Apparently they are saying that players will wait to hear their song, the stroll out to the plate and stand with one foot out of the batter's box waiting for the song to finish.
Meanwhile once a runner gets on base the pitcher can wonder around the mound like an Alzheimer's patient.

When did getting pumped up make someone tense?

You have no point, other than the fact that you are an idiot that is pulling half of a quote to try and make your point.

If a major college athlete needs a piece of a song to get him pumped up and focused enough to play, then something is not right with the picture.

Some of you are so stupid. Why exactly is it that about 75% of the guys in the NFL are running around warm ups with head phones on? Why do you think LSU plays so much rap in the stadium before football games and during football games? Do you think its for the white haired cocksuckers that bitch and moan about the horrible music? Athletes like music. Its amusing how some of you find a problem with athletes getting psyched up for a big game or at bat with music.
ETA: But you're probably right. Everytime Trevor Hoffman took the mound to Hell's Bells, I'm sure it was just for fun for the fans.
ETA2: More for you retards that think its all for a laugh for walk up songs.

When he was with the New York, N.Y. Yankees, the journeyman DH/first baseman shocked his teammates by choosing this tweenie bopper favorite. But he had a good excuse: It was his 4-year-old daughter's favorite song.
People get pumped up/focused in different ways. If you don't think a player pays attention to the music, you're an idiot.

I don't care what the athletes do to get psyched up...I just think the incessant discussion of their walk up music is juvenille...who cares? Next thing you know, threads are going to pop up about Zach Mettenberger's isolation chamber on the sidelines or the price of chicken fingers at the ball park....

Then why are you arguing that there is something wrong with players using music to get psyched up as in your previous post?
And why are you bitching about the music being played in the stadium?

All I did was point out that a lot of the times, it is for the players, not the fans. You, along with a couple other boneheads felt the need to argue with the fact that players use music to get pumped up.
Seriously, you are cracking me up though.

Joey bourgeois has the best walk-out song.
Posted on 2/18/13 at 10:18 am to GeauxGrobek
I don't know about anyone else but regardless of the song type I wanted anything that got my blood flowing and made my skin tingle and it did anything but make me tense. It made me in a zone to where I was fully visualizing the game and completely pumped. When I didn't have that is when I would be when I was more like a concrete statue because I was thinking to hard. Anything to relieve some of that tension and release some of those butterflies. Some of you need to pull that stick out of your arse and try to remember that what they are doing is not easy especially in front of a lot of judgmental assholes. If they have to put on a fricking pair of ballet slippers and dance through the dugout to loosen up then you should support that. None of you bastards had any problem with Gausman eating donuts during a game to stay focused why should this be any different.

Wow...who knew the power of the walk-up song...I had no idea. I need to get a walk-up song for when I go to a bar and try to talk to a girl...

One post you are saying you don't care what a player does to get psyched up and the next you are mocking someone talking about a walk up song.
Quit being such a fricking pussy. Players like walk up songs. Most players choose something meaningful to them. It doesn't need to be meaningful to you.

Just keep filling up water bottles. Anybody who played anything well knows that feeling I am talking about. It pumps me up now to where I can barely think about how to put a sentence together. The feeling is overwhelming that's why you see guys get their arse knocked off in football and jump up like nothing happened. Their head is there and they have huge amounts of adrenaline flowing through their veins. You think Mahtook used to stand up and scream after a sick catch for the fans entertainment or because he just robbed someone's effort? Keep trying to be a reserved little hard arse everyone thinks your cool.

Just telling you what it feels like you don't have to like it or agree just recognize that it is real and everyone feels it. I have not met many players that meditate before a game in complete silence.

What he said made perfect sense. Most athletes use music exactly in the way he just described.

I'd like to get Chipper Jones' input on this. That man loved him some crazy train and he was a half decent hitter I think.
