"Two Jay Mariotti Wanna be's"
"they think they they invented the sports of baseball, basketball, football and hockey"

:lol:

Hawk is imploding before our very eyes.

I don't know what B&B said that they don't always say but Hawk started it all by saying "I got a call [or text I forget which he said] from a friend who said 'B&B were at it again'" and then he went into the rest of his rant which was really just the 4-5 lines I posted earlier. But no explanation what his beef was about, just a couple cheap shots.

They'll probably just laugh it off with "oh, Hawk, he's an American original, you can kiss our ass but there will never be another one like you, you crazy old dumbass cracker bastard."

I'm seriously loling at the idea of them ever going after, of all the people in the whole world, Reinsdorf. Are Dan and Hawk going to have to fight over who loves Daddy more?

Look, we love Hawk, uh eh, eh, he's as crazy as a loon, but we love him, I mean, uh, uh, uh, again, I didn't invent baseball, but eh, I was in the room when Abner Doubleday and Les did for the love of God!

I hope Boers and Bernstein rip this cartoon character Hawk to shreds.

Hawk is a fucking idiot.

He's been dumbing down Sox Fans for 30 years.

The absolute best is when the For Shit Sox are losing and Hawk acts like he is witnessing a death in the family. It is hysterical. He is such a buffoon.

Hawk makes Ed Farmer sound like he's Vin Scully!!!!!!

Hawk is become a bigger clown over the years. The guy is fighting his personal battles on the air, what a tired old sack of shit.

Agreed. Who likes this shithead anymore? He rambles on like a senile old man and sucks ass at his job. Can this old bitch.

So I guess Stone being on B&B kept Hawk from opening his mouth, but now that Stone isn't on anymore they're no longer off limits.

Hawk is just crying because Bernstein made him look like a an old fool all week after his sabermetrics rant.

Pretty good column from Dan, probably his DFWiest yet. It's not really about anything. You just kinda let it wash over you, I suppose.

I know Sox nation will never admit/agree that this guy costs them at the gate, because they have done surveys, but even talking with 2 Sox fans this morning, both of them told me they cant stand Hawk. These are season ticket holder, long time Sox fans and they have told me they cant stand watching their own games because of Hawk. So, why would an average fan even garner slight interest in a TV broadcast which promotes the team.

This has been an issue for years, not sure why Hawk can't just be a good guy on the air. Is it really that hard to be a good guy for him?

And Jerry had his sit down with Hawk and no more Umpire bashing! Sad that it took the owner to explain to a grown man all the reasons why Hawks ump bashing was a bad thing for the team.

I do. Im not a Sox fan though.

But there is still a HUGE Pro Hawk contingent. Every time he goes nuts the reaction is about 50/50 positive negative on social networking.

I think he's ridiculous when he goes nuts. And the tired old cliches are a bit much. He's like a doll where you pull the string and he says seven different things. But one thing I disagree with a lot of people about is when the Sox are getting pasted and he just shuts the fuck up. I like that a lot. What is there to say? I don't want a couple guys giggling and talking about Buffalo Tom's best album when my team is losing 10-2 in the sixth.

I dont mind the silence after a walk off or during the last couple at bats. i think he should at least call the balls and strikes though.
