There are many valid criticisms of Fox's World Cup coverage. Stone, to me, is one of the good parts.
He knows the game and cares about it deeply, and fought for Americans to have a role in broadcasting soccer long before the sport was popular and profitable in this country.

Rob Stone has spent half his life broadcasting World Cups. This summer, he leads what could be Fox’s last.
I talked with him a few days before he set sail on the 13th of his career, men and women combined, since debuting in 1998:

This will be Stone’s 13th tournament, men's and women's combined, over 28 years. He's as familiar face as there is in soccer on TV, and embraces "the responsibility that’s on all of our shoulders."
