    What was that junk from the Todd Squad last night? That intro was worthy of a preseason game where they're using leftover video from last year. We had a little smoke and some spotlights, and a completely boring intro video. That wasn't even college level excitement.

    Yeah, and was left thinking 'that was it?'. Not sure if the redesigned fan store cut into the game ops budget or what.

    I liked the heartbeat with the logo lighting up at center court but it kind of fizzled out after that. Pretty disappointing.

    Their intros have always been cheesy, especially with Paul Allens (I guess?) love affair with the drum thing.

    HCP has nothing to do with that.

    Or the opening intro.

    Then I suggest you see a show put on by a different Todd Squad.

    I enjoyed the smoke but the intros didn't pump me or any of my family up.

    I liked how in years past the players would come through the 100 level seats onto the court.

    I always worried one would trip and break his knee.

    This. I was just happy to see them NOT navigate a flight of stairs in the fucking dark.

    I liked the beginning with the heartbeat in center court. My wife even said cool, came over to watch....and then said "that's it?" Game was good so whatever.

    The lit up tunnel they had a couple years ago was sick. Where'd that go?

    I noticed playoff intros last year was crap too. Guess McGowen is too busy.

    So it wasn't just me. For a season home opener, thought that was terrible. Some years have been quite good.....this wasn't one of those seasons

    So you must not be into foreplay?
