Joe Buck Set To Call 7 Games In 7 Days

Busy is an understatement for the week of broadcasting Joe Buck is about to endure. Seven broadcasts in seven days for Buck on FOX, including three NFL games and four World Series contests. 

Not to minimize regional baseball broadcasters who can go a month without getting a day off during the regular season, but the seven major sporting events Buck will be calling next week as he criss-crosses the country further validates his elite play-by-play status. 

Just a few months ago, Buck and other broadcasters were craving live sports during the COVID-19 induced shutdown. To stay sharp, Buck even offered to provide play-by-play of anything, or almost anything, he drew the line at NSFW videos. Seven months later, he has three NFL matchups and four World Series games to attend in the span of one week.

Tampa to Buffalo to Arlington to Philly and back to Arlington is Buck’s travel schedule as he begins Sunday with America’s Game of the Week, calling the highly anticipated matchup between Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers. On Monday, Buck and Aikman are back at it 24 hours later, calling the Chiefs-Bills game at 5pm ET. 

Tuesday and Wednesday will see Buck call Games 1 and 2 of the World Series in Arlington. Thursday night is back to the NFL as the Giants play the Eagles in Philly. Friday and Saturday will see the World Series resume from Arlington for Games 3 and 4. 

It’s an impressive two-sport week for Buck, who was recently announced as the 2020 Pete Rozelle Award recipient, earning him a spot in Canton’s Pro Football Hall of Fame. Equally impressive was 2012, when Buck had a two-sport day, calling an NFL game between the New York Giants and San Francisco 49ers at 4:25pm, then moving across town for Game 1 of the NLCS between the St. Louis Cardinals and San Francisco Giants.

  1. I can’t believe all the hoopla about Joe Buck – his father was a great announcer, but he SUCKS!
    His voice isn’t that great, I’m voice trained and could blow him away (of course, I don’t get jobs based on my Daddy’s reputation). The worst part is that he doesn’t announce games, he goes on and on – diarrhea of the mouth! I HATE to watch anything he does, he hardly lets his coworkers get a word in edgewise- and he really sucks at football, half the time he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. And if you think I’m bullshitting, give me an audition and I’ll prove it!!! I’ll rejoice when his dumb ass retires and I
    don’t have to listen to him anymore!

  2. Well he lots of time off all the previous months.
