In case you missed it, White Sox broadcaster Ken "Hawk" Harrelson went absolutely insane after White Sox P Jose Quintana was ejected by Umpire Mark Wegner for throwing at Ben Zobrist the other night.

You want professional journalism, start hiring professional umpires

Hawk would be an awesome wrestling announcer

If only Selig would say "HE GONE!" many people would rejoice!

The umpire made the correct call, fwiw.
MLB Network explained why and covered the topic thoroughly yesterday.
AJ over slid second base the night before and spiked Zobrist in a blatant intentional manner. The Rays threw at AJ his first at bat the next day, as they should have. It should have ended there as baseball's unwritten laws state.
However, the White Sox threw at Zobrist his next at bat, completely uncalled for.
The ejection was warranted.

While the ejection may have been warranted, Hawk losing his mind, was not.

The ejection being warranted makes Hawk's tirade that much worse, makes him look like a complete arse since he was wrong about what he was bitching at in the first place.

I could understand Hawk thinking maybe a warning should have been issued, but his tirade was retarded. He should have known there was a pretty good possibility he'd be ejected.

Hawk is pretty much turrible anyway. Absolute homer and he's pretty annoying with his calls.
"He gone."
"That one is belted deep...you caaaaaaaaaan put it on the board...YES!"

He wasn't much as a player. He's even less as an announcer.

He has about 8 catch phrases and every one is annoying and most are unprofessional.

What the frick? Hawk is awesome. I love listening to him calling a game. It is refreshing to hear someone different who says whatever is on his mind.
"Stretch.. stretch... stretch. You can put it on the board...YES!"

What makes him unbearable is him saying "HE GONE!" after every single out. If he used it selectively for big outs it would b much better but to say it 27 times per game is flat out unnecessary and annoying as sh1t. Makes games unwatchable.
