Jim Hawthorne Lack of Appreciation Thread

Tonight's snippy reaction to BilJ's comment reminds me: Jim Hawthorne sucks.
1. Whiny nasal voice. I miss John Ferguson and I am too young to even really remember him.
2. Constant whining and bitching during games. Just call the game, Jim.
3. Error after error after error. Unintended comedy (regarding an opportunistic Auburn baseball team: "all you have to do is give them a little crack.") And of course, the Bluegrass Miracle starring Jack "I'm black now?" Hunt.
Time for the Tigers to get a new voice.

5. Never gives down and distance
6. Got scared that the LSU student section was literally going to trample him to death after the LSU-Arizona basketball game years ago and called the students on air "these idiots" before being forced to publically apologize later in the week.
Also, the posi-Les types would swear on a bible years ago on here that Devery was wearing long white sleeves during the bluegrass miracle and thats what made it an honest mistake. Then google images came along...

"And on first down it's a hand-off to Ridley, up the middle for no gain. Second and 4 coming up for the Tigers."

If you've never heard Hawthorne's version of "Achy Breaky Heart" you haven't lived.

It is time to put him out to pasture, walk away gracefully Jim...please!

You can never replace John Ferguson.

Can't stand to listen to him call a baseball game.
Routine fly ball to shortstop, you usually get a "That ball is belted" or "That one hit way back". Only to be caught 6 feet on the grass.

I'm only 18 so I grew up with Jim Hawthorne. To me, I couldn't imagine LSU radio broadcasts without him.

I remember John Ferguson.
You’d get the clock, the score, the line of scrimmage, down & distance, and a minimal description of the play, and then he’d STFU.
Opinions & additional commentary came from the “color man”.
Ferguson knew his stuff, and he was a class act.
Hawthorne’s a bitchy little drama queen with delusions of grandeur.

7. Placing himself smack dab in the middle of the Negatigers on Saturdays, and then strolling out to TJ Ribs on Wednesdays to sunshine-pump the shite out of Miles.

How long's has it been since John Ferguson called a game? I remember him, but was a teenager and that's been 30+ years ago.
