MidPennSkin Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Anybody notice that during the Bears-Seahawks game, Joe Buck asked Aikman whether 5/8 inch spikes were longer than 1/2 inch spikes? Don't they teach fractions in like the third grade? Is Joe that dumb, or was he asking that because he thinks his audience is that dumb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebornempowered Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 I will have to say the answer to the question in a definite yes. It is just sad that they have that dope paired with Aikman. As much as I couldn't stand Aikman with a star on the side of his head he is a fantastic announcer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said he could never tell which was bigger, three eighths, one half, or five eighths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GibbsFactor Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 He did it for the audience of course. :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrockster21 Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Dude...seriously? I wasn't paying that much attention, so I missed that quote. Its understandable however, as 6/5ths of all people don't understand fractions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FedExFielder Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Seriously, I hate Joe Buck. He fell into the job because his papa is in the baseball hall of fame when folks like me gotsta work from the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cdowwe Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 I hate Joe Buck as well. He doesnt mesh well with 3 other guys on Fox. I wish that they would keep the big black guy there always. Joe Buck is not funny, gets mad when someone talks to long, and thinks hes better than everyone else. Get rid of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roanoker Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 I thought it was funny. Aikman ended the dialog by saying "yes, 5/8s is longer." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsair_joe Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 didn't he also make a comment about how kickers want to have kickoffs go out of bounds at the 5 instead of going into the endzone for a touchback? Did anybody else catch that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWinzit Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 I lost respect for Joe Buck and gained respect for Aikman when they were doing the Dallas games. He became a Dallas homer and Aikman was the one that had to keep reeling him back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Harris Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 i pretty much hate all announcers.....if it were up to me, games would be broadcast with the home teams local announcers, i.e. sonny and sam, etc. that said, i guess i'm in the minority, because as far as announcers go, i don't mind buck that much.
