If Jim Nantz is tweeting at me, 'Go back to baseball, you suck at golf,' then I've got problems. If it's somebody else who's just a voice out there, well, that just comes with the job.

You can let the size of the crowd, when you do Super Bowl, overwhelm you if you want, and that opening on camera is one of the most intense, awkward feelings you can ever have.

I mean, I've done college basketball, a horse race, a bunch of different things and they'd blow by but golf has a frenetic pace of bouncing around from shot to shot and green to green and, in essence, acre to acre over this huge plot of land with over 150 players who are their own team.

I'm close with Paul Rudd.

We do scales, vocal exercises every day. I run the voice up and down, get as high as I can and as low as I can. I work on breathing, too.

I kind of feel like curling combines this weird vision of people sliding down a lane, and it looks like it combines bowling and every bar game I've ever played. But I still don't understand what the hell it is.

My dad worked so hard. He slept in his own bed maybe half the nights of the year because of road assignments, but even when he was home, he was covering games. It put a lot of pressure on my mom. She brought in her parents to help out, and it took a village to raise us. I was lucky.

Timing in my life has been fortuitous.

My dad was not good at saying no. I'm trying to be better at saying no.

I got a chance to host the 'Late Late Show' for two nights before they hired Craig Ferguson. I enjoyed it, but nothing can replace the thrill of calling an NFC championship game or a Super Bowl or a World Series.

I love the St. Louis Blues, it's the only team I openly root for.

If you're going to scream and yell and pull a groin when calling a catch, you have to really make sure what you're seeing is actually what's happening.

I would rather be in San Francisco than just about anywhere on Earth.

People would ask, 'Why is your vocal cord paralyzed?' I said it was a virus. I didn't say it was an elective procedure to add hair to the front of my head. It was embarrassing. There's an embarrassing element to that.

I'd be willing to do anything once. I did live bass fishing on TV. I've done horse jumping... so clearly I'm not very picky.

You can't let criticism stop you from learning new things.

Most of the time, if someone gives me trouble at a bar or something, saying, 'Why do you hate the Red Sox or Patriots?' they end up buying you a drink or whatever. They like to be heard, say their piece, and then talk about the team.

Any surgery done to improve one's looks is not really something someone wants to talk about.

I try to make what I say count.

I'm a flawed, hard-working, hard-trying person.

I was broadcasting Cardinal baseball in the major leagues at the age of 21, and that only happened because my last name was Buck.

I was not broadcasting St. Louis Cardinals baseball because I was accomplished. I was broadcasting baseball at 21 years old because I was Jack Buck's son. I had a billion advantages.

I'm out there to be real, and I think people respond to that. If you have some image that you're protecting, eventually people get sick of it, and I can't imagine living that way for an entire lifetime. I'd rather just be who I am, and that's good enough.

Never bite off so much in your job that you can't spend a lot of time with your family.

In 1999, when Ted Williams came out and saluted the fans at the All Star Game at Fenway, I had a huge lump in my throat, and the producer is yelling in my ear to talk, and I couldn't, thankfully, and it was much better.

I live like a normal human being!

I'm my dad's kid, and I'm still, right or wrong, fighting that uphill battle, and I'm not saying that makes sense. I mean my dad didn't hire me at Fox... but it certainly gave me my start, and I think I'm always kind of fighting that.

I'm in awe of what it takes to run a nation, especially our great nation.

The point that I would make is it's easy for somebody like me to be critical of Colin Kaepernick, but I haven't suffered some of the same issues that Colin Kaepernick has. On some level, it's like, how dare I weigh in on what Kaepernick is doing or feeling?

To declare the Cubs champions after 108 years was the highlight of my career.

Procrastination is in my genetic code.

Jack Buck fought through Europe during World War II.

You always want to do games for fans that seem to really care. That is the Boston fan. They're passionate.

I love sharing my experience with others, especially students who are eager to learn the business.

Jeter was no choir boy, Jeter has lived a life. But it's always stayed separate from what happened when he showed up at Yankee Stadium. And that's really to his credit.

I started in radio.

I am an extremely lucky and blessed person, but I'm pretty self-aware.

I learned as my dad's kid that unless you physically can't get there, unless you physically can't do it, you need to show up for work.

I have to live with what I say, or don't say, tens of thousands of times a game.

If that had been my only purpose in life - to call home runs and touchdowns - I'd lead a pretty shallow life.

I come from a city like St. Louis, where they consider themselves great baseball fans.

I just consider Boston and New England incredible sports fans. If they give me trouble, think I'm rooting for other side, it's mainly because they're living and dying with every pitch and every play and think I'm rooting for the other side. I'd much rather that than apathy.

No matter how it started, I grew up with a great American love story. Two parents who didn't fight, enjoyed having parties and being together, and it was a great way to grow up.

I think people have a warped sense of who I am.

I think people bend the truth all the time, unfortunately.

If I had a walk-up song in 2019, it would be 'Baby Shark.' It's haunting. It's mesmerizing. It's catchy.

I watched how happy broadcasting made him. And if you're close with your parent and you see they're happy doing something, it's only natural you want to follow in their footsteps.

I was worried that if I lost my hair, I would lose my job.

To me, baseball is, in some ways, other than my family and wife, my life, and it always will be.

I do watch sports. How could I not? Just for self-preservation.
