Demo video
I'm not sure what music works best but here's a few demos of what I'm capable of. Benny Hill is also an option, but I don't have it on the computer I made those on. So...any comments? Also, get me some more clips people, I can make a whole montage of this with words over the top and stuff. Also, I'll place the clips more in time to the music when I make a final version.

Much as I hate the song
It was really really perfect for the vid.
Coach/Butthol '09: We shall overcome.
The intro promises a lot
And then after a while you realize that’s all that happens in the entire song.
Coach/Butthol '09: We shall overcome.
Yeah especially that Super Bowl that they lost.

I'm not sure which Superbowl you're referring to.
The Seahawks have never been to a Superbowl.
Another suggestion, just if you want to prolong the video without repeating through the carousel of bad plays.
Just add pictures/video of Raul standing around looking like a moron. You know, like the one with him sticking his hands down his pants. That’ll work.
Agreed with this
I really like the werewolves of london and song 2 bit. I still think you should take other clips from games and try to make a story out of it rather than just random clips of Rauuuuuul botching plays.

That's the plan, I just don't have the clips yet.

YES YES YES
All of those were great, can’t wait until there are more plays to expand on this.
You need hilarious music, yes?
Try this.
Stuck with You – Huey Lewis and the News: You can show a bad Raul play, and then cut to Squnity shrugging and smiling.
Together Forever – Rick Astley: See above.
and my personal favorite…
Break My Stride – Matthew Wilder: Just listen to the song. You’ll realize why it’s a hilarious choice.
I also would like some video of McLaren at a press conference if possible.
I will put the quote “We’re happy with our outfield defense”—John McLaren there.
This can be 2008 Mariner themed, not just Raul themed as well. If anyone has any requests…my video editor is old and I can only run .avi’s on it (Unless someone wants to hook me up with Pinnacle Studio 12 with a crack, I’m too lazy to find a good pirated version) so that’s the restriction but if you’ve got the footage I can make a video

I agreed with that video in it's entirety
when it came out. That was a long time ago. Since then, they have switched to a Unix based OS that is far more stable and switched to Intel processors, also far more stable. I LOATHED Macs when I used them in school (we called those old ones Crapinsloths) but they have become far more stable, reliable machines than PCs running Windows. If it makes you feel any better, you can load Windows onto a Mac and it will crash just as often. But the games will run faster (while they are running)

That said
Final Cut Studio is so buggy and bloated that I sometimes feel it was secretly made by Adobe. Files get corrupted often enough to require reinstalls, reinstalls that won’t work unless every sign of FCS has been scrubbed from every corner of the system, so much so that someone eventually made a third party program that does nothing except remove every trace of FCS.
What the fuck is wrong with me?
I’ll blame it on the bad season. The Mariners suck so badly I feel compelled to talk operating systems on a baseball website. Strasburgstrasburgstrasburgstrasburgstrasburgstrasburgstrasburgstrasburgstrasburgstrasburgstrasburgstrasburgstrasburgstrasburgstrasburgstrasburgstrasburgstrasburg…
What the hell did you do to your FC?
Mine works great and I have a failing video card. Never in 10 years have I had a corrupted file (ok maybe once but that was like FC 4)
And don’t get me started with adobe. There installer = The devil.

Jl/Robert '08: Promise for a CoachCage on Friday nights!
I would recommend buying a 1050 dollar Macbook instead
Its not just the OS thats better, but the whole computer, from the outside beauty, to its intel processor runs so smoothly, I haven’t yet had an issue that I would normally have with a PC.

My next laptop is going to be a Lenovo X300 with XP installed on it.
My R50P has been a workhorse. I can’t bring myself to stray away from Thinkpads.
I'll take the X300 (or any Thinkpad) any day.
Simple industrial design, top-notch specifications, and it takes a beating. I’m a sucker for that black matte finish.
Also,
I suggest you check this out before hating on Macs

Unicorn Deer
Thought this would interest LFOJL, since it is real and all.
Jl/Robert '08: Promise for a CoachCage tomorrow!
Also, may I ask
How the fuck do people confuse a single horned deer for a single horned horse? They look nothing alike jesus christ…This news story is really pissing me off.
Considering that the "common wisdom"
is that they got the idea from freaking narwhals, which aren’t exaclty native to the Mediterranean where most of these legends come from (not to mention being marine mammals larger than a horse), I’ll take the deer idea.

I do all of my serious photography work with an even older 700 Mhz G4 tower. I’d like to upgrade to a multi-processor or multi-core processor, but it’d only be for a little more speed.

More requests:
How about “Rauuuuuuul” on the scoreboard, Some face shots (Even if it’s walking up to the plate that’s fine, I don’t have to show him hitting), maybe the picture they use when he comes to bat? Him just messing around or any sort of dumbassery not always related to his defense would be nice too. I’ve got time to fill here.

Awesome job.
However, I think you should keep it Raul-only. He’s provided so much goldmine material (including his awesome drop today). There’s enough material for a mariners highlight reel, sure, but Raul deserves a video dedicated to him.
After seeing tonight's GIFs of the all around horrendous defense
I think you should make a movie that shows the whole team’s shitty defense which is why the team has such a bad record. But a special emphasis on Raul of course.
Jl/Robert '08: Promise for a CoachCage on Friday nights!
I can't stop laughing at the first 'ball in the corner' play where he runs into the wall
BAHAHA
I fucking hate you Mariners
sadly if you get every single Raul screw up of '08
the video would be like 10 minutes long at regular speed.
