Flashback Fri: Young Joe Buck Interviewing Greg Vaughn
On Sunday, Joe Buck will be headed to Lambeau Field to call the Packers showdown with the Carolina Panthers. They flexed this game into the 3:25 slot, and he’ll be there with Troy Aikman. That might draw some groans from Packers fans, but I’m a big Buck guy. He does a great job and enjoy him calling games. Aikman has become more honest and any time, he is not calling the Dallas Cowboys’ game, he’s good too. Here’s a great Flashback Friday featuring 20-year-old Joe Buck talking to Greg Vaughn, former Milwaukee Brewers prospect. It’s hilarious.
FUN FACT: I appeared on another network before @foxsports. This is from the 1989 AAA All Star game. Had just turned 20 and never done television and I believe this was a live hit into Sportscenter. I grew a zit that night from the stress. #theworldwideleader #TBT pic.twitter.com/fLSYUVlfGm

First of all, the suit that Buck is wearing is fucking incredible. That suit is huge. He is swimming in it which makes sense considering he’s the ripe age of 20. Also, that hair is brutal. He looks like a member of the ‘Flock of Seagulls’ Second, did I not know how good Vaughn was as a prospect? I remember a bit as a Brewer then remember the Selig family aka the worst Milwaukee owners in sports, traded him for absolutely nothing to San Diego.
