The smack is all in good fun. The olive branch is much appreciated, as is the hot slice of cheesecake. She would look even hawter wearing a garter like the ones adorning Hawaii's new 2011 pants.
If I had to critique your reply, it's a solid B effort. Retaliation with fruity Colorado craft beer stung a little bit, but it was predictable. Coloradans put all kinds of strange infusions into their suds. You probably could have found some Colorado craft brew pub run by nudists who lace their beer with rose hips and lithium spring water.
Either out of mercy or ignorance, you stopped short of calling Colorado out for unleashing Zima on the world.
Half of the unwanted pregnancies in East Lancing, Michigan and throughout the entire state of Alabama were conceived by teenage girls who were drunk on Zima. The spawn of these pregnancies often end up as smack-talking football fans on Internet fan sites. I know I did.
So let's get back with the football talk. The heat in Hawaii might cause a few cramps. I'd point out that 17 players on the CU roster and several more coaches are from Texas, Arizona, Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, or Camaroon mother ****ing Africa. There are some kids who are no strangers to two-a-day practices in triple digit temperatures on practice fields laced with goat head burrs and cracked dirt.
The Buffs know a thing or two about Hawaii and the afternoon heat. The Hawaiian player pipeline is one of my favorite recruiting story lines at Colorado. CU coaches Cabral and Mike Tuiasosopo are no strangers in the islands. Cabral hosts football camps in Hawaii in the summer. We also have five Hawaiians on the roster: OL Paulay Asiata (St. Louis), OL Kawai Crabb (Punahou), DE Juda Parker (St. Louis), OL Sione Tau (Damien Memorial), LB KT Tu'umalo (Punahou). We've seen some great Hawaiians matriculate through Boulder over the years, like Jordan Dizon, BJ Beatty, and Chris Naeole, to name a few.
The heat in Honolulu is NOT concern, and won't be an excuse in the event of a loss. I'm confident that CU's coaches will keep the players from being distracted by Waikiki beach and other island charms. These players will be arriving in top shape, with the sole mission of getting the road monkey off of CU's back. The Buffs will be coming to Hawaii for a win and a brick. Embree has declared Hawaii to be a Brick Game, which means that a victory will be memorialized on a brick in the athletic department wall. Passage to Aloha Stadium will not be entrusted to the weak or timid.
In closing, CU beat Hawaii last year with arguably the worst coach in the program's history. The same QB, both 100 yard rushers, and much of the o-line that beat Hawaii last year are back again this year. CU's d-line looks to be better this year. This is noteworthy because CU held the Warriors to 7 yards rushing in 2010. Your Heisman hopeful QB Bryant Moniz and his newly tattooed index finger is going to have to try to beat the Buffs through the air and try to exploit CU's depleted secondary.
