For those wondering what side of the field we will be on. Bobby Curran said that WAC rules required home teams to be on the opposite side of the press box.

The MWC however only recommends but not requires the home team to be on the opposite side of the press box.

Curran said expect Hawaii to be on the visitors side on Saturday.

do u have any recruiting news?

Hawaii will be on the same side as the press box (makai).

That’s the good thing about watching the game on television. We get to see all sides.

So, the visitor side is now the home side.

#13 ST,

But how is the chicken in the gov’s box? That’s more important haha.

ST, did you see the Five-0 crew guy open two bottles of water and pour it into a bowl for neighborhood dogs? I was thinking, wow! the dogs are getting better treatment than the humans. Such is life. It is off to work I go…

follow on to ST’s post about Hawaii 5-0 filming – dang, their lights are so bright it makes day out of night!!

Midori was concerned, but a nice cop waived her on at the film site!

Chances are that we will see ST on Hawaii Five-0, watering the yard.

Thanks Gigi…

I going cheer for WarriorNY in addition to my fav Scotty Nguyen on the WSOP.

Thanks Stretch & PowderPuff for letting me be spotlighted… Thanks Na Koa Mike for the link…

nice…warriorny!

here i thought you were an old guy.

oops.

go warriors!

IWWTHM,

Haha, thanks1

i always thought that mike andrade would be the sleeper of the year.

all he needs is to get up to snuff on the defensive schemes and he’ll play faster.

he reminds me of the greatest defensive lineman ever to play for the warriors…levi stanley.

Too bad about Salas….Reports are that he was released today from the Patriots….

Tsai – Psy – Gangnam style.

Good morning Tsaikos!

Nice bio, WarriorNY!

Puppies need to leave North Shore about 3am, since the bridge will be closed… 😈 🙄

GO WAHINE!

GO WARRIORS!

It the Turtle Bay employees go on strike this week, Ault will have at least one distraction.

Ault and the ‘pack can go the other way and take the H-3, if they smaht.

wait a minute, you’re right! They were voting last week – what was the outcome of that? Maybe Local 5 will find a way to tell UNR not to stay at Turtle Bay too. Awwww Stretch, I know you were looking forward to seeing Rolo in the box…I guess we’ll see. Maybe you should move your seat to the South Endzone side. 🙂

PP,

Please see my post #37

jojo,

Tell you sister, it’s time think outside of the box. Take family pictures in a more natural environment… a family-oriented environment… like a tailgate party… or a football stadium…

ST:

she says a real live HPD type officer!!

that deal to get into the MWC still burns me.

On a saturday, Turtle Bay to Kaneohe to Halawa is not a fast short cut. Hour half minimum.

If its pouring like today on the Eastside, the Waikane bridge could overflow 🙂

WarriorNY:

nice picture – how far did you advance in the poker tournament?

What “town” on Molokai? My UH roommate grew up in that “pineapple” community on top of the hill looking towards Oahu.

ST, can you tell us any more about the detail today RE Daley’s sponsorship by a dairy company? I wouldn’t have thought that was possible under NCAA rules.

Don’t Nike and Under Armour sponsor? Don’t see why a dairy can’t.

hawkpeter, i am assuming that was a joke, in regards to the sponsorship. say, instead of his weight gain being due to CytoSport (muscle milk and cytomax), his weight gain is due to Meadow Gold. milk and juice.

Now if that sponsor uses that player in a commercial endorsing the product then you are crossing the sideline out of bounds.

questions are useful because it’s not a statement of fact, but asking for help from others who are more knowledgable than me.

Someone on the WSN message board claims the fight this past Saturday was really just rowdy military folks back from deployment getting into it with each other.

I dunno..

I suggested years ago that the stadium cease alcohol sales during the halftime and that the security with the assistance of HPD or sheriffs monitor DUI-like checks at the entrances to stop people that appear to be too drunk to enter the game.

WarriorNYC,

Great write up. I was left with 2 questions after it though.

1: What is the best finish you have had in the poker world tour?

2: Is that what you do for a living?

#69 ST…Now now…the tailgates usually don’t get started to at the earliest Friday….LOL

What’s up with the low ticket sales for the football game this week? I was reading on another blog that ticket sales are down from last weeks game against Lamar. Is that true? What’s up with that?

#89…Kevin…you forgot, “no mo nuff time for drink b4 da game.”

Don’t forget, the game is not on PPV. It is on regular cable NBC Sports Network (regular cable ch 19, digital ch 200-something?)…..

H5-0. If the crew is nice, how come that veterans tour operator made hu-hu about something that happened at Punchbowl? Articles or letters to the editor was in the Tizer for several days.

Pitino was an assistant or grad assistant, and got promoted to interim coach for several games at the end of the season after everyone else got fired because on the NCAA violations. Something happened and now he doesn’t mention his time in Hawaii nor list it on his resume.

What music were they going to play when the team walk in? I noticed the band didn’t play the H5-0 theme… how come no complaints? JJ did the same thing (changed the music), and plenny complaints… also no cheerleader on the surf board…

Ah yes, today’s reminder of how the WAC got snookered. Makes the Wonder fiasco seem so petty.

Where can we watch the game online?

#53 Jojo

Tell the photographer to photoshop you in :). Enjoy the game with the rest of us fans.

Some family members so lolo to schedule family functions on football Saturdays.

Pomai 38-28, Ault still winless at Hawaii vs the Warriors

#77, spot on comment. I agree that someone like Meadow Gold is sponsoring UH Athletics and providing POG and milk products.

It looked like the participants of the fight at Aloha Stadium were military…The police ended up NOT arresting any of the combatants, although they we both drunk and disorderly. I suggest they has some military police at the games do deal with these folks or at least, report them to their COs. I’m sure the military doesn’t want any bad publicity or their soldiers to promote ill-will in the community. I hope some of the military brass watches the You Tube video and address the situation with the participants.

ST,

Wings…. That was an awesome show!

They should cordon a section for the inebriated. If someone is found inebriated, they should be escorted to that area to sober up, someone comes to pick them up, or to sit until the game is over.

I’m reading on some sports blogs that Greg Salas has just signed on with Patriots practice squad….which is a good thing for Salas.

Many mahalos Tom K for the tickets to the SDSU game.

From a former players perspective:

I attended Warrior practice yesterday. What a difference a year makes. Players ran from station to station at the sound of the horn (warning: do not stand by the timer at practice when he toots the horn), timed segments were intense in terms of work, Tommy has them doing plyometrics to decrease injuries, coach’s had the players on task for the entire segments. The put it bluntly, the practice ran like clockwork. How refreshing!!!

I don’t Nevada is going to get the kind of yardage in there past games. This Hawaii defense is going to carry this team. Me likes what I have seen so far from the first two games. Remember USC could not run against Hawaii.

Jojo…I agree. Tell your fam to take pictures next to the beautiful waters of Pearl Harbor…then stay for lunch….. 🙂

If tickets sales for the upcoming game has been slow, I am not surprised…that’s how Hawaii fans are. I do believe that if the defense shuts out or comes close to shutting out Nevada and special teams looks like they did against Lamar, more people will start to fill seats. Hawaii fans are funny that way. The enjoy the points on the board, but they really like the team with a stout defense, especially against an opponent who supposedly has the “weapons” to pile it on. This is an important game for the program.

Hawaii loves defense as we saw during the Tomey era. Not taking anything away from Coach’s offense as I know it will come around and be quite exciting (something the Tomey era struggled with).

Just be patient and watch the picture start to take form. Coach knows what he is doing and I for one trust the product he is putting on the field.

Maybe Perry and Price can play some bridge songs this week, like”

“Bridge Over Troubled Waters” (Simon Garfunkle)

“Burning Bridges” (Kelly’s Heros)…

Btw, I sent an email to Carl Clapp and Coach Chow suggesting that UHAD send out a thank you message email to all students/faculty for attending the game.

My suggestion didn’t fall on deaf ears! 🙂

The following was sent out today.

——

Aloha UH Manoa students:

There were many things that were pleasing about our football team’s home-opening win last Saturday, but none was more gratifying than the 1,803 UH Manoa students who turned out to cheer on the Warriors. Thanks so much to those who came!

The students were enthusiastic, spirited and made their presence known by waving pompons and rally towels, while cheering loudly. Now, that’s the type of atmosphere we need at all of our home games, so the team plays its best and everyone gets to experience a top-notch collegiate football environment.

Please take full advantage of the free bus transportation from campus to Aloha Stadium and the ease of simply showing your valid UH Manoa identification cards in order to enter the stadium at Gates 1, 7 or 8.

Three thousand (3,000) green and white pompons will be distributed in the student sections before the game. Also, UH Manoa students will have the chance to compete in the on-field “Quarterback Challenge” and win a Vacations Hawaii Trip to Las Vegas during the first timeout of the fourth quarter (register pre-game at Gate 7).

This Saturday, we play our inaugural Mountain West Conference game at 4:30 p.m. against a tough Nevada squad on national television. Please come and support the team, while grabbing some television time for yourself as part of a UH student section that is going to demonstrate to the country the passion and pride of “Warrior Nation.”

Mahalo,

Norm Chow

Head Football Coach

dang.

gonna call my granddaughter who just started UHM last month and get her butt in da stadium student section. Thanks for the post 126.

Thanks Coach Chow and Mr. Clapp!

Goooooo Warriors. 😀

Ipuman, 5-0

Haha… Thanks… If you got the connections, let me know… 🙂

Wow, so many nice comments out there… Thanks a lot everyone…

Tsai on the radio next.

Tell me that’s not Koamahu on the breaking news of the SA that was sentenced to 20 years for check forgery and must pay for implants. Tell me.

I liked as much as you will obtain carried out proper here. The comic strip is attractive, your authored subject matter stylish. however, you command get bought an nervousness over that you want be handing over the following. ill without a doubt come further earlier again since precisely the same nearly very continuously inside of case you shield this increase.

Jojo:

If you say this: “Must be cuter than me”…

Then you no need say this: “Homey need not apply.”

About the alcohol sales at the stadium: i’ve been to Big 10/Pac 10 (back then) football games where there are a TON of drunks in the crowd. You’ve never seen so many people taking swigs from hidden flasks full of hard alcohol. I’ve even seen the extreme of hiding booze in a ziploc baggie to thwart the metal detectors. People will always find a way to get hammered if that’s what they want to do, regardless of the stadium being “dry” or not.

GO WARRIORS!!!

Really wishing I could be at this weeks game, Go Warriors !!

#142 Jack Flash….and like one of the posters on Reardon’s story said, “At 8.50 a beer, are people really getting hammered simply by drinking in the stadium?” I think most of the buttheads who get all superman in the stadium because of too much booze get hammered before they’re even in the stadium…or at least close to it.

I for one don’t buy beer in the stadium simply because for $8.50, I can almost buy a 12 pack at Foodland…..

Didn’t know they sell parking stalls at the Stadium Mall.

Hubby had to park illegally in order to buy a sub from Subway prior to the game.

#146 – do you know how hard it is to maintain your buzz after walking into the stadium and to your seat without buying a drink inside the stadium? plus, most of the fights occur after the 1st quarter – you rarely see a fight near the beginning of the game. i guarantee that it’s the alcohol sales inside the stadium that cause the fights much more than alcohol consumed in the parking lot.

IWWTHM: That was a great letter to the students from Coach Chow. Good for you to make the suggestion to him.

With the conversion of UH Webmail (hosted by UH and really antiquated) to a gmail platform, more and more students are using their UH mail as their primary email. What does that mean? They are actually reading their UH mail accounts.

This was a just a small yet free method of getting the “mahalo” out to the students.

Brad Jones apparently took the lead on this. I didn’t initially email him but I received a reply from him and Carl.

#150 Aaron..that may be…but I know guys who pound maybe 8 – 10 beers before going into the stadium…and they seem pretty toasty during the first quarter…and some people I know, I’m not naming names, begin tailgating and imbibing around 9:00 a.m. LOL

All I’m saying is that drinking 6 beers in the stadium would cost a cool $51 plus tip if you are so inclined. That’s a large chunk of change to get plastered at a game versus buying 4 12 packs for that price.

Hey IWWTHM…..Where were you this past Saturday??? How come you didn’t stop by the T-gate???

Got to be ready to rotate defensive players in just about every first down… Hopefully we don’t give them too many of those.

James,

I think the combination of zero alcohol sales inside plus having HPD work with stadium ushers and security at the entrance gates to do a visual check of people that may be too drunk to enter will cut back issues big time.

Banning alcohol on the premises in the parking lot is too Nazi-esque and only punishes the 95% of people that do drink and can handle their liquor and or know what their limit is.

No mention of women getting into fights during the game?

Don’t they drink, too?

Hmmm.

If beer sales were so inconsequential (sp?) to the Stadium Authority, they would have made the call to simply be like most other college venues and cut sales completely. Apparently, the sponsorship from beer companies and the sales are just too profitable for them to act otherwise.

It really boils down to dollars.

I mean the risk for bad publicity, unhappy spectators and a potential lawsuit does not appear to be enough for them to cut the beer. It has to be the dollars.

Could it be that in Hawaii, folks just dodoknowhowfoact when they drink? IF people are getting hammered at other stadiums (pac12 included), why is it that UH got more fights in the stands? Maybe we have more stupid people in Hawaii? Beefing has been such a part of the culture of Hawaii. “legal beefs” in the MMA ring are some of the most popular venues in the islands. Beefs is as part of the local Hawaii experience as is cold rice and teri chicken. It’s not a new phenomenon either. I remember my older uncles telling me about how boxing matches were some of the greatest events of days gone by. Not to mention the drunken brawls that would also happen at social dances and other events. I am not making no excuses because I’m sick of it too. Beefs in the stadium stands are LAME. Those beefing are LAME. No mo respect.

BIK

Random question.

Why do women (apparently wannabe’s, too) shave their eyebrows off only to draw them back on? Crooked or uneven, no less.

A couple of years ago one of my girls came to school with a different “expression” on her face every day. Angry, questioning, lost, happy, surprised, . . . based solely on the positioning of her hand drawn eyebrows. It was difficult not to laugh and to figure out what she was really feeling that day. One day she had different colored brows because she ran out of one color and had to use a different pencil(?) for the other.

jojo . . .

Got carried away plucking, waxing, Nair, shaving?

Get people fighting in the stands, get people telling others to sit down and be quiet at a sporting event. Get people knitting and reading the newspaper. People quiet on 3rd down when we are on D. Get people letting their goddamn kids run around up and down the stairs and various venues and throwing trash over the railings, get people making house on the front lawn façade of a stadium and they are not even part of the home team….

Pretty sure no one here watches “Its Always Sunny In Philadelphia”, but they could make a four part episode to try to capture the stupid diversity of some Hawaii people that seem to be awkward in public settings.

Looks like John Smith is filing for bankruptcy.

Not going to be fun being one of his creditors.

Another day of boring and never ending pointless meetings. They must call meetings simoly to justify their positions.

Dang.

We are a gaggle of volunteers and starting a new scheme in our community. Your website provided us with valuable information to work on. You have performed a formidable job and our entire community can be thankful to you.

Hey! Wats wrong with PDX? 👿

…actually, only ever spent a few nights in Portland Civic Center, several overnight stays near PDX, but mostly down the 99 and along the Oregon Coast (which is stunningly beautiful!)

Great memories…*tsigh*

Did I mention get casinos? 😈

If they going check fans for CWI (Cheering While Intoxicated) when they walking in why not put 4×4 beams for erryboddy to walk on while they approach the gate. If no can, no can!

D1,

Good beer in that part of the country tho. REAL beer. 😎

Except for the probability of giving up some big gains, the UH run defense should be stout. USC couldn’t run and don’t expect Nevada to do much better despite their stats. Right now the front seven appear to be the strength of the D. On O, given that this will be the third time they have played together, the coaches know what to tweak to make them better and we should see some new plays. Expect to see Will Gregory in the endzone a couple of times.

Madeinawaii, hope your warnings post on Woofpatsies hurry up offense

with 16 seconds between plays is taken seriously by both players and

coaches. With the Chow offense, they won’t get on the field…

Mrs. momo became Ms momo? 😯

Does Garret know about this? 😕

😮

🙄

chow should suspend every drunk student 4 games for being drunk at the games. and the ticket sale is low cause they have’nt proof anthing yet all they did was beat lamar from the oia white division. when they beat somebody then the ticket sale will go up.

Its best to participate in a contest for probably the greatest blogs on the web. I will advocate this website!

NC seems to taking UH in the right direction. I have not really got a feel for how the team will do playing our real competition, but he is moving in the direction where no matter what happens this season UH will win in the end. I feel like he is really prepping us for the big time.

el burro go hug warriorny…..warriorny wat u one english professor.?? no act high maka maka just cause you live new york you warriorwannabee.

manoa#1,

who said he was talking about you?

How am i a warrior wannabee?

This should be entertaining…

Glad to hear that the Patriots picked up Salas for the practice team. Go, Greg!

y wat u da blog security now.

GO WARRIORS!!!

Night, gang!

I just couldn’t go away your site prior to suggesting that I actually enjoyed the usual info an individual supply for your visitors? Is going to be back regularly in order to investigate cross-check new posts

Thank you for any other great post. Where else may anyone get that type of information in such a perfect way of writing? I have a presentation next week, and I’m on the look for such information.

Real “cute” of Hawaii News Now in their selective coverage of the fight last Saturday. They used footage of students having a beer on campus at the Manoa Gardens Bar as they covered the story.

The uneducated sees this in light of the story about the fight and might assume the UH Manoa students were involved…

Again… FALSE.

People that actually go to the games know exactly the demographic starting problems and a lot of them are old enough to the be the parents or uncles of students.

Kevin,

I saw your comment earlier about Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia… Eh, I used to love that show! I started watching after the Rocky IV vs. Million Dollar Baby Episode years ago. That one’s a classic!

Getting close to Saturday.

Looking to see Nick’s face.

Brudda gotta know we wish him

well any odda game but dis one. Ha!

Wonderful site. Plenty of helpful info here. I am sending it to several buddies ans additionally sharing in delicious. And obviously, thanks to your effort!

Real “cute” of Hawaii News Now in their selective coverage of the fight last Saturday. They used footage of students having a beer on campus at the Manoa Gardens Bar as they covered the story.

Kevin,

I saw your comment earlier about Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia… Eh, I used to love that show! I started watching after the Rocky IV vs. Million Dollar Baby Episode years ago. That one’s a classic!

Sadly, it’s only a matter of time before someone gets beaten to a pulp or worse at the hands of some alcohol fueled act of violence on Stadium grounds, resulting in the State gets its ass sued and having to pay up $$$ to the victim. People in positions of authority in Hawaii are really “hard head” often, and it takes some tragedy before something is done.

Howzit, everyone!

Ah… home game or Sam Boyd game, here comes the topic of banning alcohol sales in the stadium again!

All I know is… The only other stadium I went to for a NCAA football game was the Big House, and that stadium is dry. Sure, all kinds of drinking outside, but not a single lick of brew sold inside. And weird thing… people are actually still involved in the game! Although, I’m sure my friends wish they were drunk after Appy State came through.

And Wafan and Jojo… on the topic of eyebrows…

When I was stationed in Korea the second time, back in the late 80’s through early 90’s, there was this Korean comedienne named Kim Mi Hwa on this hilarious show… bossy as most Korean women are… with this huge, thick, furry, unibrow! Wish we’d taped some of it to watch these many years later.
