You know what the perfect rockin' rap song would be?

Kanye and jay-z - going h.a.m.

It would really get the crowd rocking

So I am looking at the GOPACK.com media day gallery photos of players in front of the green screen and I can just see it being used for Fireflies.

Now this is the law of the jungle -
As old and as true as the sky;
And the wolf that keep it may prosper,
But the wolf that shall break it may die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree trunk,
The law runneth forward and back -
And the strength of the pack is the wolf
And the strength of the wolf is the pack.
-Rudyard Kipling

Ahh, thought they were saying it had something to do with Welcome to The Jungle - GNR

From another post:


"The Law of the Jungle
Rudyard Kipling

Now this is the Law of the Jungle -- as old and as true as the sky;
And the Wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the Wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk the Law runneth forward and back --
For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.

Wash daily from nose-tip to tail-tip; drink deeply, but never too deep;
And remember the night is for hunting, and forget not the day is for sleep.
The Jackal may follow the Tiger, but, Cub, when thy whiskers are grown,
Remember the Wolf is a Hunter -- go forth and get food of thine own.
Keep peace withe Lords of the Jungle -- the Tiger, the Panther, and Bear.
And trouble not Hathi the Silent, and mock not the Boar in his lair.
When Pack meets with Pack in the Jungle, and neither will go from the trail,
Lie down till the leaders have spoken -- it may be fair words shall prevail.
When ye fight with a Wolf of the Pack, ye must fight him alone and afar,
Lest others take part in the quarrel, and the Pack be diminished by war.
The Lair of the Wolf is his refuge, and where he has made him his home,
Not even the Head Wolf may enter, not even the Council may come.
The Lair of the Wolf is his refuge, but where he has digged it too plain,
The Council shall send him a message, and so he shall change it again.
If ye kill before midnight, be silent, and wake not the woods with your bay,
Lest ye frighten the deer from the crop, and your brothers go empty away.
Ye may kill for yourselves, and your mates, and your cubs as they need, and ye can;
But kill not for pleasure of killing, and seven times never kill Man!
If ye plunder his Kill from a weaker, devour not all in thy pride;
Pack-Right is the right of the meanest; so leave him the head and the hide.
The Kill of the Pack is the meat of the Pack. Ye must eat where it lies;
And no one may carry away of that meat to his lair, or he dies.
The Kill of the Wolf is the meat of the Wolf. He may do what he will;
But, till he has given permission, the Pack may not eat of that Kill.
Cub-Right is the right of the Yearling. From all of his Pack he may claim
Full-gorge when the killer has eaten; and none may refuse him the same.
Lair-Right is the right of the Mother. From all of her year she may claim
One haunch of each kill for her litter, and none may deny her the same.
Cave-Right is the right of the Father -- to hunt by himself for his own:
He is freed of all calls to the Pack; he is judged by the Council alone.
Because of his age and his cunning, because of his gripe and his paw,
In all that the Law leaveth open, the word of your Head Wolf is Law.
Now these are the Laws of the Jungle, and many and mighty are they;
But the head and the hoof of the Law and the haunch and the hump is -- Obey!"

9/2/2011 2:28:36 PM

^I think welcome to the jungle coincides w/ that poem though...i dunno we'll see

9/2/2011 2:29:24 PM

i know it's not directly related but it's obvious they're going with that whole theme

[Edited on September 2, 2011 at 2:30 PM. Reason : (trust me)]

[Edited on September 2, 2011 at 3:06 PM. Reason : also, canesvision has a new producer, so things could change (for better/worse)]

9/2/2011 2:29:29 PM

is the entrance video on YouTube or anything?

9/4/2011 12:34:09 AM

I thought it was great.

9/4/2011 12:37:45 AM

yeah it was solid.

now athletics needs to work it out with canesvision and get the HD cameras over there

9/4/2011 9:17:34 AM

It was alright, except the player that shouted the second line incoherently. I literally burst out laughing at his attempt to be tough and intense. Also, is it really that difficult to chant in a group and keep the words together? Churches and cults have been doing it for centuries.

9/4/2011 9:42:53 AM

^I agree. It was cool except my whole section couldn't understand a word they were saying. obviously, we knew what they were supposed to be saying. It is the same thing with the segment where they have the players answering questions. You can't understand anything. You'd think they would finally get the PA system right after all these years.

The 2nd guy in the intro yelled and screamed the 2nd verse and then the group at the end was all out of sync.

Also, it would be cool if the players ran out during the buildup at the entrance to the song... instead, the song goes off and then the players run out

9/4/2011 10:10:16 AM

I think each player video was filmed separately and the final part was the individual videos meshed together and they tried to get the timing right.

9/4/2011 10:15:21 AM

initial youtube video search finds that no one has filmed&uploaded a video as of yet

9/4/2011 10:32:21 AM

okay what i've been able to cobble together here

the players are all reading parts of the kipling piece... then it crescendos as they're all added together

then they play welcome to the jungle?

9/4/2011 10:35:56 AM

Yes

Right after they finish the quote, all the players howl and then it goes straight to the song.

9/4/2011 10:37:24 AM

if i remember correctly, they don't play the part of the song with lyrics...??? Or do they? I can't remember

i was going to video the whole thing but forgot my flip camera at home and my cell doesn't take good video.

i'll get it at the next home game in 2 weeks

9/4/2011 10:43:53 AM

In other words: Good idea, shitty execution.

9/4/2011 10:56:28 AM

we have got to have some of the worst football/basketball entrance videos.

cheesy
cheap
uncoordinated
bad directing

9/20/2011 1:11:25 PM

That's, uh, pretty good actually.

9/20/2011 1:13:02 PM

what is good about it?

the cheap and cheesy graphics?
the uncoordinated speech?
the weak/conversational style voices used for reading lines?
the unintelligible yelling?
the camera ride through an anus?
the overused song?
the cheesy speech?
the cheesy howl?

9/20/2011 1:15:01 PM

The only issue I have with it is the horrible "howl." No one really does that...

9/20/2011 1:15:11 PM

It's a football entrance video, not a Sundance entry

At least we don't have a Polar Bear flying a jet through outer space

Or Mr. Wuf playing a guitar wearing sunglasses

I like the ending to the 2010 intro better. Embed if you like.

What about giant basketball players running through Raleigh or Chuck Amato's Corvette?

9/20/2011 1:26:08 PM

I like it. only things worth redoing are the guys reading the lines. I'd like to see it more dark and menacing.

9/20/2011 1:37:59 PM

Like it. It was a good idea for the jungle parallel. The reading is bad but these are football players not voice actors. Howl was lame.

always expect ecu to have a video like this

9/20/2011 1:48:23 PM

The intro has worked really well for both games so far. I'm not sure why they didn't set it up so the guys were all saying the last couple of lines at the same time but oh well.

9/20/2011 2:02:21 PM

^ x 5 Yeah, the ending on the 2010 entrance was much better. Our football entrance videos could be a lot better, in my opinion. This year's isn't bad though.

[Edited on September 20, 2011 at 2:40 PM. Reason : .]

9/20/2011 2:39:14 PM

I like the other video they play better...

the one that ends with "Gameday at Carter-Finley">....it is 10x better

also, how hard would it be to get those guys to read the lines better and get it more in-sync. seems like they just did it once and then said, ok that is good enough

9/20/2011 4:43:34 PM

It was probably the 50th or so take. We're not dealing with Mensa candidate athletes here.

9/20/2011 4:46:06 PM

The Gameday in Carter-Finley video is also pretty good. I like this year's intro, I don't get the hate. The only negative is the players not "reading the lines at the same time" but if you record them separately you can only get it so synchronized...

There should be a slight change in how all this stuff looks... CanesVision's old producer left (I think...), so there could be some new ideas being thrown in here...
