GoRowand33 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 I think I would be much more comfortable watching the world series on tv if hawk was broaddcasting these games, and that if they were, people who failed to get tickets like me wouldn't be as upset but then again the world series is pretty damn cool and I'll live either way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aboz56 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Rooney and Farmer are still calling games. I'll live, I've listened to them all season and rarely listened to Hawk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxPhan7 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 i would still be upset but it definitely would help the situation. I am a huge Hawk supporter and, even though this post season is the hilight of my life, I would love this so much more if Hawk was there with us. He is a joy to listen to and represents exactly what most sox fans are thinking. He makes everything more excting and conversely, when we lose he makes it so much harder to swallow. I sure hope he is planning a surprise visit to the radio booth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitetrain8601 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 I don't know. I guess I'm indifferent. Why isn't Hawk and DJ going to the playoff games anyway? I haven't heard of them going. To me, that just makes it seem like they really don't care about the team as some people would like to think. I'm not saying they're not watching us on tv, because they definately are, but it makes me wonder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steff Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 The only thing that would piss me off right now.. us not being in the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercy! Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Hawk is just reviled nationwide outside of his fan base as such a big homer. Conversely, his boosterism is a big part of his appeal to his supporters. So why doesn’t this homer have his heiny in the seats during this glorious run? I gotta say, it looks kinda small of him. At the least, it’s pretty peculiar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Who goes to work on their days off? It's a long season with a lot of travel and time away from home. I'll bet Hawk and Co. are happy to be home with the family and watching on TV. Taking a month away from their off season isn't something I would expect from him. Do you think he loves doing play by play so much he sits in his living room and does it for fun? Preparing for the games and doing the games is a lot of work. I am certain he enjoys it, but work just the same. And shouldn't a TV guy support his profession and want to see it on TV and not be at the game?

southsider2k5 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Am I weird that I am not mad about not getting tickets? I knew I probably wasn't going to get them anyways, so why get mad? The Sox are in the World Series, and that is all I really care about. Sure I want to be there, but so did tons of other people, who all happened to have more money or better connections than I did. It happens, its life. I still get to watch my team on TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think about what you're complaining about people. The White Sox are in the World Series, enjoy this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 I would much rather watch a WS game on TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2HH Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 I'm not kidding myself...I'd much rather be there. I've been waiting my entire life for this...and who knows when it will happen again for us. Hopefully every year...but until that happens, this may be our only shot at a World Series. I'm going. :D QUOTE(Texsox @ Oct 19, 2005 -> 06:39 AM) I would much rather watch a WS game on TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The air around the ALCS was incredibly electric, and I hate to miss it. But on the other hand, I knew I wasn't going to be able to get tickets. I am content with that.

Texsox Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 I love the pre-game, the post game, the interviews, the replays. The convienence of bathrooms, concessions, and I can choose which idiots I watch the game with. I've attended enough Championship games in other sports to get my fix. But every fan should get a chance at a Championship game. Watching the Penguins skate with the Cup at the old stadium was a thrill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Gleason Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Elmer Fudd could be calling the games and I wouldn't care. Just as long as the picture I see on TV has the Pale Hose on it, I'm fine. I didn't expect to get tix, so I hold no animosity at all about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
