Joe Buck?
Firstly: I don't watch enough baseball to really have an opinion one way or the other.
That being said, I know people on here can't stand Joe Buck. I've been reading the hate for a while and people complaining about him commentating the series. I woke up to local sports radio, and those guys were ALSO bashing Joe Buck. Then every caller that called in was bashing Joe Buck and saying how the technical difficulty time was so wonderful because Joe Buck wasn't on the air. So, my question: is this a pretty universal feeling outside of Cardinals land? Has Joe Buck jumped the shark? Will the network continue to give him major gigs if there's this much dislike of the guy's commentating? |

I know several Card fans who hate him & McCarver. They love his dad & Mike Shannon though.

It's not just Royals fans.
NO ONE likes Joe Buck. |

People are whiny b*tches. A lot of them hang out on this board. Mainly Joe just calls the game like any other announcer. People are lame. Joe Buck is just doing his job. That being said he is not my favorite. But hate? Stupid people can't keep things in perspective.

Don't really like him, but the irrational hatred and whining about bias is moronic. |

I've listened to him plenty. What I meant by he calls the game like any other announcer is: he calls the play by play, rattles off some stats, talks about the players playing in the game, tells a story, asks the other guys what they think, cracks a joke, takes us to commercial, etc. I'm also not a moron, I just have a different take.

After listening tonight I think it's more about the Royals having a star for him to obsess over more than anything. He just doesn't dwell on us enough because he doesn't have one person to focus on. The one guy we got is Davis and he's in for an inning or two max. I don't think he's as biased as people make him out to be, I just thing he's a terrible announcer with an even worse staff.
