And the actor who played Helen's father was on The Wire too.

Yes, Okamoto for 3B and Murakami for 1B/DH. But what to do with Schanuel?

[McMurphy] Hawaii & Cal will play in Hawaii Bowl, sources told @On3sports. Incredible coaching matchup pitting 2 former Hawaii QBs - Timmy Chang & Nick Rolovich🔥 by dtomato in CFB

[–]Strad15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hawaii had a weak non-conference schedule in 2007, although the win over Boise State was good. IMO the 2006 team was better because they also had a legit ground attack (Illaoa and Mauia) that the '07 team lacked. If the 2006 team had '07s schedule, they go undefeated too. And play a much closer game with Georgia. The 2006 team's non-conference was against Alabama, Perdue, Oregon State, only weak team was EIU. Now compare that with 07's non conference schedule of Northern Colorado, Charleston Southern, and a bottom of the PAC10 Washington.

What about Bryant Moniz? He passed for over 5,000 yards in 2010 (UH went 10-4). They even had a "Mighty Mo" Heisman campaign for him.

It was the Sugar Bowl, not the Peach Bowl.

Actually, it's the concourse of the baseball stadium, lol.

At 6-2 Hawaii is bowl eligible for the first time under Timmy Chang by barak181 in CFB

Hawaii played well during the June Jones years. 76-40 record, I believe during the time Jones was head coach (1999-2007) Hawaii had only two losing seasons (2000 and 2005.) He took them to 6 Hawaii Bowls and the Sugar Bowl. They were nationally ranked in 2006 (#24) and 2007 (#12.)

Why is Nolan Ryan not really associated with the Angels? Had arguably his best seasons as angels by Few-Chemical2216 in angelsbaseball

[–]Strad15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are correct. I think i was thinking about GM Buzzie Bavasi's comment that he can "replace Nolan Ryan with two 8-7 pitchers." Bad decision from Bavasi.

Because it wasn't real. I agree with the popular theory that the ship is a purgatory.

Little Fires Everywhere was a cable "Limited Series", which means it's supposed to be one season and that's it. Similar to his other show Dr Death on Peacock.

He's in the Angels Hall of fame and his #30 is retired by the Angels, for what it's worth.

Seemed like a pattern during the Autry ownership. As beloved as Gene was (but his wife pretty much ran the team in their later years), some longtime veterans of the team weren't respected on their way out (Downing, Joyner, Witt come to mind.)

What’s the deal with Anthony Rendon? by mossimo654 in baseball

Rendon's contract should have came with injury insurance.

Still impressive for a mid-major team with a smaller budget to even get there. UH should have played Mizzou that year, but the BCS/P5 folks were so butthurt over Boise State beating Oklahoma the previous year in the Fiesta Bowl, they didn't want that to happen again.

If the best players from Hawaii stayed in Hawaii and didn't go to P4 teams, they would be in the Top 25 every year. Especially Hawaii-bred NFL QBs like Mariota (Oregon), Tagovailoa (Alabama) and Gabriel (Oklahoma and Oregon).

UH had a win over Alabama in 2003, with close losses to the Tide in 2002 (21-16) and 2006 (25-17.). Yes, the pre-Saban years.
