Sebastianm Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 This is for any main theme from an official broadcasting company that covers professional sports and their themes for the sports. I’ll get it it started, the NFL on NBC theme from 1995-1997 is simply spectacular! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueYankee26 Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 (edited) I agree with @Sebastianm it sounds majestic. And for its three year run it is associated with a lot of notable NFL moments: the Raiders 1st season back in Oakland, Original Browns leaving for Baltimore, the Ravens first season, and John Elway finally winning a Super Bowl.

Cujo Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 Idk about underrated, but short-lived -- this was one i wish had stuck around longer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueYankee26 Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 To think, a lot of non-RR NBC theme songs and basketball songs from 1990-2002 will be forgotten or underrated. Quote trueyankee26.wordpress.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gave my boss a proposal for a project that would modernize our data center which would reduce down time to <1%, decrease annual maintenance costs by >$5M, and enable cloud-based functionality that would revolutionize our mobile presence. Her response? "well, it's no Roundball Rock, but I guess we should do it anyway. Next time try harder." 2 1 1 Quote "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

BBTV Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 On a serious note, the Flyers used this one for a few seasons. It's very Roundball Rock-esque and I think it worked really well for a hockey broadcast: 1 Quote "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

Ferdinand Cesarano Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 The closing theme to This Week in Baseball, entitled "The Gathering Crowds", is the most inspirational piece of music I have ever heard. Not only is it beautiful in its own right (oh, those timpanis!), but it is associated with great memories of baseball's golden age. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it didn't come in till later when they really started pushing ESPNABC synergy, but I could be wrong. It does sound extremely Kalehoffian, and he was certainly doing a lot of themes in the late '80s.
