*Nederland @ Vidor Broadcast THREAD*/ NEDERLAND WINS 6-2!!!!!

[1696dogs]

Our announcer has NEVER made a comment like the ones made by the Vidor announcer. Saying 'the umpires are going to need a police escort tonight' is about as tacky as it gets. I think the announcer is lucky they didn't here him on the field. He may have had to join the asst coach.  And by the way, I very much respect Kyle Green when it comes to his coaching abilities and I understand the reason he got upset, but that's his job to appeal not the announcers.

i've heard "tacky" comments from announcers at nederland baseball and football games.... mainly football games. it doesn't seem as "tacky" when it's your announcers and your team and you are the one on the wrong side of a call. you mostly remember the ones when you're the visitor. it shouldn't happen, but it does on occasion. it's not like this is the first time it has occurred.

I'm not going to argue abour it but football and baseball are completely different. Baseball is more a gentlemen's sport with an unspoken code of ethics. But you're right,  I'm sure when you're a visitor you do notice more.

props go out to schlett...that hit was the difference in the game. big hit in a big situation. he's definitely a player.

You've never heard comments even remotely close to what was said by the Vidor announcer last night at  Nederland baseball games.  I can't attest to football.  Vidor ISD should be embarassed and the administrator on duty needed to grow a pair after the first comment and take  control before the 2nd comment regarding umps needing an escort was made.  The announcer is a hypocrite....read a list of rules and be the first to violate them. Quit trying to excuse poor and unprofessional behavior. 

Now the players played hard and this issue is taking away from that fact.  Good luck to Vidor as they move forward and Go Dogs!

Vidor fans aren't happy, but that was the right call.

it was the right call if you're a nederland fan, and i do agree the announcer was out of line, but i've heard worse from nederland announcers

I just can't believe we are looking at fourth place and having to face the district champion from 19. This is not a good way to get the playoffs started. I was expecting to play the 2nd or even 3rd seed and have a much easier time getting our first playoff series win, getting on a role and making a run. Now that is in jepordy.

It was the right call no matter which team you root for.  The runner acted as if he was going to make a play on the ball for no other reason than to distract the fielder.  Maybe MrUmp can post the rule on here so you can read it.

The Vidor coaches were upset that it wasn't called immediately when it happened, and took an appeal to get it overturned.  Any coach is going to argue if a call is overturned, but the right call was made in the end.

If there is runner interference on a force play, then two will be called out. Doesn't matter if it happens at the bag or not. I wasn't there did not see the play just going by what I have been told.

that's what i was trying to say, i was annoyed that the call took so long, call it when it happens or don't call it at all imo, i wasnt tryin to say it was a bad call, just tryin to say that the way it was handled was bad.
my bad, should have clarified that more in my previous post

It's easy to make the statement " I've heard worse from Nederland announcers".  But could you be a little more specific.  What have you heard from Nederland announcers?
