    I'm sure he helps but he bugs me for some reason.

    I enjoyed it. "Attack the Process" is important in athletics, especially in regards to all aspects of a football season. Same thing goes for "Stay Humble, Stay Hungry." If a team as whole lives up to these words, complacency won't settle in.

    As fans, the phrases are probably nothing more than fancy words. To the team, it's part of the culture to remain successful.
    Hail the BISON!!!

    Video reminds me how awesome the home playoff run has been and not to overlook any future ones.

    How about the old turf we had on the first couple playoff runs. Seems like ages ago now!

    So I rewatched it and tried to pinpoint what it is that bugs me. He emphasizes almost every word...which to me loses the effect.

    It honestly would be better with no voice over at all. Just show the highlights, fire up the rousing music and let er go. (aka, use the RTO "date night" methodology).
    Sioux SUCK! It just has a nice ring to it.

    I have heard Ben speak in person. He is a motivational speaker therefore he emphasis on words more than a regular speaker. He has a good message and I think it is used to provide inspiration to the team but also trying to keep them humble of past accomplishments. With is voice over on the video or if there was nothing but rousing music, either way the hair stands up on the back of my neck. It is playoff football in the Fargodome and the Bison are ready. ARE US FANS READY???? Lets do this. Go Bison, The March is On!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Don't be fooled...RTO has motivational tapes that he listens to prior to date night as in:

    YOU can DO THIS! YOU ARE good ENOUGH. YOU ARE smart ENOUGH! AND gosh DARN it, PEOPLE like YOU! Your WIFE might DREAM about OTHER MEN, but SHE is STUCK with YOU! JUST keep TRYING! SHE will EVENTUALLY be HALF asleep AND ACCIDENTALLY say YES!

    Listen, you 2 jackwads. I share my secrets with you, and this is how you repay me? By broadcasting it all over THE VILLE?

    For the record, "rousing music" and "motivational tapes" are code for "hookers and blow." A guy has to have standards.

    Have you considered a career as a motivational speaker analyst?
