TM : Lee leading Lilly perfectly to get Schumaker.

JB: I think Lee leading Lilly was a Dylan song

TM: (chuckles)

JB: Here's the pitch, a little high to the number 2 hitter Brenden Ryan and here's that play...

TM: Or was that Lay Lady Lay

JB: Ehh... it coulda been

TM: Coulda been.


Somebody please shoot these guys.

joe buck is about as exciting to listen to as watching paint dry. it's not the things he says, its just the lack of enthusiasm in which he calls games. i'll never forget him calling this past superbowl when the giants got a touchdown to take the lead. you would have thought ben stein had snuck in the booth and put a mic on. awful.

I actually like Joe Buck. I'd rather listen to static than Tim McCarver.

Joe Buck has stained my memory from when Puljos hit that bomb that is still orbiting planet Earth against my Astros back in the Divisional series.

I beleive it went something like:

"Lidge....from the stretch.....


(crack!)

and thats a line drive hit deep to Right field, back to the warning track annnnnnnnnndddddd GONE. Just like that Albert Puljos has just hit the mute button in TEXAS."


Much like Brad Lidge, Im not sure I'll ever recover from that.

Joe Buck is a regular-season baseball announcer who has no idea how to ramp it up for the postseason, the football playoffs, the Super Bowl, etc. Dispassionate is fine in a May game against the Asstros. It doesn't get there when you call arguably the greatest play in Super Bowl history with all of the enthusiasm that you'd call an RBI groundout in June.

McCarver is unlistenable. I would be surprised to hear that he's still continent, frankly.
