RIP Bob Uecker

[King Poetic]

RIP

love those major league movies he did

 

[boskey]

I honestly knew him from Mr. Belvedere before I ever knew he was a baseball player. RIP

Yup. RIP.

 

[Voice of Reason]

R.I.P.

I honestly knew him from Mr. Belvedere before I ever knew he was a baseball player. RIP

Same here. It went Mr. Belvedere, Major League, then MLB.

 

[jackswstd]

I didn’t know he was still alive, my man always looked perpetually 60 years old. R.I.P. I mostly remember him from the Major League movies, he was funny as hell in those joints.

Bob had charisma up the a**! R.I.P!

Too bad the Milwaukee Brewers couldn’t win a World Series championship when he was still alive. RIP Mr.Bob Uecker.

It’s sad that he couldn’t be able to see his favorite team finally win a championship in his lifetime .

 

[Bleed The Freak]

RIP. Major League was a classic.

Yeah man he pulled off that sarcasm like very few could he had me in tears.

RIP

Ueck WAS the voice of Milwaukee, not just the Brewers. Before we got Ryan Braun, JJ Hardy, Corey Hart, Prince Fielder to lead the revival, Ueck was the voice of Summer when the Brewers would be complete ass and you'd be there just for the Beer and Brats after Molitor and Yount left.

Gonna be missed for sure, just because of that voice. In classic fashion as well he is immortalized with the Bob Uecker Seats at the ballpark, which is also the cheapest because is an obstructed-view area in the upper grandstand above home plate.

Thanks for the Memories

RIP to Ueck. He was a one of a kind character.

 

[BuddahMAC]

That's what made the L to the Mets hurt. Felt like all the Brewers knew that was it for Bob

 

[Remote]

RIP.

A true class act as a broadcaster.
Hilarious off the field.

In my city - a place that’s literally divided into sections - there are two people I’ve seen in my lifetime who are universally beloved. One’s Giannis and the other’s Ueck. Both consistently great during peaks and valleys, and genuinely good humans outside of their respective crafts.

We’ve had some great announcers across different sports, but he’s a true legend. Put in work til he was 90 and fought cancer the last few years. Nobody’s voice is gonna fill the booth the same way.

Get up, get up, get outta here! Gone to a better place.
