Wednesday's practice
Thanks again to Sen. Shan Tsutsui for being today’s chat guest.
* * *
• Tyler Graunke competed in team drills for the first time since suffering the hand injury. He has more zip on his passes, but still isn’t 100 percent. Although he now estimates he is up to 90 percent.
• The offensive line looks like this: LT Aaron Kia, LG Brysen Ginlack, C John Estes, RG Clarence Tuioti-Mariner, RT Keoni Steinhoff.
OL coach Brian Smith said LT Laupepa Letuli and LG Raphael Ieru will play a lot this weekend.
• RB Daniel Libre was out there, and expects to play this weekend.
• Look for WO Jovonte Taylor to get more snaps.
• David Farmer looks to be back in form. He even had a nice run off a draw. But that’s not his role. He’s mostly a blocking back.
• It appears RB Jake Heun will redshirt this season.
First!
glad to hear the farm dog is back.
gold, silver and bronze.
third
Tanks fo da updates Tsai brah!
heck in top 5
DPK:
Don’t call me, bra, you panty.
give up at least I hea
Was so looking forward to seeing Heun play this season. That’s ok, heal up, get stronger, and dominate next year.
hmmmm mebbe top 10?
Good to hear Tyler’s coming along. Otherwise, Inoke, you’re up man!
woohoo top 10
How is it that the Blog Host was able to get so much info today at practice without myki and sj being there acting as “spotters”?
d1 – ST actually worked today. He must be exhausted by now. Kinda cranky too because he called DPK a panty.
homey was the haps on friday you going be the dd.
was=what
Heun gonna be a good one for us.
homey,
That’s not “cranky”; that’s just fair and accurate reporting!
ST – you was talking about DPK when you mentioned to me that you don’t like getting your panties wet standing in the rain??
If he don’t know da difference between brah and bra, he shouldn’t even be mentioning panties.
koakane – Friday no can do.
Will not be able to attend the 10/4 Murphy’s outing but will make the 11/8 outing. Anyone planning to golf beforehand?
Is there gonna be a CC wif Terry Brennan on friday or what?.
we was thinking of having a long drive contest off the driving range afta the game.
DPK – I’m still waiting for A-Sports Pho cc.
koakane – I wonder if the gigi’s would like to enter that contest! We can see the hack attack in action! Since they’ll most likely not show up it should still be a highly entertaining contest! Just grip and rip!
Small talk: We knew going in that the defense and special teams was needed to step up big time and carry the team early in the season, but both of them have not been up to the task. This weekend is a huge game for the Warriors. Your most important game is always the next one, but this game is…well…enormous. And not only that, it’s really big. No matter what you call them, the special teams unit must respond. The defense must play up to championship level. And most importantly, the fans must show up…en masse…large…huge.
You are right haka.
I was watching that commercial…
“What is love?
Baby don’t hurt me
Don’t hurt me
No more”
So I bought a Diet Pepsi Max and drank it and now I can’t go to sleep.
haka,
as one who will be in attendance, I have done what it takes today at lunch to show up large and huge….urrrppp! Excuse me….
heheheh
How was the lunch at Camilla’s? Anyone skewered with chopsticks or a fork?
Huen redshirting works out. Farmers last year, and Jake can learn the system better this season
d1島,
You’re huge…fan that is. Cheer twice as loud and have double the fun. And by the way, I’m glad the urrrppp made it to the top!
Ronnie . . .
Thank you for going to the open house with, or without, your son! That little bit of extra effort on your part will definitely pay off huge for him this year and in the future.
I wish more parents would get involved with their kids’ education. We would not have nearly the number of problems we have everyday in our schools and society.
homey if fact we can name it after gigi. the hack, wack and smack long ball contest but gotta wear mu’u mu’u in order for win a prize. 😮
In addition to the obvious QB question, the key again will be the O-Line, especially since Dick Tomey said that his defensive ends are playing really well and his front 7 as a whole has been performing pretty well thus far. We need to protect the QB and have sustained drives ending in points……. Go Warriors.
Afternoon Tsaikos!
Good news that Letuli, Libre & Farmer will be back in action!
What’s the status of Wright-Jackson?
GO WARRIORS!
Just read this on the Tizer…guy must of imported some Zippys chilli
SOUTH CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — A West Virginia man has been charged with battery on a police officer for allegedly passing gas toward a patrolman. Jose Cruz, 34, of Clarksburg was also charged with driving under the influence, driving without headlights and two counts of obstruction.
Cruz was pulled over by South Charleston police Tuesday for driving without headlights. After failing field sobriety tests, Cruz was taken to the station for a breathalyzer test.
The criminal complaint says that as a patrolman was preparing the machine, Cruz scooted his chair over, lifted his leg, passed gas and fanned it toward the officer.
furrrippp…
I think the Brennans are going to be joining us at TJ’s on Friday.
Geez, after 13 straight hours of meetings and seminars I finally was able to catch up with the blog. The chat was interesting, wish I could have asked a question. I’m glad that the injured players are getting healed up, and hope that Blaze is better soon too. The key to the game could be the health of the OL, especially if there are any injuries at tackle.
I thought that this post was interesting on SH on UH’s recruiting of Manti Te’o:
3 prong:
SJ’s d-ends are very good.
And one of the DTs plays to the outside shoulder of the guard, which essentially makes him a pass-rusher, too.
And now I’ve got to work all night…I’ll check back tomorrow.
Howzit Gang…
Dunno if anybody know about dis yet….

Registrations will be coming soon so stay tuned!
Cost $60/mo
Tomey,
pray.
If Graunke ain’t 100% he shouldn’t play…we need a QB who can throw with no complications. San Jose St. is going to be relentless on the DLine. Coach Tomey will attack knowing our OLine is still not in sync yet… This will be a tough game but I feel our boys can get the W if they play all facets of the game competitively without giving up on themselves when things go bad. The team needs to start playing as a team and start trusting in each other…I feel this has been lacking…with as much Senior leadership we have on this team someone needs to step up and rally the troops. Need to get them focused for battle and have no fear, take care of business and leave it all on the field! C’mon Warriors, where your heart at?!?!
coach mack i think beginning to learn da importance of special teams placing adam leonard on it, though that’s taking ahuge chance 2. so sad about our handling of manti. didn’t have much of a shot from the beginning but to be the 28th to offer is extremely sad. and then the actions of gerke, don’t know if we need that.
All that Brah & Panty talk scared me away.
So did this am’s subject from Stretch and the “U know what”.
Must be the SJSU tension in the air.
Loose lips sink ships! As much as coach was trying to protect practice, we have a responsibility to keep the technicalities to ourselves on the blog.
We keep examining every minute detail of each players current health status and exposing more than we should. Remember, the opposing team has local boys who know how to get on the WB. They can easily determine how to man-up to their opponent, and exploit their weakness.
Hmmm..we need a Minister of mis-information. Any volunteers DPK?
Might not be a bad game to give Inoke some playing time. What, if anything, could Hawaii do to stop SJSU from playing an all-out pressure game for four quarters? You know _someone_ on the team or staff has a big red circle around Tyler’s right hand, and that’s a kinda scary thought.
It’s great that the Brennans are such huge fans of Hawaii. But, uh, why aren’t they watching Redskins games instead? I’d totally understand if they were on the east coast most weekends…
Well Kekoa, no one has to answer my question about offensive strategy then :P. But seriously, I’m sure the experts already know the answers as it is. It’ll come down to heart, determination, execution, and probably luck.
is the 11pm hoops game against Idaho State (whooohoooo!) part of the ESPN deal?
We really need our D to step up this game. I just know they have it in them to be even more awesome than last year. Hopefully special teams has improved to the point where the D feels more like they can “be ithemselves” and play on their own terms.
Bows4ever-
The Brennen has family on the SJSU coaching staff
Plus, they can’t get enough of us. :>
The 1 + 1 equation for a good reason to fly out here. Let’s take it. Once Colt becomes a starter, we lost Pops & Mom Brennen coming out here.
I heard Quintin Beaver has been moved to running back for this weeks game.
Doh! Oh yeah, I forgot about Colt’s cousin working with SJSU. But SJSU is the enemy, so it must be they…love…Hawaii… Which is great.
Who knows, the Brennans might actually come out to Hawaii _more often_ if Colt becomes “the guy” on the Redskins or elsewhere. Sure they won’t be around for the last third of the year or so, but there’s plenty of offseason and the possibility that Colt will buy a house here once he rakes in the serious dough.
TURF AT LAST!!! TURF AT LAST!!! TURF AT LAST!!!
THANK GOD ALMIGHTY!!! TURF AT LAST!!
🙂 ………. 🙄
Where’d ya hear that, haka? Talk about a big load at RB.
DPK,
Ooh, I bet you’re wondering how I knew
About our plans to make SJSU blue
With some other guy who never ran before.
Big as the two of us guys
You know the truth is more.
It took me by surprise I must say,
When I found out today.
Don’t you know that…
I heard it through the grapevine
Misinformation would be mine.
Oh I heard it through the grapevine,
Oh and I’m just about to lose my mind.
Honey, honey yeah.
DPK,
He might have heard that from Keahi.
DPK,
You own a bucket?
…wanna own a bridge?
….still wait for the Easter Bunny?
Oh, yah, Percy Harvin is transfering to UH and got a special excemption from the NCAA to start right away….
I also heard that the offense will line up with 4 wr’s and no slots in that Salas and Lane will actually be in the slot with Pollard and Avery wide and actual positons will be determined by who goes in motion.
EXCELLENT FIND Florida Ted! 🙄
haka must be a relative- he obviously was at practice this morning!
That Brah & Panty thing git everybody in a tizzie….
Bunchy and Punchy.
2 much info, IF it’s tru
d1島, it’s all relative.
Ok… if “haka” is being serious I think uhhh… maybe uhhh… delete these posts???
No offense to “haka”, buuuutttt yeah……
Actually, I had a media pass from that other media da kine that has no website.
Per another news website, the second bid protest over UH’s Ching Field was dismissed today. UH can now start construction on the Ching Athletic Complex and Ching/Cooke Field. Hopefully WassupDoc or tom mui will post later and give us the scoops.
Sorry, somehow I missed the Advertiser breaking news article about it. Click on my name for link.
The defense may be deploying the “25” or “2 bit” defense.
Kazz –
Tonight on L & L
Who B ?
haka,
Isn’t that particularly effective against the dollah-chree-atey offense?
d1島,
It suointinly is.
momotaro; that’s great news about the Ching/Cooke field deal, maybe now they can get it resurfaced by the end of Nov. or early Dec.
Whew!
Just got back from back to school night. I learned that Ian’s metal shop teacher played football for Hawai’i in the early 70’s (when June was a player). Pretty cool! I also realized that his English teacher is quite a character. She is much loved by her students – and is a very tough teacher.
MOMOTARO: Ching nursery filed its objection two or so days after the deadline. UH filed its Motion to Dismiss based on the late filing.
Hey! What happened to the blog? Are the techies messing with the colors again?
Could it be my style sheet? I see all blue, with every other posted comment and the “leave a reply” section in white boxes…
Three in a row…
hey i am back.
yah, i know who cares. thought i’d try a tsai opening line.
so tsai tells of a 90% graunke and robert reports a qb controversy.
what up?
and a haka tries to play with dpk’s mind.
pssst. actually dpk, i heard that they will line up in a “I” formation then run a few power running plays with ex-rugby guy adrian thomas. then shift out of the “I” in to 5wr formation with thomas the main target.
also, no be surprised that they go into the bone with inoke, libre, pilares, and farmer. the lone wr will be lwj running post patterns all day.
and then mouton will enter in the single wing formation.
oh the list is endless. they practiced for 6 1/2 hours today. tomw is closed doors at the stadium and friday at ford island air field.
are we having fun yet.
…nuff said.
Do I hear 4?
so:
IS IT SATURDAY YET??!!!
GO WARRIORS!!! ❗
7 down
8 UP
sorry ronnie baby!
p.s. thanks eh haka for the smoke screens today.
….
hey, i went to the wrong camellia today.
I knew I should have posted the Saturday stuff in a separate post! 😉
Al, I’m glad you’re back! 😀 Bummer about going to the wrong camellia.
Al,
You mean to say there’s a Camellia on the Darkside?
Aloha from the Bay Area! Not much time to read the pepah or the blog. Will have to wait till I get home.
GO WARRIORS!!!
Heck..my inside info is we are going to a wing -t… and Pilares is actually going to be QB ..and the O line and D line are going to switch..wow
Al,
What controversy does RK speak of?
Well I’ve been to quiet about this…
The TRUTH is that we’ll have our goalie switch with the guy that can hit the knuckle puck and ….
Oh wait.. that’s from a movie I think…
***too*** quiet
whoa…al…
For a moment there, I thought you were about to give away the BEEG secret lineup where Inoke is lined up as the RB. SJ should expect a trick play with Inoke blocking..side stepping to catch a quick screen and then passing across the field to Lane… but Inoke simply receives the a handoff and scampers for a first down.
Phew.. good thing it’s still under wraps… yeah?
Al:
One difference: Only one of us was at practice.
It’s going to be Graunke. He took most of the team reps today.
Quentin Beaver would be a huge surprise, especially since he was cut from the team.
ST:
Did the offense practice the “muddle huddle” enough that mebbe they can spring it on Tomey?
heh/heh
BEAVER CUT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!??!
WHAT????
ok… calm down…
Ok, I’m calm… but sad. 🙁
kazz,
no its CHAWAN CUT.
ok, nvm, going to sleep
Took some time to do a quick skim of today’s previous posts. Here is the situation concerning Ching/Cooke Field finances.
The money to renovate the field has been appropriated and released. Work on the project will begin immediately.
The length of time it will take to complete the project is dependent upon the manufacturer’s stock on hand. If enough is available to ship out immediately, it will be here within the next couple of weeks. If not, then it can take as long as a month to arrive.
Site prep work will take place while the artificial turf is on its way.
It will take about ten working days to install – and the bidder will work on Saturday if needed. The inspection and sign-off process will take another five working days or so.
Barring really rotten weather, the field should be completed in time for the last home game of the season at the latest.
Let’s have a celebration party when the Field is blessed.
Re the Ching Complex overall: The estimated total is $9.2 million. $5 million has come in as a gift. The Legislature has funded the field for $1.2 million and will spend about $300K less. This leaves a balance of an estimated $3.million. That can come from the Legislature in 2009 or 2010, foundation grants, a direct mail campaign, selling barbecued chicken, holding car washes, or redeeming HI-5 bottles & cans. The Ching gift will not be released until the entire sum is raised or commitments have been made.
***********
Regarding Aloha Stadium upgrades: Tomorrow’s Aloha Stadium Authority meeting has the following item on the agenda.
V. New Business- Discussion and Appropriate Action
B. Senator Fred Hemmings- Presentation on a public / private partnership for the development of public infrastructure to the stadium property in return for commercial consideration.
With respect to Aloha Stadium renovations and other capital projects, I urge you to contact your legislators – and candidates – during the campaign to support keeping the projects in the budget. Big caveat is that the investment market stabilizes between now and January.
Capital projects generate taxes and increase employment. None of us here is old enough to remember the WPA in FDR’s first term some 75 years ago, but that is what got the country back on its feet and prepared it to become major world power during WWII.
************************
T-Gate Recyling: Once again, we’ll provide recycling services at the T-Gate which includes taking your contributions from home as well. We’ll be donating the proceeds in the name of Tsaikos to Dole Middle School’s cross-country program under the supervision of Coach Alan Inaba to purchase shoes, uniforms, and event day meals.
Coach Alan and at least one of his students will be dropping by the T-Gate – more on that tomorrow or Friday – so those of you who are so inclined can take the time to see how your running skills are these days by challenging a 12 or 13-year-old.
All recycling programs will go to Coach Inaba’s program.
T-Gate Stuff: We’ll bring one pop-up tent, a 10 x 10 ft. tarp to put over the grilling areas in case of rain or too much sun, two folding tables & a table in a box, four chairs, a microwave w/power strip and extension cord, and several exceedingly large garbage sacks. DrDoc plans to arrive around 11 am because I will be helping with the set-up for the Sierra Club’s 40th Anniversary Party being held that night and will be catching a bus out to the T-Gate around 1 pm.
Don’t forget the island-wide Obama Rally tomorrow night at Kailua High School starting at 7 pm. Maya Soetoro-Ng and live music from John Cruz. This will be Maya’s last speech in Hawaii before heading to the mainland to campaign for her brother. MC is Emme Tomimbang – and, yes, there will be light refreshments.
Look for me as I will be on the parking crew. We’ll be “on the job” no later than 5:45 pm. Please don’t run me over.
X your fingers & toes – the Bishop Museum Board of Directors will vote tomorrow to transfer ownership of the Falls of Clyde to the Friends of Falls of Clyde. If that happens, then we will celebrate that on Monday, September 29
If you really want to eat some outstanding Mexican food and you are in Kane`ohe, try El Mariachi. It’s just slightly bigger than a hole-in-the-wall, but the food is authentic and reasonably-priced. It’s located in a small strip mall behind the Aloha Petroleum on the corner of Kamehameha Highway and Lilipuna Road – the Castle Professional Center is across the street.
.GO WARRIORS GO!!! GO WAHINE GO!!!
Slight correction: All recycling proceeds will go to Coach Inaba’s program.
Yay! Go Ralph!
Now, back to work…
Darn,
The beaver is out of the bag. Leave it to beaver. 🙁
It’s Graunke…;-) 😉 😉
Charter flight update:
I’ve had a preliminary discussion with Hawaiian Air on securing a charter to Las Vegas next year. The cost will probably be to prohibited for this venture.
The operating cost of a 767 is about $18,000 per hour. It’s about 5 1/2 hours from Honolulu to Las Vegas. So 11 hours total flight time with passengers. The catch is, they will not have the aircraft sit idle in Las Vegas. So they must re-position the aircraft back to Honolulu or whereever it is. This re-positioning is an added cost to whomever is charting the flight. So it’s another 11 hours of “ferry’ time. $18,000 X 22 hours is $396,000. There are 18 First Class seats and about 246 seats in coach.
This would be considered a “public” charter since we are not an official organization, thus we need to be bonded and pay some fees, which are substantial.
These stories are from Jon Wilner of the SJ Mercury – so some of you may want to ignore them.
Wilner: SJSU coach’s love for Hawaii continues….
Next up for SJSU: at Hawaii, 9:05 p.m. …
Good try duffer – I think you’ll have many Road Warrior Fans having different travel plans (WSU game, extended stays, stop-overs, etc.) that commercial is the only sensible transportation. Even without the additional “ferry time” R/T – the costs would only be on par w/ commercial airfares. Mahalo for your efforts. 😀
wafan – You were asking about a game in Seattle the other night? 9/10/10 @ UDub. You & Izzy are in charge or that one! 😀 😯 😆
duffer,
Thanks for checking into that. Now we know…
djmitcho – I’m also wondering if you’ve done any “scouting” for the Road Tsaikos regarding the 9/12/09 game/visit in Pullman? 😯 🙄 😀
d1島 – You and the Mrs. driving to the WSU and UNLV games next Sept? 😀
whoa…..back from dinner.
burger king or buffet?
burger king or buffet?
actually was gonna skip the dinner and do some work. half way through the work the stomach said, “skip dinner! wot! you kidding me!”
needless to say stomach won out with his cries of hunger as he was in pain.
oh, buffet won too. hey, its in the same place okay.
salad bar
fresh fruit
rice
stir fry noodles
sweet n sour pork
pot roast (to die for, really)
mussels
tempura bar w/ shrimp, ika rings da size of hawn bracelet, veg
miso shiru
dessert table featuring dobash, pineapple upside downcake, coco cake, and soft serve.
oh, and did i forget to mention sushi bar too. tobiko roll, spicy ahi, kogai roll, tako, ika, inari, maki, cali rolls, tamago, ahi, unagi, and my fav hamachi.
really only 25 bucks! cattle call!!!!
ps duffer next week we bring the boy to this place it won’t disappoint. maybe nanook will be back in town, too.
Hmmmmmm – It must be about 2800 miles, HNL-LAS. So at $3.80/gal, that’s $10.6k each way! Even if you carpool w/ four peeps, that’s over $5k R/T each! Hey – air travel is a bargain even at these inflated prices! 😀 😯 😆
the truth is ronnie i was just pulling your leg about the wrong camellia you see i am on the no kaoi isle.
and ltuh, no i do not venture to the darkside. its only for retirees and engineers.
Kekoa – replied to your email. So, where’s my coco puff? 😀
al – WHAT!?! You ate at the buffet for lunch AND dinner?!? 😯 🙄 😯
the truth is mr. tsai i only report what i see and what the little birdie whispers in my ears.
check out rob’s 10 oclock news please.
but, you do know that i have long learned that you mr. tsai is the truth. did i not hang that moniker upon you like two years ago when i first questioned you only to find out that you were the source of the truth, thus, calling you the truth. (bowing as i utter these words)
Top of the evening to da gang!
Doris, are you lurking? If get time, please call me (381-9334) and let me know if the National Guard ever got back to you. Thanks
brew…..come on now. i am not that good.
Duffer
Thanks for digging out the facts. Can’t make good decisions without da faks. Main thing is to put out there what we want to do…sometimes, what shows up is really amazing…
brew,
Thanks for doing the math on that one. I guess the Mrs. and I will wait until next month to start checking the airfares.
btw, reminded me (and I’m sure tommui will also recall) of JPL’s reply to Lazlo Toth’s letter about driving to Mars.
“At 55 mph, it would take about 8 million hours. That’s about 10 centuries – sounds like a good trip. Bon Voyage.” 😀
I wonder how whitey is doing “fishing” in Nevada? Anyone else think that LV and whitey could pass as brothers? 😯 😕 😀
Hey BG,
We can always sell portuguese sausage, sweet bread, coffee cakes, car washes and such to defray expenses! 🙂
so for all you old folks out there and jason….it is good to listen to the beatles once in awhile.
when is that last time you heard “day tripper”, “don’t let me down”, or “and i love her”?
brew808
I said the same thing over a year ago!
brew…….no.
tonight’s news
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vviYe844rS0
g’nite
If I Fell….
Just a quick observation. – Airfares were quite reasonable to the PNW this past month despite the inflated fuels costs. I think Sept. is a slow period after the Summer and “back-to-school” rush. Hopefully, that pattern will hold next Sept. and allow reasonable airfares to the PNW. Travelers will have to find low-cost routes to/from LV. 😀
d1…yah, that’s one of my fav too.
Wait – I’m asking too many questions! Which question(s) are you guys responding to? al says “no” and duffer says he “said the same thing” last year – regarding lv and whitey looking like bros? 😯 😀 😆
Oops – sorry. I didn’t mean to interrupt al and d1島 exchanging Beatle ballads to each other…. 😳 😆 😳
brew…next thing you will be saying is that lizk and gigi are sisters.
brew,
I’m pondering making the drive from PHX. Been chkg fares to Sky Harbor; big diff compared to LV.
Anyone done that drive?
Al,
This Boy. Don’t hear that one much
brew…here’s one for you.
“won’t please, please help me, help me, help me …..”
Hey, Kelli:
Lesson No. 1. Don’t lend your school books to anyone.
My eyes hurt. I’m filled with useless San Jose State trivia.
And tomorrow I get to collect more. I’ve got another phone interview. Hopefully, it will be better timing than today, when I had to do a phone interview on the Pali Highway.
muumuus….
Actually, there was that one instance when I made that mistake and caught plenty flack over it!!! 😀 😯 😆
d1島 – MeiLing lives (use to) north of there and did that drive all the time (I think). She’d be a good source to ask. 😀
listen do you want to know a secret………..?
ST – Do you have a BlueTooth wireless adapter? It’s now illegal to use a hand held cell phone AND to text message while driving in CA. But you knew that already…. 😀
okay, i heard that sjsu has a wealth of donors waiting to pound the program some new money but, the product has just not delivered.
I like this one….
hey d1島 – Re: your #134 post
That might be a nice limo/bus ride from PHX to LAS with las vegas-san driving or in-charge of the transportation! Probably good eats and a floor show too! 😀 😯 😆
Brew,
Thanks. I had e-mailed MeiLing about that and I’ll talk to her about it when she gets here.
Anyone know if she’s going to be here this week?
too bad mojo’s not around he would like this stuff.
my phone, for some reason, can’t send text messages.
i get a lot of incoming texts, but i can’t respond.
maybe it’s your service plan?
al, duffer,
sent you mail
I am sensing jealousy again….
and engineers have all night passes.
and engineers have all night passes. until the phone call comes…..
Text messaging ban starts in January 2009 in California.
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has banned motorists from sending, writing or reading messages on electronic devices starting Jan. 1.
Hmm…reading directions on GPS units? Hmm…
howzit Tsaikos
looking forward to hanging with you guyz, tgate Sat. wave my bannah, yell at errybody coming outta da tunnel.
dis is da time to hang onto Ron’s brah. 😀 no mo mistah nice guy 👿
Go Warriors!
ST: Thanks for the info. Will pay attention to the sjsu DT too. Our backside is the key for QB comfort level in the pocket. This game is shaping up to be a battle of two team with many similarities (strong D’s,questionable O-line play with a/lack of long plays). Think this game may also boil down to which D forces more turnovers. Go Warriors.
hi… finally came out of my Camellia coma…it’s taking me longer and longer to recover 🙁 But a big “Mahalo” to Long Time UH Fan and the gang that came to share lunch time.
I remember coming home and answering Kazz’s email updates…then waking up in my chair and then waking up in bed. Ahhh… good thing I have a rare Thursday day off tomorrow.
http://www.honoluluadvertiser.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080924/BREAKING03/80924086
ST – does this mean that you guys are getting raises too??
Stretch,
Would you consider them “fuel” or “raw material”?
and those calls are never endearing ones aren’t they.
beetle song trivai eh au’wryte I think I’m going to be sad yea, the girl that driving me mad is going away yea….. she got a ticket to ride
Got a call from Peaches this morning. They have been sightseeing, eating, sleeping and getting up early. She was very happy and excited. Their hotel is 5 blocks from the White House and they mostly walk everywhere.
Maybe they will meet with Garret for dinner Thursday, but neither has wheels so looks doubtful. Interesting they are both in DC this week and 5 miles and the Potomac river apart.
must be late couple hours behind but took me some time to read and catch up
so who’s left or it lights out

…for all ages. This song and the “Endless Summer” theme makes me think of surfing–gliding across 3-4 foot endless walls…
Al — I hear my mom and bro’s mom-in-law rides a cab back to the hotel daily, but there are 6 of them– bro, bro’s wife, bro’s mother-in-law, sister, mom, and Peaches.

No worry, I’ll drop a note on the blog. Maybe I should warn UH, too, so they can bust out the fake turf. This foot of mine can put some mean divots in the ground. Bwahaha.
Asports and Loa,

Just got off the phone with Vincent Ching, his office is 845-2314. His mother is at the 259-5707 no. his is dba Service Contracting. He talked to me long time. He is a Na Koa guy, said Ben Yee knowz him. I going give him chance fo talk to his people.
I thinking he is a smart guy. Then he tells me he get one lawyer, so I couldn’t really ask him all the questions I like ask him. But he called me a long time. So I get hope the field not going get fixed in 2011. I dunno wat he going do. He sounds like a nice guy. I bet Dennis Sadowski would sound like a nice guy if i called him up.
All I like do is fix da field now, asap, dis year. An if da UH Procurement Office wen cause sum riff raff, I’d like to know what it is, publicly crucify dem so day no do it samoa; da main ting is dat da people who bidding for UH jobs all get to feel day getting a fair shake. i’m fo dat too. but i’m fo fixin da field now.
makes all us, da suits and da homeless, feel good about our situations.
Vince neva tell me his attorney name. said he going talk to his partner. speakin fo myself from what he said today, he sounded sincere. sure hope he reads dis blog and realizes this is bigger than him, his partner, me…. this is about doing the right thing for Warrior Nation. To me, dat means fix da field!!
Go Warriors.
