I love Baseball on Fox but I hate Joe Buck with a passion.  I hate him whether he is announcing baseball or football.  He is a moron, and whats worse is he thinks his shit dont stink.  His pops was a announcing legend but I cant stand Joe Buck, some1 kill him already.

Well ok looks like we agree then.  I loved Jack Buck, I think Jon Miller is outstanding, Lon Simmons was amazing but Vin Scully is in a league of his own so I would have to agree w/ you.

I'm sorry, but the dedication Chick brought to the Laker organization is unparallaled. Vin Scully didn't broadcast NEARLY as many consecutive games as Chick and wasn't close to as exclusive to his team. Chick was a brilliant man, he defined announcing, and came up with some of the more popular wordings in the game today, such as "airball" and "slam dunk"...Dude was basically like a father figure to everyone who was close to the Lakers or even the game of basketball...No disrespect to Vin Scully, but I don't anyone put forth as much dedication to what they did as the great Chick Hearn...PeACe

If it's about announcing, then Scully is the winner.  Cal Ripken is called the iron man of baseball but he's not the greatest player of all time.  Roberte Clemente did alot of work for his home country, but he's not the greatest player of all time.

Doesn't matter, Chick knew the ins and outs of the game of basketball and was a very intelligent and colorful man. He played, was a GM, announced. Nobody has ever come close to Chick Hearns when it comes to announcing AND dedication...Of course the baseball fans are gunna say Vin Scully was the greatest or whatever, but ask anyone who actually knows their sports and doesn't identify mainly with baseball, Chick>Scully.

Best Baseball Annoucer- Vin Scully
Best Basketball Announcer- Chick Hearn

In what sport would it be harder to be good at being an announcer?  Yes, that's right Baseball because it takes much more to describe the action and in baseball if you have the baseball encyclopedia in your head you'll be that much better.  Vin Scully is Baseball, so please don't call me a fucking boy you dumb ass piece of shit.

Basketball is non-stop action, in my opinion, it's much tougher to keep up with the play in basketball when it comes to announcing than in baseball. There's a lot more skill involved, you have to think/speak faster, be more on your toes, etc. And regardless, just because someone would consider baseball tougher to announce in wouldn't make Vin Scully the better announcer ANYWAYS. That's as dumb as saying Babe Ruth was a better athlete than Jordan because baseball is tougher to play...Your arguments are straight stupid...LMAO@"don't call me a boy".

Being an intelligent and colorful man has EVERYTHING to do with announcing...The way Chick spoke to the viewers, it's almost like he was sitting right with you in your living room...Nobody will EVER parallel Chick's greatness on the mic, not Scully, not no one...THEN when you factor in how much more he's sacraficed for the Laker organization on top of that, there's no competition...PeACe

Like I said before you idiot, Scully isn't intelligent and colorful?  Here let me break it down for your stupid ass

Best Baseball Annoucer- Vin Scully
Best Basketball Announcer- Chick Hearn

In what sport would it be harder to be good at being an announcer?  Yes, that's right Baseball because it takes much more to describe the action and in baseball if you have the baseball encyclopedia in your head you'll be that much better.  Vin Scully is Baseball, so please don't call me a fucking boy you dumb ass piece of shit. 


LMAO@"what sport would be harder announcing"...LOLLL! Listen, just because you're Mexican and you love baseball doesn't mean it's the hardest sport to announce in, BOY. Basketball is non-stop action, in my opinion, it's much tougher to keep up with the play in basketball when it comes to announcing than in baseball. There's a lot more skill involved, you have to think/speak faster, be more on your toes, etc. And regardless, just because someone would consider baseball tougher to announce in wouldn't make Vin Scully the better announcer ANYWAYS. That's as dumb as saying Babe Ruth was a better athlete than Jordan because baseball is tougher to play...Your arguments are straight stupid...LMAO@"don't call me a boy". I thought you only acted like a female, didn't actually think you were one...And I wasn't calling you a boy anyways, LOL, I was saying "boy", as in "boy, it's hot today"...LOL@these baseball fans, ask any person ever who knows announcing and doesn't have a baseball bias who the greatest announcer ever was... :-*

Yeah just ask the American Sporstcasters Hall of Fame?  Who got inducted first? Who has received the Emmy Life Time achievement award in Sporstcasting? 


Of course he's gunna get inducted first, he also started first...Chick has recieved tons and tons of awards throughout his career as well, many of which Scully hasn't...Does that make him better? No...But is he the best announcer ever in my (and MANY others) opinion? YES...If you were a Laker fan (no, not a bandwaggon Laker fan who liked them only when they were champions), you'd already know this... :D

Are you kidding me?

Vin Scully has been with the dodgers since they were the brooklyn dodgers.....HOOOOOOOOOOOW long ago was that? i call that dedication
Vin Scully has been with the dodgers for over 6 decades...........SIX decades!
Vin Scully holds the distinction of the longest consecutive service of any broadcaster for one team.
 


john wooden, former UCLA coach, 50 year LA resident, and friend of both Vin Scully and Chick Hern said in the LA times "Vin is absolutely, unquestionably the greatest sports announcer of all time"

so lets recap here

i google search chick hern and i get giligan's island, SNL , some fat and poop joke site, a movie review about "Body Slam", and someone giving props to ANOTHER anouncer,lol funny shit


i google search vin scully and i get nothing but how great dude was, how he was the greatest of all time, how he is the voice of baseball (which is like over 100 years old)

thanks NIK


and oh yeah my son don't ever question my loyalty to the lakers......you're showing us how much respect you have for Los Angeles, your just a laker fan , you're not an LA fan

Wooden, the greatest coach of this citiy's greatest college basketball program, and FRIEND of both Scully AND HERN , AND Laker fan said Scully was the best. Are you going to turn around and say he's not a 'true laker fan' like you now too ,lol get out of here with that

like the people said before me you need to get over the whole kobe shaq thing, if toronto fans can forgive Vince and pacer fans can forgive artest , i don't see what's wrong with forgiving and rooting for shaq....afterall it's not like he helped us win any championships....oh wait he did nevermind,lol

nik you are barred from ever having a thesable argument about sports outside of laker basketball on this board, you said it yourself , you're mostly just a basketball fan.

wow every page says something about vin scully's greatness


thanks NIK you actually HELPED my argument


so lets recap here

i google search chick hern and i get giligan's island, SNL , some fat and poop joke site, a movie review about "Body Slam", and someone giving props to ANOTHER anouncer,lol funny shit


i google search vin scully and i get nothing but how great dude was, how he was the greatest of all time, how he is the voice of baseball (which is like over 100 years old)

thanks NIK


and oh yeah my son don't ever question my loyalty to the lakers......you're showing us how much respect you have for Los Angeles, your just a laker fan , you're not an LA fan

Wooden, the greatest coach of this citiy's greatest college basketball program, and FRIEND of both Scully AND HERN , AND Laker fan said Scully was the best. Are you going to turn around and say he's not a 'true laker fan' like you now too ,lol get out of here with that

like the people said before me you need to get over the whole kobe shaq thing, if toronto fans can forgive Vince and pacer fans can forgive artest , i don't see what's wrong with forgiving and rooting for shaq....afterall it's not like he helped us win any championships....oh wait he did nevermind,lol

nik you are barred from ever having a thesable argument about sports outside of laker basketball on this board, you said it yourself , you're mostly just a basketball fan.



LOL...Jake, homie, you're trying too hard.

"Chick Hearn was the greatest announcer who ever lived. No one could describe a game, especially one that moves as quickly as basketball, as well as he could. Listening to Chick allowed you to visualize what was happening on the court as though you were there."

http://www.fletchwon.net/chick.html

"The voice of the Los Angeles Lakers for more than four decades, Hall-of-Famer Chick Hearn is considered to be far and away the best of the best when talking about basketball broadcasting. He was loud, opinionated, and completely himself, and although he loved the takers, (he announced a record 3,338 consecutive games by himself), he wasn't a homer. He was a master of the spoken word. He was playful, calling himself "Chickie Baby," and was responsible for much of the NBA vernacular that exists today. He came up with "slam dunk," "air ball," "finger roll," and 'no harm, no foul.'"

See, I can do the same...But at the end of the day, it really comes down to opinion...And not to diss you or anything, but my opinion is that you don't have the knowledge regarding the Laker organization and Shaq's history to tell Laker fans what to think about Shaq etc. I like the Dodgers too, just like you like the Lakers, but I'm a FAN of the Lakers (...just like you were when Shaq was on the team)... :-*

I lost interest in basketball, I followed the Lakers through those fucked up ass sweeps vs the Jazz and the Spurs.  It had nothing to do with being a bandwagon fan you fucking dumbass


LMAO@this liar...Admit you lost interest when Kobe and Shaq split, you little bitch...If Kobe and Shaq were still "together", this bandwaggon ass fan would still be reppin the Lakers... :-X


Nope, you're simply wrong faggot


Yea, sure...LMAO. You even told me on AIM how you were crying that the Laker organization broke up and you were "mad at Kobe" or some gay shit...Punk ass, stick to baseball, Laker fans don't need muthafuckaz ridin' in and out on the bandwaggon...PeACe
