kitekrazy Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 In praise of Hawk Harrelson http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseb...,1190963.column I like him even more when he said he couldn't promise Selig that he would stop criticizing the umpires.

maggsmaggs Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Hawk is one of the best announcers of his time. Is he a biased, winey, sometimes annoying homer? Hell yes, but that's why we love him. He will be a HOF for broadcasting, no doubt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ford Frick Award is presented by the Hall but their not inducted or technically considered HOFers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanOfCorn Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 According to the MLB Network, of the 25 best personalities in the history of baseball...Hawk is #14. And I have to say, the list is stacked with Sox...Ozzie and Bill Veeck were also on the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
