Jack Buck always worked better for me tuning in Cardinal games on KMOX than he did as a network announcer. In fact, as I think back to how much more I liked him and Hank Stram than ABC's Monday Night Football crew, it may just be that he was better on radio than on television. As far as Joe goes, he's not that bad, and there are occasional flashes of actual wit. He's just not good enough to be on every week from the beginning of April to the beginning of February. And we've heard everything McCarver has to say over the past couple decades. -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
