Honestly what negative impact would having the video on YouTube have? I understand if the family wouldn't Want someone making money on it, but it's YouTube.

Meaning of the video was captured. Im sure the Pontiff family and all involved are greateful.

That being said, that video was painful to watch. No flow, music cuts in and out.

I do have a question about the 7th inning ceremony. I never noticed in the past but, is it a planned thing for the visiting team to stay in their dugout during the singing and the playing og the video?

Thanks, I've been to every one so far but, I guess i just never noticed that part.

on a side note, the little girl who sang God Bless America was really good.

Don't worry. Some will want our new hoops coach fired the same afternoon he is introduced.

Again if you read my initial post I told the family that if they wanted to sell the copy for the FOUNDATION then I would gladly make them. However, I have never been asked if it can be duplicated and until it is done by the family I will honor that.

That video they has been playing for a long time and the person that commented on it for being hard to watch due to editing obviously has no idea what they are saying. I can assure you it is top-notch quality . I would never had given a "gift" to the family that wasnt.

I listened to the music and stuff on 98.1.......would love to see the video but understand why you are honoring the Pontiff's in this case.

Maybe you could ask them if it could be a topic every year on TD as a memorium of his death (in honor)and show the video here.

It would be appreciated by us Tiger Fans to remember a great LSU player who left this world much too soon.

It used to be on YouTube but I had it removed. You see I am the one who made that video for Mr. Wally, Mrs. Terry, Nick & Haley. The family are the only ones that have a copy and I told them that if they wanted to re-produce it for the foundation that would be fine. But, just like I thought, they never have and until they do....I will never make a copy!


What's the big deal about it being on YouTubes?


Because that is part of what makes it special.

Merlin, thanks for the video bud. That is very cool and I have enjoyed it at the Classic.

what part makes it special?

I dont get it. From all indications it's a great video tribute to a beloved tiger that gets played in front of a sell out crowd every year.

I don't understand why it's not ok to be on youtube, but it's ok to be played in front of a baseball crowd
