Third Down Music

Post by Redwingtom »

Okay, I realize everyone uses Hell's Bells now, but Money by Pink Floyd? What is the point? It does absolutely nothing to encourage fan noise or intimidate the other team. Nothing.

Result - crazy loud noise

As big of a fan as I am of Floyd's, I think that choice is really, really odd.

I think "Ace of Spades" by Motorhead would be appropriate because

If we're going to use Pink Floyd material, how about the opening to "Time" with all those clocks clanging at once. That will wake up the blue hairs!

Why not use "Shiny Shiny" by Hayzee Fantayzee...

Yeah, I was DEFINITELY questioning the use of "Money" because it does not provoke a sense of urgency...I REALLY like the idea of tractor pull noises...that's a GREAT idea!

"Comin Atcha Live" by...yep, you guessed it...TESLA. :wink:

Matter of fact, that would be a great tune to play as the team gets ready to hit the field.

Or, POD's "Boom".

I don't get "Money", either. :?

Maybe Pink Floyd because when they start playing it's time to roll one.

My inclination? I've heard 3rd down be called the money down before.

Not sure if that is the case or if it's just coincidence, but that's my guess.

I have to say I have bee holding back, but the all of the music selections were as bad as the offensive play calling...makes me think those two decisions were by the same person.

Thanks for the explanation. I had no falcon idea why in the world they would play "Money".I have never heard that said before after a bazillion football games. How about playing nothing and let the band play the JAWS theme or something?
