There was an intro on ESPN, maybe 5 years ago

Foo Fighter’s “All My Life”. Perfect song for a series of images and short video clips going from tense preparation, to highlight plays. Awesome.

I dig it. Nina Symone is the shit.

And it’s kind of an “I’m totally excited but a bit tempered and cautious at the same time” mood. Like I’m feeling good, but it might not last for too long, because, you know, it’s the Mariners.
