CALLER GENE: How do you like working with Hawk? STONE: I love my job, I love coming to the park everyday and broadcasting baseball.....(and 10 more minutes of garble, with the closest he came to the topic was calling Hawk a different kind of announcer.) |

A great non-answer answer. Does Hawk have the juice to nix a Stoney contract extension? |

Neither going anywhere....plus I think both know they are tight with Jerry and could never ask him to fire the other one. |

It was pretty good. It was basically his playing days and described how he was a pool shark, a gambler, and a golfer. Baseball was kind of in the background. I think it went up to the point where he retired for a bit, but before the time he came back. It was pretty entertaining though what sports fan wouldn't enjoy a book about poker games, golfing, fighting, and baseball. |

I don't think Hawk makes anything up. I just think he exaggerates how they happened immensely. Or it was kind of a one time or just an every so often type occurrence, but Hawk will act like it happened every other game with him. |

Im sorta joking Although the story he told about the 69 cubs a couple weeks ago was way off. If 90% of the details of a story are wrong, how true is it? |
