Last night on the Home Box Office, Phillies fan favorite Joe Buck debuted with his brand new talk show/sketch comedy show/clusterfuck, The Joe Buck Show. For the most part, the show seemed to lack a certain je ne sais quoi, but lodged somewhere in between Buck’s unfunny monologue and an obnoxiously uncomfortable segment with Artie Lange, the FOX play-by-play man managed to get an interview out of the 3rd basemen for the hated Metros, David Wright. As the pair were nestled in the corner of a quaint New York restaurant deep in boring conversation, a Phillies fan happened stroll past the eatery.
But instead of leaving the two alone as the cameras rolled, he chose to tap on the glass, expose his Phillies jersey, and point to the finger normally reserved for World Series Champion rings. Observe:
That’s just tremendous.
And judging by his awkward laugh, I’d imagine this sorta thing is a common occurrence in David’s life.

I’m lovin’ it!
June 16th, 2009 at 8:38 am
Fantastic!!
June 16th, 2009 at 8:51 am
Choke on it!!!
June 16th, 2009 at 9:03 am
The video does not work for me – does anyone have a link to a non-flash version?
June 16th, 2009 at 9:15 am
It’s a YouTube vid, Jay. You can check out the link straight to the page HERE.
June 16th, 2009 at 9:16 am
dammit who keeps letting this guy on tv
June 16th, 2009 at 9:44 am
That interview should be called, “Eugene and Poindexter.”
June 16th, 2009 at 9:45 am
Come on David, you’re too cool to hang out with Joe Buck.
June 16th, 2009 at 9:51 am
Cool? Cool? Did you see that laugh? I guess even geeks can play a little third base.
June 16th, 2009 at 9:58 am
Laugh, David. It’s funny because it’s true. WFC.
Also, did anyone see Artie Lange destroying Buck on that show last night? And while Artie was doing it, Buck showed all the fire of his World Series-ending call. Zero fire. None. Just laid there while the train ran him over. It was beautiful.
June 16th, 2009 at 10:07 am
AWESOME. F-U David Wright AND Joe Buck. FROM THE ENTIRE CITY OF PHILADELPHIA!!!
Did anyone watch The Pen on Sunday? I’ve got it on the DVR but haven’t watched yet.
June 16th, 2009 at 10:16 am
That was the greatest thing I’ve ever seen. The only way that would of been better is if it was Matt Stairs doing the taunting.
June 16th, 2009 at 11:21 am
That Phils fan was me. I wish. If it were me I probably would have shit on the glass to completely ruin their lunch. I actually hate Joe Buck more than Wright.
June 16th, 2009 at 11:42 am
classic!
June 16th, 2009 at 11:58 am
Saw this last night, fucking gold. I don’t know who I hate more, David Wright or Joe Buck.
June 16th, 2009 at 12:09 pm
Wow, sounds like it was a thrilling interview. “So what do you do at restaurants?” hahahahaha
You’re a fucking idiot joe buck.
June 16th, 2009 at 12:18 pm
That guy should have just started hanging brain right against the glass. Joe and David probably would have enjoyed that too much though.
June 16th, 2009 at 12:20 pm
Joe Buck is such a smug prick. Artie Lange who is a fat fuck was actually funny though and showed Buck up fairly well throughout. good stuff.

HAHAHA!!! i just watched the video with artie and buck.
“You’re gonna pull me into a dark place in about 1 more minute.” haha look out joe buck is getting angry.
Artie, you’re the best. Thank you.
June 16th, 2009 at 12:22 pm
Sorry. the YouTube I posted was taken down…
Heres another while it lasts

Between the Phillies fan and Artie Lange, this was the funniest hour of television ever…no thanks to Joe Buck.
June 16th, 2009 at 12:28 pm
Chris Wheeler thought it was a rerun of MadTV…no lie…@THE_REAL_WHEELS
June 16th, 2009 at 12:53 pm
Seemed set up to me.
June 16th, 2009 at 12:57 pm
dude, pretty sure asking David Wright “how’s Jose’s hamstring feeling?” is a classic example of a dumb question. actually.
June 16th, 2009 at 2:05 pm
The promos for the show made Joe Buck look like less of a twit than usual, however he was his usual twitty self. The rest of the show, however, made up for it. I was actually entertained. My wife was sitting next to me saying, “Wait, don’t we hate that guy?”
June 16th, 2009 at 4:15 pm
David Wright is a homo. And you’re totally right Birdland, that was a dumbass question.
“Um, well Jose is on the DL and is going to be back after the All-Star break, so clearly it’s not feeling good you fucking idiot.”
I hate the Mets.
God. Damn.
June 16th, 2009 at 4:24 pm
Actually it is a pretty good question. I’m sure David Wright has the inside scoop.
“Well last night when I was giving Jose a massage, it felt a little tight, but it was nothing that these hands couldn’t work out.”
June 16th, 2009 at 4:37 pm
oh wait…i just took another watch, David Wright actually confirms it’s a “very intelligent question”. My bad. Jordan must be right. Wright’s got that inside track on the hammy.
June 16th, 2009 at 4:41 pm
I tried to watch the show but couldn’t get past the monologue. I just don’t get why America loves this guy. Must be the dimple in the chin. Oh, how I WISH I were that lucky Phillies fan. The cops would have had to pull me away from the window.
June 16th, 2009 at 5:01 pm
Joe Buck is a fine broadcaster. If only he showed some enthusiasum during the games.
June 16th, 2009 at 5:11 pm
The only thing worse than that douchenozzle Joe Buck, is when he teams up with fellow douchnozzle Tim McCarver. Worst… Call Team… in Sports. Well… then again, that ESPN crew, with Joe Morgan is pretty bad too. It’s a toughy.
But anyways… Mad Props to the Fan who pulled this one off.
June 16th, 2009 at 5:23 pm
THAT was classy.
June 16th, 2009 at 6:24 pm
Again… I ask, Over/Under on how many more seasons David Wright stays aboard that Sinking Ship, that is the METS?
I say two seasons, and then he gets out of dodge.
June 16th, 2009 at 6:35 pm
PhiPhan: Wright has an awesome contract that benefits the Mets. He ain’t goin anywhere.
2010: 10 mil
2011: 14 mil
2012: 15 mil
2016: 16 Mil (club option)

@Gonzo: Joe Buck is not a fine broadcaster. He’s a terrible broadcaster. Absolutely dismal. The only person worse than Joe Buck is Tim McCarver. Followed closely behind Buck is Joe Morgan. The three of them are by far the worst at covering games, and yet they get national mics. Unbelievable.
Which leads me to ask, why are national broadcasters so terrible? In the NHL, MLB, and NFL (I don’t watch NBA) the broadcasters on national tv are atrocious. (Less so for the NFL, but they still have/had some terrible ones) I’d rather listen to the Mets broadcasters than Buck and McCarver or Morgan and Miller.
June 16th, 2009 at 6:58 pm
here’s the video of artie ripping joe fuck apart….its hilarious

Shaggy: I have to agree with you. I tried to play the other side of the fence, but I can’t keep up the charade any longer.
Oh, Mike Emerick doing the NHL is terrific. You have to agree with that. (It’s easy to forget the NHL)
June 16th, 2009 at 7:16 pm
@Gonzo, and Shaggy. Let’s not forget how horrible the gamecasting of the Versus Network during NHL Playoffs is too.
June 16th, 2009 at 7:40 pm
and nobody forget about brent musburger’s coverage of the rose bowl. god i hate that dickhead.
June 16th, 2009 at 7:52 pm
Brent is a legand. That’s poppycock.
June 16th, 2009 at 10:55 pm
Musberger fellates Pete Carroll. That is all.
June 17th, 2009 at 2:42 am
Good lord. Followed the “obnoxious” link and came up with this gem about the Artie Lange segment…
“Michael Irvin, in the audience after being part of a segment with Bengals receiver Chad Johnson following the Favre interview, could only laugh at the spectacle.
‘It’s refreshing to see white-on-white crime,’ he said.”
What a jackass. The only person I detest more than Joe Buck is Michael Irvin. And possibly Sidney Crosby.
June 30th, 2009 at 10:06 pm
That’s my boy JL he’s was telling me the story about seeing the interview and I told him it that a fan made the cut. Didn’t really know it was him until the re-run. Go Phils…
June 30th, 2009 at 10:55 pm
@LANZ, nice dude. Give him props from all of us at theFightins.com.
July 15th, 2009 at 11:43 pm
Brilliant! How many of us dream of such a moment?
September 23rd, 2009 at 12:22 pm
that was retarded and obviously planned. you can see joe buck looking around for the guy before he even walked up.
September 23rd, 2009 at 12:25 pm
Oh yeah, Tom? Well YOU’RE retarded.
November 3rd, 2009 at 7:37 pm
does anyone still have the source clip for this? I’m from Philly and this is one of the funniest Phillies moments ever – I’d like to get a copy.
THanks!
