Pimp Smack Posted October 10, 2006 Report Posted October 10, 2006 http://vidorsports.com/index06.htm THIS GUY MUST BE AN IDIOT.
bronco1 Posted October 10, 2006 Report Posted October 10, 2006 Not that it should matter to the players or make a difference in the game. The Lumberton announcers are horrible. Worst ever, uncouth, and very unsportsman. Just my opinion.
Pimp Smack Posted October 10, 2006 Author Report Posted October 10, 2006 why do you say that bronco? they might not be good at what they do, but un sportsman like? how?

I have never heard an announcer cheer and taunt over the mic. I apologize for the rude comments earlier, uncalled for. Sorry.
Pimp Smack Posted October 10, 2006 Author Report Posted October 10, 2006 come on koop. i just found it funny that they posted the wrong score and said that we said their players names wrong to mess them up.
raidernation Posted October 10, 2006 Report Posted October 10, 2006 It is called "home field" advantage. He tries to get the crowd involved. AND he even mispronounces some of our players names also so I don't think that has any impact on the game.
swampdude Posted October 10, 2006 Report Posted October 10, 2006 It might be "home field" advantage, but it is certainly a violation of UIL ethics rules. Kelly's announcer is the worst. Wait.......WOS's is the worst, and that is voted by the Mustang fans, no less!!
Tiger90 Posted October 10, 2006 Report Posted October 10, 2006 What's sadder than that is a Lumberton guy hanging out at a Vidor fan's website only to pick it apart. C'mon man be classier than that. He is just a fan stating his opinion on his site.

AND he even mispronounces some of our players names also so I don't think that has any impact on the game. I've heard this announcer. He is one sided. UIL rules say' date='"The primary function of a school public address system is to convey pertinent information about the game. Announcers are not part of the cheering section. They [u']SHOULD (not shall) never incite the emotions of the spectators." I stress SHOULD because it is your home field and with class and respect of the visiting team and fans you should be able to interact with the crowd.
Guest bc-all-the-way Posted October 11, 2006 Report Posted October 11, 2006 Kelly Announcer, by far the worst I ever heard!
PNG Proud Posted October 11, 2006 Report Posted October 11, 2006 I've heard this announcer. He is one sided. UIL rules say' date='"The primary function of a school public address system is to convey pertinent information about the game. Announcers are not part of the cheering section. They [u']SHOULD (not shall) never incite the emotions of the spectators." I stress SHOULD because it is your home field and with class and respect of the visiting team and fans you should be able to interact with the crowd. OMG!!!!!! Send a copy of that over to LCM QUICK! That dude is like a Bears chearleader on there. "Another fine run by # so and so...A GREAT catch by so and so...another huge sack for the Bears defense...." This went on all night, not to mention the fact that they would play music over the P.A. very loud while our offense was calling signals (because there wasn't enough fans to make any real noise). This guy could never be described as unbiased. I understand the "home field advantage" concept, I'm fine with it, but this gy carries it way too far. JMO

Guest GoStangs Posted October 11, 2006 Report Posted October 11, 2006 WOS's is the worst, and that is voted by the Mustang fans, no less!! Yes, ours is the worst, no doubt about it.
Pimp Smack Posted October 11, 2006 Author Report Posted October 11, 2006 what does he do that is so bad?
Guest GoStangs Posted October 11, 2006 Report Posted October 11, 2006 The thing that's completely embarrassing is when he makes sarcastic comments through the game. Other than that, he just makes a lot of mistakes when he announces ball carriers, penalties, and so on.
Pimp Smack Posted October 11, 2006 Author Report Posted October 11, 2006 Lumbertons announcer is just reaaaly bad at names. he take vidors first names and combine them with our last names.
2Cards Posted October 11, 2006 Report Posted October 11, 2006 A few weeks ago when BC's JV played in Lumberton the announcer cheered for the home team....would try and keep the home crowd stirred up....announce every "good" thing Lumberton did, but when BC had a good play, he would be silent...wouldn't say who did what or what the play even was. I don't recall an issue with calling kids' names wrong, but we all started noticing the one sided announcing. There are UIL rules about the announcers being neutral and that guy surely isn't. The Kelly announcer....he was just kind of silly. He didn't announce a one sided game when we played them. He just would say silly things...silly words and he never stopped talking. On the one sided announcing, in my opinion while it won't or shouldn't effect the outcome of a game, it does lend itself to ..........OK, I'm going to say it......sportsmanship. We try and teach the kids to respect the other team, we as fans are expected to respect the other teams fans, band, cheerleaders....etc. ........kind of hard when you have an adult with a microphone acting in an unprofessional manner.
vp93 Posted October 11, 2006 Report Posted October 11, 2006 The Lumberton announcer to me was annoying. He kept saying come on Raider fans we need to help the Raiders stop them here, all Raider fans on you feet let the Raiders know you are behind them, and hold the rope. It wasn't a big deal to me, actually it was funny the announcer having to tell the fans they needed to cheer. I also agree that it didn't show the greatest sportsmanship.
piratefan Posted October 11, 2006 Report Posted October 11, 2006 I agree..he would say "come on raidernation " get on your feet.. It was kinda sad that you have to tell your fans to get on there feet on 3rd down to hold the offense.. But he would do it all night..It didnt bother me because I only had to listen to it one night..But he shouldnt have to tell the fans to cheer.. and there is UIL rules against that..

You said what I was trying to say at the beginning os this thread. I have just never heard that before, ever.
LHSRaiderAlum Posted October 11, 2006 Report Posted October 11, 2006 Isnt the announcer from Lumberton a preacher? :? You guys are sounding more and more immature attacking the announcers.. Grow up already and for the sake of your children ----STOP EMBARRASING Them on these forums

Grow up already and for the sake of your children ----STOP EMBARRASING Them on these forumsstop embarrassing who?? all we are discussing is an announcer who is probably embarrassing his children..there was never any names of a kid mentioned or anything..we are just quoting what HE said during the game..there are other announcers who they mentioned as well.And it dont matter if he is a preacher or not
