"You might think you know Joe Buck — the sportscaster has been calling World Series and NFL games for Fox for years. But if you haven’t read Lucky Bastard, you don’t. It’s the story of his relationship with his father, Jack Buck, the radio voice of the St. Louis Cardinals. In poignant and revealing chapters, Joe describes how his dad’s legacy has dogged him all his life. That’s reason enough to pick up the book, but it’s also laugh-out-loud funny and full of self-deprecating humor. (Did you hear the one about the hair plugs that nearly ended his career?)"
