[QUOTE="Roundball Sage, post: 2070822, member: 748116"] As all Sox fans are bracing for one of the worst seasons of baseball ever seen on Planet Earth... let’s put the spotlight on one positive that has emerged from this new Season. And his name is John Schriffen – the new Sox TV play-by-play broadcaster. John brings a light touch and informative, carefree style to the Sox broadcast booth that will help to make this 2024 White Sox Season From Hell more tolerable and entertaining. He seems to know baseball and is eager to learn more. And he appreciates the opportunity given to him to be a TV voice of what remains one of the great legacy franchises of the Major Leagues even with the pathetic ownership that still plagues a once-great franchise with some of the very best baseball fans ever born. And even John’s broadcast partner Steve Stone ... who’s been around Major League Baseball since Tommy John was still throwing baseballs for the Sox and Bee Bee Richard was trying to play shortstop... seems more refreshed apart from the sometimes heavy and all-too-chummy delivery of Jason Benetti who now has a perch in Detroit City to call Dah-Ty-Gahs. Thanks for taking this Sox job, John. We appreciate you and your raw courage on taking on this tough assignment of broadcasting a bad baseball team and making it sound interesting. You – like Sox fans everywhere – deserve much, much better than what we will see on the field. Maybe one day we'll even see that day. [/QUOTE]
