It's finally here! The anticipation and wait to finally start the new season is over! It feels like it's been forever since the Tide took the crown yet again, but it's a new year and a new opportunity.. Tonight, the first game of the year will kick-off and I am HYPED!! I will definitely be headed to the bar to watch this one.. No lie, I am in no way interested in this matchup AT ALL.. At the same time, I finally get to sit down, grab my pizza, snag a beer, and glue my eyes to the beautiful sport we all love. I'm in, are you?

They did for awhile, but they recently brought it back.

A year or two back they decided to change non-football nicknames back to "Rainbow," and to re-add "Rainbow" as a prefix to make "Rainbow Warriors" for football.

So the football name has been Rainbow, then Rainbow Warriors, then Warriors, and now Rainbow Warriors again.

HAKA

Haka by the Univ. of Hawaii. They did a haka before UGA took them apart 48-10 few years ago.

NZ HAKA

Kick arse Haka for 3 NZ soldiers killed in Afghanistan.

I'm glad they went back to it. Other teams would sound weird or silly with a name like Rainbow Warriors but with Hawaii it just fits. It just sounds so much like the Island.

Y'know, I really liked the Hawaii Volcano-Mad-At-Us-Agains one from the 1980s, but I can see why they didn't think that would work on their jerseys.
