If by "affable Midwestern charm" you mean "blowing all Cardinals who will have him," then yes, he is known for that.

He had to go with that group. Tim McCarver can't spell his own name.

SHIMMY GRAY MILLER

May I have the origin, please?

MCR is sold out already?

I knew I didn't get out of bed today for a reason, now I know why.

(tries to think of witty comment about dullard progeny of legendary announcer, can't, makes dinner)

Eric Brewer is going to get fucked when he spells using the Queen's English.

ERIC BREWER, JULIE BUCK, KAREN FOSS, RALPH BUTLER, SHIMMY GRAY MILLER, COURTNEY COOPER.

That's a metric assload of who? right there.

Spend An Expensive Evening With Joe Buck And His Lame Friends

I'd rather spend an evening with Jack, if you follow me.

I can spell Joe Buck. Here it goes -

C-O-C-K-S-U-C-K-E-R

@Gourmet Spud: Necrophilia?

And for $76, that Spelling Bee better feature Shimmy Gray Miller and Courtney Cooper juggling flaming kittens or having a dildo fight.

If you need to borrow one, apparently BDD is done using his big black dildo as a stand-up comedy prop.

Courtney Cooper's wardrobe brought to you by the Ralston-Purina Company.

@Hank Scorpio-Steinbrenner:

Exactly.

ERIC BREWER, JULIE BUCK, KAREN FOSS, RALPH BUTLER, SHIMMY GRAY MILLER, COURTNEY COOPER

Who are six people who have never been in my kitchen?

uhh swingandamiss

Eric Brewer!
Ralph Butler!
It's an expensive evening with Joe Buck --
ONLY on FOX!

Shimmy Gray Miller looks like a mid-major version of Pokey Chatman.

No Tim McCarver. Not worth it.
Get me a dinner with Tim McCarver, Chris Wheeler, and Sarge Matthews, I'll cough up the money

"Back 2 School Spelling Bee" is ironic, no?

Teacher: The word is "forensics".
Joe Buck: Ah, fuck that. Why should we fucking have to spell forensics?
[cheers from kids in audience]
Joe Buck: S-U-C-K-M-Y-A-S-S. Forensics.

@How do you spell retard?: He declined due to the fact he is deathly afraid of bees.

The Dundies had more star power on stage.

Wilco tickets are still available for a show in St. Louis? Guess nobody really does like 'em where they're from.

Also, Joe Buck is a giant douche.

Why didn't my parents name me something cool like Shimmy? I'm stuck with boring old Dan. Nothing excited about Dan.

From now on I'd like to be referred to as Shimmy Dan Levy...Shim-D for short please.

@44 in a Row: The spelling issue, or the fact that they're holding a "Back to School" event in May?

disapprove.

No star power?

You forget George Brewer is the inventor of toasted ravioli.

I'd rather listen to Chris Matthews talk about bowel movements with Terrell Owens than sit through that bullshit. No way in fuck I'd pay for that

@preciousroy: Last I checked all three Wilco shows were sold out, but maybe they added more.

On a side note, I'm going to that New Pornographers show on Saturday. That looks to be sweet.

@How do you spell retard?:

"I am a color announcer. C-O-L-O-R, or you can spell it C-O-L-O-U-R, as well!"

Thank you for that headline.

Julie Buck:
A.) Restaurateur
B.) Oldies DJ
C.) "Oh, one of *those* Bucks!"
D.) Who-the-hell-is-she?
E.) All of the above

@The Stork: Gotta be B. No way it can be anything else.
