained mainland subscribers.
I know the perfect guy, but he doesn’t have the face for TV nor the voice for radio. 😐 But he can identify the formations, schemes, and probably name the players even without their game jerseys…
ST, #208, since you mentioned that you are in your office, that means you must be at L&L. 🙂
Alas, no. Sitting next to Ferd, who is writing a surfing story.
I’m just transcribing notes for the football issue. Yes, football is coming up. Eleven more days until Vegas.
J-lo past prime??? You can pass her prime okole this way.
Kevin, with my additional income if they don’t take it way, let me Know when there is a cruise (under a $1,000) in the later part of this year or early next year. After football season.
J-lo past her prime??? You can pass her prime okole this way.
#244 I second the emotion.
Ole Coach Trap got struck with lightning with Kolten.
Haaaaaaad for lightning to strike twice though.
Kolten is in the category of the “perfect storms” this past season:
-Kolten Wong, consistent hitting through all his three years at UH
-Miah Ostrowski, wonderful “debut” last season on the hardcourt
-Jessica Iwata, steady batting #s and national/conference awards and recognition in back to back seasons.
Perfect Storm = Local born talent playing for UH and becoming stars at the D1 level and I don’t mean just being a starter, but really taking over and making waves.
All UH coaches should go after the best available talent they can get WHEREVER they can get it, it’s just a bonus when it’s that perfect combination of local born kids performing so well that takes things up a notch.
Simply going after local kids for the sake of it isn’t the way to go, but I hope all UH coaches understand and don’t completely ignore local possibilites within reason.
ST is famous! Makin a cameo appearance on ESPN Australia.

Thanks for the news.
Hello Tsaikos and good afternoon…
Just wanted to put this out there again.
If anyone would be interested in helping a friend of mine who has ovarian cancer. Her cousin is doing the Relay for Life in Hilo, tomorrow I believe, and is looking to raise $100 for the cause. I’ll post her webpage here in case anyone wants to donate. Thanks.

ST,
Is that a state-run reality show?
Pepa Letuli’s Grandfather taugh my father the Gifo Oki…Samoan Knife Dance.
Does anyone know how to purchase season tickets for the upcoming football season? I checked online and they go on sale on 7/18, Monday. Can I purchase over the phone, online or must I go to Aloha Stadium? Still grounded, so hoping I will be able to the seats I want over the phone or Internet.

Re: Police Escort for Coaches
money well spent
police escort bus to stadium shaves minutes off travel time
provides protection
has contingency plans in place if original traffic route is unnegotiable because of accident etc.
insulates coaches and players from potential harm and threats enroute and on the field
with so many nut cases out there a heavy police presence deters nutcases from executing a threat
gmahoney,
Yup, you can do online http://www.etickethawaii.com .
No worries.
Kazz, err Kevin, I’ve purchased single seats before on that site, I will try it on Monday. Mahalo.
Anybody have problems with Windows 7 on their laptop?
My cursor keeps jumping to another location on the screen, making it difficult to post photos on my blog.
I am using an Acer Netbook, which is smaller than a laptop. But my sister has a similar problem on her laptop (I don’t know what brand).
I use the Acer netbook primarily when I travel.
At home, I use a desktop PC (Dell) which works fine with XP software.
We followed the (escorted) team bus in Alabama.
Breezed through that traffic.
All we were thinking was: Roll, Tide, roll.
Gma,
I can’t even remember how I bought my season tickets to start with years ago, pretty sure I called since it was new to me and better to have a live person on the phone.
Just a thought/suggestion.
#262–Would I call the Stadium office or UH?
#261,
I want to say that Alabama spends a ton of money on travel…much much more considering they don’t usually travel that far to get to games.
And when they came to Hawaii..I think they paid for police escorts and those big comfy tour buses. I remember seeing the buses and police.
I would think that police would volunteer standing by coach Mack. I mean the chance to be on the field “in the huddle” sorta. That would be so cool.
They might even have to do a lottery system because so many officers would want that chance.
gma,
Call UH ticket office. 956-4482. Open at 8am on Monday.
#261,
Oh wait, Alabama provided police escorts for the Hawaii bus? Nice of them.
I know at the Sugar Bowl they had a decked out bus w/ police escorts as well. The day after I saw the Ohio State bus with police as well coming in for the National Championship game.
Oh, good for bama.
Don’t think people “volunteer” to do things anymore.
I think officers who work on game days receive special-duty pay.
#267,
If you got the money for it…=)
#268,
Yeah all the police you see get that special duty pay.
that’s what she said…
Checked my notes. Drew Loftus arrives Aug. 1.
I’ve always thought of TCU being the “little guy” the mid-major program that I cheered for when they played Wisconsin because they were kinda playing for all mid-majors.
But I just dug up this article and it shows the TOP 10 football spending programs who were bowl bound in 2010.
TCU is only $2-4 million behind Wisconsin, Arkansas, S. Carolina, and Florida spending $20,600,000 for their football program. “Little” program on a big budget.
1. Ohio State, $31,763,036
2. Alabama, $31,118,134
3. Notre Dame, $29,490,788
4. Auburn, $27,911,713
5. LSU, $25,566,520
6. Florida, $24,457,557
7. South Carolina, $22,794,211
8. Wisconsin, $22,041,491
9. Arkansas $22,005,014
10. TCU $20,609,361
What’s Ohio State’s net total, factoring in tattoo discounts?
Amount the BCS Top 25 spent on recruiting for the 2009-2010 school year.
Sorry that the formatting came out all ugly.
1 Auburn $1,129,984.00
2 Oregon $844,235.00
3 TCU $438,422.00
4 Stanford $754,689.00
5 Wisconsin $473,897.00
6 Ohio State $676,966.00
7 Oklahoma $1,010,570.00
8 Arkansas $1,187,216.00
9 Michigan State $677,958.00
10 Boise State $158,355.00
11 LSU $741,762.00
12 Missouri $596,738.00
13 Virginia Tech $625,207.00
14 Oklahoma State $414,655.00
15 Nevada $216,920.00

23 Florida State $581,923.00
24 Hawaii $272,078.00
25 UCF $354,264.00
Gratz to Pepa and Mel!
#274,
Interesting to see Ohio State spending so little on recruiting. Maybe they use other incentives like tatoos and free cars. lol.
Never believed in that whole “playing for the little guy stuff”. I might have believed it a little, but never bought into it.
I remember when people were cheering for Fresno State to win the CWS, for me I was like “WHY?”
If so-called mid-majors get big time wins against BCS programs, what does it do really for other mid-majors? NOTHING. In public perception??? NOTHING.
Fresno State won the 2008 CWS, not the WAC, not UH, just FSU.
Boise State won several BCS Bowls, NOT the WAC, not UH, just BSU, BUT!!!! We did get a share of that mooohlah so a little different.
#278,
I kinda agree with except when it comes to say the MWC and our hope to get that AQ status.
You want every single team in the MWC to win all of its OOC games. When they get to in-conference play it doesn’t matter. But the computer polls place a lot of emphasis on that OOC w-l record from what I have been reading.
The MWC lacks in only 1/3 criteria for BCS AQ status. The overall strength of the conference. The bottom fish are just ranked too low. So if the bottom teams could pull themselves up and win OOC games it would help with those numbers. They don’t need to be ranked in the top 25 or the top 50 per se..they just can’t be ranked in the bottom 15-20 etc.
In this sense I always cheer for conference teams when they play against a BCS team or whatever. But it pretty much starts and ends there for me.
The one that really got to me was when people were actually having debates a few years back about whether or not one should cheer for Boise (being a Hawaii fan) because if they went undefeated Boise would go to the BCS and we would get money.
Wtf seriously lol.
Howzit folks!
Told my wife she should get a headstart shopping for school clothes for the kids. Of course, I had an ulterior motive. After they leave and I mow the lawn, its hours on hours of NCAA Football 12 until they get back! 😉
Oh, who is this Herman Frazier people are railing about? Meh, nevermind…
GIGI-Hawaii You probably already know this, but here it is anyway. Don’t forget to ask for Emergency Exit seats when you check in at the airport. There is more leg room.
empty, hubby already reserved seats near the exit but I don’t know if they are the ones with lots of leg room.
thank goodness it will be a short flight — less than an hour.
hope all goes well.
A friend of mine just posted on her blog that they have had so much trouble with ALASKA AIRLINES, changing their schedule and even transferring them to Delta.
never fly Alaska Airlines.
Hope hubby doesn’t get any calls from his office when we are on vacation.
I really want him to forget about work, but knowing him, he probably told his boss and co-workers where we will be staying.
Learned A LOT today about the legal issues surrounding the Aloha Stadium site and passed it along with the contact info to Stephen. Just to let you know one small fact – the lead state agency is the Department of Land and Natural Resources – not the Department of Accounting & General Services even though the latter is the one under which the Stadium is listed.
Off to work – see you all late tonight or early tomorrow night.
Congratulations to Laupepa and Melila!
Hope Blaze gets better soon.
Didn’t notice J.R. Abad the other day, but saw Joey Iosefa.
Interesting article about how there may not be any money coming after next year for the necessary repairs at Aloha Stadium.

Gigi, you need to take away hubby’s cell phone and tell hotel that you are not accepting any calls, if you want a quiet holiday vacation. That is what I do, when hubby and I go on vacation.
Need to bring super glue to the Colorado game. When the stadium starts rocking and the rust scales start to fly I may have to do some quick repairs.
Need to bring super glue to the Colorado game. When the stadium starts rocking and the rust scales start to fly I may have to do some quick repairs.
Laura, that’s one way to get fired.
Gigi, why, he is suppose to be on vacation, or is this not a vacation.
he still has to be accessible.
what if they cannot find a document he was working on?
back in 1997, we vacationed in New York City.
believe it or not, his boss called hubby up about work-related stuff.
guess what, he will probably reach us when we vacation in Europe next year!
good grief.
Mooooo!
Gigi, hate to say it, but if that is the case, hubby is not doing his job. My hubby makes sure that when he goes on vacation, or if anything happens to him, things will go on without missing a beat. Let me tell you he holds a very high position in the federal gov’t here, in the 50th State.
anybody seeing harry potter?
hubby reserved a ticket for the afternoon show tomorrow.
Gigi, unless your hubby is the President of the United States, he does not have to be that accessible. Even Coach Mac is not that accessible when he does go on vacation, I am quite sure.
Gigi, another thing, if your hubby’s boss feels that your hubby is that important that he has to contact your hubby while he is on vacation, then your hubby is way, way, under paid.
Gigi, I will be praying your vacation will be a lovely, quiet one.
well, let’s hope so.
i hope it rains
Gigi, which route will you be taking to get from Hilo to Kona, the south, north, or Saddleback, route?
It’s called turnover. Before you go on vacation, meet with your counterparts and immediate supervisor and go over the work you are performing and where it can be found. Your boss should know your work assignments. All work documents should be centralized in a drive, folder or work area on the server or individual PC’s as outlined by company procedures. The boss or someone should have admin rights in case your work is password protected so he can have access if needed.
If not then the company has poor security management and poor work related policy and procedures.
i guess we will drive along the coast. not sure.
blah blah blah
can you tell I am very tired?
Yeah, J-LO does rock!
Got anything bad to say about her Kazz???
I’ll make you tap out! LOL BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
And also, “It’s Electric!”
Nope, can’t tell. Typical reaction from you when you don’t want to hear something.
J-Lo is in her 40s.
Kazz is 28.
need i say more?
Looks like I gotta pay Mo a visit one day. The players are looking good.
Anyone know if Forciers transcripts arrive?
Cute pic of Mo pushing his daughter in the stroller.
I guess she keeps him grounded despite his accolades.
So what? Age makes what?
He has 50 lbs. on me and I’m nearly twice his age. I’ll still tap him out. LOL BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
around 56 yrs old? you’re a spring chicken.
BTW, Kazz, hope to see you at the t-gate. Got your letter about the booster club so I’ll re-up then. Gotta support the girls and all the efforts you guys put forth.
so what are you guys doing home on a friday night?
I said nearly…
Hey DPK and JM####, Arya rules too!
Playing Rock Band with the boy. Enjoying family life.
Howzit homey!! Long time no see. Yep, methinks Arya is my favorite character on the show. Imp is a close second.
Hubby is on a flight to Anchorage on Alaska Air. A 6-hr flight in a 737 with every seat taken? Can you say “sardine can”? 😈
BTW, in about a week and a half, we will be boarding the ship formerly known as the Pride of Aloha on a cruise to the Bahamas. Looking for advice on which shore excursions to consider. Going to Nassau & Freeport. papajoe2 has already imparted his wisdom.
sheesh!
Alaska Airlines plane couldn’t fly so friend waited 4 hrs at SF to board Delta.
After 4 hrs, Delta had mechanical problems so told friend to go to another gate.
after waiting there, Delta changed their mind and told friend to wait at still another gate.
now finally he is in the air. Will be 2.5 hrs late arriving in HNL tonight.
jm, hope all is well with AA.
friend said AA had so many last minute changes in schedule when AA flew them to Yellowstone last month.
[…] PPV announcement expected soon – The Warrior Beat| UH football … […]
madeinhawaii
Happy Anniversary!!! Mahalo for stopping by at Petals & Beans
Texas Forever…
🙁
Gigi, do not use AA to signify Alaska Airlines, AA = American Airlines. Alaska Airlines = ASA.
Gigi, need to watch out Kazz likes older women.
Hmmmm…the IPCop is showing multiple personalities from the same address….hmmmm…very interesting developement.
All airlines have glitches.
jm#### – Funny how the book describes Arya and how she looks in the series is way different. Maybe not way different but different. In fact many characters are portrayed in the tv series a little differently.
I guarantee gigi has nothing to worry about kazz.
No such thing as the IPCop.
daughter gave me a miller lite to drink.
not bad, but cant beat a corona.
i bet Al is a beer connoisseur, tho, bet he would know.
Miller Lite sucks!
lol homey
should i dump it down the drain and open a corona??? should I?
Gigi, so are you wide awake now. 🙂
Gigi, #344, YES, YES!!!!!!
corona is muuuuuch bettah.
Hand check!
fyi folks. i saw brstuz on the northshore today with a girl. he looks enormous. must be 185, 190 of muscle. my son wanted his autograph, but brs seemed to be into some girl at the time. he looks like he is 6’1 . he cut his hair too. plenty tats!
jm
Flight to AK is 5 hrs. Time difference makes it look like 6.
Dump the Corona too!
d1shima has 185-190#’s of muscle.
homey…good to hear from you!
BG – What?
BG – 5 hours looks like 6?
bg – his itinerary says flight time is 6 hrs. HNL-ANC 2100-0500 (2 hrs time difference)

My sister and “recently-made-21-yrs. bored nephew” (from Seattle) is coming to visit for a week at the end of August. Staying 8 nights. Sis’s plan: go beach once in a while (that was brother’s plan last year too and he, wife, and mother-in law came over to eat every night and stared at the walls until 2100– sometimes they came at lunch 👿 ). Mom cooks and I’m constantly fuud shopping. Mom figures one of us has to sleep on the floor at home.
Mom’s numba 1 son is adamant… throw everyone on the Pride of America cruising the islands that week. Everyone has a bed, entertainment is free, mom don’t cook, I don’t food shop, sis can hit the beach daily (except Hilo) and nephew can do his 21-year old thing all night in relative safety. Phew!
I am included at the last minute for a price break and bunch of bennies. 😐 Anyway, I’ll be cruising from August 27 and returning September 3 …rolling off the ship in plenty of time for the tailgate and game. But probably won’t be thinkin’ about fuud…
Anyone want to join me? Contact your travel agent or book online. No need passport (ID sufficient).
Pride of America. August 27, 2011.
Congrats to Pepa and Percy.
As many of you know I think that a pay-for-play system might be in the works near in the future. Personally I don’t like it but I think these big time schools will eventually get what they want. They usually do right? =(
ESPN did a story that states that Title IX might in fact be a good road block to establishing such a system.
Here is the article.

The Dictionary websites are some of the best and easiest ways to learn new languages. I use the dictionary websites to learn canadian. It sure takes the dificulutly out of learning a new langague when I use a dictionary. Plus I understand better the meaning of what I type. I thank god for the dictionary.

What happened to good ‘ol toys like dominos? I think that dominos pizza ruined it for everyone.
Disney is one of the best motion picture, or animitated picture companies in the entire world. Never has a company been so successful of capturing the things that matter to children and put them on screen so well. Kudos to Disney and disney products. Well earned.
Dillards is a fantastic place to shop. They have everything you need, and everything you could ask for or want. I even do a lot of my shopping at dillards.com.

It really is terrific that your website has a community that would not feel the need to yell “FIRST” each time they observe a new write-up.
Never thought blogging could be soo fun and interesting. Man you know how to do it brother.
Hello – Really good looking web site, just looking about some of one’s pages, it appears to be a fairly attractive platform you are using right here. I’m currently using WordPress to run a few of my web web sites but seeking to change one of those over to a platform exactly the same as yours just for a trial run. Anything in specific you’d recommend about it?
Hi there! This is kind of off topic but I need some guidance from an established blog. Is it very difficult to set up your own blog? I’m not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty quick. I’m thinking about setting up my own but I’m not sure where to start. Do you have any tips or suggestions? Many thanks
I as well as my friends were reading the nice suggestions on your site and so then I had a terrible feeling I never thanked the web blog owner for those tips. These women ended up absolutely warmed to learn all of them and have quite simply been having fun with those things. Many thanks for really being simply helpful and then for considering this form of important information most people are really desperate to understand about. My personal honest regret for not expressing appreciation to earlier.
I am not sure where you are getting your information, but good topic. I needs to spend some time learning much more or understanding more. Thanks for great info I was looking for this info for my mission.
Hello there! Would you mind if I share your blog with my facebook group? There’s a lot of folks that I think would really enjoy your content. Please let me know. Many thanks
Thank you, I’ve been looking for info about this subject for ages and yours is the best I’ve discovered so far.
I haven’t checked in here for ages mainly because I thought it absolutely was getting dull, however the last small number of posts are actually high quality so I guess I will add you back to my daily bloglist. You have earned it my friend.

I would like to thank You for this good article and please allow me to have the opportunity to show my satisfaction with HostGator web hosting. They have professional and instant support and they also offer some HostGator discount coupons.
Ever since I left a comment on this internet site I look to be getting a enormous amount of unsolicited mail, have you made available my e-mail to somebody or something?
I have come to understand that charges for online degree pros tend to be a great value. For example a full 4-year college Degree in Communication from The University of Phoenix Online consists of 60 credits from $515/credit or $30,900. Also American Intercontinental University Online comes with a Bachelors of Business Administration with a whole education course feature of 180 units and a tuition fee of $30,560. Online degree learning has made obtaining your degree much simpler because you can easily earn your degree from the comfort in your home and when you finish working. Thanks for all the tips I have certainly learned from your website.
The blog was how do i say it… relevant, finally something that helped me. Many thanks
Not a bad post,in fact really fine.but I really miss that you didn’t express your opinion in detail, but its ok you just have different approach to writing.
I see the youthful Peaches Geldof, changing tack a little here, has shed a startling amount of weight just recently. No-one appears alarmed about this but I have to wonder, given her family history of perhaps over-indulgent behaviour, whether this amiable enough young lady is as well as she might be. I do hope she is.
Very interesting points you have noted , thanks for putting up. “It is seldom that liberty of any kind is lost all at once.” by David Hume.

Thanks for your useful article. Other thing is that mesothelioma cancer is generally caused by the breathing of fibres from asbestos fiber, which is a carcinogenic material. It truly is commonly found among employees in the structure industry with long contact with asbestos. It’s also caused by moving into asbestos protected buildings for a long time of time, Genetics plays a huge role, and some individuals are more vulnerable for the risk as compared with others.
Thank you ever so for you article post.Really thank you! Will read on…

Unquestionably believe that which you said. Your favorite reason seemed to be on the internet the easiest thing to be aware of. I say to you, I certainly get annoyed while people think about worries that they plainly don’t know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and defined out the whole thing without having side-effects , people can take a signal. Will probably be back to get more. Thanks
Great website! I am loving it!! Will come back again. I am taking your feeds also
