  1. Not a better QB on the move in college football than Alejado. This is what makes him fun to watch.
  2. BIG STOP right there!
  3. The rule about the helmet coming off is nuts. Just killed Hawaii’s drive. Toe gets it to 8 though. Close to having a game now!
  4. It’d be cool if Alejado led them to a long TD drive right now. It cooled off now to a normal temperature for football here. Got the wind swirling in his face this quarter though.
  5. That was a hilariously bad challenge from Chang. I mean why challenge that play?
  6. Feel pretty sure this might be the oldest combined age of a starting kicker and punter. Billy Gowers (nine years of pro ball in the AFL down under) is 29 and Kansei is 26. Gowers has a cannon of a foot as well. Think he averages 46 or so per kick.
  7. Cal gets it first in the 2nd half. Don’t score there and it’ll get interesting quickly. One of the best things about standing down here is when a player’s mom comes to take their son’s picture and encourage him. The last one asked me if the Bows are my team and I said “No I’m an ASU guy, but I’ll support Hawai’i.” She didn’t miss a beat and starts talking about a local Hawaiian kid that plays for my guys. This is what makes coming out here fun. Feels like going to a high school game back in small town Texas.
  8. We’ve got a somewhat competitive game again. The Toe nails it.
  9. Their QB is big time and so is that DB, but yeah the rest is not so much on the big time.
  10. Hawaiian to Tongan connection to finally get on the board!
  11. That catch was just ridiculous.
  12. Nicki Minaj. Folks that moron is part of why we get in situations like this. She couldn’t count to potato, but there she is grifting right alongside our Secretary of Grifting. Nuke the whole apparatus. I am so sick of all these them. A bunch of uneducated clowns getting the poor in spirit and money to go along with messages like that.
  13. Cal is so much bigger on both lines. Someone needs to remind Chang he has one of the worst run blocking lines in the FBS OR even the FCS. Do what you do best and throw the pill every down. Sucks not having Harris who transferred out, but you gotta throw or the game will get ugly.
  14. I thought this offense looked familiar with all the movement.
  15. Sagapolutele throws a beautiful deep ball. Why is someone in the SEC or Big10 not offering him more than whatever Cal is?
  16. I won’t miss the last game on the island for 2025. I’m a lefty so getting to watch two Freshman southpaws, both of which are Hawaiians, is a great way to spend the afternoon. Neither team care one iota about running the football either nor should they in a bowl game. I have 364 other days to enjoy the beach here. I’ll go take my customary spot standing on the sideline. I think the Bows are going to be on the visiting bench today so I’ll get to listen to their coaches and players for the first time.
  17. They sink so fast you wouldn’t believe it. Sailors from some canal battle couldn’t believe how fast they go to the botttom.
  18. So when he does it anyway does everyone just throw their hands in the air and say “well he’s the boss so let’s head out to Illinois!”
  19. Outside of the United States it is what people talk about. I meet people from all over the world and anytime TFG’s name comes up they just assume he’s a pedophile and ask why he is not in prison for what he did.
  20. Watched it in IMAX 3D. Had to go back for the last hour and a half today because my eye has a cut on it and I could take about two hours exposed to light before it was too much. There are some scenes that were a bit long and the movie could’ve been a bit shorter, but those are trivial complaints. Watching it in that format is just incredible. If my eye wasn’t so irritated right now I’d go and watch it again this week. I love all the attention to detail put into the movie and Inam glad James Cameron has spent the time on the Avatar films that he has. When you care that much about a project and put in the work he and his team have you get beautiful work like this.
  21. I got through about five minutes of it earlier. That was more than enough to make me dislike these people even more. Nothing but racist white trash at all levels of our government that deserves all of this in return when they have to one day answer for this.
  22. Calling them savages without calling them savages.
  23. I am aware of their history and when they fought it didn’t go on continuously like Europe because kings and queens treated war like a sport all the way into the 20th Century. The Pacific Peoples are more interesting and still treated each other better than the people that populated Europe, even in war footing time. The only thing they don’t have that the barbarians in Europe do is an extensive written history noting all the wars they fought on that continent.
  24. Sometimes I wish I could find an interest in European history outside of my dad’s home country, but I always conclude it’s not worth the effort so I stick with learning about Pacific Peoples instead. Far more interesting to me at least and these people got along with each other better most of the time and thrived in some of the most remote places on the planet until white people showed up.
  25. This right here is something every single person should look at that blames minorities for their economic life being in shambles. It would take a massive societal upheaval to get equality for everyone in how we all live, but this is where you start. That we have people hoarding unconscionable amounts money that should be in circulation for everyone just really strikes a nerve with me. Even right now trying to type out my thoughts on that picture really overwhelms me. I don’t know who the person or group will be that finally breaks this down and takes back the money that all Americans should have access to in the form of better pay or even programs to help people attain a better education, but I’ll support them. The amount of good paying jobs that could be created for people with that hoarded money would go a long way towards our society finding some middle ground. It’s all so pointless and ridiculous that we’re going into the year 2026 and we’ve still got a set of ghouls like the person in the center of the picture doing that to everyone.
