now if they were to take a real play by play call from a close game that we've actually won, i think that would be much cooler.

HAAAAA HAAAAA

A field goal against YSU? ehhhh.

after hearing the recorded version, i am now very glad they didn't to the thing at the end at convo. it comes across as melodramatic, over the top, and a little fake. it doesn't sound as if its a candid play by play moment; its just nick making up meaningless hype speech. now if they were to take a real play by play call from a close game that we've actually won, i think that would be much cooler.

And as much as a like Nick, the voice on this should be Jerry Edwards, with real-life samples of his calls of dramatic plays from the past.

I listed to JE for 30 years and never heard him get that excited. Come to think of it, he didn't get excited about much of anything. He did do a great service for the University and served us well.

I've never heard Nick get that "excited" on a real play by play either, and I hope I don't. IMHO It's over the top.

I agree with the general sentiment... kinda catchy song, something fun, play-by-play thing leaves much to be desired.

Believe it or not, that is very similar to a rap that Toby wrote back in the day that he and Mike performed together when they were first developed the concept for dcTalk. Of course the references were different but the concept was very similar.

Since this was at Convo, there has to be a video of this performance uploaded to YouTube or Vimeo or hosted on the university site somewhere. If not, git er done.

It's on the LU site but I couldn't get it to load properly.
