Did it take you guys forever to load the video? I've been waiting like half an hour, and have maybe half of it so far.

Actually, that song has been played right before they leave every football and basketball game for decades......

I never got any video...just a picture of the team, the audio of the interview with the players... and Shanty Town of course. Is there more?

That is what I did, but all I got is what I reported above. What is the video portion...the video of the interview?

4/4/06 Well it helps to have the right softwear. Great video and interesting history lesson.

Yes it is, and give SMU some credit too...Videographer/Reporter: Alumnus Ted Gangi (former webmaster - Mustang Maniacs.com); Gerry York, Smu Heritage Hall Committee; Brad Sutton, SMU Media Relations; Don Hopkins and Tommy Tucker, Mustang Band were all involved with putting that piece together too.

This was an outstanding piece. Kudos to the DMN for giving a significant amount of bandwidth to SMU.
