My wife, daughter, and I will be there plus my friends who have never seen the team in person. Its hard for me to believe that I have been to so many games live and some of my friends haven't even been to one. Anyways here they are for them.

GO Warriors!

I'm here! I'm here!
So given that this is the first time the warriors are down here in HIlo, we are surely new to the game so to speak! So what da haps?

I will be there! With my 3 year old daughter in tow! Look for the beautiful little girl with Colt Brennan #15 warrior jersey. The big gorilla with her is me --BIK.

So what? food? Drink?

Lemme know -- we go plan something!

We have so little BI folks that I didn't think it would be possible, but I see you got something set up with the Tsaikos so that's cool.

with this event on the radio and in the papers how many people do we think are going? They are even offering free bus services to this event. I talked with my friends and family and it looks like we are going to be there at around 9 or 930 instead of 1030 if possible just in case.

Was fortunate to meet and talk with redshirt frosh LT Jordan Loeffler at the AKA fundraiser Wednesday night.

Jordan just returned to practice that Wednesday morning and told me that he is ready to show his stuff to his friends & family as well as the rest of his hometown Hilo fans on Saturday!!!

Yeah when I heard about the bus shuttles I though whoa, this is going to be big. I'll probably be there at 10:30 still but getting dropped off so I don't have to worry about parking. Those of you going you can't miss me, ill have a green collared sportshawaii shirt. Also I'm 6'5" (NFL combine would list me as 6'4" 3/4, but ill have shoes on dammit), anyway can't miss me, come say hi

The Verdict is in -- Kawika49 is the blog's resident poke-ologist. Ahi with fresh cracked pepper was a winna.

Was an awesome day today. Kekoa gave the updates. Only thing we differ on is that the folks where I was sitting did not enjoy the remarks by Chris on the cordless mic. Some of his attempts at being funny fell short and was borderline offensive to some HIlo folks. Funny thing is when Coach Mack grabbed the mic and said that he "personally selected Chris for the day."

The scrimmage was fun. McBride is a beast --speed kills. He name was being called all day today. Terrence Bell, Allan Sampson, Darius Bright, and Corey Paclabar --- yes! Corey Paclabar all showed flashes of brilliance. I like the way 85 plays -- plenty heart. Aside from that, I agree with the rest -- we are a work in progress. I must say that the youngsters on the line are monsters. Big boys. Chauncey looks real good. Jordan Loefler was stoked to be home. I really hope Clint Daniel gets a shot this year. Sterling Jackson is as advertised. Didn't get to see much of Iosefa.
Defense got some speed. McBride is AD -- all day. Monico had some good moments in there too. Overall, the defense looked good and fast.

Good moments afterward with the Ohana in Panaewa. What a day. I'm beat -----as in WArrior Beat. Blessings all, it was nice having the warriors here today.

Monico had a pick off Cayman. As normal, the D is way ahead of the O. I have some pics and video that will be up sometime soon, today is more football for me. My friends boys are playing flag football in Honoka'a today.
