I definetely think that Buck's comment was an overreaction. The way the media has reacted to the stupid Moss thing, you'd think that he'd actually pulled his pants down and mooned people. Nevertheless, removing a broadcaster because he was too critical of a given player/team is a terrible precedent, and so kudos to Fox for not budging. (Am I actually praising a Rupert Murdoch enterprise....I feel so dirty)

On a side note, I agree that Buck can seem somewhat biased sometimes, but I think he gets a bum rap. He's not the greatest broadcaster I've ever heard, but he is knowledgable, well-prepared, and generally enjoyable to listen to. Believe me, as someone that is trying to become a broadcaster myself, you CANT please everyone all the time, and I generally think Buck learned well from his father. Anywho, thats just one man's opinion.
