You may not be far off. The telecast had many of the marks of a fledgling broadcasting department experimenting: the bad camera placement, limited equipment, no real producer/director, no close-ups, no replays, an announcer who really sounded inexperienced, lack of stats. Maybe McNeese thought it would give them some needed experience, exposure and revenue. They were airing local commercials. Don't be too hard on them. One has to start somewhere. At least we got to see the LVs play.I’ve seen much better. Don’t knock high school broadcasters!![]()

I didn't mean to seem critical. I just used your post to "bounce" off of. My favorite part was when someone would hit the ball, and the camera would stay focused on the hitter and not where the ball was going. Or when the announcer didn't know what the score was. Great stuff. Presumably, the producers will do a post-mortem.Thank you for your patience!
I was actually referring to higher quality high school broadcasts albeit by announcers and staff with years of experience!![]()
No offense taken. You seemed to have nailed the situation.I didn't mean to seem critical. I just used your post to "bounce" off of.
