That's Awkward: Joe Buck's Interaction With Michael Strahan Sparks Rumors
That's Awkward: Joe Buck's Interaction With Michael Strahan Sparks Rumors originally appeared on The Spun. In case you haven't been paying close attention, ESPN announcer Joe Buck has spent the past few days hosting "Good Morning America" on ABC. Buck, the voice of "Monday Night Football," is filling in for ABC broadcaster George Stephanopoulos. According to reports, the latter is on vacation. The rest of the "Good Morning America" crew, however, was at the studio for Friday's show. Before signing off from "Good Morning America" this Friday morning, Michael Strahan gave Buck a hug on national TV. Unfortunately for the Hall of Famer, it was a pretty awkward exchange. For some reason, Buck didn't exactly match Strahan's energy. He simply said, "Thank you." After watching Buck reluctantly embrace Strahan on "Good Morning America," sports fans are convinced they don't see eye-to-eye. At the very least, fans believe Buck is not that fond of the former NFL star. "ABC told Joe Buck, we don't think you do enough to earn your salary, so we're going to torture you by having to be on the same set a few days with someone as arrogant as you, Michael Strahan," one fan wrote on X. "Joe Buck and Michael Strahan look totally comfortable with this embrace," Awful Announcing wrote. We'll see if Buck comments on this less than ideal exchange with Strahan. In the meantime, Buck is gearing up for his fourth season as the play-by-play commentator for "Monday Night Football." "During the season, Aikman and Buck work alongside Lisa Salters, Monday Night Football's longest-tenured sideline reporter. In May 2023, at the 44th Annual Sports Emmy Awards, Monday Night Football won a Sports Emmy for 'Outstanding Live Sports Series' for the MNF's 2023 season – the trio's first year together," ESPN's bio for Buck states. Buck will call a Week 1 matchup between the Chicago Bears and Minnesota Vikings on Sept. 8. That's Awkward: Joe Buck's Interaction With Michael Strahan Sparks Rumors first appeared on The Spun on Jul 25, 2025 This story was originally reported by The Spun on Jul 25, 2025, where it first appeared.

Why is Joe Buck hosting GMA this week?
If you're waking up this week to Good Morning America, you might be expecting to see George Stephanopoulos hosting with Michael Strahan and Robin Roberts as usual, right? But not on July 23 through July 25. No, you're waking up and seeing the legendary Joe Buck -- the play-by-play voice for ESPN's Monday Night Football who also used to work for Fox's NFL and MLB coverage -- at the desk. What gives? It turns out that Stephanopoulos is on vacation, so the ABC show is getting some help from Buck to fill in. Per Front Office Sports, he'll guest host Wednesday through Friday, while another sports voice -- Malika Andrews -- will host on Saturday and Sunday. This makes a ton of sense given that they're ESPN employees -- with ABC, they're all under Disney. Where is George Stephanopoulos on vacation? No idea, but hope he's having a relaxing time! How is Joe Buck doing as host of GMA? So far so good! Good stuff!
