Re: Joe Buck
Sheesh, am I the only one who thought Madden was full of it? He'd build up a player/team until they they did something wrong and then trash them. I was so glad when I didn't have to listen to Madden's BS anymore. Many times as he called our games I wished for a mute button just for him.
I think one of the best out there is Collinsworth. I really like the way he calls games, and he's pretty dang smart on his commentary. He's got a little sarcastic side every so often that I like too, makes me laugh. (sometimes through the tears)

Re: Joe Buck
Joe Buck is a giant fan of teams that are...
1. Have a hot "marketable" QB
2. Green Bay and Dallas
3. Not the Vikings
He's insufferable when he calls Vikings and Packers games. You can tell what a QB fanboy and marketed teams (Packers, Patriots, Cowboys, Steelers)
fan he is. He slobs QB knob worse than John Madden ever did. He's probably turgid in the booth when he gets to call a Packers game. He's preposterous.
He the most biased, obvious fanboy calling NFL games today.
Also, his voice is fake and atrocious. Shame on people who say he has a "good voice." He has that radio jock FM puker voice, its a total fraud.

Uhhhhh what? I said the main reason I hate him is he is so monotonous and boring.majorm wrote: Haha. I KNEW the main reason people would give for not liking him is that he's "biased." EVERY fan thinks announcers are biased against their favorite team and fans of the teams they hate. Every one.
If there was ever an announcer that seemed to me to be biased in favor of a team, it was Madden with the Cowboys. But I despised the Cowboys and so I'm sure I was hearing what I wanted to hear.
I do agree he went overboard on Moss with the "mooning" incident. He apparently didn't know the story of how some Packer fans would moon the team bus as it arrived at the stadium.
But if you don't think he's biased, watch him call any game for that matter and see how quickly he turns to favoritism.

Re: Joe Buck
Jay Mohr was right how he never shows any emotion. He just raises his voice slightly.

Re: Joe Buck
I will happily put my hat in on the Buck hate-wagon. Can’t stand the guy. He has openly admitted he isn’t a huge fan of football and you can tell in how boring his broadcasts are. I do not know why Fox thinks that clown is so much better than the rest of their announcers. IMO, on Buck’s best day he is a push with the rest. FYI: There is a facebook group titled “Joe Buck Sucks”. I encourage you all to join for some weakly anti-Buck humor. (Not my group, I just find it funny)
I like Al Michaels and Collinsworth. They are the most professional IMO.

Re: Joe Buck
It's weird that I don't mind Buck doing baseball (his monotone, emotionless play-by-play is perfect for every game played before October), but can't stand his football commentating. These days I'm partial to Mayock and Jim Nantz. I also don't hate Simms.

Re: Joe Buck
I like Mayaock a lot as well. But he seems to just cover the preseason Vike games.dead_poet wrote:It's weird that I don't mind Buck doing baseball (his monotone, emotionless play-by-play is perfect for every game played before October), but can't stand his football commentating.

Re: Joe Buck
If I'm not mistaken he's on the NFL Network. He does the Thursday games. Not sure what else he does, though. I don't think he did Vikings preseason games this year (wasn't it PA?), but I could be wrong.PurpleKoolaid wrote: I like Mayaock a lot as well. But he seems to just cover the preseason Vike games.

Re: Joe Buck
I use the word that rhymes with Joe's last name. Aikman stepped right in the booth and became a great announcer. I think he's one of the best.
A successful coach needs a patient wife, loyal dog, and great quarterback - and not necessarily in that order.

Same here. I think Collinsworth and Aikman are the two best ex jock announcers calling games today. On the other hand, I never could understand why Phil Simms is still doing games. He's horrible.

Re: Joe Buck
That Tyree play is my go-to of why Buck is terrible. That play had the potential to be a signature call, but Joe was too busy checking his email or something to get excited about it.Hunter Morrow wrote:Jay Mohr was right how he never shows any emotion. He just raises his voice slightly.

Contrast that with his own call of Mark McGwire's 62nd home run, he went nuts. "He did it! He did it! He did it in St Lou!"
