Celebrity Feuds
The Artie of War -- Lange Crushes Joe Buck

Artie Lange ripped Joe Buck a new one in an epic battle of cut downs last night -- as the "Howard Stern Show" veteran hit the sports announcer with insult after insult on what was supposed to be a night celebrating Joe's new show.



It all started during Artie's guest appearance on the "Joe Buck Live" show on HBO last night -- but the war of words only escalated during the "overtime" segment, which takes place after the actual show and is only shown on the web.

During the webcast, Joe did his best to fight back against Artie's relentless barrage of insults -- and even managed to sneak in a few jabs of his own -- but it was clear Joe was wayyy out of his league as Artie did nothing short of brutally roast the host.

You gotta see it.

18. I was expecting to see Artie crush Buck, but it was the other way around. 4 chins, hahaha!

19. Buck won. I agree with the person who said Artie is now out of control. He is a funny guy but he now talks over every guest on the Stern Show and is rude from the first moment they arrive, at least to all of the male guests. Howard is being too nice to Artie and needs to put him back in his place. I think it is the success of his book and the proposed reality show about him that is getting to his head and making him an ass more than his getting off heroin. A little self-confidence is one thing but keep it in check. You are still the guy who made "Beer League". I play softball and I still thought that movie sucked, even by straight to video standards.

20. I agree...Buck was actually funnier and more witty. That being said, I love the line of Artie: "show four- the one you won't get to".

21. Buck got the first jab in and the best lines. Artie is shot out of a cannon, he's a mental mess. The misogyny and the homo phobia seem to be all he can reach for out of his comedy bag. It's apparent that Howard is getting tired of his constant blabbering and philabustering.

22. That was rough, I can't believe some here think Joe Buck won that war, Artie wasn't very funny, but he totally took control of that show. Offensive? Yes, but it was still fun to watch I guess in the end Joe got what he needed, some controversy and a lot of press.

23. Artie is a fat, self-destructive, slob.

24. Is there more to it than this clip? Because Artie gets his ass handed to him and makes only the tamest comments in return. I can't remember the last time I saw a clip so completely misrepresented.

25. buck was way funnier than artie, anyone who thinks artie is still sober is crazy tmz got this wrong

26. I don't know or care much about either of these guys, but I think TMZ is crazy if they think Artie won this battle of wits. The sports dude got more riffs off and they were more intelligent. I understand you guys are fans of this Artie, but Joe won this hands down.

30. I am a HUGE Artie fan but Buck held his own. Not easy to do with a man like Artie.
