re: I just met Jim Hawthorne

I grew up generally liking Hawthorne. It wasn't until I was older that he really started to grate on my nerves. Especially when he's calling Tiger football. Anytime there's a short or negative yard play, he gets this tone that conveys impending doom. As if that one bad play is going to spell certain defeat. He's good on the big plays and the winning scores, but his overall negativity has just about turned me off the LSU Sports Radio Network for good.
