My most irrational like.
Woodinville!
That family dominated high school athletics during my formative years.
During mine too...
I saw the Tuiasosopo clan at the Woodinville Wendy’s a few years ago…Marques was wearing his gigantic Oakland Raiders 2002 AFC Championship ring.
Dude hit a homerun off me in High School.
He and Jon Lester (who actually hit a ball that hit me while I was pitching and I had to leave the game) are my two connections to MLB. And, just as would be expected – I sucked against both of them. I still consider myself lucky though.
I dislike him because he's local and I worry he'll turn into Willie Bloomquist
Determined, Jonesing Commentor
Too late.
Everything is Rob Johnson's fault.

Tui is more talented than Willie Boom Boom.
But just as useless. It’s really annoying.
Local kid, famous local family....
I can’t help it, I like the guy. I suppose if the poll were specifically “how much do you like him as a player” my answer might be different. But I’m looking at this as an “overall how do you feel” kind of thing.
"Fights begin, finger prints are took, days is lost, bail is made, court dates are ignored, cycle is repeated."
Probably my least rational vote
Having met his dad, I’m not a fan. Negative points for being a Husky, too.
Rooting for lovable losers since 1984.
Uh, how exactly is he a Husky?
He never once enrolled or went to class so that makes him more of a Cougar doesn’t it?
I lump all Tuis in as Huskies
He gets small points for having the smarts not to actually attend, but that family bleeds purple and gold.

I forget that
Mostly because I grew up in the same area as them while Marques was the talk of the town, and then had to put up with Zach playing for UW while I was at WSU. Like I said, highly irrational voting, but it’s what my young mind remembers.
Well, that and Manu walking around Woodinville like his shit doesn’t stink. His favorite way to greet people was (probably still is) to walk up to them, stick out his hand, and smugly say “and you are?”

So far, is simply playing the Fredo to Manu's Vito and Marques' Michael.
Since I still don’t really have any idea where his career goes from here, I voted “no opinion” for now.
Is that the light at the end of the tunnel, or the headlights of an oncoming train?
