I was at that Woetown game in Detroit. Back-to-back homers in the bottom of the first, then no scoring at all for the rest of the game.

I went with Buck because the shot of him saluting the team shows the respect from his players. If had been just a basic Buck in the dugout shot, it would not have conveyed the same message.

I see him shading his eyes from the sun not saluting with his left arm.

Not sure of you are spoofing. But if not, if you see the video, all the players came out of the dugout while Buck was exchanging the lineup cards, and applauded him as he walked back. Buck then saluted the group.

There's a video of the newspaper back cover?

He's clearly not saluting in that picture. And voting for it
because of player respect vs him not being in the dugout
or something is silliness personified.

Spoofing is a cybercriminal activity where someone disguises themselves as a trusted source to gain access to personal information. Spoofing can take many forms, including:
Spoofed emails
A scammer can pretend to be a known person, like Joan Smith, and email employees from an email address that doesn't belong to them.
Caller ID spoofing
If you get calls from people saying your number is showing up on their caller ID, it's likely that your number has been spoofed.
Website spoofing
A criminal can disguise a website URL to convince a target that they are interacting with a known, trusted source.
IP spoofing
A computer can spoof an IP address, Address Resolution Protocol (ARP), or Domain Name System (DNS) server.
GPS spoofing
A cybercriminal can spoof GPS.
Spoofing can be used to:
Gain access to personal information
Acquire money
Spread malware
Steal data
Impersonating, masquerading, piggybacking, and mimicking are forms of spoofing.
According to the FCC, anyone who is illegally spoofing can face penalties of up to $10,000 for each violation.

i duuno why they felt like they had to make BUCK a million times larger than the other words. That's not tabloid style

Yeah, overall it's a weird cover. I'm surprised that it currently has a lead, albeit a narrow one.

I was thinking of the pre-digital use of the word. Perhaps teasing or joshing would have been more appropriate.
