I actually thought Buck handled himself OK in the exchange. Lang is a total asshole though.

It's kinda what he does...

Yeah I realize calling Lang an asshole is kind of like calling Raised on Riots an annoying, ball-washing, obnoxious moron, but it doesn't take away the fact that he is a total prick.

I admit, it's a combover.

Artie Lang took a fat dump all over Joe Buck.
It was painful watching that unfold.

Didn't realize Paul Rudd had grown up in the KC Metro.

I saw Artie on "Man Caves" a little while back. Figured he could have thrown himself into a gutter, drowned on the 1/2" of wet flotsam puddling up in it (because he was too lazy and fat to roll his fat ass out of it), drown to death and did the collective world culture a favor by doing so. What a waste of oxygen that pile of shit is on a daily basis.

I knew that one (he did celebrity fanatasy football on NFL Network or Fox or something a few years back, had a Priest Jersey, IIRC) but the other dude I did not know about being from KC area. He didn't seem to want to admit he was a chiefs fan, go figure....


The exchange between Artie and Buck did seem a bit tense, but I agree with Dane, it was probably a bit planned, maybe not scripted, but planned non-the-less.

Jimmy's better!!! Jim Norton is way better than artie.

Joe Buck takes himself way to seriously. He's a pompous ass riding the coattails of his father.

I'll never understand how people find shit like this amusing. The guy's an ill-mannered ****ing pig.

But like the accompanying story said, they should have known that going in.

What a horrible show. His father must be rolling over in his grave seeing how much of a pussy his son has become. He should straighten him up with a little pep talk in his sleep. I think the conversation would start something like "I DON'T BELIEVE WHAT I JUST SAW"

This was the "overtime" segment, so I',m not sure how much this is going to ruin his show if any, but we'll see.

I am from Saint Louis, and I sometimes have a hard time understanding everyones absolute hate for this guy? He is what he is. Which makes him the highest paid person here when it comes to reporting sports. I like Joe Buck, as a Redbirds fan, I really loved his father, and I had been listening to Joe every game here in STL until Fox swooped in and picked him up. He is the voice of fox sports, and more power too him.

Artie is Artie. He is nothing but blowhard, shit disturbing grunt that worships Howard Stern. His choice, Fair enough. But HBO had to know what they were getting into when they allowed him on the set. I have no problem with either of these guys. I just think it's funny the way I heard Joe Buck actually say "Jerk Off" which alot of people in STL wouldnt even believe If I told them. I'm sure Joe Buck will be just fine.


Why does everyone here hate him so much? Must be a Royals/Cards thing or something. Feel free to help me understand.

Artie Lang is ****ing hilarious.

The guy is tolerable in baseball broadcasting but I cannot stand listening to him and Aikman talk during a football game.
