Jack Buck was indeed an American hero not just because he wrote a poem named “For America”, he served in the Army from 1943 to 1946. This 9/11 poem will remain as America’s famous poems in sports history. God Bless Jack Buck and America. (1924-2002)

My wife and I had tickets for the game the Friday before this game and were halfway to St Louis before hearing the game was postponed. We decided to continue on, and Saturday we went to JBuck’s restaurant. We saw Jack there having dinner with a group of friends. We finished around the same time and we were fortunate to meet him and get his autograph.

@@sdsmt99 the commissioner initially postponed the first three games through Thursday. It wasn’t until the NFL decided to postpone the weekend games (decision announced on September 13) that Selig announced the games Friday thru Sunday would also be postponed.

@bigblocklawyer 5 лет назад

Listening to Jack growing up...being a Cards fan...we can only tell others how cool it is. Unfortunately, before the age of RU-vid we were sheeple, who thought terrorists actually attacked our way of life. 1000 foot buildings built to take multiple hits by airplanes fall at the same speed as a bowling ball dropped off their roofs. Another building falling at free fall speed and was never touched by outside forces. Jack did what he was always did this night and we loved him for it. Hard to see him struggle talking, when it was effortless for him for so many years. The patriotic responses to this event are America at it's best. The criminal acts that led us to do them is America at its worst.

@pastispresent1487 6 лет назад

War was unecessary when the guys who attacked were already dead. All that was necessary was to dismantle bases of operation at that time in existence, and to work with weak governments from which terror might stem, so to prevent more attacks in a life and cost efficient way, doing justice in a smart way. And so retaining our respect, honor, and freedom, things which ironically we have lost.

@TheLocalLt 4 месяца назад

The government from which terror stemmed from was in Afghanistan, so we went there and successfully dismantled the Taliban regime, which America was universally in support of. Whatever came after that is a different issue, but for the couple years following the attack, with war brought to our doorstep, America was united in its resolve.

@tobiasdubose8812 4 года назад

4:02 I love Jack Buck, but the ironies of "War is just not our nature. We won't start, but we will end the fight". The first irony is that America is almost 244 years old and already we've had 12 major wars: America Revolution, War of 1812, Mexican-American, Civil, Spanish-American, WW1, WW2, Korea, Vietnam, Persian Gulf, Afghanistan, and Iraq. The second irony is that, as of February 2020, more than 18 years after we first invaded them, we are still in Afghanistan and we'll still be there as long as there is Terrorism.

@davidparnell5704 4 года назад

The last 3 you mentioned even though lives were lost, i would not consider wars. In fact two of them were to protect our oil.
