Do you like the idea of the Titans having the Haka as a pregame ritual?

    In an effort to make this happen

    I bring to you, The Haka.



    The Haka is a Polynesian dance warriors used hundreds of years ago to intimidate their enemies, it was also to ward off any fears the warriors themselves may have had.

    Over the years all types of sports teams have exhibited using the Haka to gain an edge going into games.

    I think if the Titans lined up for all to see and did some version of this dance it could make things quite interesting.

    As for that idea one poster had of giving fans swords..... Watch this and tell me if that's still a good idea.

    Just imagine what Blaine Gabbert would do once he saw this. He'd just turn around and hide for 3 hours.

    Well, I don't want Gabbert to hide. I like seeing him on the field. I call it the Collins effect for opposing teams.

    Maybe as a joke. The idea if our players doing that gives me a strong feeling of shame, not fear

    I could see our guys going out there and doing the Bernie or the Dougie before they would do that. It ain't hip hop enough for our guys.

    He deserved to get hit by a bus simply by being a UT fan.

    They should do this one instead. Aztecs are super scary



    Ohh wait, it's not the dance, it is the fact that they tie down people and cut out their hearts.

    I'm more for fear by our actions, not our dancing.

    Funniest part of the Haka video is when they show the other team looking all intimidated. I would be laughing my *** off. I just don't get how that is intimidating at all.

    I was a wrestler in highschool and succeeded at high levels. In wrestling, teams try the intimidation stuff alot. If a team did this before a match I would fall out of my seat in laughter.

    The Haka is the best pre-game moment in sports.
