Jeopardy to get Fox Sports Joe Buck as guest host.

After Aaron Rodgers scored a touchdown behind the Jeopardy! podium, the quiz show is going right back to the sports world for its latest guest host.

Longtime Fox sports announcer Joe Buck will serve as Jeopardy! host for a stretch of episodes airing this mid-summer, the New York Post reports. No word yet on the exact dates or length of Buck’s run, but most guest hosts have been appearing for two weeks’ worth of episodes.

Joining Fox back in 1994, Buck has been the network’s top NFL play-by-play announcer for two decades now, calling the week’s spotlight game each Sunday alongside Troy Aikman. He’s also served as Fox’s World Series announcer during that time, along with calling additional MLB games during the regular season and playoffs.

And some Jeopardy fans aren't liking it: Fox Sports’ Joe Buck to Guest Host ‘Jeopardy!’ – and Alex Trebek Fans Are Fighting Mad

I personally don't have anything against giving him a shot. I know some people don't like him as a sportscaster, but I really think that some Jeopardy snobs are starting to take their complaints on certain hosts too far. I wasn't too happy with Dr. Oz, but I don't have any problems with anyone else who has hosted so far.

Just be thankful they aren't inviting Gary Busey to host. On second thought... The outrage and subsequent side-show atmosphere would be turned into pretty strong ratings for the first couple shows.
 
According to Jeopardy's website Buzzy Cohen, a former Tournament of Champions winner, will host this year's tournament, which starts next week.
