Pathetic product with the only highlights the past few years the play of Colson and Robert maybe his first year. The staff of so many great names (Mark, Hoyt, Bobby, Peters, Horlen, Wilhelm, Sale, Wood, Garland, Pierce, Lyons, Walsh, Faber, Thiggy, McDowell, Cease de resistance, need I go on?) turns to a staff where I can't name one starter (I forget the name of the flamethrower who has looked good at times). ... And finally if u do watch a game, u have to suffer with poor Schiff and Gordo (don't like his accent sadly; love Stoney) or Stoney. Ah for the days of the aforementioned pitchers and Harry. Our team certainly has been at its low ebb with Schiff at the mike. I know $$ rules all but how can Stoney keep signing to broadcast this wretched club. Stone is a true Sox fan, he sincerely loves the team, that's why he's loyal. He's in it for life, unconditionally. Maybe you should try it too. I don't mind us losing, as long as we have competent announcers, which Stone is, but shrif is not. Jerry's an idiot for hiring him. Just listen to Len instead, who definitely has his faults, but is still 100x better. shrif is such a fool. He pronounces panther correctly, yet Edgar's surname differently, when he already proved he can hack it if he tried. Why the inconsistency. Because he is dumb, that's why. If you pronounce panther right in Spanish, then do it for other Sox names FFS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My sense is that Stone is loyal to two things, JR and his paycheck especially the way he rips the Sox fans on social media who dare question the organization. He is still a top notch analyst but let's be honest and also acknowledge he's in it for the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
