I think his name is Darryl Hawk..........very fresh. seems sports savy! A complete 180 from Baker and Rose the other 2 Afro-American sports guys. Doesn't get to ghetto when doing a sportscast! We will have to see but on 1st impressions could be a winner!

When they introduce the sports segment, they should use a recorded hawk sound, "CAW-CAW" and when it's over, "He gone!"

To be honest, I never watch Rose or Baker and think to myself:"Man, I can't watch this, these guys are just too ghetto". :roll:

Is there anything more useless than the sports segments on the local news? THey give you nothing of substance.

Rose is just too stupid to watch. He can't even read the scores correctly. Affirmative Action at it's worst. An unqualified person given a job based on his race. Over all the years, he hasn't gotten any better. Just a joke and an embarrassment to the station and the city.

Well, he has been there 20+ years, so someone must like him. I don't think he does a bad job, he just comes off as a little arrogant. I once saw him crossing State St., that Great Street, just north of the ABC7 building a couple years back as I was heading to Popeye's for some of their wonderful fried chicken. Mmmmmmmm... Popeye's Chicken...

The man's name is actually Daryl Hawks, just so you know. I haven't seen enough of his work to offer an opinion of the newest member of the NBC 5 sports team. I'm not sure he's the new #1 guy over there, only because they believe in a "team philosophy" when it comes to sports coverage. While other newsrooms have a true #1 sportscaster with Mark Giangreco at ABC 7, Dan Roan at WGN's CW 9, Corey McPherrin at FOX 32 and Ryan Baker at CBS 2, NBC 5 seems to believe in the "sportscaster by committee" system. You never know who will be on every weeknight...
