    His Twitter likes are a mixed bag of UW college and NFL Trojan players. Magic 8 Ball would be less than 81% certain.

    His brother plays for UW and Ale Kaho is also one of his boys. I think we are in decent shape.
    He will not never not not come here.
    There's the negativity I'm used to hearing. You and Dennis especially have been far too positive lately. It was getting wierd.
    I was diagramming this sentence, trying to untangle the nested multiple negatives. Still not not unsure what it means.

    Shit, I missed the first of the three nots. Damn you, heuristics!

    I want Joe (and Danyiel) Ngata more than I wanted Haloti.

    I want those guys too ... but if I had a choice and pulled Haloti out from a time machine ... it's Haloti all day every day.
    I have a friend who played MLB at the FCS level and also played rugby. He played rugby against Haloti Ngata in some tournament in high school and said he was a total bad ass, which qualifies as fairly unsurprising, I suppose.

    He said the combo of the guy's size and quickness with the total absence of pads was absolutely terrifying.
    I've seen haloti's high school rugby highlights. 6'5" 300lb and runs like a deer. He could have been world class at rugby ...

    I grew up with a couple of guys that played in the league and I played rugby at UW. I played with some guys who were really big, or really strong, or really fast. None of that was so bad but yeah every once in a while you would have to play a guy like this who was just on such a different plane of athlete that combined all those other things. It sucked and there was usually nothing to do about it. Guy like that could just wreck a whole game by himself.

    Instead he was world class at a decent sport.

    Rugby is a decent sport. Haloti makes far more money in the NFL of course. Top rugby players might make 500k - 1m on average. Top maybe 1-2m ... A year.

    Haloti has done well.

    I still think USA Rugby should scoop up a bunch of bubble NFL players (like guys that are on and off practice squads) and train them in how to play rugby. I don't think it would take long to see the US National team become really fucking competitive in the sport, particularly in Sevens.
