AggiesAreWe Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 A public address announcer is to NEVER offer his opinion over the air, particularly if it's negative, criticle talk. A PA is just to give the facts.Now us broadcasters, we can be a little biased sometimes but that comes with being a home broadcast. ;) ;D

I did not see any irrate Ned fans after the game.[/quote]wow...took the words right outta my mouth. that was my exact interpretation of the game. i was a little irate about those two calls and at the time smith was making our kids look pretty bad at the plate. it seemed as if vidor was getting the raw end of the deal on ball and strike calls, but armstrong just wasn't as precise with his pitches. (couldn't get his curve ball up) of course there was some jawing during the 7 run inning from nederland fans, but nothing that i saw that was out of line. btw, i watched the bottom of the 4th while standing between the visitors bleachers as i was working my way out to get my kid home. also, i'm a little confused about the "guy working the clock" comment.
