I'm not an outdoorsman. I'd rather go see a movie. I don't want to hunt anything.

I enjoy the mental gymnastics that go along with matching voice to picture and vice versa and trying to accent the action as opposed to provide all of the action through my words. And that's really what play-by-play is.

We live in a world where a lot of people are dissatisfied and can't wait, in 140 characters or less, to tell you how dissatisfied they are.

My dad was the nicest, most egoless person that you could meet.

The best lesson I learned from my dad, Jack, is that nobody is tuning in to a game to hear you broadcast. They want to watch the game, so don't get in the way.

I'd rather work than not work.

I'm as much my mom as my dad.

Being a stepparent is knowing when to step in, when to step back, when to step up, when to step out.

I live in a puddle of guilt, an ocean of guilt that you want your own time.

I think guilt can be good to a small degree, keep you on the right path.

I do have feelings.

My dad used to get to the nastiest letters. But somebody had to take the time to type it, stamp it, send it to him, send it to the radio station. And I mean nasty stuff. It's not like nasty people with nasty opinions just popped up out of nowhere.

I don't think we know who a lot of these athletes are. We think we do, but they're never allowed to be themselves. Because the minute they try, people are saying, What's wrong with him? Why is he drawing attention to himself?

People know Troy Aikman as a Super Bowl-winning quarterback. That carries tremendous weight. Because he really guards against overexposure, or just saying stuff for effect. When he really says something that's critical, people notice.

My dad did call a lot of football, and in my opinion, he was the best football announcer on radio ever.

If you deal in hair loss, you constantly check the hairline of anyone who walks up to you. It's the first thing I look at.

I never thought I would get remarried, I love golf too much. I wanted the freedom to play whenever I'm not broadcasting. Then I met a woman I couldn't live without.

Whenever Elway was on the field, you never counted the Broncos out.

I'm a die-hard NHL fan. I can't get enough.

I don't know that I've ever looked at baseball like a purely casual fan. That's just realistic when you grow up with it putting food on your table, and with it taking your dad out of town.

When you've done it long enough - I've done something like 21 World Series - just about every fan base has turned off the TV when their team lost and I was screaming and yelling for the other side.

I'm clearly not an international man of mystery.

Great as my dad was - I would never have gotten my first job announcing if I didn't have the last name Buck - it's my mom, Carole, who has made the biggest difference. She was on Broadway back in the 1960s. She understands entertainment, has incredible instincts.

I live for baseball. That's how I grew up.
