I like the idea of them playing a video for him but honestly that looks more like a Tori Amos video than a closer intro

The thing is, that’s why it’s extremely good.

i don't know who tori amos is, but i'm guessing he's a real manly singer/actor/poet/construction worker.

I want them to slowly ramp up the drama here, adding elements throughout the year. By the end, the stadium lights shut off. A hearse drives up to the mound, in complete silence. A spotlight shines on it, and the video begins. The top of the hearse opens up, and a coffin lifts up out of it slowly. The lid opens, and Robles sits up. The stadium flashes lights to simulate lightning. The back of the coffin opens up, and a ramp comes down to the ground. Robles calmly walks down the ramp, and strikes a pose on the mound. The stadium lights up, and the crowd goes wild as he takes his warm-up pitches.

All this while a horse gallops through a field and rose petals fall gently from above. And candles burn creating a soothing aromatherapy effect throughout the stadium

And someone symbolically piledrives (tombstones) a dummy into the ground.

that's why the stadium smells like patchouli oil after the 6th inning.

One change: Robles should be on the horse.

Always nice to have a Bronco fan on board.

The artwork at the Denver Airport is creepy. That blue horse with glowing red eyes is the first thing you see driving in.

I don't watch wrestling and I love this.

I've adopted this even more over the past 3 years.   I still vent, but nothing like I did back before early in the 2016 season, too old to be doing it.

He said he’s a huge fan of The Undertaker before pretending to rip off his shirt.

“The White Horse, that’s my nickname,” Robles said through a translator.

As for the slow-mo of his white shoes that kept repeating throughout the video?

“Because that’s how horses walk,” Robles said matter-of-factly.

And the candle?

“It’s always burning,” Robles said.

Angels manager Brad Ausmus was amused by the video but was more pleased Robles protected the club’s sixth straight win.

LMAO I don't give a F*ck if he is our best relief pitcher or not, he is now our closer.

[John Taylor]

I think the next obvious step would be to hire Teddy Long as the new Angels GM, Playa!

Thanks for the thread heads up @Chuckster70

I hope hansel is good when he pitches, but even if he sucks, i want him in every game. The whole idea is freaking hilarious. Its awesome because its so cheesy.

The best part is after each strike out, they put this dude in a horse mask on the big screen, and the bell rings.

[insert John Lackey joke]

[Angel Oracle]

Taker vs John Lackey.....WrestleMania 36!    Make it happen Vince McMahon!  

Why should Kane and Pete Rose have all the fun.

[ten ocho recon scout]

I read an article on it. He was asked why the video is just his feet in slo mo. He said "because thats how a horse runs"

I love this guy.
