No, he is annoying as fuck and I wish I never had to hear his voice again. Hawk's voice is what I believe would be the auditory version of having a rusted pipe shoved up your ass. |

"the umpires will just make something up anyway" "where was that pitch?" "they got the call" "How come that is a strike on us, and not for them?" "that is bs" Hawk is the fucking worst. The biggest fucking cry baby there is. By far, the most unprofessional announcer around. Who the hell in the game today actually says over the air that the umpires would just make up a call? What an asshole. |

Say what you want about Hawk, but that is an impressive list. And I didn't see "Bolingbrook bounce" anywhere on the list. |

How about "Hey Whimpy, turn around for a second so I can stick this blade in your back" or "I think Carlton Fisk would make a good right fielder" |

That could be one of the dumbest lists of all time. So Hawk was the first guy to say "WAYY BACK" or WATCH IT? BTW, great Movie! |

"Zone 'em in, Reel 'em in, and light him up" doesn't refer to drawing a walk. It means you're gonna get a good pitch to drive and hopefully you can knock it a long way. |

bigfan wrote: So Hawk was the first guy to say "WAYY BACK" Probably not, but he was the first guy to say, "You can put in the board, Yes!" afterwards. Not everybody can stammer and stutter about nothing. |
