Here is something to ponder on a Friday morning….

The haka has been discussed previously on this site (here and here). Since it is playoff time in Texas 5A high school football, the media is once again writing about the haka performed by the Euless Trinity Trojans.

The Trinity haka is clearly inspired by the spirited haka of the All Blacks rugby union team in New Zealand. One key difference is that the Trinity haka seems to be perfomed for their fans whereas the All Blacks haka is aimed at their opponent.

Would a Falcons haka violate the Ozark Conference Creed?

If yes, would it be different if we had a large Tongan population at Glendale?

My favorite haka is the new haka, complete with a throat slashing gesture, from the All Blacks. I know it would not be approved.
