CWSGuy406 Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Aug 8, 2007 -> 02:03 AM) Like what? "Don't tell me what a player hits...tell me when he hits it!" "He gawn!" Jim (SoxMachine Jim) just posted this over at South Side Sox and I completely agree with it: Stone makes Hawk better, too I got really tired of DJ baiting Hawk into going into the anecdote barrel. "Say, Hawk, you have to admit that the players aren't as hungry as they were in your day." They're talking about the old Orioles, but at least it relates.

Gregory Pratt Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Hawk has a reputation as a bit of a bully (see: Wimpy). I wonder how much of that has to do with his relationship with DJ on the air. I don't particularly care for DJ with Hawk, but he's better without, and Hawk is better with someone who knows the game and won't be bullied by him, either backstage with teasing (like Wimpy) or with his presence (you come into his booth, and you KNOW that Hawk's Da Man). Steve Stone clearly has no problem being an equal partner. And Steve Stone likes John Schuerholz almost as much as I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure wouldn't mind a change in the booth (McDowell). DJ absolutely bores me to tears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes monotone, emotionless, but still Ive actually enjoyed this broadcast, Stone is very knowledgeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
