Is Joe Buck one of the top athletes of the 21st century?

**Deuce** · 10-14-12, 07:54 PM

One of the worst all times.

**Mikeyanks23** · 10-14-12, 07:58 PM

hes number 11 now

wouldve been top 5 if he sprinted to the giants game from the 49ers game instead of taking a trolley

**Herky** · 10-14-12, 08:00 PM

Good announcer. Father was great. Tim McCarver on the other hand is downright awful! (and he hopped on one of those trollies after the 9ers game).

**Br0nxer** · 10-14-12, 08:02 PM

less comedy

more commentating

one of the worst

thinks he is fukkin Eddie Murphy

**lakerboy** · 10-14-12, 08:02 PM

Can't understand all the buck and mccarver hate. Guys are the best since scully and garagiola.

**Vinnie Paz** · 10-14-12, 08:04 PM

Uncle Gus & Wiseman Mayock are the true announcing kings

**paranoyd androyd** · 10-14-12, 08:07 PM

did he take a helicopter from the stick to at&t like deion did for the falcons and braves?

I don't mind Joe Buck, but Tim McCarver has really gotten bad the last few years. Another guy who's really lost it is Dick Stockton. I can't believe they're still wheeling that corpse out.

I have him up there with the elite.

Quick recap:

The guy broadcasts this afternoon's New York Giants/San Francisco 49ers football game. As soon as it's over, he hops in a cab, and with less than a half-an-hour prep time he is calling Game One of the NLCS.

His vocal cords will be on the air over six hours, covering two different highly rated sports, and he is flourishing with the utmost professionalism.

Step aside Bo Jackson and Deion Sanders, Joe Buck is the new star in town.

Sharp post, Giant.

I actually think Gerardi should consider benching Arod again and starting Buck on Tuesday.

Wasn't that the time when Deion dumped the bucket of ice on top of McCarver?

It's like we've come full circle.

Alex Rodriguez appears to be living proof that steroids do in fact work.

Buck one of the worst on TV which also includes Cris Collinsworth and Matt Millen

**CanuckG** · 10-14-12, 08:22 PM

He's awful too

**stealthyburrito** · 10-14-12, 08:25 PM

Ive never understood the Joe Buck hate. Guy is a pro. McCarver is just old.

**CanuckG** · 10-14-12, 08:25 PM

Mike Emrick and Chris Cuthbert are solid for hockey

**Vinnie Paz** · 10-14-12, 08:28 PM

Joe buck for football is worst of the worst
Sorry guys there's no denying it

Say Giant... Seaweed once told me in poker chat that for really tough sporting events, he likes this guy's commentary:

Attached Files

**crustyme** · 10-14-12, 08:31 PM

guy lost me as a fan when he started believing he was bigger than the athletes and even the game.

his outburst at randy moss for his fake mooning was embarrassing and over the top.

i was so happy when artie lange destroyed him, his ego and his dumb show.

Joe Buck is the worst thing about the MLB playoffs year after year.

The TBS guys sound like Vin Scully compared to Joe Buck.

**paranoyd androyd** · 10-14-12, 10:41 PM

flies into sf to see both of his teams ruin sf. helluva day

I love the World Series but I hate that Fox gets the coverage.

Joe Buck is awful. I have to watch the games on mute when Fox has the coverage.
