I love him and think he's done a great job tbh. I just wish Marv Albert could be at his side once again...

There are not many crowds or places in the country that have a better impact on the game than at Iowa State. The Cyclone fans are truly a sixth man. The place is so loud and always a fantastic crowd." - Former Kansas and current North Carolina head coach Roy Williams

I really enjoy Bob Costas, he is one of the few that never seems to ask a stupid question, he thinks before he speaks | | |

His interview with President Bush actually had substance and was really interesting.
Costas rules. NBA on NBC Baby!

Looks like I'm in the minority here but I find him annoying. I liked him in BASEketball though.

Dumb poll. Not to mention, all hair is already dead - so it's hard for Costas to die his hair.
Now he might dye it though...

Now he might dye it though... You can certainly have your opinion on the poll but I do think it is interesting that a guy I consider to be pretty "substantive" seems to be coloring his hair for certain and, it is my guess looking at his face, seems to have had a face lift. I am mildly surprised that he would do either or both. I just find it interesting and, frankly, was curious if others thought he was doing (or had done) either.
I have always enjoyed Costas' work...both in sports and out of sports. He used to have a really solid late night interview show that was not exclusively sports oriented back in the 90s that was great. I do think he sometimes tries to be a little too "cute" with his comments but overall he does a solid job.
By the way...good job out of you...in spotting the first error I have made all year!

I'd much prefer to watch Bob Costas at 12:30 in the morning than Carson Daly.

I think he does a fairly decent job.......in small doses. He's in love with his voice and talks too much about the "essence" or whatever of the sport.
