Joe BuckI would handle the Artie Lange incident much better and more authentically today
If you saw Joe Buck 2018 in that same spot, I think I would have rolled with the punches maybe a little bit better on air. I think I would have been different. I think I would have been better with it, and I would have been more equipped... having gone through this vocal thing that I went through, kind of not really caring anymore what people think... I would have handled the moment probably better.

PFT CommenterThe Artie Lange incident is the reason we have the relationship with Joe Buck that we have today
If it wasn't for that Artie Lange show, I don't think that we would have the conversations that we have with Joe Buck.
Artie LangeBrett Favre and Chad Ochocinco were the real reasons 'Joe Buck Live' was a disaster because they were such bores
Now look, the real culprits to me are fucking Chad Ochocinco and Brett Favre. They were the first 45 minutes of an hour show... and they were bores. They're typical like Dennis Rodman type stuff where they think just because they have orange hair... they could sit there and they're young Albert Brooks on a talk show. They're just boring people.
Joe BuckIn hindsight, 'Joe Buck Live' was not a good match for the highbrow DNA of HBO Sports
I think now looking back – it was probably not a good match. I think they hold HBO Sports up... as kind of this cherished thing... journalistically sound... and I just never wanted to kind of do that. I also wanted to have fun. I'm the last guy to take myself seriously.

Joe BuckPatrick Mahomes is a genuinely good guy who does a lot of charity work when cameras aren't there
I'm amazed at Patrick Mahomes. He's a legitimate good guy that I think has a really big heart. When you talk to their PR folks, they're like, you should see what this guy does when nobody's looking. When cameras aren't there... he does stuff that nobody has any idea about. Just 'cause he is a good guy.
Joe BuckTom Brady should not over-prepare and should just be himself in the broadcasting booth
If I am telling Tom Brady anything... I would just say be yourself. I, I don't get into this trying to sound like what you've heard over the years... You know the game. Don't over prepare and see what you see and react with your gut on what you see. I, I think so many times people like that's, they, they overdo it to the point where they're just paralyzed by so much information.
