Hah on the air.
Hah on the air.
If Mr. Bitter is calling these games for 1420, I may have to tune in to just listen to him. I could care less about the Wildcatters, but his calling of games is priceless. That AHS state championship game a few years ago was an epic radio call.
I just hope they don't give him the live mic like they did at the first home game. Volume was way too loud and he just would NOT shut up. Occassional chants or cheers are ok, but this dude sounded like he was just talkin to hear his own voice. kinda annoying.
anyhoo, lemme stop raggin' on the guy and say that i do enjoy listening to him on teh radio, and i'm sure his play by play would be interesting to listen to.
GEAUX WILDCATTERS!!!!!!!!
God Bless
Dude, it was amazing. Words can't describe, the guy just has a way about it. I still talk about it every now and then with a few of my co-workersQuote:

LAFAYETTE, LA (JUNE 12, 2010) – The Albany Panthers (7-2) of the Southern Indoor Football League failed to clinch home-field advantage after becoming another victim in the Cajun Dome losing to the Lafayette Wildcatters (5-4) on Saturday night 48-46.
Coming out of the gates quick, Albany’s scored on a Juan Bongarra uno and capitalized on a Jermaine Collins interception when quarterback Cecil Lester hit Offensive Player of the Week Clenton Rafe for the games first touchdown giving the Panthers an early 8-0 lead.
Following the interception, Lafayette quarterback Juan Joseph didn’t’ need long to regain his composure hooking up with Clevan White to get the Wildcatters on the board. Since taking over the starting duties, Joseph has led the Wildcatters on a magical ride and Saturday night was no different. Against the SIFL’s top ranked pass defense, he finished the night completing 20 of 31 passes for 225 yards and three touchdowns.

Midway through the second quarter, Lafayette gained its first lead thanks to a Kwame Jordan blocked field goal giving his club the ball at the Albany 10. Joseph found Clyde Edwards in the end zone for the first of two hook-ups and coupled with a Sean Comiskey uno the Wildcatters took a 22-15 lead.
Lafayette opened the 3rd quarter with a 29-22 lead and squashed Albany’s opening second half drive with an interception by Mitch Craft. The Wildcatters capitalized on the Craft turnover when fullback Steven Korte ran it in from four-yards out, his first of two touchdowns, putting his club in front 36-22.
Heading into the final quarter the Catters skated out to a 41-22 lead and would spend the majority of the fourth defending the lead beginning with Panthers quarterback Cecil Lester finding Antwone Savage for a 21-yard touchdown reception. Coupled with a Bongarra uno, the Panthers only found themselves down by 10 with 11 minutes remaining.
The swarming Panthers defense smelled blood when the Joseph fumbled the ball back in the end zone only to luckily recover it and only allow Albany the safety. On ensuing drive Albany’s Lester once again found Clenton Rafe, this time from eight yards out giving getting his club within one at 41-40.
Lafayette answered back with a quick drive that ended on Korte doing a spider-man impersonation touchdown run that saw him go sideways into the end zone giving Lafayette the 48-40 lead. Using the final five minutes, Albany drove down the field setting up a potential game-tying drive and with: 30 left Lester lofted the ball into the sure hands of John Harris in the back of the end zone for the score.
Needing two points to tie, Lafayette’s defense stood tall forcing Lester to throw a desperation pass that sailed through the back of the end zone. The Catters recovered the ensuing on-side kick attempt to secure the 48-46 victory.
Riding the coattails of a four-game winning streak, next Saturday Lafayette will host the Columbus Lions (6-3) while the Panthers will try to clinch home-field next weekend when they travel to take on the Greenville Force (2-7).

If home is where the heart is; the Lafayette Wildcatters (5-4) hearts are all in the Cajundome as the Wildcatters remained undefeated at home last Saturday, with a 48-46 win over the Albany Panthers (7-2).
Coach Skip Foster continues to be pleased with the Wildcatters performance, “There’s no doubt that we’re playing good football right now. But playing good football was our expectation.”
With last Saturday’s victory the Wildcatters have clinched a playoff berth, but now they are hungry for more, and that is a home playoff game. A win this week versus the Columbus Lions (6-3) would pull the Wildcatters in to a tie for second place in the league. The top two teams in the league host the opening round playoff games.
When the two teams met on April 24, 2010, the Wildcatters played one of their worse games of the season, a 54-26 loss. Coach Foster was quick to point out that the Lions and there Coach Jason Gibson had a hand in the Wildcatters poor performance. “Coach Gibson is a good football coach. He schemes very well, and they had a good plan in that game. This week we will have to be ready for some new looks on both offense and defense as Coach Gibson will change things up.”
The Lions got out to a 21-3 first quarter lead and never looked back. Columbus’ domination included 4 sacks and 4 interceptions. Lions’ quarterback Chris McCoy had a good game throwing the ball, going 19 of 37 for 257 yards and 5 touchdowns. Four different receivers caught touchdown passes, lead by Tirone Morris who had 2 touchdown catches.
This week’s game will match the two leaders in interceptions in the Southern Indoor Football League, in Columbus’ cornerback, Damian “Nighthawk” Daniels, who has 11 interceptions, and Wildcatter’s middle safety and current SIFL Defensive Player of the Week, Clarence Pendleton. Pendleton has 9 interceptions, 2 returned for touchdowns, and 151 yards in return yardage. “Nighthawk” Daniels moved in to an elite category on Saturday, June 5th, as he intercepted his 50th pass in indoor football.
Kickoff is slated for 7:05 p.m. but Wildcatter management encourages everyone to get to the Cajundome early for the pyrotechnics show before the game. The Wildcatters close out their season next Saturday on the road at the Louisiana Swashbucklers. Tickets are available at the Cajundome box office.

In what proved to be the last home game for the Lafayette Wildcatters this season, it came down to a last gasp 53-yard field goal by former UL placekicker Sean Comiskey.
But the kick would fall short, and so would the Wildcatters' comeback attempt as Columbus escaped with a 58-55 victory in Southern Indoor Football League action Saturday night in the Cajundome.
In losing their first home game after five victories, Lafayette fell to 5-5 on the season and Columbus improved to 7-3. Lafayette will not finish in the top two in the league standings and won't be able to host a potential playoff game.
Columbus clinched the two seed and Albany will be the No. 1 seed.
Lafayette will play next week in Lake Charles when it takes on the Louisiana Swashbucklers. The Wildcatters have beaten the Swashbucklers twice this season — 59-52 and 63-47.
But for the second time this season, the Wildcatters were unable to defeat the Columbus Lions, although this game was a lot closer than the earlier 54-26 loss.
Even though the game ended 58-55, the only time the Wildcatters led was early on when they used a point on the opening kickoff and a field goal by Comiskey to take a 4-0 lead.
Columbus came right back and took only five plays for their first score, a 29-yard pass from quarterback Chris McCoy to receiver Lonnell DeWalt for a 7-4 lead. It would turn out to be a lead they would not relinquish.
The 6-foot-7 DeWalt, who played collegiately at Kentucky, would continue to haunt the Wildcatters throughout the game, finishing with 10 catches for 190 yards and four touchdowns.
Lafayette was without its top defensive back, middle safety Clarence Pendleton, and Columbus was able to use it to their advantage.
The Lions opened up their biggest lead of the game at 33-12 and maintained a comfortable 36-19 lead by halftime.
The Wildcatters were able to cut it to three points twice in the second half, but could never grab back the lead.
Despite the loss, Lafayette quarterback Juan Joseph had a stellar performance. The 6-2, 195-pounder from Millsaps College threw five touchdown passes and also ran one in from seven yards out. Clyde Edwards from Grambling was his main target, catching 10 passes for 132 yards and three scores.
Columbus finished with 338 yards total offense to Lafayette's 241. The game was also a sloppy affair throughout as the two teams combined for 23 penalties for 208 yards.
