That's a hell of a job by AI mashing together images of Tony Dungy and Obama.

Bernsie and Holmes were noticeably reserved and quiet. in their announcing this guy. They probably were mad the Sox got a person they couldn't make fun of as he has all the education and experience.

this guy reads like the perfect person for the Sox to be the puppet

Good. No McDoink.

This guy will be fine. They're all the same across all 30 MLB teams. Benetti was the same only it seems he was a diva that thought he was more special then what he was. And he thought he was a comedian.

Schriffen, who is biracial, becomes the second Black television play-by-play announcer in MLB, joining Seattle’s Dave Sims. Schriffen’s grandfather, Alphonso Deal, was president of the Philadelphia chapter of the NAACP. The man who started as a New York Mets fan and eventually gravitated to the Yankees is ready to watch Luis Robert Jr., a potential American League Most Valuable Player candidate, on a daily basis.


This hire makes more sense now. Did you know Jerry Reinsdorf grew up In The Shadows Of Ebbets Field and was there when Jackie Robinson played? Just ask him, he'll tell you.

Benetti sucks and this guy will likely be awful, too.

You don't think the voice of the White Sox should just be talking about how many episodes of Community he's seen?

Parkins talked yesterday about how hard it was going to be for this guy to follow a legend like Benetti

:lol: :roll:

Insanity. Benetti is not even close to legend status. Hawk is a legend. Harry Caray is a legend.

Benetti is a nerd that likes to eat alot while broadcasting.

Odd that he didn't mention the guy being considered, McDoink.

As long as he just calls the game, he'll be fine. I would like to see if Benetti brings the full Benetti experience from game one of his Tigers tenure, or treats Tigers viewers like a new girlfriend and brings out the crazy in month four.

I'm expecting his niche sox audience to proudly state how they are watching tigers feeds this summer to get their fix

whoever this new guy is gets to ease in to the job as no one will be watching this year
