The Buckaroo sounds like The Beatles: "Yeah, Yeah, Yeah."

Either my hearing and voice recognition is going way bad... or Buck is currently doing color commentary on NESN tonight. The Rays/Red Sox game on right now. Sure sounds like Buck. Doesn't he still work with the Orioles also?
EDIT: pays to look on the internet a bit before asking questions. Found this on the NESN blog. 7:33 p.m.: Obviously people are noticing that Jerry Remy is not calling the game tonight. Jerry is under the weather and is expected back soon. Buck Martinez, from TBS, is filling in tonight. Get well soon, Remdog!

ROFLMAO! Thanks for making me laugh barnesy. I really need more laughter in my life these days, and you do crack me up sometimes with that dry sense of humor. You're too funny.

Glad you found humor. Baseball This Morning is sad. The other day The Buckaroo stated that Ichiro finally got over .300. I'm pretty sure Ichiro has been there all year. He did miss two weeks with his ulcer but came back swinging. It's sad to me that they can't accurately meet minimum expectations when providing stats.

I love your imitation of Buck, but what has happened to BBTM is no laughing matter. It must be excruciating every time you tune in!

I still tune in everyday. It's not very good but I document the annoyances. I tried keeping track of the times that Buck said "yeah" or "sure is" to start his responses but it became too much like work. It is safe to say he runs in the high 80 percentile. I also inform "management" of misrepresented facts, daily.

Like many of the on air personalities, the Buckaroo does a promo about listening to Home Plate after the game to hear all the scores. He doesn't say "yeah, sure is." How can that be? At first, I didn't recognize him.

I think I heard The Buckaroo would not be working today, it might be worth a listen.

Was BBTM easier on your ears today barnesy, with Buck's day off?

The Buckaroo's day off turned out to be a day off for all listeners. The versatile Billy amply filled the chair with great insight. Yeah, he sure did.

The Buckaroo is expected back on Friday. Billy did a great job filling the void.
