I know we've covered this angle before, but it bears repeating: imagine being Steve Stone in that setting. He's one of the better color guys in the business...smart, articulate, knows the game well, has a history with the great Harry Carey...I mean, he's one of the best.
And to be paired with a guy who's almost universally considered to be the <i>worst</i>.
A guy who tries to do the kind of "shtick" that Harry used to pull off effortlessly, but with Hawk, it comes out buffoonish and laughably bad.
At least once per broadcast, Stone must be saying to himself, "I am in hell."

There's nothing better than to realize that the good things about youth don't end with youth itself. It's a matter of realizing that life can be renewed every day you get out of bed without baggage. It's tough to get there, but it's better than the dark thoughts. -Lance
