Just a thought on Player entrances

This may come off as border line corny but I have wondered if we couldn't add a new dynamic to the start of player introductions. Something to be known for and get the crowd pumped. We all have heard and tossed around nick names for the stadium and the vault has always been a favorite of mine. With that said I envision just after visiting team announcement we should show a 3d vault door swinging open on the jumbotron. Have the camera move towards and into the vault then with a resound thud have the door slam shut. Have two Carolina Blue panther Eyes open and glean in the darkness then let out the "roar". It would give a feeling that we had just locked the visitors into a situation they do not want to be in. Then start the flames and let the team run in.

Just a thought. :cool:

Anybody looking to intimidate on intros needs to go to Blacksburg Virginia for a Virginia Tech game to see how it's done. I got some tickets for a game with NC State a few years ago and they happened to be right in the middle of the State fans. They were in absolute awe of the spectacle leading up to the kickoff. It was amazing to hear their comments of why don't we do this poo, etc. I don't think there's a more intimidating pre-game ritual in the country, high school, college or professional...

I think play on the field is enough. If you need a dog and pony show before the game...you might not be very good. IMHO

This is more for the fans at the game to get pumped up. You all know our fans only stand (sometimes at that) for 3rd downs. I think we need to get crowd into the game even before the coin toss.

Oh and BTW thanks to PantherBoy for editing my Avatar.

Well yeah, it's Virginia. That's the most riveting thing that State does all week. Of course the atmosphere is electric.

    • Having trouble finding all these articles saying the Raiders withheld information. Here’s the latest from Crosby’s surgeon: ElAttrache told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Wednesday morning that Crosby was "doing very well in the early part of his rehab and recovery from surgery to treat a significant meniscus tear and the related stress injury to the bone and cartilage in his knee. He is certainly on track in his planned program." "We truly respect the work of the Ravens' staff with Maxx regarding the contract physical exam. We also understand the challenge the staff faces when tasked to provide a future risk assessment based on an evaluation early in the recovery process," ElAttrache said. "This is especially challenging when dealing with an elite player like Maxx considering the level of commitment necessary for a team to obtain him. The timing of this assessment is unfortunate because the apparent risk will lessen as his recovery progresses and his return to performance over the next few months becomes clear."     So the Ravens excuse is the future risk assessment based on the physical, not that the Raiders withheld information. They found an excuse to save face publicly. They had the right to cancel the trade for no reason at all, but they’re trying to save face with the most acceptable reasoning they can find. I’ve heard and seen the Ravens getting dragged everywhere for this. You know what would be an easy way to put a stop to that if you’re the Ravens and the Raiders were actually the shady ones withholding information? Just come out and say that you were not given all the medical information. But they aren’t saying that. I guess they’re just taking the bullet for the Raiders just because?    Speculation indeed.
    • Two first round picks for a guy with very questionable knees who will be 29 this summer. Yes it is safe to say the Ravens got cold feet.
    • The salary cap is the reason we got Phillips and Lloyd
