Blake Fulton

[nsb]

Toward the end of the Pearl Cohn - Hillsboro game on Comcast Friday night, Blake Fulton made a comment that a Hillsboro player (he called him by name) was 70 yards away from his team on the sidelines talking to fans in the bleachers and not paying attention to the game. They did not show a camera shot of the player. My question is this : Is this Fulton's Job - to be a tattle tale ???

 

I just had a real problem with it. Sure it was wrong for the player to be doing this but I don't think it is/was his job to be doing the discipline for Hillsboro's football staff. He also made a comment stating "wait til coach Aydolotte sees this".

 

You would never find this happening in a college game or pros or would you ?? I mean call it like you see 'em but call the game first and foremost !!

 

He and Sperdudo are pretty awful - I think they could do a lot better

I totally agree. He should have not called this kid out. Blake Fulton is the worst announcer I have ever heard. However, I do appreciate him doing the games for these high school kids. I guess you have to start somewhere & why not high school games?

If you are calling a game shouldn't you call what you see? If a fight had broken out between the bands would you comment on that? I do not like Blake or his comments, but he is there being paid to call what he sees in this was what he saw. Leave him alone, if he was talking about some drunk guy in the parking lot that would be different.

Couldn't resist commenting here. How Blake Fulton has a job -- any job-- in this town -- or any town -- pretty much dumbfounds me.

 

Everyone I've run into where the WTN fiasco comes up that know him can not get far enough away from the guy. Being a 'tattle tale' and 'pot stirrer' puts it mildly.

 

Personally? I "met" Fulton after the Hillsboro / Overton comcast game last year and, w/o going into the details was very unimpressed.

 

For as they say, nothing lasts like a first impression.

I echo the sentiments here about Fulton. Anybody interested in guessing how long it takes until WTN fires him?!?

Blake Fulton is terrible with anything he comes in contact with. Sooner or later people are going to figure this out and Mr. Fulton will be unemployed from all the announcing jobs he now has. Hope this comes sooner for all involved. Blake if for some reason you read this i would like to know whose coattails you rode because there is no way that you got where you are on your talent.

We had a kid last week talking to someone in the stands. It was his mom and he was getting some insulin medicine from her. I guess if Blake was doing our game he could have called him out too. Blake needs to worry about the game. Sounds like he`d probably let you know if the cheerleaders messed up a stunt.
