Lol, everytime I look at Bob Costas I remember turning on the TV to the winter olympics or whatever it was and he comes on the screen looking all fucked up with pink eye in both eyes. Lmao.
I thought this was just a normal guy, until I walked away from my computer screen and heard his voice without seeing him, then all of a sudden I heard the voice of a radio god!
I remember watching that game Carey made the Jose Vicaino comment on WGN when I was a kid. Even though I was too young to understand what was going on, I could tell something was wrong based on Steve Stone's prolonged, awkward silence. There were a lot of moments like that later in Carey's career. He was messing up player's names so often, Stone just gave up on even trying to correct him.
But Bob never shared the other advice Harry gave him, "Whenever you switch from one team to another, like I did from the Sox to the Cubs, make sure you appropriate everything you did with the Sox and take it over to the Cubs and all those clueless drunks will think you and the Cubs created it all!" Man, Caray/Piersall was the greatest MLB announcing team ever, or certainly right up there. Caray goes to the Nort' Side, and becomes an instant caricature of his former glory. And of course, his glory years as Cardinals announcer. Too bad things get ruined.
So, I know this is morbid...but the night the announced Harry Caray died I was dealing with some domestic violence & the cops were throwing out my ex. The cops sat on the sofa to reflect on his passing as the ex was packing his things. Memories.
This is the problem with our society now. Nobody can even crack a joke on the air if it hints at anything politically incorrect. But now everyone is so afraid of other people getting butthurt over a JOKE that saying something like this, which is only meant to make people laugh, can get somebody who is great at their job fired immediately.
"boo hoo why can't us good ol white boys say our incredibly racist (sorry you might be super pedantic so xenophoboic) things anymore? I mean it's ridiculous that so many people feel so much more accepted in society I want it back to where we could make fun of a dominican republican as a mexican and he would just have to keep quiet about being upset about it, for fear of upsetting upper management and the people who pay his bills. I mean after all they should just be thankful they have the opportunity to entertain us amiright?"
Brandon Ottinger Weird how the butthurt guy has to make it about race. Read my comment, nowhere did I say anything about it being about race, I only said people are too worried about being politically correct. But you assume that because Harry Carry's joke was about somebody who was latino it was automatically racist. Guess what, it IS very sunny in Mexico. The fact that he didn't know where the person was from just speaks towards his own hilarious ignorance. If he was making a joke about a Canadian hockey player slipping on the ice (Even if the player was actually American) I doubt anyone would bat an eye. I swear, pansies like you are just ridiculous, get over yourself.
Hey everybody. I'm Harry Caray's ghost and I just want to say to Costas that I will no longer go out to dinner with him for calling me out on that ball player's nationality error. So, don't come to my grave begging me to go out to dinner with you ever again !!
Bob Costas took Harry’s “what’s it all about” philosophy to heart. Especially the “bullshit” part. Costas is very entertaining and a great storyteller. However, many of his stories are complete fabrications known as bullshit. My buddy knows Costas quite well and Bob is full of baloney, often, but in an endearing sort of way.
Conan says that no one knows Harry Caray for any other reason than Will Ferrell's impression. Then he shows a picture of the Will Ferrell character, but not the real man himself. The Ferrell character is even used in the thumbnail. It minimizes the contributions of the actual Harry Caray. Couldn't Conan and company show a little more respect, and show a picture of the actual Harry Caray?
Sorry, Ferrell fans, his imitation of Caray was overly broad. ham-handed and unfunny. And while Caray's vocal style was best captured by John Caponera, Costas's impression is great for a guy whose talent is elsewhere, and the Vizcaíno anecdote priceless, like Caray himself.
How tf does this only have 83 dislikes. Wtf Conan I generally like your stuff but man don't show will Ferrell and not have will Ferrell. More people should dislike before they just click off
Harry is an American treasure, always remember, forever missed.
The way Costas imitated Harry asking about how a guy from Mexico can lose a ball in the sun, swear I was watching Will Ferrell, spot on lol!
The Ottoman Empire still existed when the Cubs last won the Series. Rasputin and Archduke Franz Ferdinand were still alive.
MrClickity 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I bet the Archduke enjoyed an ice cold Budwieser now and again.
😂😂😂😂
Harry was great at what he did. He added some fun when times looked rough his team. I remember him well and fondly😊
Harry Carey once said "You know Steve, Sandberg spelled backwards is grab ass"
I lived in Illinois when I was a kid, and watching Cubs games with Harry Caray was a classic part of my childhood.
That was actually a great Harry Caray impression!
This is so funny. Bob Costas does a great impression as well.
That's friggin funny! Well done Costas! 😂
I’d like to hang out with Bob for just one day and just listen to him tell stories! Outstanding stuff!
Lol, everytime I look at Bob Costas I remember turning on the TV to the winter olympics or whatever it was and he comes on the screen looking all fucked up with pink eye in both eyes. Lmao.
No one loves Bob Costas more than Bob Costas.
I thought this was just a normal guy, until I walked away from my computer screen and heard his voice without seeing him, then all of a sudden I heard the voice of a radio god!
Go Costa!
He was a charm -
miss you Harry!!!
GO CUBS - GO !!!!!!!!!!
Glad Harry didn’t have to deal with the PC bullcrap…RIP Harry

Hey Steve...How would you pronounce Brooks Kieschnick's last name backwards? I miss those days!!
Costas is the best.. great stories
Bob Costas can really tell a story 👏😂
As I've had to endure my whole life listening to Costas bore me to almost death, this was the funniest I've heard him.
Bob Costas Is a Vampire.
NO MORE WAITING !
too FUNNY, LOL LOL
Will Farrell doing Harry would be preferred over ageless vampire Costas who's looked exactly the s as same since 1987.
If you were a hot dog, and you were starving would you eat yourself?
Don’t jerk me around! It’s yes or no! 😂🤣
It’s a simple question…lol
I'd smother myself in relish and mustard, id be delicious
I know I would, heck I'd have seconds
You HAVE to answer! We want facts not opinions!
It's a simple question Norm! If you were Mexican would you lose the ball in the sun?!
I clicked for Will Ferrell you sneaky bastards!
But Bob never shared the other advice Harry gave him, "Whenever you switch from one team to another, like I did from the Sox to the Cubs, make sure you appropriate everything you did with the Sox and take it over to the Cubs and all those clueless drunks will think you and the Cubs created it all!"

Ahhh the Great Harry Caray!
" I just can't figure it out" _-Harry Caray_
This set makes the guests look like small puppets compared to Conan.
Sounds like the way this guy drank he could go toe to toe with Wade Boggs in a drinking competition hahaha!
couldn't they get a booster chair for Bob!!
The 4 Bs. Of course.
Cubs did it!!!!!!
I thought I was gonna see will Ferrell
No Will Ferrell? :(
I don't voted this stupidity. Normally Conan is awesome but wow, they were lame.
harry was classic
Great story!!!
Bob Costas is the most erudite, articulate, edifying sportscaster of all time
said no one ever
nah, I never would have thought so either, but it's turned out to be true.
Howard Cosell? Who also wore a rug.
Sorry, but Vin Scully owns sportscasting.
Awww someones mommy bought them a dictionary for Christmas
for YEARS, i had no idea that harry was a real person.
I've been misremembering this for years I thought it was Jose Hernandez he said that about.
never heard bob curse before
Me either. But he was saying what Harry was saying to Bob.
WE WERE EXPECTING TO SEE WILL, DON'T CLICKBAIT US CONAN. Make good. Thanks!
Harry said, “Bob, try not to suck so much.”
If only Bob had listened…
So, I know this is morbid...but the night the announced Harry Caray died I was dealing with some domestic violence & the cops were throwing out my ex. The cops sat on the sofa to reflect on his passing as the ex was packing his things. Memories.
That is sweet, and fucked up at the same time. Kinda how the paramedics who tried to revive my brother were talking about baseball tickets.
Damn! I thought Will was going to be on the show!
I'm just watching the comments grow every one second
Exciting, yes?
And my favorite baseball manager ever. Joe madden. Miss him not with rays anymore.
Joe got it done
brng back steve bartman to wrigley field
I'm mexican and I think is funny.
Thank you
wtf.
I clicked on because I saw Will Ferrell as Harry Caray in the Thumbnail
why wasn't "bullshit" censored ???
someone should get fired immediately
It isn't censored on cable tv.
It wasn't censored? That's some BS right there...
No, it's TBS.
Conan is on cable 📺
LINDA HAAAM!

If you don't think Harry Caray's comment was racist, then you have no idea what the word means.
Paul Johnson If you think my point was about whether or not his joke was racist, then you have no idea what I'm even talking about to begin with.
Patchy You're right. I misunderstood your post. Sorry.
Hey everybody. I'm Harry Caray's ghost and I just want to say to Costas that I will no longer go out to dinner with him for calling me out on that ball player's nationality error. So, don't come to my grave begging me to go out to dinner with you ever again !!

I'm looking to see where the hair stops and the wig begins... O_o
yeah～
HEY!
Harmless joke.
Would it be as bad if someone made a joke about a norwegian football player losing the ball in a snow game?
big build ups...mediocre punch lines :/
really dislike your avatar.
perfect assessment armpit.
More like perfect punch lines. Absolutely perfect.
costas. the very definition of vanilla.
Note for Conan, there was never a curse to the Red Sox. They lost fair and square...... Yankees 27 titles Red Sox will never match the Yankees Period
Clickbait GRRRRRRRRRR
how
King Jovi
I thought Will Farrell would be there.
Conan says that no one knows Harry Caray for any other reason than Will Ferrell's impression. Then he shows a picture of the Will Ferrell character, but not the real man himself. The Ferrell character is even used in the thumbnail. It minimizes the contributions of the actual Harry Caray.

The ultimate click bait.
Booze, broads, baseball and bullshit. Words for life.
How can a guy from Mexico loose a ball in the sun? 🤣🤣🤣
Bob Costas impersonates Harry Caray way better than Will Farrell
Ad is way too long
Sorry, Ferrell fans, his imitation of Caray was overly broad. ham-handed and unfunny. And while Caray's vocal style was best captured by John Caponera, Costas's impression is great for a guy whose talent is elsewhere, and the Vizcaíno anecdote priceless, like Caray himself.

wow he drank beer and liked sports so cool and interesting (sarcasm)
geez he hardly ages. what is he doing?
Abraham Lincoln was still alive when the Cubs last won the WS...
Costas' hair dye....yikes Bob.
Bob costas likes Budweiser, boats, bacon, and boys
I thought it was Japanese suicide
5
Harry Caray IS Bernie Sanders!
...
I hate costes
That was really offensive Bob, if you’re a snowflake ❄️
Yay racism
How tall is Costas? He looks like a child in that chair. More importantly, he's not very entertaining.
Booze, broads, baseball, and bullshit!
Conan tries too hard. Chill out.
Woah, First.
:D
you were 3 seconds faster than the other guy!
12th
FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!
you were 3 seconds slower than the other guy :(
I'm aware of that
I dont see the big deal?
not funny
Costas's toupee is readily apparent and awful-looking. The hair color he has chosen is also utterly ridiculous for a man well into his 60s.
Cubs did it!!!!!!
