Hawk is no Santo but he is also no Hawk any more. His constant usage of "Stretch" and "just missed it" is getting as old as he is. And while I realize he has to be tactful when calling games, he doesn't have to insult our intelligence with BS.
Stone Poney can go, too. I've seen eels with better personalities. |

Get a play by play announcer, and let the color guy add insight. With the White Sox playing the way they are right now I can no longer stomach Harrelson and his complete suffocation of my ability to watch a baseball game without feeling like I'm at a second job. |

It probably keeps them from killing each other.

I just can't understand the Hawk hate. I'd love to have someone like Vin Scully, but watch a Cubs, Reds, or Tigers broadcast (like I get here in NE Indiana) and those guys will put you to sleep faster than a "you can put it on the board."

Allow me to explain my "Hawk Hate" in a nutshell; From the minute the camera goes on him, he starts: (1) Editorializing (2) Opining (3) Reminiscing (4) Fantasizing (5) Overanalyzing (6) Making up crap (7) Toting the company line (8) Making excuses (9) Trumping himself up (10) Saying things with zero conversational hook (11) Acting like he invented baseball (12) Acting like he's the smartest guy in the room (13) Presenting obscurity as if it's wisdom (14) Dominating the atmosphere in the booth (15) Feigning emotion (16) Complaining about the umpires (17) Crying about bad luck He's gone to so many image iterations over the years HE may not even be sure who he is anymore. Very much like a chameleon his colors will change when the situation calls for it - the only certainty with him will always be a self-promoting angle. |

You haven't watched any TB Rays games. Staats and Anderson are so bad I have started to pull for the Rays opponents.

I haven't watched many, but I've seen a few. Wish I could remember what I thought of them. Ever since a certain website went down I haven't watched many games that aren't on WCIU or WGN.

He's not there yet, but he's getting close. It's depressing enough to watch the Sox these days and Hawk makes it so much worse with all of his nonsense. Whether it is his constant complaining about umpiring or his annoying catchphrases, his whole act is worn out.
