American Samoa – Football Island (Part III)
March 10, 2010 by admin
jodatoa.blogspot.com The following are extra scenes not fully televised in the main documentary. Pre-game warmups like you’ve never seen before, as demonstrated by a high school football team in American Samoa! The governor of American Samoa, Togiola Tulafono, shows Scott Pelley the many mementoes on display from Samoan players who’ve made it to the NFL. NFL superstar Troy Polamalu explains how the Samoan way of life has contributed to his success. Scott Pelley discusses his upcoming “60 Minutes” report on a territory that sends more players to the NFL than any similarly populated place in America.
Dunno why you have 2 thumbs down, you spoke some truth coz alot of things end up being shut down because of fighting…….sht happens.
True aye. It’s the connection to New Zealand – Rugby, American – Football.
hahahahahaha…. i kept playin’ it ova and ova and i too thot she said SEXUAL… but what she really said was EXCEPTIONAL players!!!
You would think all the Samoans that made it to the NFL would donate time and money to the island and football programs, look at all that messed up football gear the kids are playing with!
its interesting how close the two islands of samoa are, yet their interests are quite different.When I went to Western Samoa, everyone there was playing rugby lol
LMAO hahahah oh shit hhahahaha
pretty sure he knew but the average person doesnt, so i guess he has to make every point clear, smebody could be left in the dark if he didnt stress that point.
when troy said that “we play with respect,” i was surprise cause when tafuna and leone high school played the championship i forgot what year but tafuna won and the lions were pissed and they started a fight in the field while the governor is watching, but not only that game but every single game there’s always a fight after the game and rocks throwing at cars, bus, and each other. Not only the samoans in the island but also the samoans in Long Beach, Compton and everywhere.
i say let em play on the lava rocks …stop em from gettin soft. B-)
hahahahaha
1:07 – 2:00 very beautiful
“How does the dancing help with the football?”
Footspeed dumbshit!
Is this interviewer a fucking retard??
Exceptional or sexual…you are what you say. But I have one question for you bradda…is something wrong with your ears? lol Or maybe your mind? Need coffee, or maybe fruit punch ( makua fa’apasasa) is better. E le valea fo’i leGei faGau. Maybe she meant SEXIEST, a.
i think she meant to say exceptional but said sexual.. I didn’t hear “ex” part.
well what about a co regincy? like andorra?, heck west samoa had two heads of state for the longest time.
Man aint nothin better than to see my Samaon people on the possitive tip!!!And jaedon001 Love your advice!!!!!!!!!!
she said “so many exceptional football players”
@KangaKucha easier said then done lol if Amerika Samoa & Samoa were to Unite trust and believe there would be WAR amongst the islands of SAMOA against each other just like the old days. For 1 the Tui Manu’a Title would come bacc to life and this Title was the highest & ancient title of SAMOA but then you have Tui Atua who is the current ruler of Samoa not Amerika Samoa you see where Im getting too?
“football is a voice for our Samoan heritage. But not in interviews, in how we hit people….”
American Samoa should united with Western Samoa, and become the union of Samoa. Any difficiltes that come can be resloved, and the USA standard of living is becoming too much to keep places like Samoa as depedents.
what about the CFL? There was one guy for the Ottawa team that was from samoa, can’t remember his name, but he coached the team in 2004.
LEONE CHEEEEEEE!!!!
She said, “so many exceptional football players.” not sexual football players.
ha well come to think of it, the cherokee and Apache Indians that i decend from are great warriors who are humble and have respect lol
haha thanks, but i forgot to mention, the cherokee and Apache Indian (which i am) are great warriors and are humble and humility and respect
