I agree with your passion and your points are well taken. But don't bash me for it. If the partners are at odds with the leadership now then let them deal with it. The Kings program is runned by good people. And my son has been a part of that program mind you. The Victors have done a lot for these children and have taken on a huge responsibility. And I say the same about Brew and the rest if these people.<br /> RBI program was started with the HBGC and has morphed into something else. You may want take that up with Wayne Yamauchi. But I'll speak for the RBI girls team...They're basically trying to finance their own cause And, and with the help of UH Hilo have been given an opportunity to practice at a top facility here in the eastside.<br /> If you're implying that special attention is being given to RBI and the Warriors orgs....then bring up to the proper admin people.<br /> Let's see how this game turns out first. Lets see hiw the HBGC benefits from this. Then if it doesn't work out you can continue with your tirade. If it turns out positive I say good for everyone.<br /> lastly, HBGC has had it share of bad management, funding and support. I hope that Mr Silva serves its membership well and proves to a few of his detractors that he's the right person for our kamalili.<br /> ( i'm independant and have no memebership with Warriors or RBI.) </p> http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/topic/top-10-hawaii-hoops-forum-bloggers/page/2#post-19670 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 13:58:52 +0000 manolo7777 19670@http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/ <p>Bill, I have been a loyal subscriber to the Tribune Herald for 20 years.

They are not even recognized properly in the Baseball RBI league. Yes, Nobu Yamauchi was the founder but it's a BGCBI program. It has it's own separate board which shouldn't be. Sad, very sad. If the head of the Boys &#38; Girls Club RBI League saw the rosters of these teams they would flip and it would maybe even shut the league down. A certain % of players need to be below a certain income bracket. When politics get in the way the kids loose! My family has been a big part of the Boys &#38; Girls club in the mainland that's why I know how it SHOULD be. </p> http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/topic/a-chickenskin-moment-for-daggers#post-19652 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 12:35:37 +0000 shooter 19652@http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/ <p>Great Post HiLow. very special moment for pahoa indeed. </p> http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/topic/biif-all-star-game-dates-and-locations-set/page/7#post-19651 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 12:10:16 +0000 Luna86 19651@http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/ <p>Let them bask in this triumphant time Tamba....it's all good bro!

Fact or Non-Factual...It was briefly mentioned in the blogs but, I have no personal knowledge.</p> <p>NICK FISHER ~ ~<br /> But it is true regarding Nick Fisher~ It was confirmed by one of the coaches / teachers during the season that he is actually 16 and supposedly should be in 11th grade (Junior). His Sr. year might be eventful (to say the least) regarding his eligibility. He was held back 2 years (on separate occasions) during his academic journey.</p> <p>I must say, he (Nick Fisher) is very developed (body, facial hair, etc)...he obviously looks much older then a 9th grader.

Gym time is a stretch, there is an exsisting "lagitimate" BB program within Boys &#38; Girls Club. Why are they not included or revived or consisdered as needing help with that program. In other words, why bring in the Warrior Association to be umbrellaed under BGCBI? They (Hoops Dreams) need BGCBI programs to meet their grant requirement and using BGCBI programs as a tool to achieve that. P&#38;R is tired of their crap! I've been a member of the BB community long enough to NOT be blind sided. I happen to know A LOT of people who know, for a fact, that there are issues with this "partnership".

He plays with a lot of emotion. Very quick with the ball and he shoots pretty good for a freshman. I don't know about 6'2, but he is still young so you never know. Hoop, are his parents tall? A friend of mine in school was about 5'4 as a freshman and he is 6'3" now so it can happen. He hit his growth spurt during our senior year and right after. </p> http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/topic/guys-who-could-have-solid-college-careers#post-19641 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 10:13:39 +0000 HoopFanatic 19641@http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/ <p>I'm being serious. </p> http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/topic/top-10-hawaii-hoops-forum-bloggers/page/2#post-19640 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 09:59:50 +0000 menehunewater 19640@http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/ <p>cmon bill at least tied for 11th place, 100way tie!!!! </p> http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/topic/guys-who-could-have-solid-college-careers#post-19639 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 09:42:54 +0000 BasketballJones 19639@http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/ <p>Are you serious, HF?
