Whhy do our High School teams come out for the anthem? Go to a home game and see if the home team is on the field for the anthem or if they are still in the locker room. People making too much of a big deal over nothing.

Paul Honda: It was only three years ago that Kaiser could compete against Kahuku and did so in dramatic fashion. Beating a very good Kahuku team. That Kahuku team made it to the state semifinals and lost to a really good Punahou team by a walk-off fieldgoal kick. There will be down years for all programs. Even the Kahuku’s, Waianae’s, the Saint Louis’s have down years. I remember a few years ago McKinnley beat Kahuku at Roosevelt. So please stop with all this no compition stuff. For many years Saint Louis dominated the ILH, but yet no one brings that up. I mean, how can teams with no district boundries, with much bigger budgets, compete with schools with much less? Its unfair to think they could compete week to week. Better facilities,better trainers,better assitant coaches and even the amount of coaches. Just my opinion.

These rankings are absurd, D2 and D1 should not mix.

Also cte and extreme contact is less likely to happen in a game between Kahuku vs. Radford/Kaiser because the weaker team just gets steamrolled, doesnt resist too much and pretty much gives up by half time and is running half a$$.

When Kahuku plays Waianae or Farr then you have to worry about the hits because its big boys hitting big boys, also Kahuku is usually the team with the most injuries after a game.

cte, concussions and injurys are more common in closer games because its full speed and full contact in all 4 quarters

a game that ends in 64-0 was mostlikely over by the 1st quarter and both teams are on autopilot with all the subs getting playing time too.

Waipahu would’nt even beat the Mules, so why are they ranked above both Waianae and Leilehua, or even the Govs. Division 2 should not be ranked above Division 1. Thats why there DII, they couldnt hang with DI.

The United States flag reps freedom. Freedom to kneel down and make a statement, freedom from oppression and tierney, freedom to tell Trump to kiss there a$$… We live in this great country where it is not againt the law to protest peacefully. And in doing so, you could say they are actually honoring the flag and the freedom it represents. RR4L and god bless America._.

Waianae would smash #5 thru #10. They already beat Campbell, the others are DII and would’nt stand a chance. Too funny your rankings. Its gotta be a joke. Just my opinion.

Anyone thoughts on the national anthem protesting in the NFL? I hear our local boy Mariota stayed in the locker room; well both teams did. I guess it would be hard for him to decide on his own. if the team decided not to be out there.

Thoughts? I wonder what the players would think if they came out and everyone booed them for not coming out for the playing of our national anthem? If the fans (the large majority) are good with putting their hands over their heart why are these athletes unable to do so. Instead of participating in these meaningless kneeling or sit outs. Take their millions of dollars and donate it to help victims of police brutality? SMH.
