Joe Buck says hair transplant addiction almost cost him his career

[Matt Breen]

This is probably best in the 'random news' area, but it's so crazy I had to give it his own topic. Joe Buck said in his new book that he was 'addicted' to hair-transplant surgery - and had eight of them. Complications from one of the surgeries, in 2011, caused him to have vocal problems.

In this episode of "Strange Addictions..."

the words "bizarre" and "weird" come to mind. Never underestimate the paranoia, egomania & general pretentiousness of TV personalities, however.

I can only wish that it had.

This thread caused me to have a dream that I was having lunch with Joe Buck. I wanted to bring up the hair plug thing and ask him if he was doing ok, but I didn't want to make him any more uncomfortable than his botched hair plugs did.

Sometimes it's best to keep these things to yourself.
