914World.com _ 914World Garage _ OT: Joe Buck and Tim McCormick

Posted by: scrz914 Jul 10 2007, 10:38 PM

I'm watching the All-Star game. I hope I'm not alone in thinking that these two are inane and embarrassing. Their attempts at humor and story telling are always a reach and usually have nothing to do with the game. Why do they always get to broadcast the MLB playoffs and world series? I think they would both be better at calling Olympic ice skating. They would fit right in with that syrupy anecdotel style. I even hate the sound of their voices.
Sorry, had a bad day. But really, they suck. Have to turn down the sound.

Joe Buck for sure sucks big time. We can't stand to listen to him.

Agreed.

Joe Buck and whoever else it was (like it matters) made me want to put music on instead.

I can't stand lame sportscasters. Up in Seattle we have a few very good one, but we also have our share of really bad ones. One that I think is finally gone is Ron Fairly. It was painful to listen to him.

Actually his name is Tim McCarver not McCormick.

I don't know. Joe Theismann and Paul Maguire were pretty bad on ESPN's Sunday Night Football. They spent half of the time arguing like an old married couple.
