More quotes by Joe Buck
No fat batboy is invisible.
Joe Buck
You have to be true to the game you're covering, whether its being lite at times - I certainly try to be that way - but it is limiting because you're fitting it in around what's going on in the game.
Joe Buck
It's kind of my intention to be myself on the show. My main priority on FOX is to do play-by-play. Nobody's tuning in to listen to me. If I didn't show up to do the games, people would watch, and the ratings probably wouldn't be all that different. That's not why people are watching.
Joe Buck
I'm the luckiest guy in the world to be my parents' son.
Joe Buck
I think by its very nature, it's redundant, you know, being the play-by-play guy on television.
Joe Buck
I think when you do radio there's a certain amount of freedom that when you walk in and sit down and turn the mic on, it's you. It's all you.
Joe Buck
Even talking about serious issues - it's hard to fit in anything around calling a baseball game.
Joe Buck
Every time you see kid and hear kid, you think, man, I have to not sound like a kid.
Joe Buck
And Johnny Manziel is only in a snickers commercial.
Joe Buck
There's a little bit more of a freedom when you're doing radio play-by-play as opposed to television. I prefer the television side of it.
Joe Buck
Robert Kraft, a modern day Zoolander.
Joe Buck
I started in radio. I enjoy the mental gymnastics that go along with matching voice to picture and vice versa and trying to accent the action as opposed to provide all of the action through my words. And that's really what play-by-play is.
Joe Buck
You have to trust yourself.
Joe Buck
I think he [Tony LaRussa] legitimately believes what he says. I don't agree with him. But I think he's being as honest as he can be.
Joe Buck
You have to do well on third downs.
Joe Buck
I think most people associate me with my dad.
Joe Buck
Part of me was always trying to prove that I belonged and prove that I deserved the job and prove that I could handle it. And that takes the fun out of it.
Joe Buck
You know what you gotta do cowboy?
Joe Buck
I got hired by the Cards when I was 21, and I could handle the job, but for the most part, I got hired because I was somebody's kid. When you start that way, you have a lot to prove.
Joe Buck
When I'm doing TV, it's more of a choreographed dance, in a way. So I've got to follow the pictures, or the pictures have to follow me.
