Stacey was one of a kind because his passion was authentic and his ability to connect with so many was genuine. His knowledge of the game sometimes got overshadowed by his catch phrases. But man, he knew ball. He welcomed me to broadcast side and made me better RIP to an original
"He made people feel like they belonged where their feet were...there are only a few people that we're lucky enough to meet in our lives that have that and he was one of those people."
@adamamin on his partner Stacey King:
Because of Stacey, we as Bulls fans know “it’s a simple game.”
Because of Stacey, we always have hot sauce ready.
Because of Stacey, we like our meatballs spicy.
Because of Stacey - and the joy he brought - this goodbye hits so hard.
Drive home safely, Stacey. Beep Beep.
Our Chicago sports community has lost a great man and broadcaster. Stacey King passed away at 59 years old. He came to be synonymous with the Bulls. Great enthusiasm and a wonderful personality were his calling cards. He’ll be missed by many. He gave us all the hot sauce. RIP
“That ball hit high and deep by Murakami. Stretch. Get on back there. He looks up you can put it on the boarddddddd, yes!
“A moon shot by Murakami, and the White Sox lead it 5-4. Mercy!”
I spoke with @yakyucosmo about Munetaka Murakami’s hot start to the season.
He says there’s a concern in Japan that the White Sox will trade Murakami this season.
A message to Japanese baseball fans: No chance!!
Not happening!!
I’d be shocked!!

And a tremendous job by Bill Raftery and Grant Hill to LAY OUT (remain silent) and let Ian Eagle make the call. Not easy in such a stunning moment. This is why they are elite analysts.
