If Joe Buck was a.....................Volleyball announcer

by SSreporters

We know that many bloggers like me, and especially this blogger, hate the ever so unexcitable Fox announcer. So let's have a little fun and see what happens when he announces for another sport besides baseball and football. This week, we take a look at what would happen if he were an Olympic Volleyball announcer.

Disclaimer: This is obviously fake, this is just to poke fun at Mr. Buck himself, so don't write to me.

Extra Disclaimer: The following matchup doesn't involve any real volleyball players. If they do, that's one big coincidence. Don't write to me for that either.

The Matchup: Team USA vs. Team Canada, Men's tournament, Bronze Medal match. Indoors.

Intro: Hello I'm Joe Buck, Misty May-Treanor-McLish-Robinson will be with me in a moment, but this is the part where I talk. I'm angry at Fox for not letting me go to the Olympic Baseball game, but this is fine. Team USA has been dominant in the men's tourney, winning 6 in a row before losing in the semifinal to Finland, Team Canada has also been dominant, winning 5 of their 6 games, but lost in the semis to Brazil. It's a very exciting rivalry in any sport when it comes to US vs. Canada, it's kind of like the Red Sox and the Yankees, who by the way, are underway in Fenway. It's currently 1-0 Red Sox in the bottom of the 2nd. David Ortiz is...

Misty interrupts: Joe, the match is almost ready, I wouldn't mind getting some analysis in.

Joe: Sorry, if it's baseball, I get a little carried away.

Misty does her analysis while Joe prepares to bore the match to death.

1st set: Williams serves for Canada, this is to win the 1st set. He lobs it over, Harris sends it back, here comes the spike from Canada, and Rick Carter wins the 1st set for Canada.

Misty: *Snoring.*

2nd set: When you talk about how dominant the USA has been, as Harris gives the US another point, you've got to think whether or not this is the greatest volleyball team of all time, as Stan Smith has won the set for the USA.

3rd set: Carter lobs it over, Christian Hodge sends it back, Canada's Dan Kilmer sets up the spike, and it's BLOCKED BY HARRIS! POINT USA!!! THEY WIN THE SET! SLAMA LAMA DING-DONG!!

With Buck showing signs of excitement in his voice, the crowd grows silent in complete shock. Misty was taken to the hospital for stomach cramps due to hard laughter. She is now in stable condition, next to Mike Fratello, who dealt with the same situation in basketball.

4th Set, Match Point for US: Carter couldn't even get the ball over the net, the USA has won the bronze medal. The crowd has gone wild, the Americans have won the bronze. I don't believe what I just saw. Go crazy folks, go crazy. We'll see you tomorrow night for the Gold Medal game. For Misty, I'm Jack Joe.

Okay, we've got two more installments left in this series before switching to Gus Johnson. Send your suggestions to tjxanda@gmail.com
