Worst announcer ever?? Joe Buck


Recommended Posts

I have never heard someone derail a conversation more than Joe Buck. He asked the most off beat questions when the other guys are in a good interesting conversation. Now I am biased as I turn Joe Buck off of any sport he's announcing. He adds nothing, brings nothing, and only got there on his fathers coat tails.

My vote is for Zinger… he is too much, and it’s usually not very good… always about them Benjamin’s… at least that’s all I hear.

I know he wasn’t a fan favorite, but I really miss Johnny Miller making calls.  Even if his 62 was better than everyone else’s.

I loved Zinger's in GC Playing Lessons from the Pros... he should have stuck with playing tips.

Agree!!  My wife calls him "needle nose".  One day when Tiger was recovering from one of his many surgeries, he kept mentioning Tiger during the broadcast.  She said: "I bet they throw him a biscuit every time he mentions Tiger."  Throughout the broadcast she kept saying "Biscuit" when she heard Tiger's name.  It was very annoying, and I think she's right!!!

Oh how I miss the voice of Pat Summerall doing the Master's and the other majors when they were on CBS!  Smart enough to defer to the experts when needed and brought out the best in everyone he talked to on air.  Exactly the opposite of most announcers today, especially Joey B and Timmy M.

Amen on Azinger and Dottie Pepper loves saying 4 word phrases that are either captain obvious or irrelevant like “this putt is important”
