I feel I am in the minority here, but I have always enjoyed Buck.
Buck doesn't get it. It's not that people get mad that you tell them their team is not playing well and the rival team is playing better, it's the way he says it that rubs people the wrong way. He gives the feeling that he doesn't have respect for the sport and the players sometimes.
People who think Joe has an arrogant attitude have never met the man. I was fortunate to meet him about 15 years ago at Lambert airport in St. louis early in the morning. I noticed him sitting at a table drinking coffee reading something. I walked up to him just to say hello. Joe could have blown me off by just having a stranger walk up to him while he is just waiting on a flight. Joe couldn't have been more polite and genuine. He gave me far more of his time than I believe I deserved. We talked for about 15 mins at least and he could have been more gracious. So when people call him an arrogant ass they can get bent because they this man is anything but.
We're not jealous of your job Joe, you're just really bad at it.
Joe Buck is a smart, well-prepared, competent professional broadcaster. I think the reason why he is less popular than others in his broadcasting weight-class is that people generally favor personalities that they imagine they could easily share a beer with. Buck presents himself as a guy who, if you approached to say "hello," would signal security to have you intercepted. Also, beer is too low brow for him, he probably sips Cognac (even if he doesn't like the taste, but because it "looks" better). He's worked hard to craft himself in the image of a celebrity and intellectual -- not one of "us."
I don't have a problem with Joe Buck. I've heard him call a bunch of games and see nothing wrong with how he does it. I don't get the hate for him.
I don't understand the hate for him, but he's also completely milquetoast... He inspires no other feeling or thought than "oh hey, there's Joe Buck."
Freeze walk-off call “ We Will See You Tomorrow Night!!”
I don’t hate Joe Buck. I think most announcers suck but I don’t dislike Joe Buck. I actually dislike Michael Kay and a few others.
Miss Joe Buck alot. Dude can be cocky all he wants his career says he should be
Love Joe Buck but I’m biased since his dad was the best. Grew up listening to Jack and Mike Shannon. Miss him on FOX
Love Joe Buck! The voice of my childhood for October baseball. Never understood the hate.
Never understood the hate for Joe outside of the “everyone hates my team!!” point of view we all get as biased fans. He’s a good, humble dude. He’s also made the most of his career on his own. His dad isn’t the reason he’s doing super bowls and did so many World Series.
I'm a long time MLB fan from Europe and I also watch NFL games. Joe Buck as well as Bob Costas are the iconic voices of American sports and everytime he is on, I feel like part of that American culture is right here with me. A few months ago my wife told me how the voice of "that broadcaster" always makes her feel like something important is going on on tv. "That broadcaster" is Joe. Keep it up man, we love what you're doing.
This show is fantastic. Refreshing honest talk here.
I never had a problem with Joe. I liked his calls.
I always enjoyed Joe Buck, and as a Dodgers fan in St. Louis I thought he was better than most and can't wait to hear him and Chip tomorrow.
Joe Buck is an excellent and exciting broadcaster. I do miss his play by play during my Yankees World Series games. He definitely draws you into the game and and can be thrilling. I believe many dislike him because of his easy path to glory due to the privilege of his parents. Buck didn’t spend a lot of time as others calling games in the Minor League system scratching to get to the Big leagues. I think he’s a natural an many try to imitate him as many imitated Marv Albert.
The hair and head length that got him the job.
