Pat-

B/C I was so curious about this, I emailed the UNION SID and got this response:

"There was no change. They may have mentioned the "Fighting Dutchman Gridiron Club" and considered it that way.
Long night, tough loss."

There is the official answer.  Announcers need to check on nicknames b4 going on the air, just like they need to know the officials' signals and the yaradge on a football field.

Thanks..I thought all those years as the PA for the hoops teams I should have been saying Shooting Dutchmen..and soccer was Kicking Dutchmen..etc

Did we lose the picture?  if not or even so and someone knows...what is the score?

I'll take a hit on the Fighting Dutchmen (although still don't believe it or like it!)...but the things I said about the PxP are just crazy..especially when he got ANOTHER call wrong by the officials!!

First of all I am happy tobe watching, but theses guys better get some things straight.  When did U become the FIGHTING Dutchmen?  I was the PA announcer for four years for hoops at U (90-94) and we were NOT the FIghting Dutchmen!

Second, in the first quarter, the PxP guy could not get the yardage correct.  Said Union had first down at the 2 when it was at the 7. 

Finally, he did not know the ref's signals...saying U was being called for a Delay of Game after a time out when it was a false start.
I mean these are simple thngs..CMON!!
