Heartwarming July 4 clarification: Joe Buck loves baseball
I've been busy being on vacation and not watching baseball, but fortunately my friend/competitor Richard Sandomir at the Times followed up on the big Joe Buck unpleasantness of earlier this week since I was unavailable. That's why I recommend the Times as an occasionally useful second read after you have enjoyed your morning Newsday.
Here is that story.
Joe says he loves baseball and regularly takes his daughters to Cardinals games. Not on school nights, I hope!

Uh, okay......clarification and unsaid apology by Mr. Buck accepted.
Movin on.
So many things get taken out of context, yes?
Or are simply said off the cuff, in the heat of the moment without any thought, a common human foible.
Willie Randolph should have been given comparable soft respect by the media as Mr. Buck just received after his misplaced inflammatory comments to a certain Bergen reporter, no?
Oh, never mind, okay.....Randolph's were different.....
R-I-G-H-T.
