One of the biggest voices in sports will get a chance to host "Jeopardy." Broadcaster Joe Buck will guest host the program, putting himself in contention for the permanent job, according to Andrew Marchand of the New York Post.

The program is cycling through guest hosts following the death of long-time host Alex Trebek. A number of celebrities, including Katie Couric, Ken Jennings and Dr. Oz, have taken a shot at the role. It's assumed the program will hire a new full-time host eventually.

Buck's episodes will air during the summer, according to the Post. It's unclear how long Buck will guest host the show. Most of the celebrity guest hosts have filled in for a week or two.

Buck kind of looks like Art Fleming. For those of you below a certain age, Fleming was Alex Trabek’s predecessor.

Joe Buck is insufferable. His hosting the show will kill it. I’d much prefer Aaron Rodgers.

Nobody is the running to host. He’s already been picked out. They are just doing for ratings.

I fly out to Hollywood starting tomorrow.

“ Aaron Rogers has a fun time job. Buck works part time.”

Aaron Rogers promotes kneeling for the flag otherwise known as disrespecting our country and constitution

He’s a gigantic pain in the ass

Yesterday the final question was who is a leading historic American in Utah who was from Utah

The entire world got that trick question wrong. We are sick of the leftist politicians hosting and we are done with the trick questions

Alex a
Obviously vetted questions

Playing himself in Brockmire, that is just how Joe Buck came across, as arrogant and entitled.
