Jerksticks Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 I fear the White Sox might die as well the day he stops. That being said, "just a loooooong strike". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milkman delivers Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 1, 2010 -> 06:55 PM) Has anybody ever thought of what Whitesox baseball would be without Hawk? I'm not looking forward to the day Hawk either retires/dies. I'm going to cry like a little b**** when there's no more Hawk. I'm certain that Hawk could be replaced by a guy working a soundboard and nobody would know the difference. In fact, I would like it if whoever replaces Hawk uses a sound clip for home run calls.

Thad Bosley Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 As so for my partner, Steve Stone, our Hall-of-Fame Producer Jim Angio, up here in the booth, the Mayor, "Mean Joe Grube", this is the Hawk. So long, Everybody! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greppson24ottondo Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Some old ones I haven't heard in awhile but loved... "That's a Lance Johnson jump right there" On an 0-2 count, "You gotta cinch it up and hunker down" or "bow your neck." And my all-time favorite: "You coulda hung out all the drawers in door county on that rope." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'll be the day I can watch White Sox baseball without it bearing near-unbearable. STRETCH! STRETCH! [rumble] DAGGUMMITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT! He was bearable to me until he lost the ability to judge any flyball and started compensating for it by yelling "stretch stretch!" and ending it with his trademark "DAGGUMMITTTTTTTTTTTTTT!" Which happens almost every inning. Edited July 2, 2010 by Gregory Pratt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigSqwert Posted July 2, 2010 Author Share Posted July 2, 2010 For real. After all of these years has he not learned to just look at the closest outfielder to judge whether the ball is catchable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His love of Catfish is my favorite, you could play drinking games and get bombed every game for the number of times he talks about Catfish.

The ball then proceeded to land in the bullpen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Hibbard Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Not really Hawkisms, but two of my favorite all time Hawk moments are awkward passages with DJ (I'm paraphrasing): Sometime in 2002 or so DJ: "I really think we have a shot to win at Oakland this year." Hawk: "....." DJ: "I think this team could win two of three." Hawk: "....." DJ: "....." Hawk: "....WHY?..." DJ: "I don't know don't you think this team could win this series?" Hawk: "...." DJ: "....." Hawk: "......No....." After a long rain delay in 2003 or 2004 at home DJ: "I think it would be kind of interesting to start games at 9pm." Hawk: "....." DJ: "You know, shake things up a bit" Hawk: "....." DJ: "....." (long 2 minute silence) Hawk "....NO....." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It definitely got awkward at times. It happens with DJ and Farmer now as well. DJ just says some weird s*** that leaves you saying in your head "WTF??" and then nothing comes out of your mouth and there's dead air.

The awkwardness is part of what makes him great too, it's very entertaining and that's a big part of the broadcast when you're doing something like baseball.
