Artie Lange has had a sad go of it since his notorious appearance on Joe Buck Live, but this news should cheer him up.
Brooks from SportsbyBrooks passes along some quotes from a radio appearance of Buck last weekend.
“I don’t think there will be another episode of Joe Buck Live,” Buck said. “There’s only another nine months on that contract anyway, so I don’t think it’s that big of a deal either way.”
HBO won’t comfirm the news officially according to John Ourand of SportsBusiness Journal, but it doesn’t look good for Buck.
Buck mentioned a similar type of show could exist at Fox, but the news has to be a major disappointment. He tried something new, and it imploded spectacularly.
At least he’ll have more time to view his second favorite website.
UPDATE: Buck made essentially the same joke we did over at Deadspin. That speaks poorly for his sense of humor. And ours.
