Can we get anything right

Can't tear down goal posts. So wrong. World. Is. Ending.

Here is my take, first time back in a few years (but we are 3-0 in my last three pilgrimages back):

What we did well:
1. Second half
2. Weather
3. Sam, Lazard, Bibbs

What drove me nuts:
1. Why are we completely going overkill on the tornado siren before the players take the field? I remember a decade ago with the animation of the I-35 sign getting twisted around, thought that would still beat what was shown today.
2. Love the band, but that medley at the end of the half blending the traditional songs was... not good.
3. Way too difficult to find the down and distance in the chaos on the north end display. Easier to find the first aid stations.
4. (This is a 10+ year problem) Why do we even bother giving in game running scores on the black/red banner signs? Update them more than once a game please! And now we show short tv clips? Weird.
5. Whether you love it or hate it, don't cut off Sweet Caroline after one stanza.
6. The cheerleader/Jimmy John's ad live shots. Just felt like we have completely sold out there after seeing that the second time.

Honestly, any day with a W is a good day though. Still work to do for JP and crew.

Your 8th post better have numbered pros and cons otherwise you'll lose credibility.

I just wish that whoever is doing the audio will pay more attention to the ebbs and flows of the crowd as there were a couple times today where there was a good cyclone power chant only to have it drowned out by the random music. That is one thing I really appreciate about soccer matches is that the crowd really dictates the atmosphere with little to no added music.
