Bob Costas is a tool...

[Jmlsuperman]

Title says it all, I think Bob Costas IS A TOOL!! I don't know how many collectors are into sports, but I think Bob Costas is a smug, arrogant, toupe wearing tool. I hate hearing his commentary, and his Oylmpic coverage is HORRIBLE. But that's one mans opinion.

What say you?

 

[pixletwin]

I agree 100%. The guy has the brains of a rock and the wit of a gnat.

 

[Vader AL]

yeah he's a tool but I like Bobby. I really like Jim Lampley.

 

[Bodie The Cursed]

I always liked Bob.

 

[Mesa]

Why the hate? I don't mind his olympic commentary at all; I think he's doing a great job.

I completely understand about hating uptight, arrogant, smug pricks; I just don't think costas is one of them.

 

[Bannister]

I always liked Bob.

 

[EVILFACE]

He is also something like 3 feet tall.

 

[pjam]

Well, I have to say I like Bob too. I try to listen to what he says and he is a very insightful, well-versed on Air Talent. His HBO show is a classy show but that NBC Sunday Night Football Pre Game show is lame.

Having said that he does rub quite a few people the wrong way. I met him one day at a newsstand in NYC outside my Building and the Guy can't be more than 5'3" tall if that.

I contest that in fact the Olympics suck.......and Bob Costas, while not quite "ruling"...is A-Okay.

And if that doesn't work I'll fall back on the fact that he was funny in "Baseketball"....

I need to smoke a J and rewatch that film. It was so bad, it was good.

Yeah I can't help but like those two idiots.

 

[BadMoon]

I don't see anything wrong with him. Any examples as to why the hate?

I agree. I like when he does things like the Olympics because he does a great job. So I don't get the hate on this guy.

 

[Shai]

Who is this guy?

 

[galactiboy]

I'm fairly indifferent to him... although I was watching the gymnastics and his guest made a fairly strong allegation that the Chinese team was cheating (using underage girls w/forged documents) and you could see this look of dread in Costas' eyes. Probably thinking the Chinese government would have the both of them "disappeared"

I can't hate Bob Costas, simply for the fact that he wrote/narrated the best sports intro of all time:

I still can't believe that loss to BC. They came all the way back, then managed to lose on a FG. Pissed me the ^^^^ off.

Pissed YOU off?!? I bet you didn't have to buy a new television after that.

To this day I cannot even look at images from that game.
