Just say it emphatically without saying STAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND and I think it would work much better and be a lot less cringe.Everything with him is forced. He's trying to hard I think because he knows he's disliked and lacks credibility with a lot of the fan base.

Everyone in this business has an ego, me included and when you've heard and read the things said about him by others in broadcasting, I don't care how much the Sox are paying him, it hurts and makes an impact.

I just think he would be better off doing broadcasting maybe in a different role somewhere or a different sport. I just don’t think this is a good fit for him.
6 hours ago6 hr Great call tonight. Also on the Colson HR. Hard to hate the energy but misery can prevail here.

Hard to hate the energy but misery can prevail here.As someone that hated "Southside, staaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAND UP!" from its Spring Training debut, Schriff has grown on me, so I'm 50/50 on him staying or going.CHSN should back a Brinks truck up and just lock Adam Amin in as primary Sox / Bulls PBP announcer and give him the permission to still call NFL games.

4 hours ago4 hr There is a history of the White Sox on the Southside that dates back over 120 years. Back in 1906 (a year after Armor Park was built at 33rd and Shields ....(you know, where Ishbia wants to move a railyard)) the White Sox defeated the Cubs in game six of the World Series at Southside Park. Schriffen appreciates that history and the tradition that the White Sox have on the Southside, and, to his credit, he has played into it. He also challenged Plesac about his favorite ballparks noting that Wrigley does not even rate with the better ballparks, and it doesn't. Place is a joke.
