Bob Costas

[jamdawg96]

like him or not, had a pretty good show on HBO tonight about Major League Baseball. The live "Overtime" show is streaming now. Aaron and Mays are on. Pretty cool.

Click this, then the watch Overtime link... Costas Now

Edited to add:
But what a cheese dick photo of him on that page.

Is one of the best in the business, especially in baseball. I wish I could listen to him call baseball instead of some of the other clowns that do. Costas is the ultimate baseball fan, and knows the game inside and out. He never wears a earpiece when calling games, because he knows the stats off the top of his head.

I like Costas when broadcasting all sports. However, when it comes to baseball, I'm a big Joe Buck fan.

I loved it when Costas used to do the Masters but wished he still did some college bball.. Jim Nantz is a solid replacement though.

Joe Buck and Tim McCarver could just go away and I'd never miss them.

I really can't stand Joe Buck. I don't know why, but I've never liked him. I wish Fox had never made him their golden boy.

I hate it when he does the FSN Midwest broadcasts of Cardinals games. During the season he will do three or four series on there instead of Dan McLaughlin and I find Dan more enjoyable to listen to.

 

[PineGroveBully]

He declined the offer at the beginning of the season. Said he only wanted to be a fan of the Cardinals. He had done 12 I think last year. I think Dan and Al do a pretty good job. Dan can be a little bit of a "glass is always half full" type that kinda bugs me. I think Ricky Horton does a good job when they mix him in when Dan or Al get a night off. That said, I am a Joe Buck fan but I prefer him with Aikman in football as opposed to he and McCarver.

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

For every time that Dan gets a little giddy, Al brings him back to Earth. Gotta love the Mad Hungarian.

During the Bonds fiasco Costas was awesome- he's the one that told it like it was.

 

[dogfan96]

he takes himself too seriously.. he treats the slightest thing like it's an affront to all human decency and bordering on the end of civilization as we know it.
