The Critic Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 I'm no fan of Gene Honda, but Tom Shaer is pathetic. BTW, Pablo Ozuna took number 38 - I think 66 was better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonkeyKongerko Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 Yeah Gene could have easily recorded it in advance. This Tom guy was trying to sound all excited but it was just pathetic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighHeat45 Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 They had 1 line recorded of gene...or he flew in to say one line at the beginning of the game, I forget what was said though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beast Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 Yeah, that was pretty crappy. I was like, did he leave us too? Dave Wills left for a job...and the guy who does the post game show really doesn't have it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWSGuy406 Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Apr 4, 2005 -> 11:29 PM) I dont like the new intros either. What happened to Thunderstruck??? Maybe we can put in a request to Brooks? I like the new intro as far as what's on the screen, but I, too, love them coming out to Thunderstruck.

Gene Honda Civic Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 Opening day is a little different, they announce everyone, even the bench... I wouldn't be suprised to see them go back to the thundersturck stuff for the rest of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with you guys, and they changed the song for shingo's entrance too, what the hell??

southsider2k5 Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 I wasn't a fan of the PA either. Its hard to say how good he really was, as we are spoiled by the golden tones of Gene Honda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeroHour Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 So wait. they changed the intros? Ill be there tommorrow but someone give me a heads up. I know it was opening day but im guessing wednesday will be the usual. Home Run of the century (although this is getting old) Player reel with "O Fortuna" Ticking clock/pre game/ "Sox vs the Tribe....NEXT"/Thunderstruck As long as Shingo has the Gong in the final version, Ill be fine. Last year's song was very techno, it should be more intimidating in a "Hong Kong/Kill Bill" style. More importantly, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More importantly, They did not have the Home Run of the Century yesterday...they have a new, better intro, with hightlights from past sox players. No ticking clock...no next, since Dave Wills is gone. No Thunderstruck...don't know what music was playing. Shingo still had his gong...and his Mr. Zero counter on the scoreboards.

mreye Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 I really liked the video during the new intros. It was fun to point out all the old highlights that I personally remember either being at or watching at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
