NCAA clears Rausch
By Stephen Tsai
BOISE — The good news is the NCAA reinstated quarterback Brent Rausch, deciding that he should not be penalized for a clerical error. (He punched in the wrong code on an eligibility form in August.) The bad news is the decision came too late to help Rausch, who was left behind on this trip to Boise. Jake Santos replaced Rausch on the 65-player roster.
* * *
Jim Donovan and Greg McMackin:
* * *
Ryan Mouton was booming punts:
* * *
Backup quarterback Jake Santos on the Smurf Turf:
* * *
And in the really big news ... Robert Kekaula is wearing long pants!
* * *
I think we set a record for getting a record. Two hours into our trip in Boise, we received a parking ticket. After checking into our hotel in Meridian, we drove to downtown Boise. We parked in a metered stall, threw in 43 minutes worth of change, then went in search of a restaurant. We asked a meter maid for a recommendation. At her suggestion, we had lunch at a "saloon" above a Starbucks. After we finished, we walked back toward the car ... and that same meter maid was giving us a ticket. It's all Stretch's fault. Things went downhill when the UH flag he attached to the back-row window fell off and landed on the asphalt.

Happy birthday to Ronnie.
And happy belated birthday to A-Sports.

I hope everyone had a safe and uneventful trip to Southern Spudsville.

Good Morning Tsaiko Family!!!
Happy belated Birthday A-Sports!!!!!!
Thanks for all the birthday wishes! Aaron asked what I wanted for my birthday. I said, "A win this Friday against Boise. Please ask your class (all 4 of them) to pray for a win!" He said he'll put it up on the prayer board!
Happy early Birthday to my brother Ben!!! His birthday is tomorrow. Kind of like being twins but 2 years apart.
October 16th, 2008 at 4:28 am

Thanks, brew! I wish you could be with us in Boise. We have an extra ticket..... sounds like you may be coming down with a cold *cough* *sniff*
October 16th, 2008 at 4:32 am
Hmmmmmmm...... I wonder what Ben thinks of that.... Hiya birtday girl!
October 16th, 2008 at 4:36 am
He thinks he's glad we don't have to share birthdays anymore
When we were growing up, we always had to share a cake on his birthday. Neither one of us liked that much!
October 16th, 2008 at 4:38 am
Hawaiianbod, yes. Definitely da Hawaii Bowl T-Gate.
Morning Aunty Liz. Good night Aunty Liz.
Gotta go shower and get ready for bed. Almost mid-night in the "Land of the Morning Calm."
October 16th, 2008 at 4:42 am
Nope.... already tried....they just got bigger chain a bigger gauge chain for me. Too bad it wasn't a Saturday event. Have a grand b-day pregame, and a superb post-game victory celebration party!
October 16th, 2008 at 5:15 am
morning gang!
Happy Birthday Ronnie!
hope all your birthday wishes come true tomorrow
October 16th, 2008 at 5:26 am
Happy Birthday Ronnie!
I hope that you get an awesome birthday wish tomorrow at the game!
October 16th, 2008 at 5:43 am
Good Morning Everyone!
Kind of a rhetorical question, but how come they were allowed to "re-carpet" the turf in blue? I thought it was an NCAA rule that all fields had to be green. I know the blue is "grandfathered" into that rule, but it sure seems like when it comes time to "replace the rug" it should be replaced within the NCAA rules.
Another thought...if their blue uniforms blend perfectly into the turf, then we should have UA make our green uniforms the exact color of most green turfs....
GO WARRIORS!!! (is it Friday yet?)
October 16th, 2008 at 6:11 am
Interesting that ever since they celebrated in the end zone against Florida, Georgia is the most penalized team in D-IA college football. They even seem to have a bigger problem with personal foul penalties than UH has.
October 16th, 2008 at 6:15 am
Interesting statistical analysis that found that the team with *more* penalty yards won more often than the team with less penalty yards...this trend is true for every conference, for nonconference games, and for bowl games. That result surprised me.
October 16th, 2008 at 6:18 am
Nice feature article on Sol.
October 16th, 2008 at 6:19 am
Feature article on Coach McMackin.
October 16th, 2008 at 6:20 am
Article on the improvement by the Warriors.
October 16th, 2008 at 6:25 am
One last article and my boss will force me back to work...
October 16th, 2008 at 6:34 am
i'll also be out in that crisp blue boise air with ronnie, d1 and the rest.
i wonder if Stretch's vantage point will be better than Stephen's?? it'll be definitely more comfortable. Maybe Stephen can switch booths mid game. wait, maybe i'll pay stretch a visit at halftime.
October 16th, 2008 at 6:35 am
"nice sunny day in the high 60's" MY ARSE!! just the chill getting off the plane was damn cold. I think it's in the 50's.
October 16th, 2008 at 6:39 am
Brew
I thought Purdue was private as well. Like I said, sometimes it isn't as apparent as you would think. In their facts and figures they claim they are the 26th ranked public university in the nation. They call themselves "state assisted," whatever that means. They have a resident tuition rate.
I didn't realize Auburn was public. Or Marshall. Guess I don't know much.
October 16th, 2008 at 6:42 am
expat,
I'm sorry that I couldn't think of those conferences regarding your question yesterday. I can't believe that I forgot about the WAC having only public schools! I actually looked at the Sun Belt Conference and thought that one school was private, but I guess I was wrong.
October 16th, 2008 at 6:46 am
How's everybody doing this morning?
Happy Birthday to Ronnie. Hope to see you at the game tomorrow.
Today's a travel day for me. It's off to Boise (via Portland). Unfortunately I won't get there in time for the walk-through (is this open to the public?), and I'll more than likely be down for the count once I get to my hotel room. I might go hunting for some food, but other than that today is gonna be a travel day. Nothing much planned once I get into Boise.
October 16th, 2008 at 6:49 am
Tomorrow's high in Boise is projected to be 72 degrees with a low in the mid-40's. Not bad.....because all I brought for additional warmth was a thin sweatshirt.
Bwahahahaha!!!!!
October 16th, 2008 at 6:49 am
stretch,
can you warm up boise before we get there? and i don't mean just the bar stool...
October 16th, 2008 at 6:59 am
It feels like x-mas eve to me this morning, and manana is the BIG holiday.
Hope A-Sports & Ronnie gave out a special B-day wish for a Warrior win.
Ain't it amazing that it took this long of an era to hold a practice session on the game turf? What color mixes with Blue to make Green? Once I find out, my lenses are getting a dye job before tomorrows kick off.
October 16th, 2008 at 7:21 am
!!!!!!!HAPPY BIRTHDAY RONNIE!!!!!!!

Wishing you a wonderful day and week. Hope you get to have your own cake and eat it too. Hope we get a victory win over the blue boys. Wishing you a safe journey and return.
October 16th, 2008 at 7:23 am
Hmmm...I fell a little short on the smiley faces.
.......
October 16th, 2008 at 7:30 am
Hey hey Addahknowsports!!
A very belated birthday wish to you. Hope you celebrated and got your wish.
And happy birthday to Ronnie on her real birthday.
October 16th, 2008 at 7:33 am
Hey, CRW! Glad you can make the game too!
Chawan_cut- keep dem legos warm
STEPHEN- please do NOT post pix on the game blog tomorrow so that the mobile posters can refresh quickly and often... MAHALO!!!
HiHo!
October 16th, 2008 at 7:34 am
Hi Wena-
Thanks! Good to see you posting. Gotta catch up with you on the school stuff. So when are you gonna make it out to one of our Tsaiko-gates? I think you and the kids would have a blast!
October 16th, 2008 at 7:34 am
Mav- blue+YELLOW makes green
Hi Wena, Hi Sports!
October 16th, 2008 at 7:41 am
Happy B-Day Ronnie,
You don't look a day over 29. Have some in "America's forehead." I'm sure you'll make enough noise for entire Warrior Nation. Just ignore all those folks who give you grief. There is a reason why they are bitter. All they got is a blue field while Hawai'i has an entire blue ocean.
Prediction...Warriors 24 / BSU 21
The "Iceman" will seal the game.
October 16th, 2008 at 7:41 am
Committed Road Warrior -
Aren't you sitting with us?
October 16th, 2008 at 7:42 am
One day I plan to make it to one of those Tsaiko-gates. That would be ...how many hours in the sun? But I'm sure I'll have fun with everyone.
Steve was talking to me about the Las Vegas game next year, but I told him that is my sisters 50th birthday. It's tempting tho.
October 16th, 2008 at 7:42 am
Thanks for all of the birthday wishes!
I went to Party City last night and bought some green mini megaphones.
Now I can be even louder!!!!
October 16th, 2008 at 7:43 am
One more thing- re "crowd control" - cute article about Colt's starting QB (video version) shushing the crowd on offense...
http://theredskinsblog.com/2008/10/16/video-jason-campbell-quiets-the-crowd-effectively-is-appropriately-auburn/#more-2027
Maybe Vili can teach our fans how and when to to "soaring eagle" as well as "pump it up"!
October 16th, 2008 at 7:44 am
Ooops I meant to say...Have some fun.....
but not too much fun
October 16th, 2008 at 7:44 am

October 16th, 2008 at 7:45 am
wena- get plenty shade- Cabana and tents... no worrys!
October 16th, 2008 at 7:51 am
Liz-
Tent shade sounds good to me. Thanks
October 16th, 2008 at 7:55 am
October 16th, 2008 at 7:55 am
Ronnie:
Happy birthday - enjoy!
October 16th, 2008 at 7:57 am

esmeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee out
October 16th, 2008 at 8:23 am
Punchbowl:
Thanks for the welcome yesterday.
Garrette:
Thanks for the news on Funaki.
"Part of the reason for Hawaii’s success is due to the play of junior quarterback Inoke Funaki. He’s eighth in the league in total offense per game despite not having started every game and he’s thrown five touchdowns."
This looks to be the breakout game for Hawaii. If UH wins this one, all will be well for the rest of the season. Go Warriors!
October 16th, 2008 at 8:25 am
Good Morning Tsaikos Everywhere Around the Globe and Up Your Street!
I never get tired of wishing Ronnie a Happy Birthday. It seems like the more birthdays she celebrates, the younger she looks!
Oh and Ronnie ~ You should have bought 65 'stick' horsies at that Party supply store. Give each Warrior one to 'ride' onto the Lil Pony field.Bwhahaha!
October 16th, 2008 at 8:27 am
morning Tsaikos,
Hey Stephen Tsai, where is Graunke in the depth charts and what are the rationale/reasoning?
anyone else going to genji's tomorrow?
October 16th, 2008 at 8:31 am
While we are on the subject of Blue Smurf Turf, (we were?) how come dey can, and we no can?
I understand that they 'grandfathered' the rule about field coloring. But my Grandfather is dead, and all others eventually die. So should the rule, when the stadium turf is up for replacement again.
October 16th, 2008 at 8:32 am
Morning Tsaikos!
Happy Birthday Ronnie!
to the traveling Tsaikos: keep warm, be safe & cheer plenty!
GO WARRIORS!
October 16th, 2008 at 8:38 am
we should make our turf black and call it the "lava field".
October 16th, 2008 at 8:41 am
Poor Ronnie. She's going to be exhausted on friday night. It takes a lot of work to stand-up 40 times and shout, "it's another Warrior first down". Ronnie, remember, "RICE". Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation for those sore legs. Maybe all of the Tsaikos, no matter where they are watching, should do their part, and do the same excersise. Genji's, T-Spot, Murphy's, Bayview, Al's House, Ige's, Champions, Eastside Grill, the Shack, Donovan's skybox, it doesn't matter. Everyone in unison should stand up and shout, "it's another Warrior first down".
Koakane better stay seated though. Usually by the start of the game, he's already had too much fun and may fall flat on his face if he chooses to participate in this activity.
October 16th, 2008 at 8:42 am
...and since Kekoa (that rascal buggah) brought it up...how come it wasn't kept as a rule?
Whoa, now wait just a damn minute Kekoa! First you say kill the rule, then you axe why not keep 'um? WTF??
Behold! If the NCAA voted to keep it...then the Washinton Huskies could have had a purple field and the USC Toejams could color theirs crimson and clover. Many of the colleges and Universities could add more color and pagentry to college football across the fruited plains!...or NOT!
So tell me again...how is it that only Boise got to keep theirs?
October 16th, 2008 at 8:48 am
Good morning Tsai-kos!
Midori - I'd like 5 orders of Evil Twin voodoo to go, please.
4 to put on da blue ponies and 1 for da lolo dat wen damage hubby's cah yesterday and left.
Kekoa - are da crack Tsaiko Crime Scene Instigators on da case dis am?
October 16th, 2008 at 8:48 am
Happy Birthday Ronnie !!!
October 16th, 2008 at 9:03 am
Happy Bday to Ronnie

where is everyone watching the game at?
October 16th, 2008 at 9:04 am
Kekoa. You bettah take your meds, you talking to yourself again?
October 16th, 2008 at 9:09 am
we've been in boise for 3 hours and we already got one ticket. only a parking ticket but the funny thing is the lady who gave us the ticket was the one who suggested a place to eat lunch 45 min earlier. we thoguht she was a friend but I guess not.
October 16th, 2008 at 9:17 am
Stretch- you know she's getting a good laugh with her friends bck at the station over your demise:
"can't believe those out of towners from hawayah fell for the, 'eat here/park there' ploy again. Works everytime! Haaag gug gug gug gug..."
Happy Birfdey Ronnie! =)

October 16th, 2008 at 9:23 am
And if I missed any of your birthdays within the last 364 days,
Happy Belated Birthday to All!
October 16th, 2008 at 9:26 am
Stretch-
I can't...no wait...I can believe that you've gotten yourself in trouble already. Ayaaah! Come home safe okay? And that goes for the rest of the traveling Tsaikos. Safe journey to all.
October 16th, 2008 at 9:29 am
Stretch,
go down to a toy store, buy a few smurf dolls, string them up with some twine, and twirl them around your head
when in smurfland, do as the smurfs
October 16th, 2008 at 9:30 am
Happy B-Day Ronnie.
Feels like Friday already... but then that would make it one heck of a long wait till game time.
Kekoa! You okay, braddah? Overdose? You sure you haven't been partaking from that stuff growing on that "Seeded"-land you keep 'reefer'-ing to?
October 16th, 2008 at 9:31 am
Kekoa
I think the smurf turf was fairly recently replaced - like a year or two ago - so it might be a while before the question comes up again. OK, just looked it up and it was replaced in '02. Interesting that they are on their fifth field surface since the stadium opened in 1970 and the first few were green.
1970 Green (Astro Turf)
1978 Green (Astro Turf)
1986 Smurf (Astro Turf)
1995 Smurf (Astro Turf)
2002 Smurf (Astro Play)
So looks like they will be due for a new surface in the next 2 to 3 years. Time to start lobbying to make them go back to green.
October 16th, 2008 at 9:34 am
jm2375 ~ The Tsaiko CSI team is on da case. In fact, they just called in with a good question. "What island did the crime take place on?"
October 16th, 2008 at 9:36 am
to carify, ST is driving, I am in the back seat. when we picked up the rental car, the white UH flags were immediately flown. only when we parked downtown boise did we take it down.
time for a quick nap before the walk thru later today
October 16th, 2008 at 9:40 am
Stretch,
is it easy with ST to find mauka and makai, and diamond head and ewa? tell him that GPS does not stand for Good Portuguese Soup!
October 16th, 2008 at 9:43 am
M-I-H ~ Hehehehe!...Homegrown, Tsaiko-deliks allow many colors to appear.

October 16th, 2008 at 9:47 am
Kekoa,
Wow! Must be good stuff... 15-minute delay... phew... best I had was da 5-second delay stuff.
October 16th, 2008 at 9:50 am
Here is a sampling of Jim Stafford for the uninitiated. It goes along with our Rodeo week in Pony land. A little chit-kicker music.

October 16th, 2008 at 9:52 am
Ohayoo! Does anyone have any cold remedy suggestions? I need to get better quick so I can enjoy the game tomorrow. Thank goodness I don't have class on Fridays — lots of time to prepare for the game.
October 16th, 2008 at 9:52 am
i’ll also be out in that crisp blue boise air with ronnie, d1 and the rest.
i wonder if Stretch’s vantage point will be better than Stephen’s?? it’ll be definitely more comfortable. Maybe Stephen can switch booths mid game. wait, maybe i’ll pay stretch a visit at halftime.
since Stretch will be more comfortable, maybe Stephen can have Stretch draft his report? oh wait......that would be work.............
October 16th, 2008 at 9:52 am
There's our key. Hit em fast.. hit em hard.. get to the young quarterback and breathe down the throats of the freshman receivers. Tip the ball.. intercept... sack.. and make them go to the ground game. Their inexperienced O-line will be man-handled by our Warriors. Boise has been shut out in two second halves this year. Warriors can do it!!
Go Warriors!
October 16th, 2008 at 9:59 am
good morning Tsaiko's here, there, and in Boise, Idaho.
too bad tomorrow afternoon isn't a holiday, or is it?
Hawaii 37, Bruised State 35. Hawaii wins by a safety off a blocked punt.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:04 am
Hmmm. Smurf doll on a string.? That works.
As a kid, growing up in Hockey land, used to put a rubber chicken on those tiny, telescoping fishing poles and take them to the games.
Who can cast the furthest over the safety glass and onto the ice, then reel it in faster than the ref can chase it.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:06 am
Morning all. Just lurkin today, but had to share a nice name for BSU that I read on the WSN board LOL
Benson State University hahaha..
October 16th, 2008 at 10:10 am
warning
ronnie, chawan, and others. please be advised that you need to be careful in the amount of social participation you have with the instigator. he has been known to lead others to the darkside and other mischievious deeds.
then again, if you like to have one good time, go follow him. never a dull moment.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:20 am
g-nalo in da hale! Suddenly we see a huge shift in fan support building to the UH side! Just stay out of trouble one more day ladies and gentelmen.

it is a holiday.
that's what i told the boss.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:38 am
expat, kekoa,
imagine if we (hawaii) were the ones to make them change their field to the standard green.
imagine the hate and discontent they'd have with us then.
stretch,
i gots me a car flag too. i'll only fly it when i'm in the car. i don't dare leave it up when its parked. never can tell what they'd do to it.
kelli,
drink more Green tea and stay warm!
October 16th, 2008 at 10:40 am
Kelli - lots of fluids
and da rest depends on your symptoms.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:44 am
C_C ~ I'm thinking about how we could needle da chit out of them over the removal. Where's my favorite lawyer? W/Doc, what's the approach a lobbyist would take? Hmmm...the wheels are turning.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:51 am
just looking through my old pictures and found this one.
http://picasaweb.google.com/chawancut/Boise08#5257853280173883522
i forgot that they were going after colt's knees the last time we were up there. sure they said they weren't, but that picture clearly shows it. i recall colt even mentioning it afterwards. gotta watch out. they claim to be clean, but yeah right. they know funaki's a runner, so they're gonna try to him hard and unecessarily. hope karl's refs aren't biased tomorrow. but no worries, inoke's a kahuku grad, and he can take some hits.
also, the last time i was up there, i took this. their stadium isn't the largest. i think it can old 35K. i know they did some upgrades, so we'll see what it looks like now. maybe they just put in a bunch of luxury boxes (i'll ask stretch what they're like).

In Portland on a short layover.....
Ronnie: Well yes, of course I'm sitting with you all. How did I forget? I must not have been fully awake at the airport.
Looking at the overcast weather in PDX, it looks like I get to ride on the Wazzu logojet to Boise.
Kind of ironic, eh.....
October 16th, 2008 at 10:58 am
Sorry to hear about the woes of ST and Stretch.
October 16th, 2008 at 11:01 am
stephen, stretch,
i bet that meter maid set her timer on her watch for 44 mins. walked over to your car with 2 minutes to go and just counted down the seconds. i bet she even pre-wrote the ticket.
did she smile and laugh evil-like as you walked back to your car?
is this what rival fans do?
October 16th, 2008 at 11:02 am
oh, i wonder how many hpd lurkers we have on here. i'm sure they'll return the favor next year in waikiki.... heh.
October 16th, 2008 at 11:05 am
Some people are going to Genji's, but I am not sure about the quality of their tv sets. Perhaps SteveM or one of the other regulars can cue us in.
Others are going to Murphy's. .
Am checking out BayView Golf Course this afternoon to watch a couple of innings of the AL playoffs.It's not likely I'm going to be in Kane`ohe tomorrow afternoon, but one never knows.
ESPN1420's official party tomorrow is at Champion's, but there might be some folks watching at Ige's as well as well as Eastside Grill and Big City Diner - all locations
RE the Spam controversy. PETA does not object to animals being used as food sources as long as they are raised and slaughtered humanely. They object to Hormel's methods in both areas.
There are other reasons to reduce animal flesh consumption to less than 2 lbs a week: The impact on the overall environment stemming from the release of methane gas which contributes significantly to greenhouse gas emissions and global warming; the impact on human health by reducing bad chloresteral & high blood pressure as well as the chances of being diagnosed with diabetes, more than a dozen different cancers including ovariarn & prostate, glaucoma, and arthritis.
Reducing meat consumption to two pounds a week also provides a slow, but steady weight loss over time even if nothing else changes like exercise habits or reduction in consumption of starches & sugar. Studies have shown that reducing meat consumption - not eliminating it - plus preparing it without added fats can help reduce weight by as much as 25 lbs in a year.
Back to sports. GO RAYS!! And, of course, go Wahine and Warriors. Both teams have huge stakes on the line.
October 16th, 2008 at 11:09 am
Greetings and Blessings Warrior Nation!!!
Happy Birthday to Ronnie and her grapplin' brother, Ben. I remember Ben from way back when.
A big aloha to the wayfaring Tsaikos over in the land of Smurf and Pony! You guys be good! Or should I say, don't get caught?! I think your presence in Spudville assures that the curse of the Smurf Turf will be broken, so make sure yah represent loud and proud!
Sooooo Stretch, are you just gonna take the old "park over there and you'll be fine" trick laying down?! I say, payback is a b*tch, surely there must be some way you can return the favor to Ms. Potato-head. Have a few "adult beverages" and think about it, I'm sure you'll come up with something. (Hahaaaa! Nothing like instigating the the instigator...) If you can't think of anything, just call Colonel Kekoa at Command Central, he can prolly come up with a mission for you.
October 16th, 2008 at 11:11 am
Yeah... I'm sure it just "fell off"... grrrrr....
October 16th, 2008 at 11:12 am
HAPPY BIRTHDAY RONNIE!!!

g-nalo in da hale! Suddenly we see a huge shift in fan support building to the UH side! Just stay out of trouble one more day ladies and gentelmen.
howzit Kekoa! garans i'll stay out of trouble, the instigator no stay.
gnalo
it is a holiday.
that’s what i told the boss.
mahalo Al for making it official.........
October 16th, 2008 at 11:19 am
Kekoa:
The way to start the campaign to force Boise to use green turf is to write to the NCAA. Include in the letter a request for information about filing a formal complaint and who can actually do so - fans, coaches, athletic directors, university presidents, etc. Then, once we know how to start the process and who actually has standing, then the next steps can be planned and initiated.
Frankly, I suspect that fans are the ones who are least likely to have standing. If that proves to be the case, then we need to bring in the Athletic Department administration and perhaps someone from the chancellor's office as well.
Have to go to a meeting and then to watch baseball and then to the Hawai`i International Film Festival this evening. Last night's documentary about kamikaze pilots was certainly an eyeopener. It's going to be on PBS sometime next summer so I'll let folks know when it's coming up.
Am dropping more copies of the LaTech game in the mail later today. If anyone needs copies of Fresno State & LaTech games or wants a copy of the Boise State game, please let me know.

October 16th, 2008 at 11:56 am
thanks everyone for the warning about hanging with the instigator. good thing Rich arrived so I can get away from ST and behave from now on....
time for the walk thru. since no more Ajoe here, I'll try to take 1000 pictures for him and even try the behind the back shot.
October 16th, 2008 at 11:56 am
Loa - under review? Someone threw out the challenge flag?
October 16th, 2008 at 11:58 am

October 16th, 2008 at 12:22 pm
we should be having a cc to celebrate the holiday.
breakfast at thelma's then meander across the street to tanioka's to procure some game day hors d'oeuvres then stopping by sam's club to secure some beverages.
hmmmm.

Uce5,
Thank you for the note and a belated welcome to the blog. I know that you are a big Inoke supporter--I don't know if you read the blog before the season, but I have been a big Inoke fan since last year. I thought that he improved a lot last season as compared to the previous season and thought that he would be hard to beat out for the starting job this season. I know that there were some struggles to start the season (all 4 QBs struggled so it wasn't just Inoke), but he's done an amazing job the last 2 games.
I agree. I honestly think that the winner of the game will at least share the WAC title. I know that SJSU is undefeated in conference now but I think they will have problems with depth (especially on the OL and DL) as the season goes on.
October 16th, 2008 at 12:25 pm
Tank Q W/Doc. I might as well stir up some chit and write to the NCAA.
jm2375 ~ So this alledged incident took place on the H3. Did you file a report? I do believe we have ways of finding this Bozo-boi.
October 16th, 2008 at 12:27 pm
homey....what time is belly up?
on a serious note, how do you prepare and cook dat one, eh boy?
October 16th, 2008 at 12:28 pm

sun tzu is that also the name of that new massage parlor on lower main street?
October 16th, 2008 at 12:34 pm
Bulla --sorry for the delay. I wished Ronnie Happy Birthday and immediately departed for work. Lunch time now.
I don't know. A lot of people are working at 2:00 PM--or sorta working
Kekoa was dropping suggestions. Iwonderwhytheyhate me and some friends are going to Genji's. Someone else mentioned Murphy's. Pride. in post #84 had a list that had Al's house on it.
I would go to Al's. We need an invitation?..

Since it's on ESPN... you could probably just go to Ruby Tuesdays.. or anywhere that they have nice flat screen TVs. Sears?
October 16th, 2008 at 12:39 pm
How much are those Karaoke places? And can you bring your own food?
October 16th, 2008 at 12:40 pm
OR... how about where that old 99 Ranch supermarket used to be near Mapunapuna? Don't they show ESPN on that big flat screen TV they have in the eating area?
October 16th, 2008 at 12:42 pm
I hope not...
Then again we all would like a :mrgreen "happy ending"
following tomorrow's game!
October 16th, 2008 at 12:43 pm
also don't forget to vote for Inoke

bb,
i don't think that story is true. look at the guy's title for his site.
October 16th, 2008 at 12:48 pm
bb,
It's a gag. It's still blue. NCAA rules now forbid any other colors except those that have been grandfathered in.. as in BOISE's Blue... which I think has been copied at one other University somewhere in the East.
October 16th, 2008 at 12:58 pm
Hau'oli la hanau, Ronnie!
las vegas, I heard about your wonderful voice when I was at Genji for the Fresno game. Can't wait to hear it someday.
Should be warmed up to the mid-60's by now in Boise. Enjoy the game tomorrow.
GO WARRIORS!!!
October 16th, 2008 at 1:05 pm
g-nalo - i’m surprised Stretch neva jump on that one
he stay busy with media types, university officials, and rainbow dancers. no mo time read this blog.............i guess???
Al - masage on Lower Main, i no catch???
October 16th, 2008 at 1:07 pm
Loa - keep guessing.
chawan - don't you have a princess of your own?
al - re belly pork, just put your favorite rub on it (overnight) and then the hibachi with the hot kiawe does the rest.
ummmmm, bb knows it's a joke...I think.
October 16th, 2008 at 1:08 pm
g-nalo - What's a masage? New type of sashimi or fish egg?
October 16th, 2008 at 1:09 pm
I guess we're gonna have a not too complicated contest tomorrow.

Kazz put me in quote mode...
Some people try to find things in this game that don't exist but football is only two things - blocking and tackling.
Vince Lombardi
October 16th, 2008 at 1:14 pm
Tomorrow's contest has all the elements of a sporting event in which every single sports-related cliché will be used.
There is not much one close to this situation can say anymore. By all accounts and by assumption, this game is already lost for us. But the beauty of athletic competition allows for a 180 degree turn for the better of the underdog. Hawaii has NEVER had any favors or help from influencing sources and tomorrow will be no different. We may have the reputation of being an undisciplined team, but tomorrow is the best time to be defiant.
We must stand defiant in the face of arrogance.
We must stand defiant in the face of adversity and biased officiating.
We must stand defiant in the face of those that already counted us out.
WHO GIVES A S**T WHAT WE DID AT FRESNO STATE?
TOMORROW WE PLAY BOISE STATE!
Tomorrow's enemy is an enemy that is sore, bitter, and angry about last season and they have every right to be, but we must stand on our belief that last season was NOT a one-time thing.
Tomorrow, every reaction NEEDS a greater response!
If they hit, we aim to cripple.
If they run, we aim for a knockout.
If they cry wolf, we SHOOT the wolf.
If they come out with speed, we come out to take the air out of their sails.
If they punch us in the mouth we must rip their heads off and s**t down their throats!
All that aside and in our minds, we must respect our enemy. If we fail to realize the power they have on that sideline, we have already lost this game as quickly as we can win it.
I don't know what lies in store for us tomorrow and neither do they.
All I know is that it all starts tomorrow in 25 hours.
In 27 hours we will have a better idea of where we stand.
In about 28 hours, regardless of the outcome, we will know what kind of Warriors we really are.

Interesting discussion about the splits taken by the OL.

BSU's bowl game will now match the WAC (most of the time BSU) vs. the MWC.
October 16th, 2008 at 1:27 pm
So, the MWC now has 5 bowl tie-ins and the WAC has 3 bowl tie-ins. I hope that the WAC can get another bowl time-in, as having just 3 means that deserving teams will get left out each year.
October 16th, 2008 at 1:30 pm
Update on Oregon State. I'm surprised that Jeremy Perry cannot get another season due to medical hardship...he didn't play against UH and I don't think he's played in a game since then.
October 16th, 2008 at 1:30 pm
MIH: Yes, 99 Ranch still airs stuff on TV. I'll be there with my Math Team kids around 5:00, so if you go there, we might run into each other.
October 16th, 2008 at 1:31 pm
homey.....thanks for the tip. i think i will try that. i have a rub in mind. well two actually one sort of asian and another i just made up.
do i cut the belly in two inch lengthwise or leave em whole?
October 16th, 2008 at 1:32 pm
INTENSE EMOTIONS DATS WHY.

sorry for the confusion.
btw, what is masage? homey, did you ever find out if it was raw fish or fish eggs?
October 16th, 2008 at 1:35 pm

And an early Happy Birthday to brother Ben. Keep warm, mahalo for representing and enjoy the game and Warrior victory!
October 16th, 2008 at 1:37 pm
Finally arrived in Boise and all checked in to my hotel room and everything.
I was talking to the airport shuttle driver during the ride to the hotel and he was telling me that the officiating crew is staying at my hotel.....about half of them are already here and the rest should be arriving pretty soon.
Perhaps the most interesting thing I saw on the ride to the hotel were these three guys standing at the intersection just before you turn into the hotel. The shuttle driver pointed out to me that those three guys were part of the officiating crew.
One of them was wearing a BRACE on his left knee.
What the hey?????

I think that the rules are the UH will play in the Hawaii Bowl unless it qualifies for a BCS bowl. I do NOT think there is any chance of UH playing in the Humanitarian Bowl!
October 16th, 2008 at 1:42 pm
al - I leave em whole or however it comes packaged. Also, I'm not picky when it comes to local or mainland. whatever is the cheapest at the time is what I buy.
I tried to google japanese masage...
October 16th, 2008 at 1:43 pm
Mrs. A-House sent to the doghouse by TChahng and Kekoa-
Sorryeeeeee... had a feeling my "republican" comment would generate some intense emotions. Lately, I tend to blame the Republicans for everything that's negative in my life...like my plants dying (so what if I only recently started to water them regularly)... and my aching back (was it from lugging 10 lbs. of raw peanuts from Chinatown back to A-House's office?). Lesson learned the hard way... no more comments mentioning political affiliation. Will you still be my friend...please...
October 16th, 2008 at 1:44 pm

What is nekohana?

Mrs. A-House - Republicans are sooooo sensitive yeah!
October 16th, 2008 at 1:54 pm
RE: Boise bowl
Yeah, its another bowl tie-in, but its with the 5TH ranked MWC team. What a let down. If UH goes to the Hawai`i bowl and Benson State U does not reach a BCS bowl, they could have one loss and face a .500 crap team. BONUS!...not.
October 16th, 2008 at 1:55 pm
whoosh!
Did a video of the Softball Wahine WAC Champs bracelet ceremony ever get identified? Was there truly NO ONE with a home video? How about a still shot with players and Tsai-kos???

Leon Wright-Jackson has outstanding speed and agility, yet he seems lost as a running back in the system. His bouncing around the line looking for an opening can only get him so far.Why not use him to return kicks, where he's out in the open field and can use his blazing speed? And I think we're last in the nation in returning punts - why not use him there too? Ryan Mouton is being overused having return kicks and punts and too valuable to the defense to risk injury. What do you think?

most times can.
but if not holiday, you gotta drive. if State holiday, then i can drive.
October 16th, 2008 at 2:44 pm
midori........you need to clarify your tiebreaker.
Tie Breaker #1: Who will be UH’s leading rusher?
is this
who has the most carries?
or,
who has the most yards rushing?
October 16th, 2008 at 2:45 pm
homey,
The video for that stream is the Versus feed, but the audio is the BYU radio network. Weird, but it'll do for those of us who don't have Versus on their TV systems.
October 16th, 2008 at 2:46 pm
OMGZ!~ 14 nil! Go TCU!!
October 16th, 2008 at 2:47 pm
g-nalo - Sure thing! I can come all the way from Mililani and pick you up in town and then we go Waipahu and when pau head back to town to drop you off and then I drive back home to Mililani...sounds like a good plan to me!
October 16th, 2008 at 2:48 pm
And just like that byu is down 14-0. They look freaking horrible on O and D thus far.
October 16th, 2008 at 2:49 pm
Thanks CRW!!!
October 16th, 2008 at 2:49 pm
wouldn't that be something if for some reason jake santos did get in the game and did marvelous things!
ahouse,
listen to garret. he is correct that as long as we don't get to a bcs bowl game by virtue of our finishing 12th or higher in the bcs bowl rankings and we are bowl eligible, winning record that is, we will always play in the hawaii bowl.
well, as long as we are in the wac. which seems like where we will stay put for a long, long time.
oh, unless ourselves and some others finally do get together and are accepted as a new bcs conference. although that too, is highly unlikey since the greedy bcs folks don't want to split more pie with anyone else.

Good afternoon, Tsaiko-Nation and Tsai-Meister.
Ronnie, make sure you get us all a huge victory cake for your Birthday !!
Been lurking on the Boise boards and boy, they sure are taking us lightly, it's 99% to 1% thinking that it will be a cake walk for them and that they'll smash us to pieces. Great, I hope their team feels the same way.
My big hope is that we don't come out slow and give them an easy score like last year. We have to be ready from the starting gun.

In about five years from now, all the BCS BSers, the University President etc., all the ones who are opposed to a play-off system right now, because of short sighted greed, will bow to future pressures from networks and the so called lesser Universities and a bunch of smart people and realize the huge amounts of money left on the table with the stupid BCS.
Once they get to this point, the entire NCAA league system in Div. 1a will be re-aligned into only 8 x 12 team conf. with the champions playing off as Nr.1 seats. None of the other bowls would be eliminated and the current BCS Bowls would hold semi-finals and finals. Some teams would be re-classified as 1aa again, as it should be.
This system will be fair to all and would generate about five times as much as the BCS now. Just my two cents.

Ref: Kazz's post #182, it reminds me of something Coach Malloe said when he was guest speaker at KS Basketball Banquet last year shortly after being named as a new Coach at UH. He said that as a player, when others walked, he jogged; when they jogged, he ran; when they ran, he sprinted. He said it's that kind of effort that will make you successful at anything in life. So should it be tomorrow. We need to outwork and outplay them in every aspect of the game, and do it for 4 Quarters. If we do, we will win.
Also a note on Coach Malloe, he has a tendency to be overly enthusiastic and head butt the players after big plays. Unfortunately, they have helmets and he doesn't, creating some nasty head cuts on occassion. Gotta love a coach with that kind of passion. That has to trickle down to the players too.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:35 pm
jm2375 - but then again you make the most mess!
October 16th, 2008 at 3:35 pm
Florida Ted:
Like your post and agree that some point in the near future, the college football scene will be changed and the "BCS" system will be scrapped.
Believe some of the current BCS school Presidents have already broached the idea of change, but the Michigan AD, the all mighty powerful, is still against the idea. Why? Simple, he will lose all his current power and be a nothing again.
Can some one refresh my failing memory on the reason(s) why the BCS was created.
Also, Congress questioned the "monopolistic" features of the BCS and the millions of dollars received by the conference schools versus the other conferences. ESPN also is a co-culprit in this venture as the station to carry/sponser nearly all the BCS games. What happened the ABC and the rest?

madeinhawaii: I have a sore throat, runny/stuffy nose, little bit of body aches, tired. The sore throat is what's killing me, though. I'm starting to feel the head cold moving to the chest. Probably gonna get the lingering cough soon.
chawan_cut: I AM drinking green tea! I've been chugging this stuff like crazy cuz no mo' miso soup.
jm2375: Does green tea count? I should probably drink some OJ, too.
homey ✌: Um... What's sari sari?
October 16th, 2008 at 3:57 pm
Kelli - sari sari is a Filipino soup...some ono!
Looks like you do need some OJ and chicken long rice.
October 16th, 2008 at 3:57 pm
I'm not a doctor, but it is necessarily wise to partake in a diuretic when fighting a cold? Or is it just the process of drinking liquids that helps?
October 16th, 2008 at 3:58 pm
Saying as byu probably takes out utah in the finale, that leaves da donks in the drivers seat. so we either take them out tomorrow, or in all likelihood get a small portion of their bcs $$$. rather take them out, go warriors.

October 16th, 2008 at 4:06 pm
Hmm, so some people do recommend green tea, because of the antioxidants. But most of the stuff I see online mentions ginger-lemon-honey tea, which is what I usually drink. That, and orange juice and chicken soup.
Hope you get better, Kelli! (And stay away from me please, haha.)
October 16th, 2008 at 4:07 pm
BOTTOM LINE:
If there are two non-BCS schools ranked and undefeated at the end of the season, ONLY ONE GETS IN.
October 16th, 2008 at 4:12 pm
jason or kelli.
zinc.
or as mih would recommend silver or gold. seriously.
October 16th, 2008 at 4:16 pm
so i guess brashton's shoulder is more of a big thing than it was first thought.
i'll bet he gets in the game though.
24 pts. that is a lot for anybody to give a team that beat fresno state on the road. i seriously thought that the spread was gonna be about 13 pts.
i guess our last two wins have yet to convince the odds guy's that we are better than we looked at florida and corvallis. if thats the case then 24pts smells good.
but, if they have caught on and maybe they think bsu is that good. hmmmm. much to ponder.
October 16th, 2008 at 4:17 pm
Kelli - gargle with warm salt water. my doc says it helps break up da galas dat cause da sore throat & cough (post-nasal drip). chix soup good too.

Thanks for your help, everyone!
homey ∅: Where you get dat from or gotta make 'um?
Jason: Hmm... Maybe I should get different tea. I think the tea helps cuz it's soothing, but maybe just gotta go for something other than green tea. The question is... Can I really stop my addiction?
al: Zinc!!! OMG, my mom used to get me the chewable kind when I was small. Better go get some of that.
jm2375: I always heard about saltwater, but never tried it. I guess it works then. And yeah, I would like some soup, preferably miso soup, but grandma hasn't made any yet.

My last update. I must leave for a doctor's appointment.
October 16th, 2008 at 4:31 pm
IF you drink here and there.. I recommend some boiling water with some honey and a liquor of your choice and maybe a lemon too.
Mix everything according to your taste preference.
I forget what this is called, but the alcohol and the heat relaxes you and allows you to get some sleep.
October 16th, 2008 at 4:32 pm
Kelli: Consider making your own ginger tea. Just slice and simmer in water.
Funny how the iPod touch tries to change "ginger" into "Ginger."

October 16th, 2008 at 4:34 pm
Al,
My friend thinks that with having Elimimian go back to the middle and having RJ outside it will allow for "more" plays for A. Leonard. Plus, there's no learning curve there as that is Sollie's old position.
However Brashton WILL indeed see time. He's too good and too tough not to play.
Coach Mack said he plans on using four LBs, of course it could be more depending on Brashton's availablity.
October 16th, 2008 at 4:37 pm

Too bad the decision came too late. That is okay, though. Santos deserves to go.
October 16th, 2008 at 5:11 pm
Wafan,
Aw c'mon.... No Care About Anything? Of course they do! They care about your Ohio States, your USCs, your Floridas, your Tebows, etc.... that's about it though...
October 16th, 2008 at 5:13 pm
byu going lose.
i don't feel sorry for them.
October 16th, 2008 at 5:17 pm

They have a light menu but will allow food from outside or delivered there.

Brashton Satele Fact:
Brashton feels no pain, but pain feels all of Brashton. Brashton has a heart of gold so this bothers him as he feels sorry for pain having to feel him.

Ralph,
What happened to Utah? Doesn't the MWC still have them as a "lifeline" or did I miss something and they lost a game?
October 16th, 2008 at 5:51 pm
Something to think about.
Since BYU cannot get into a BCS type bowl game the only team left with a hope is FSU. Would you be willing to give up all that extra cash to see the Warriors beat them? Or is the cash more important?
Hmmmmm. Win or cash. Cash or win.
Sort of like that old joke, "Give me your money or your wife gets it!" Then you stand there and think about it.
As for me, I take the win and bragging rights. Besides I really want to see the FSU fans turn a nice shade of blue to match their turf.
October 16th, 2008 at 5:53 pm
Don't forget Utah and Boise State. One of these teams go undefeated and I'll bet they go BCS.
Warriors better have their game faces on. watch the trick plays, quick snaps while we're substituting, quick throws to the wide receiver while we're calling the defensive play, reverses (I call 3) oh heck, watch out for the muddle huddle.
Boise doesn't just want to win..they want to destroy us! If they do...with a couple losses ahead of them and Boise could make the top 12.
GO WARRIORS...you get chance...but you better play smart!
October 16th, 2008 at 5:53 pm
Dang it! FSU 2x = BSU 2x.
October 16th, 2008 at 5:55 pm
See you all on game day!

It means Frank Delima shows up at your door with a cab full of Tutu's!
October 16th, 2008 at 5:59 pm
Wafan,
Although Benson attempted it, you can't manufacture a win.
(see UH at Fresno State game)
SCREW THE CASH, GET THE WIN!
October 16th, 2008 at 6:01 pm
Kansas
Missouri
Oklahoma State
Texas Tech
LSU
Florida
Georgia
Ohio State
Penn State
Alabama
Oklahoma
BYU
Utah
at least half of these teams will lose two more games between now and the end of the season. If Boise State wins out (hopefully not after tomorrow) and Utah wins out...one of them will go to a BCS game.
October 16th, 2008 at 6:06 pm
Boise win so we get BCS cash...nonsense! If Hawaii beats Boise, we'll probably bring in more money with tickets sales to more fairweather fans coming to the remaining home games. Nope...I'd rather beat Boise State than get any amount of money.
So will someone pass this message on to the refs? I'd hate to see another home team having a game with no penalties.
October 16th, 2008 at 6:15 pm
Kekoa... I made a boo boo.. was Homey that had that #222 at 2:22 ... and now that I had time to think it over. I think you are right. Was the Powers Above's way of saying to Homey.. "Go catch a cab!"
October 16th, 2008 at 6:16 pm
EXACTLY. I think I've grown tired of this "Support Your Conference" crap a while ago.
It's all for one and one for all.
No one will even give us a level "field" to just play so I saw screw them!
Just like when FSU won the College World Series... I'm a Hawaii fan so I could give a rat's A$$ about that.
People wanna say that their win would "mean a lot to the conference". Well what? BSU went to the Fiesta Bowl and won an awesome game and what did that do to the WAC? NOTHING.
We went to the Sugar Bowl and Colt was a Heisman finalist. What did this do for the WAC? NOTHING.
Again, we must worry about OUR Ohana at home first before anything else.
"No one will help us, we must help ourselves." - Keala Watson
I stand by my prediction of:
UH 37
BSU 35
FINAL 2nd OT with UH being assessed 4 P.I. calls, two "running into the kicker" calls and three "unsportsmanlike conduct calls ONLY because the officials in the FSU and the LaTech game were not able to give out their required "Hawaii allotments".
If I sound like a whiner, then pass on the cheese, no one can HIDE the facts!
I'm p***ed, I'm irritated, and I wanna crack some heads and smash some faces!
October 16th, 2008 at 6:18 pm
More than likely this may happen again. 4 million dollars is a lot of money for Kaiser Benson to leave up to the actual game being played on the field.

Mrs. A-House ~ You know our political differences will never come between our friendship. I merely made mention to let you know where I stand. If you can't stand up for your party, that you stand for nothing.
Unlike that Math whiz from Salt Lake, I am much more concerned about your well-being. It's ok to be critical, or inject a little levity into an otherwize contentious campaign season. Thank you for doing that.
May I also suggest that you talk to your plants, as the experts have recommended. Therein lies the secret to growing very healthy and beautiful plants.
Oh...and...May Our Warriors BEAT DA LIVING @!&$^! Out of Doze Little Blue Ponies!

good evening tsaikos...
about to roll out of this restaurant after a terrific meal. time to kee the hotel bar open all night then stagger back to the room
October 16th, 2008 at 6:41 pm
Kazz ~ I shudder to think of what body parts you will damage during this game as soon as a bad call is made. BTW has your other 2 injuries healed completly yet? Careful my friend, we need you to last to the end of the season.
October 16th, 2008 at 6:41 pm
Yo Stretch, SteveM,
How's the weather looking for the game tomorrow?
October 16th, 2008 at 6:43 pm
Kekoa,
I will be at my desk in the office so I will practice restraint. Since I'll be counting on Bobby Curran and Robert Kekaula to call the game for me, I won't be able to see the bad calls, only hear about them.
So I can allow my right hand to heal for now as I must save it for the Nevada game.
October 16th, 2008 at 6:46 pm
Kekoa:
you have mail..........
October 16th, 2008 at 6:57 pm
My picks for the contest are:
# of rushing plays = 41
TB # 1 = Pilares
TB # 2 = 96 yds
October 16th, 2008 at 6:57 pm
Great Evening All!
Happy Birthday Ronnie!
Back in Portland at last. Spent the day with #2 son. Accomplished delivery of several containers of island goodies for him and the other Hawaii boyz, then got to watch some of his practice.
btw, McMinnville is really cool!
(How cool is it?)
Well, let me tell you. It was 51 this morning when I got there and never got above mid-60's
A-sports,
Glad you and A-joe had a nice time at dinner.
Now that I'm in my hotel room I can kinda unwind before taking an early flight out for BOI
I'll be looking around for a good place to park so will track down Stretch right away for some hints.
Going esme now and get ready for bed.
October 16th, 2008 at 7:02 pm
Kekoa:
Plants - Mrs A-House spent 2 days of back breaking labor to gently wash all the white fly dust off the anthurium plants with warm soapy water.
Now, they are flourshing with new leaves and flowers. They look so happy and getting watered daily.
I suspect they are doing so well because Mrs A-House has stopped singing to them. But, I talk to them!
October 16th, 2008 at 7:09 pm
D-1 ~ Watch out for this one Wahine that moolights as a Meter Maid. Apparently her son was offered a chance to play for JJ, and the deal was cancelled faster then she could spell 'violation.' Now she prowls the streets of Boise on game week looking for Hawaii fans for revenge. Stay away from Stretch & ST, they are marked men.
October 16th, 2008 at 7:14 pm
Hi Kekoa -
Whew! I'm back in good graces with you, my dear friend. I am genuinely relieved. Now I can enjoy the rest of my evening.
October 16th, 2008 at 7:15 pm
A-House ~ Mrs. A-House stopped singing? Hmmm, was she singing in english or Karaoke?
October 16th, 2008 at 7:20 pm
Stretch -
If you're still lurking... would appreciate a detailed description of the "terrific meal" you mentioned in post #342. When a connoisseur of fine cuisine like yourself is pleased with his meal, my curiosity is peaked.
Glad you are rip-roaring and ready for battle tomorrow. No scared 'em, GO GET 'UM!!
October 16th, 2008 at 7:20 pm
ST ~ I forgot to mention that in your opening sentence above, you said that the wrong code was punched. Never say that word near Kazz. His lightning quick, short jab and powerhouse punch will put you right on your 'Kun-dingy' if you do.
October 16th, 2008 at 7:25 pm
Kekoa -
No kidding...when I offer to sing for my family, their replies often sound like this... "ummm, no thanks Mom...not now". Then, when I start singing anyway, they burst out laughing. Therefore, I can only assume that quietly watering my plants daily is the ONLY reason why they appear well on their way to flourishing. I'm relieved.
October 16th, 2008 at 7:25 pm
Kekoa, you seem to be in a great mood these days. That other thing you wen talk to me about is okay now?
October 16th, 2008 at 7:31 pm
Kazz -
Thanks to you and your passionate and gung-ho posts in BOLD print, I am psychologically ready for the game tomorrow. If someday you really need beefy back-up, I got your back...literally, you lead the charge and anyone left staggering after you administer the first punches, I will finish them off with my singing loudly in their ear until they beg for mercy and accept defeat.
October 16th, 2008 at 7:33 pm
Why is it that it always feels good to see BYU lose? Oh, yeah, I remember.
Don't forget Ball State and Tulsa. They are also both still undefeated. Anybody who runs the table has a legit shot at a BCS game. The polls won't be able to ignore teams that are 9-0 late in the season, especially when top ten teams like BYU get spanked... It isn't like BYU has had a tough schedule so far either. This was their first game against a FBS team currently holding a winning record. They squeaked by Washington... a team that is locked in a bitter battle with Wazzu to hold on to the PAC-10 cellar. Sure, they destroyed UCLA, but UCLA has been in and out of intensive care all season.
October 16th, 2008 at 7:36 pm
Jason - i was in your neck of the woods today (Salt Lake Shopping Cenyer). Was looking for a place for lunch, but didn't find anything interesting. Saw an establishment called "Yum Yum". How would you rate their food/value/ambiance? Any other eateries in the area you would recommend?
October 16th, 2008 at 7:40 pm
Cenyer=Center
October 16th, 2008 at 7:41 pm
BYU is a typical example of pre-mature hype with all this BCS talk. I don't care what conference anybody plays in, it is darn near impossible to go undefeated in any league. BYU was ranked much too high all season anyway.
Anybody who stays undefeated deserves to go to a BCS Bowl, including Hawaii last year.
Utah will lose at least one game also. Boise's only real obstacle is Hawaii. If they win, big if, they have the best path to stay unblemished. Conference Championships should always be the Nr.1 goal, the hell with the BCS, let's beat Boise or at least make them earn it in a tough battle.
Off course, hype brings eyeballs to TVs, but it would behoove any team to win their Championship first, then worry about BCS BS.
October 16th, 2008 at 7:42 pm
Midori7 -
I hope I win...fairly and squarely, of course. It's a really nice looking authentic jersey, folks. Good luck to all who enter/entered the contest.
October 16th, 2008 at 7:44 pm
homey way way way back when use to be working for 5¢
October 16th, 2008 at 7:48 pm

we're already leading the pack, but doesn't hurt to vote more.

Tie Breaker #1: Who will be UH’s leading rusher? Pilares

good evening tsaikos how you all doing, welcome back to vagabond JJ. sorry to hear about S and S with rita da meta maid. like I said before it is not strange that Boise State has dem initials.
October 16th, 2008 at 7:59 pm

-Crazy f*ka stuck in the office during the UH/BSU game tomorrow.
October 16th, 2008 at 8:14 pm
Mrs A-House,
Thank you. You have confirmed my long standing suspicions.
Anthuriums have no sense of humor!
October 16th, 2008 at 8:20 pm
GO WARRIORS!!!
October 16th, 2008 at 8:34 pm
Mrs. A-House, we're all good! I like Spam Musubi, you like Spam Musubi, Jason likes Spam Musubi, Kekoa likes all kine Musubi. We tight like dat.
Midori7, I like play too!
Shoots, go run attempts: 24
TB#1: Pilares
TB#2: 88 yards
TB#3: First BSU turnover: Fumble, recovered by RJ Kiesel-Kauhane.
TB#4: First UH TD: run, Funaki.
October 16th, 2008 at 8:48 pm
ST -- thanks for the pix. The blue field looks even darker than before...wasn't it replaced last year?
October 16th, 2008 at 8:52 pm
By the way, that was not the real Gigi-Hawaii.
October 16th, 2008 at 8:53 pm
whoosh!
Hi All!
STEPHEN- You are probably sleeping but- get one typo: "Warrirors a chance to get acclimated."
October 16th, 2008 at 8:56 pm
hahah- so much for a sleeping ST!
WOW- RK in jeans!!! Hey- got that runway pose too!
October 16th, 2008 at 9:04 pm
Folks, question... The other blogs on this site are being moderated... Why not this one? I'm not trying to be an instigator, but I don't think this moderation thing is fair... I also think that it penalizes those of us who are genuine... punish the lot for the idiocy of the few... I don't buy it... what do you guys think? Just wanted to know... I'll go away now...
NEO
October 16th, 2008 at 9:05 pm
ST- dang, I thought gigi was back and showing off what she learned in Heather-Mack's class...
October 16th, 2008 at 9:17 pm
Good evening Tsai-kos!
IS IT FRIDAY 2pm YET? GO WARRIORS!!!!
Man, I wuz hoping da Rays would finish off da Bosox tonight. As a lifelong fan of da hapless Orioles, I'm really tired of watching da Yankees and/or Bosox win year in and year out. Da 2 Boston boys at work will be happy campers tomorrow, esp I think they've already given up on da Pats.
Kekoa - all da hoops have been jumped thru with da insurance company. now to get an estimate.
October 16th, 2008 at 9:20 pm
NEO- if the blogs start to die off because of the moderation, mgt. may have to re-think the policy. Moderation of this blog would take too many shifts of people working w/o a contract and, frankly, we have demonstrated the ability to be self-correcting.
October 16th, 2008 at 9:26 pm
Thanks again everyone! I'm going to bed early. I need to be in the best condition possible to watch the game tomorrow. I'm running a fever, too.
Stupid vog!
jm2375: I tried the saltwater. It helped for a little while.
Jason: Never tried making ginger tea. Maybe if I had some ginger I would. LOL!
al: Some of my relatives call (called) me Kelli Girl.
I'll try to pick up some lozenges tomorrow.
October 16th, 2008 at 9:26 pm
Kazz,
Always a pleasure to read your inspiring poetry!
Jay
October 16th, 2008 at 9:28 pm
At some point the Warriors will have three runners in the game. Inoke QB, Pilares FL, Libre-Wright Jackson RB.
Guesses:
1. 32
2. Libre
3. 60
October 16th, 2008 at 9:28 pm
Kelli- blue germ masks are good too- keeps the sulfur dioxide down. We are all hacking around here too...
Vog is bad!
October 16th, 2008 at 9:30 pm
Liz- Thanks for the clarification... Now if we only could get that same clarification on the officiating tomorrow...
FRIDAY IS GAME DAY!!! P.S.-Ms. Kelli: PLEASE get well... green tea w/ lemon and honey and a half jigger of jack daniels works wonders!
October 16th, 2008 at 9:41 pm
Mrs. A-House: No worries, we're all friends here.
Hawaiianbod: Don't bother with Yum Yum. I go there out of desperation, when I want Thai food. I always get their green curry; I give it a C+. Yum Yum's main location is downtown, near the corner of Hotel St and Bishop St. Go to Phuket Thai instead.
NEO: I don't like any of this moderation. The HA guys are wise not to put any moderation stuff on this blog, cause it generates so much traffic that would be lost if the post screen were put into effect. But yeah, it's not fair to any of the other bloggers, who have to take more of their time to moderate all of the comments. And it's not fair to the readers, most of which are civil and respectful of each other.
I also find it ludicrous that the blogs are being moderated, while the news story comments are full of hatred and other disgusting things. All of this makes no sense. I hope they change their policy soon enough.
October 16th, 2008 at 9:46 pm
No wonder... I guess all that sudden outpouring scared the new Gigi away... oh well...
October 16th, 2008 at 9:50 pm
midori7:
How many times will UH run the ball? 31
Tie Breaker #1: Who will be UH’s leading rusher? Kealoha Pilares
Tie Breaker #2: How many yards will UH’s leading rusher have? 72
Pomai: 31-24 UH.

Warrior Mojo you have mail...
October 16th, 2008 at 10:00 pm
I'm so inspired by that "Devil May Care" attitude displayed by Mr. Kekaula while walking the Runway in his designer jeans. Wow! how inspirational.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:01 pm
Coach Mac looking very 'local' like in his fave Slippahs!
October 16th, 2008 at 10:03 pm
Hi Kekoa! All set for the big weekend?
October 16th, 2008 at 10:05 pm
BSU will not be going to the BCS... their loss to non-ranked Hawai'i October 17th, pushed them outta the rankings and dashed their conference title hopes.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:05 pm
Ryan Mouton can punt...run down his own ball, strip the return man and take it to da hale!
Liz, remember...I made a similarly impossible prediction at the La Tech game, and it happened exactly how I said it would!
October 16th, 2008 at 10:09 pm
Jim needs to wear a different color aloha shirt. And Robert ... I told you on Monday, suck it up like Lono Manners! Shorts and T-shirt brah!
October 16th, 2008 at 10:12 pm
Jason - at least he's still wearing slippahs!
October 16th, 2008 at 10:14 pm
jm2375 ~ Sad thing is, you're out the deductible and your own time and use of your vehicle while Bozoboi is a runaway child running wild. Grrr...I'm feeling your frustration.
I'm keeping my Supah Soakah on full automatic in case I spot the Perp on the H3 on my way to watch the game.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:16 pm
Kekoa - make shua it's filled wit dat Boise blue indelible ink!
October 16th, 2008 at 10:21 pm
Screw the BCS! Ponies are going down!
Knew that BYU would lose and am ready to cheer Utah on to BCS game! They just need to get by both TCU and BYWho!
Kazz - Love, love your enthusiasm!
Happy Birthday Ronnie! Gonna give you a Warrior win so that you can really celebrate! Start looking for those tickets to the Cincy game! Then it's on to the football banquet with the WAC champs. Guarans SJSU is going down!
October 16th, 2008 at 10:25 pm
Rob25: Are we SURE it's Ronnie's birthday? Bumbye we go Facebook, and it says November 3rd.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:26 pm
Well, we had a pretty good night.
Bobby Curran ate elk.
"Ferd" had buffalo.
Rich2176, Stretch and I had prime rib. (If my daughter's reading this, make note that I had a salad, too. And I took my meds.)
And Liz Chun had ... chicken.
And, of course, we topped off the night with a 1:30 a.m. run to Wal-Mart.
Ah, life on the road.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:26 pm
jm2375- I jut got my silver Prius back from the body shop. Had two sets of dings - one from a family member and one from an unknown parking lot encounter, I think. Had to pay TWO deductables because there were 2 causes on 2 dates...
Tsai.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:31 pm
Anybody want me to calculate the expected value for a claim on their insurance policy? (Yeah, just had a test today. Our professor uses questions from the probability test for actuarial students.)
October 16th, 2008 at 10:31 pm
ST- sounds yummy! I love bison and I heard elk was very good.
Please keep the game blog unillustrated so the guys at the game and on phones can refresh quickly... ok? pretty please?
GO WARRIORS!!!
Buck... er... we're not doing that this year, right?
GO WARRIORS!
October 16th, 2008 at 10:31 pm
liz - aiyah! I feel for ya. da door no close good, so da inside gets wet and is starting to smell stink. hope this gets resolved really soon.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:31 pm
Looks good to get on a flight in about 3 hrs. Thank the Lord that we should land in time for the game! I'm call you, Kekoa, as soon as we hit the ground!
October 16th, 2008 at 10:34 pm
Jason
Ronnie didn't even realize that it was like that on her Facebook.
Hey it's always fun wishing people Happy Birthday anyways. It seems to be an issue with the Tafoyas.
Buffalo and Elk
YUCK! Too gamey for me I would think...I'll take the Prime Rib with ST and Stretch!
October 16th, 2008 at 10:34 pm
BG and Betty- will pray you get home in time to watch the game!
Bon Voyage!
October 16th, 2008 at 10:35 pm
Oh Liz *THAT* big weekend! Yes, and no. I'm escaping my house/hotel to go watch the game at K-Bay with BM and Curveball.
Tons of family flying in from everywhere, but few are dedicated Warrior fans. Imagine, they actually came for the wedding! Bachlorette party tonite has all the men worried. They are all so insecure.
No time for the halau to practice the songs and the dances, so it's gonna be very impromptu. More fun that way. Kaipo's stressing cause no mo room to put the friends he never thought would fly in from Monterey, and they have no ground transpo either. Oh...it's so chaotic at Keoni's what with babies screaming and mothers yelling for dads to help...haaaah, marital bliss.
Liken it all to feeding time for the Tsaiko's when the dinner bell rings! I try to keep my distance, so as not to get trampled in the rush for all the local grinds they have all been deprived of for years!
With Diana's sis, like I said last night...I try to keep her calm and offer relaxation therapy for her scream level 10 headaches.
Kimana?...he went for his Tux fitting today, and then went surfing to stay away from the build-up of stress from his cousins.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:35 pm
Rob25- bison is way less gamey than beef and way less fatty! The native americans knew what was good eating!
October 16th, 2008 at 10:37 pm
Rob25: That's what Ronnie says ...
And don't forget the salad with that prime rib. And horseradish — it's a vegetable, after all!
October 16th, 2008 at 10:37 pm
Oh and Rich too.
Sorry Rich, didn't mean to leave out the good luck charm!
October 16th, 2008 at 10:38 pm
And yeah, buffalo is really good. You should try it.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:40 pm
Thanks for the update, Kekoa!
Uku-boi is chatting and yakking... a little while ago he says "Brie says hi"
I'll be in town for Rotary on Sat. and going home Sunday...bah... traveling during the 'Skins game... but I'll be wearing the XXL CB5 jersey/dress
October 16th, 2008 at 10:41 pm
BG ~ Make sure that you do call. I'll come pick you and Betty up at the Term. Wisk you home, and if you are (ha!) up to it, we head over to watch the game.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:42 pm
ST forgot to mention the dedsserts that everyone had. I seen a few apple cobblers, pumpkin pies, bread pudding, mixed berry cobbler and some strawberry thing. oh yeah, robert "I'll go out on a limb" kekaula had vanilla ice cream. it was a perfect way to end a very enjoyable dinner.
time to go sleep so I can wake up tomorrow and get ready for the game.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:42 pm
Liz - I just might have to try that then...someday.
When we were stationed in Okinawa, they served Ostrich burgers. I never did try but some said that it was less fatty and tasted like beef also. I wonder if it is the same as when everyone says that things taste like chicken.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:42 pm
ST - remember a Foster's commercial years ago? "How to speak Australian". Picture a huge steak. Hand places a sprig of parsley on top. "Salad"
BTW - ketchup and fries qualify as veggies.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:46 pm
Stretch I would ask you to make an "Aloha Rob25" sign, but not sure they could see from that "special" box you will be in.
Maybe Ronnie will carry the sign we made for the FSU puppy game.
Oh, and don't forget to yell "It's another Hawaii...first down!"
Good night all!
GO WARRIORS!!
October 16th, 2008 at 10:47 pm
Dat boi was lucky to have such a good girl to hang out with. Brie is a very mature young lady, and JaM has done a wonderful job of guiding her along. I hope that they will eventually learn to appreciate the same kinship we all share.
October 16th, 2008 at 10:48 pm
Nitey nite and SWEET, WARRIOR DREAMS.
And Rich- T-color for you buddy!
It's another Warrior.... ____________
Woo Hoo!
October 16th, 2008 at 10:49 pm
Haha, I loved those Foster's commercials.
I've always wanted to try ostrich. Had a chance in Madison, but I got the Runnelstone instead.

Ho boi! My Pops used to say, eat this or starve! Sometimes I nevah knew what 'this' was! You truly do miss out on some great tasting stuff.
October 16th, 2008 at 11:01 pm
Hey, one of my favorite movies is on! "Andrei, you've lost ANOTHER sub?"
October 16th, 2008 at 11:04 pm
Kekoa
Hey you all should be happy. I leave more for you all to enjoy. I like my beef and will be going to the land of cattle so I should be enjoying the meat that I love the most!
That's okay...maybe someday I will try those mammals, but not the oysters or various other seafood...no matter what!
October 16th, 2008 at 11:05 pm

gigi! Hiyah!
Kelli: 2 grams of vitamin C every couple of hours. A hot toddy tonight (if you're not in bed yet)...lemon juice, honey, hot water, whiskey.
I like elk! Tastes like beef except it's leaner. I pulled an antlerless elk tag once, but didn't get an elk.
GO WARRIORS!!!
October 16th, 2008 at 11:09 pm
Rob25: No, no, this is Tsai-konomics we're teaching here. The more that people partake in something, the more people bring of it, so more available for all!
October 16th, 2008 at 11:11 pm
whew...on the eve of the Boise game, I finally have last Saturday's LaTech Tsaiko gate photos 95% done...

Ok Rob25 ~ At least you DO eat dead cow. I'm happy for that much. When you get up to Dallas, enjoy your time with your hubby and give him my best. We kid with you a lot, and you are very Onipa'a about it all. Good for you girl! Hehehe
October 16th, 2008 at 11:27 pm
i believe we all knew that wasn't the real gigi, who is probably reading this as i "speak" and probably wants back in.
we all knew except for two of us anyway.
October 16th, 2008 at 11:30 pm

Kekoa
In case you're still up...won't be calling you tomorrow. When we got to the terminal, we were told that the flight never came in. Tentatively rescheduled for tomorrow evening...we'll see.
October 16th, 2008 at 11:52 pm
we will survive the friday night lights by....
scoring twice by way of special teams and/or by the defense.
and we play mistake-free beating bs in their own game.
October 16th, 2008 at 11:55 pm
hmmmmm... would you settle for 21 Mart?

do you think that bs will start believing their own hype?
do you think that bs sees that 24pt spread and starts believing it?
do you think that most folks had written off this hawaii team a few weeks ago?
do you think that we are still underrated?
do you think that coach mack has his team believing that they are a very good team?
do you think coach mack has removed the "prima donna" syndrome from the team and has them all pulling for each other as one team now?
do you think that coach mack has done his greatest works over the past seven weeks?
if you answered yes to all of the above, then go bet the house!!!

Betty saw the fumes coming out of my ears and hustled me out of the terminal before I tore that ops sgt a new one. Calmed me down by reminding me that the game is going to be on here. We'll be watching!!!

AL is right - kiawe grill is GOOD. Can't say that much for Burgers on the Edge except that their fries are good.
October 17th, 2008 at 12:10 am
well, there's ac, a sony, but not as big as a 52 incher. yah, i am a couple of inches short, its a japanese tv you see. it is in hd. it is accompanied by a surround sound system that the boss only lets me use for football.
the carpets are fairly new. we don't drink beck's but their might be a light beer or some imported stuff in green bottles. no more karaoke though.
you gotta like dogs, big dogs. cuz they enjoy the indoors and there are three of them. they won't bite unless you spill your poke on your lap. they will beg all through the game.

earlier today someone was inquiring about what a "nekohana" is.
since inquiring minds probably want to know this.
literally in japanese language
neko = cat
hana = flower
so go figure.
but, while i googled this shows up. its a comment by someone on the "midlife crisis:" blog in april 08.
"Rodney:
April 29th, 2008 at 1:33 pm
Nekohana - someone told me that in Korean, it means “one for me” or something similar. A nekohana is a drink that a patron buys for the hostess. But it’s not your ordinary $4.00 drink, it’s $20. The hostess will get an actual drink and sit with the sucker, er… patron who bought it for her and drink it with him. Sometimes it’s alcohol, sometimes it’s water. So what does the hostess do with the other $16 dollars from the nekohana? Buy a Mercedes."
i am thinking that "nekohana" became more notorious when the korean maidens took over the hostess bars. because in the early beginnings the hostess bars were run and staffed by japanese nationals who tried to bring the geisha bars to hawaii. strip clubs were primarily japanese nationals as well.
no, i am not that old nor did i write a thesis on this subject. one of my infamous uncles was in the business.
October 17th, 2008 at 12:30 am
btw, why are we talking about nekohana?
thats not football.
its close to food, family, friends, and definitely fun.
okay so four out of five counts.

Enjoying free hotdogs, chips and a fruit platter served all game long. This K-Bay place is better than Murphy's! More freebies, good service, good pupu's.
Plenty of space, good viewing, free parking and lots of great fans! We will be here on Nov 8th!
