Certainly not, if you're a play-by-play or color analyst. Players don't hear such things until they see/hear a recording after the game.

However, when you're a PA announcer, making such comments to a crowd could easily distract a player, and that's indeed unsporting, IMO. That's not the role of the PA announcer. From me, I'd tell game management "not again" once. After this, citing 2-8-1, removal and/or a T is justified, I say.
