I am shocked many Sox fans HATE the Hawk, best home run and strike out calls EVER!

That's what I've been telling people! Granted, Hawk has gotten a bit whiney about the umpires lately, but his home run call is the best I've ever heard. Nobody's even comes close. People don't realize that there's only a couple Vin Scullys or Steve Stones around baseball. All I ask of my announcer is to drop an interesting story about baseball once in awhile, and give me a nice jolt when the Sox crush a dinger.

One day in the not too distant future, we're all gonna really miss the old Hawkaroo.

Oh, man...Steve Stone. I miss that guy, I truly do. Never mention his name in a forum I’m involved in, please....EVER.

PS - GO CUBBIES!
