The worst announcer in all major sports has started the season off with his glorious and endless set of hawkisms right where he left them…which I believe was next to an old, half-dissolved U.S. Cellular field urinal cake with a earth-tone rainbow medley of pubes on it. Yesterday when Carlos Rodon gave up his only home run to the A’s offense, Hawk was so certain that it was not a HR that he casually remarks “can ‘o’ corn” as it sails over the fence. I can only assume Hawk was not sitting in his catbird seat for this one. Can he retire now? Check it out below.
I mean COME ON! The LF has his back turned already!

A. That is awesome. B, what did you do to get that video to embed?

For mlb.com vids, right click and copy video URL. Then paste and preview your post. It should show up in preview, but will just be link in edit mode.

Yeah, getting that video to be embedded is far more interesting than Exhibit #EleventyBillion that Hawk is a dipshit.

Where are you getting the video from? When I go to mlb.com I get a totally different url. Like so.

Bravo, did you actually use “Hawkisms” and “finest” in the same sentence?
Shame on you!

Hey Bravo…where did you get that video link from?
I would love to be able to embed video clips like this for the HR Derby thing I’m doing.

What I mean is, how does someone like myself go about finding links that look like that for other baseball plays?
The only link I can find for that clip is this one….

Where are you finding a link that looks so very much different?

I pulled it from mlb.com too but it allowed me to right click and copy video URL. I can’t do that now on my macbook so perhaps it’s a browser issue? I don’t know for sure sorry.
