Assuming they give to a local guy, who would you want? I know, a lot of bad choices, but you have to pick one. I say Jeff Joniack. I bet he would want it too. He could still do the Bears. |

1. The Ghost of Jimmy Piersall. 2. Hawk (JR has a LaRussa-like regret about his departure). 3. Dan Bernstein - to prove his Sox cred to JORR and annoy GD. |

Just throw some money at Lin Kasper and be done with it. |

They need to stop worrying about a Chicago connection and get the best big league pre/post/fill-in guy or AAA lead announcer willing to take a low ball offer. If this was last year, they might have been able to get Wayne Randazzo, but that ship has sailed. |

I disagree. The White Sox are not just a local institution but a hyperlocal institution. They absolutely need Chicago connections in fan-facing roles, and South Side connections at that. I don't know who the next Ed Farmer is, though, but that's who they need. EDIT: Yes I do. It was Dave Wills and he died. |

All three of them together so we can hear "Kinney McRinnalds" |

Tommy Williams is seriously the best name thrown out so far.  Curious is right, but I don't think BOTH TV guys need to be deeply rooted in Chicago...just one of them. I doubt Stone has more than a year or two left....I wouldn't be surprised if he packed up and retired right now to avoid starting over with a new "BIG PAHTNAH" Holmes would be a horrible choice, but it wouldn't surprise me at all if Jerry went that way....or someone as engaging as Gordon Bacon. |

Black Jack McDowell and Bobby Jenks. The Stanford Guy and the hillbilly. It would please Bernstein and the jorts crowd. |
