Fox’ Traveling NFL Pregame, Buck As Host Might Last One Year

Writer Questions Whether Buck (l) And
Bradshaw Can Share The Same Stage
|
Fox’ Joe Buck serving as host of the “Fox NFL Sunday” pregame
show, and the network taking the show on the road “to wherever Buck is calling
a game, will only last one season,” according to sources cited by Bob Raissman
of the N.Y. DAILY NEWS. A source said, “It’s a one-and-done thing.
After all the added competition settles in this season, there will be no need
for Fox to continue engaging in what will be a logistical nightmare.” Raissman
added that there already is speculation on how Terry Bradshaw, “so used
to being the star [of the pregame show] will react to Buck’s wit and sarcasm.”
Bradshaw recently said, “Chemistry is one thing, but as I told Joe, I said,
‘Here’s your job: Read the (tele)prompter and get us to commercial
break. We’ll take care of the rest.’” Raissman: “There
is no way Buck is going to be relegated to the role of traffic cop. After a few
weeks, this will be Buck’s show” (N.Y.
DAILY NEWS, 8/27).
