The ALCS begins tonight with your host, Greg Marmalard Joe Buck. As you know, Chip Caray is doing the play-by-play for the NLCS. No question, Buck is clearly the better technical play-by-play guy. How does he hold the advantage? Oh, by waiting until the play actually happens before he calls it. So I won’t ask who’s better, because the Fukudome is never that easy. Instead, let’s put these guys into the Fukudome with a different question.

| Joe Buck | Chip Caray |
It’s a shame we can’t just listen to Vin Scully. He is still the best, IMO.
If the question was “Who’s the bigger dolt?”, it’d be Chip all the way.
I haven’t watched either announcer yet,,, I’m glued to “SuckingCock.Com”, So is that a vote for Buck, or Carey?
Tim McCarver doesn’t get to run??
Oh, wait, I see. He’s in the running for the “Thank you, Mr. Obvious” award.
“Greg Marmalard” has me in stitches. I can’t stop giggling. I won’t be able to listen to him any more without thinking that.
The same thing happened when I heard that the NY Knicks fans called Steve Kerr “Beavis” – hahaha! BEAVIS!!
Chip Caray looks like he has a stick up his ass in that picture. WTF?
The Fox postgame studio gang had both Mark Grace and Eric Karros talking things over. That’s actually pretty clutch.
I think this is the hardest Fukudome ever to decide…I honestly just contemplated this for about a minutes before deciding on Joe Buck
beavis. that is funny.
what does smarmier mean?
It means more Steve Stoneish.
Chip “Don’t Call Me Jim” Caray gets my vote. He had me at: “Grounder Gonzalez…gloves, grabs, guns…GOT HIM! Great Game!”, which was an actual on-air call to describe a game-ending ground out to Alex Gonzalez in a 2003 game vs. the Phillies at Wrigley Field. The funniest part about it was that you just KNOW the Chipster stayed up late every night (nude, in front of a mirror, with a picture of his late
drunken idiot of agrandfather hanging on the wall behind him) rehearsing that particular call over and over again, waiting for the chance to use it. I heard the “Gloves, grabs, guns…GOT HIM!” call a few more times that year, but none was as nauseating as that first one.He also gets extra credit for calling every hard hit or thrown ball a “laser beam”, while making quote marks in the air with his fingers. Thanks for the play-by-play, Dr. Evil.
LYNN’S GREAT MOMENTS IN CUBS HISTORY – On August 6, 1983 at Wrigley Field, Ferguson Jenkins gives up 2 opposite field 2-run HRs to Mets pitcher Walt Terrell and loses the game 4-2. Terrell, a lifetime .120 hitter, would hit only one more HR in his career and would retire with more home runs hit against Fergie then, among others, Jim Rice, Joe Morgan, Keith Hernandez, and Gary Carter.
