For Buffett, who was primarily a fan of the Saints, Cubs and Heat, there were a lot of lean years of suffering, but any sports fan with even an ounce of honor and pride understands that it’s the tough times that define real fandom. Buffett later called Tracy Porter’s pick-six to seal the Super Bowl championship against the Colts the greatest sports moment of his lifetime.
What makes his role in “Cobb” funny is that Buffett was known to get after refs and officials in real life. He might have had an easygoing vibe behind a microphone on stage, but Buffett celebrated sports with a different edge. In 2001, he was kicked out of a Heat-Knicks game for cursing at NBA official Joe Forte. Buffett was at the game with his son.
