Great stuff from Hawk and DJ

1. Hawk goes over the meaning of Heineybird, direct result of latest s*** piece by marriot. "A hineybird is a bird that flies around in perfectly executed concentric circles until finally it flies up its own behind, and *POOF*, disappears forever."

 

2. DJ- When Quinton McCracken comes to the plate, DJ goes here is the brother of Phil..haha

I thought it was great when Hawk was telling DJ about him going to lots of Highschool games in FL, and DJ responds with "you can't be going to game, people will be coming up to you yelling HAWK! HAWK!" ahh classic.

The funniest part of that was when DJ immediately afterward said "That's kind of like a Phoenix. Wait, no. No it's not." So off-base on that one.

DJ has really improved. He may be smarter than Hawk, but I don't think so baseball-wise. Besides, although DJ did work Phil McCracken into the telecast, he can never match Hawk working Catfish and Yaz in almost every night. We are due for a Frank Howard story tonight. I love the Hawk.

Kinda laughed at Hawk tonight on one of his stories..

 

"If the pitcher had 4 pitches, and was getting them over, I had no chance. If he had 3 pitches he could get over, I still didn't have much of a chance. About the only time I had a chance is if the guy was a 2 pitch pitcher, and couldn't get one over."

 

:bang

My wife is a cards fan, so we've seen alot of the reds this year. Everytime I see McCracken I laugh my ass off thinking of "Phil", and they also have a player named "Freddie Sanchez" which always makes me think of "Dirty Sanchez. :D

I think Mariotti vs Hawk is probably one of the funnier things that has gone on in CHicago media in a long time. Both of them repeat their ridiculous mantra about each other pretty much every time they mention one another. Its the same thing, every time. Mariotti calls Hawk a complete homer/Reinsdorfs mouthpiece, Hawk calls Mariotti a hineybird, every time. they cannot ignore each other, Hawk would have to fill 5-10 minutes of airtime with something else and Mariotti would have to come up with column filler every other day.

 

Mariotti used to really aggravate me with his columns, but not so much anymore. I see just as much as he does, and honestly I think this entire website(individually) has more baseball acumen/IQ/knowledge than Jay could ever have. His columns are more of a joke and knee-jerk reaction than anything else. Hawk is just a doddering old fart who is set in his ways and doesnt like hearing about his boss and himself and his team getting ripped so he tells the hineybird story(which was funny for a while, but now its getting old).

 

I take em both with a nice dose of salt.
