The linked article suggests he might miss the rest of the season. I'm probably unique in that I've never heard him call a LSU game.

Maybe too late for you to hear Hawthorne now but I listen to an LSU game on WWL one time when I was in Colorado. Faded in and out some but could hear most of it OK

I grew up listening to Ferguson & Hill. I arrived in CO in 1972. I was able to listen to most games on WWL or a station out of Shreveport.

My dad had a quadruple bypass in '13. He wasn't even close to feeling well for 4-6 weeks after it.

Wasn't Ferguson the one who said "outtathehuddletheymoove" every time they broke huddle? Whoever that was was the best. He could bring you to the edge of your seat, on the radio. Best of luck to Hawthorne, but I never liked him as an announcer. Hard to tell what was going on.

Not really the thread to criticize the man yo. Common decency.

I don't need you to comment on my manners or to tell me what or how I should post. Best of luck to him, but he was not a good announcer! If you don't like it then don't like it and kiss my ass!

you probably shouldnt have replied. you're welcome.


get will jim.

I hope your coworkers all talk about what a lousy employee you were at your funeral.

Thanks! I was never an employee actually, except maybe in the military. I think my friends will say I was a pretty good guy. Honest and straightforward and always spoke the truth, or at least my opinion of the truth.
