I'd be willing to do anything once. I did live bass fishing on TV. I've done horse jumping... so clearly I'm not very picky.

If you deal in hair loss, you constantly check the hairline of anyone who walks up to you. It's the first thing I look at.

I live in a puddle of guilt, an ocean of guilt that you want your own time.

I've heard, 'You're not your father.' Well, you're right. I'm not. We've had two different careers.

People know Troy Aikman as a Super Bowl-winning quarterback. That carries tremendous weight. Because he really guards against overexposure, or just saying stuff for effect. When he really says something that's critical, people notice.

I try to make what I say count.

I was broadcasting Cardinal baseball in the major leagues at the age of 21, and that only happened because my last name was Buck.

I'd rather work than not work.

I would rather be in San Francisco than just about anywhere on Earth.

Most of the time, if someone gives me trouble at a bar or something, saying, 'Why do you hate the Red Sox or Patriots?' they end up buying you a drink or whatever. They like to be heard, say their piece, and then talk about the team.

My dad worked so hard. He slept in his own bed maybe half the nights of the year because of road assignments, but even when he was home, he was covering games. It put a lot of pressure on my mom. She brought in her parents to help out, and it took a village to raise us. I was lucky.

I'm in awe of what it takes to run a nation, especially our great nation.

You always want to do games for fans that seem to really care. That is the Boston fan. They're passionate.

Broadcasting is a brutal, often unfair business, where looks are valued more than skill.

To me, baseball is, in some ways, other than my family and wife, my life, and it always will be.

I was worried that if I lost my hair, I would lose my job.

Any surgery done to improve one's looks is not really something someone wants to talk about.

If you're going to scream and yell and pull a groin when calling a catch, you have to really make sure what you're seeing is actually what's happening.

I learned as my dad's kid that unless you physically can't get there, unless you physically can't do it, you need to show up for work.

I watched how happy broadcasting made him. And if you're close with your parent and you see they're happy doing something, it's only natural you want to follow in their footsteps.
