Training camp opened today, if this was baseball,
it would be time for a long winded essay
by George Will as read by Bob Costas about hope springing eternal and all those other cliches that are part of Americana. This is football, however, and instead of waxing poetically about new beginnings the Raider Nation is preparing their spikes and face paint to get hyped. So far, there is good news in ...
I am going to try today to watch
my tape of last night's "Costas Now" and watch
the British Open live and write a newspaper column simultaneously, so please forgive me for light blogging. So far I have seen Buzz Bissinger and Will Leitch sitting ...

I got wind of this ahead of time
but I figured that Leitch wanted it to be
a surprise. In case you missed Bob Costas' Town Hall Meeting on Baseball last night, he had Will and Buzz Bissinger in the crowd and introduced them before the event ...
Most of us who watched Wednesday night's episode
of Costas Now, which featured a very special Buzz
n' Will reunion, did so from the comfort of our couches. However, BLS contributor Nick Friedell stayed behind after the All-Star game and was able to ...
I find it whimsically amusing that over 30
years after he began his broadcasting career (roughly around
the time he used the word "blowjob" as a synonym for the word "choke" in an ABA game) he is somehow being redefined by a one-sided shouting match ...
Those foolish enough to miss the season premiere
of "Project Runway" — and those not "connected" enough
for ESPY tickets — might have stumbled across the newest episode of "Costas Now" last night. It was entirely about baseball. Hey, I ...
Last night, Bob Costas hosted a baseball-themed episode
of his Costas Now town hall meeting-style show live
on HBO. Among the topics discussed were the dearth of black baseballers, the hall of fame candidacy of alleged steroid users and Pete Rose, ...
Last night Bob Costas chimed in with a
"Hey, it's me, Joe six-pack" comment during HBO's Town
Hall meeting on baseball when he resoundingly encouraged the argument that if us zany sports fans are the one's footing the taxes for...
COSTAS NOW OVERTIME After the last Costas Now,
HBO presented an exclusive live Overtime segment on HBO.com,
featuring Henry Aaron and Willie Mays. It was such a great exchange that HBO decided to make it its own segment. Check back soon to see a ...
"Costas Now," the sports news and interview show,
which returns to HBO tomorrow at 9 p.m. EDT,
may attract viewers in record numbers -- but Bob Costas isn't sure he wants all of them. "I'd like everyone interested in sports to tune in," he says, "but if all they're looking for is a repeat of 'Bissinger vs. Leitch' I'd just as soon they watched something else."
In conjunction with the arrival of Dan Patrick
to NBC, former ESPN partner Keith Olbermann cracked wise
regarding Patrick’s presence on Football Night in America, the one-hour-plus highlights show that precedes the Sunday night game on ...
NBC sent the press release wide : This
fall, NBC’s Sunday night football show will be co-hosted
by former Sportscenter buddies Keith Olbermann and Dan Patrick. That’s quite a motley crew NBC has assembled for when it gangbangs highlights ...
This article's ending goes beyond the review and
summarizes the true greatness of baseball: "Baseball's Golden Age
is not a time set in stone. It's the time when each person learned to fall in love with the game."
Dan Patrick is reuniting with Keith Olbermann on
NBC’s Football Night In America. That’s the good news.
The bad news? Besides Patrick and Olbermann, “Football Night” features Bob Costas, Cris Collinsworth, Tiki Barber, Jerome ...
NBC has announced that Dan Patrick will join
the cast of Football Night in America, where he
will team up with his old SportsCenter partner Keith Olbermann to handle highlights of all the Sunday afternoon games. “We are proud to reunite one of ...

Dear Chicago Bull readers, It is with a
heavy heart that I announce that your favorite Duke
alum has packed his bags, and is heading to New York. If I may, I would like eulogize the Chris Duhon era in Chicago with a few words. Ahem. Chris Duhon was the 38th overall pick by the Chicago Bulls in the 2004 draft and the third of the day which included Ben Gordon and Luol Deng. Upon his ...
Somehow, a little part of us wonders, had
Knicks fans known his nickname and true self ,
if they might have cut him a little more slack. Instead, as we sadly predicted , Gallinari got the royal New York treatment last night. There's a tendency, when ...
For the last few months, since that rather
festive "Costas Now" business , we have been loathe
to expand much more on our initial reaction . But as Buzz Bissinger has continued to give interviews to the "respectable" media, making his "points," we ...
We continue today's roasting festivities with this utterly
brilliant video from the one and only JE SKEETS
