Didn't they try this awhile back? They had a poll as to what the song would be? And most people wanted to keep the organ.
I love that we're one of the few teams remaining that still use an organ. It's tradition. It may not be 'cool' in the modern sense, but it's cool to me because that's the soundtrack to good memories. I don't want our version of 'Chelsea effin' Dagger.' I want the organ.

Only reason I could see them wanting to do this is to cut costs. You already pay the person who plays music during play breaks on top of the organist. If you play a recorded track, you eliminate the cost of the organist. But Stillman revels in the history of the Blues. This goes beyond money. The organ is the Blues.

If your last sentence is true, this is a non-starter. The money saved would be a pittance.
If money is the problem, then fire Louie and keep the damn organ. This is a no-brainer.

What the heck? They didn't nickel and dime Sobotka and Schwartz enough, now they're going after the organ guy?

Don't tell me what to tweet, Chris Kerber! I'll tweet about organs all I want to!
It's funny how quickly people jumped on this though.
