rangercal Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 MLB.com: People talk about Ron Santo being a fan on the Cubs radio broadcast, and obviously, he's there for a far different purpose then Hawk. But Hawk has that same sort of passion and feeling for the White Sox, even though he didn't play for the White Sox. Boyer: What Hawk brings to our broadcast is significantly more, with no disrespect to Ron Santo, because that's not his role. Ron and Hawk, people might call them both homers, but what Hawk brings to our broadcast is significantly more than Ron Santo brings to the Cubs broadcast. Hawk is calling the game, and Ron is reacting to the TV monitor. When you put Steve in with [Hawk], Steve will be doing the analysis and then you get the conversation going and it's a lot of experience in that broadcast booth -- on the field and in the booth. It's going to be able to paint the picture a little better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swingandalongonetoleft Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Ron reacting to the monitor is a spot on description of the man's work. In most any other booth it probably wouldn't work, but given the Cubs situation and having a Pat Hughs there to wipe the drool off your chin, I think he's perfect for the team and actually enjoy listening to him. I love Hawk but Ron's homerism is eleventy times more genuine, probably hand in hand with him being more senile, but like I said it works with the sad franchise that is the Cubs.
