Clearly bored out of his mind with nothing to do and no sports to call for some time, Joe Buck is calling mundane household events while self-quarantining.
In 2020, this is how it starts, but for now it's wholesome minus smacking your own mom:
In addition to doing a good job with that footage, Fox Sports' No. 1 play-by-play guy solicited fans to send him videos of their equally boring realities for the sake of keeping his broadcasting skills as on point as they can be at the moment.
That idea was endorsed by broadcasting teammate Erin Andrews.
Anyways, there's a couple of catches for those looking to send footage. One, you can't just be playing Madden, as explicitly stated here:
And two, you have to give money to a charity. It looks like we're using the honor system here, but one would hope you have a dollar.
Seems like a nice thing.
Sporting News brainstormed a number of every day events they would liked to see Buck call. So, in that same spirit (see: stealing), here's some more fun things you could do that I'd like to see Buck narrate:
- Read a book.
- Work out.
- Do laundry.
- Play with your dog.
- Go to the bathroom.
