Can anyone explain why some people have found the controversial? I only ask because I’m so ignorant of this kind of culture—some people have criticized the Fehokos because apparently the haka they do is a Maori haka and not a Polynesian haka, and they’re Polynesian. Anyone have more info on this?

Maori culture specifically refers to indigenous New Zealand populations but its origins are Polynesian. According to a Tongan co-worker, anyway.

Those whining aboot it should walk up, mid Haka, slap the shite out of him, and tell him to stop. It would be best to do this in the middle of the whole team so that everybody learns.

BDJ, the Haka, Randy Moss in the stands, the receivers, Clyde, winning the Natty in NOLA & coached by a native son... we've witnessed the perfect season. Can't imagine it can get better than that.

Pretty culturally insensitive of the black players impersonating islanders. Isn't that how it goes, ESPN?

denvertiger•49 months

Oh frick off, can't we just watch football stuff and revel in LSU players having fun without all the sardonic political bullshite. There's a board for this idiocy, ya know?

TaderSalad•49 months

nah... I wont frick off. You know why? Because sports should be absent of all things political yet these over entitled frickwads keep shoving it down our throats when they bitch about oppression and how much thug pos lives matter. They want to do this, I see it fit that we are consistent about it.
