A few issues I'd like to see resolved this DT season.
Jul 13, 2015, 11:24 AM
|
|
In no particular order in particular.
1) Purple Helmets. Why are we not doing this? 2) White Helmets. Why are we not doing this? 3) Replacing all purple with navy blue. Why are we not doing this? 4) Playing good music when we run down the hill. Maybe Metallica or Nickelback. Why are we not doing this? 5) Can we finally agree that The Hill entrance is dangerous. I'm not advocating that we put up stands over the hill, I think it's still fun for students to sit on the grass. I'm just saying that the players should enter Death Valley from the safety of a tunnel.
I'm open to working on other issues as well, but these 5 are way past due.
Serious replies only.

I cannot honestly offer a response to your comment about running down the hill.

How bout a funneling water slide? Each player, once off the bus, is provided their own tube (also can opt for the buddy tube that seats 2), then walks up some steps and hops on near the top of the scoreboard. Each player "who's all-in" will reach out and slap the rock (as the ride would naturally wrap around it) on the way down to the field.

Just put in some of those chairs that ascend and descend staircases for people with impairments. Of course, Ben Boulware's butt would probably break them in half.

We could install a chair lift. Might have to load the buses a little earlier but the whole team could make it down in 20-30 min.

> In no particular order in particular. > > 1) Purple Helmets. Why are we not doing this?
100% agree. I'd like to see those worn regularly with maybe a new logo, like a scary tiger face. Different shade of Orange, too... ours is soooo played out. Ugh. Like more of an orangey-pink? Mix it with lavender?
> 2) White Helmets. Why are we not doing this?
Neh, too not traditional.
> 3) Replacing all purple with navy blue. Why are we > not doing this?

I wouldn't mind a lil Celine Dieone Titanic action IF we continue running down the hill, which I also disagree with.
> 5) Can we finally agree that The Hill entrance is > dangerous. I'm not advocating that we put up > stands over the hill, I think it's still fun > ll fun for students to sit on the grass. I'm just > saying that the players should enter Death Valley > from the safety of a tunnel. >
Love the safety tunnel idea. Best of both worlds: Celine Titantic while watching our guys safely walk out of a tunnel over to the sidelines in their new orangey-pink uni's.
Could you imagine how nuts it would be in the Valley prior to kickoff? Opponents would probz just exit the field and amd get back on the bus before the game - forfeit.
> > I'm open to working on other issues as well
I want more stands where the hill is. It's all about the Benjamins. We'd probably then be able to knock off sc jr as the most dominant football team in the state.
And what's with these tight fitting tops. I'd like to see us dawning a top that fits more like a woman's Sunday dress that falls well below the knees. Think Big Mama with that Martin Lawrence guy, or the old Grandma Larry Johnson commercials with the Charlotte Hornets. We need something new and fresh to set us apart.
Just my humbled opinion.

Of course the players would still wear their shoulder pads and leg padding, but just imagine this uniform with number and names in an orangey-pink.
Also think it best if we wore bubble wrap around our helmets. Maybe somewhat see through so during the close-up shots you can kinda make out our logo.

"We want everyone to be equal. Therefore, no practicing until the day of the game."
I mean, it's just practice.

#1 and #2: Let Oregon worry about wardrobe and garms for each particular game. We will focus on winning football games
#3: The orange and purple is unique. Auburn already does navy blue. And refer back to #1 and #2.
#4: The music takes away from the ambience of the "champions arriving" Thus, the train brakes and the sounds of the cannon and marching band ushering the warriors.
#5: NO ONE ELSE runs down a hill. EVERY ONE ELSE runs out of a tunnel. It is a visual of the celebration of the warriors coming down from the heavens to defend the honor of Clemson and slay our enemies that try to invade our home.
Seriously, you don't screw with the "Formula to Coca Cola!"

The entrance is part of the reason visiting fans envy us. It is pretty authentic.
