Bob Costas has been a divisive on-air personality since the 80s. I get why some find him annoying but I've always liked him. I love broadcasters who love the sport they're calling and Costas loves baseball.
Great play-by-play broadcaster of the 80's & 90's for sure. Recently, he's been rough when covering baseball. He definitely still posseses a great sports commentary voice & his Mickey Mantle eulogy was so good!
I wonder if some of the criticism Costas got this season wore on him. Even Costas has admitted Vin Scully would have gotten roasted today for calling games in such a deliberate style. Times have changed and baseball broadcasters are expected to bring energy and a fast-paced style. I get it but it's sad to see him go.
Enjoy the added freedom Bob! You can quickly find new ways to enjoy your time, when you embrace it and not see it as a loss from something you have done for many years and at the highest level. It's a brand new chapter and the only way to have success in a new chapter is to turn the page on the way things use to be, look forward to tomorrow and to the new opportunities it provides you.
this might be hard for young fans to believe, but bob was a great play by play man in my early adulthood of the 80's and 90's. then i remember tuning into a mlb network game a few years ago, and couldn't believe how far he had fallen off. fast forward to this post season, and he was simply insufferable. i'm quite sure he heard his evisceration all over social media, which no doubt led to this (correct) decision. thanks for the memories bob.
Costas is fantastic. I hope this isn't the beginning of a more serious mental decline. I still think he is better than most. Wishing the best for him.😊
When I was boy Bob Costas voice over a baseball game was a treat to listen too. However Bob this past post season you sound out dated and I don’t want to be rude more than I may have already been . So thanks for the moments since 1996 till now for myself.
Lost all respect for Mr Costas during the 1987 ALCS when he said he was going to name his first born son that was due at any time Kirby after Kirby Puckett. He’s a biased POS and should have never called a game after that.

You work for 40yrs to have $1M in your retirement, meanwhile some people are putting just $10K into trading from just few months ago and now they are multimillionaires
Most rich people stay rich by spending like the poor and investing without stopping then most poor people stay poor by spending like the rich yet not investing like the rich but impressing them. People prefer to spend money on liabilities, Rather than investing in assets and be very profitable
Comparing him to Sandy is hilarious and purposely dishonest. Bob was over the hill for YEARS! The last couple were ugly. He went out like the Mick, not like Sandy.
Thank God he is gone. Another guy (like Russo) who memorized baseball history so he thinks he knows baseball. DON"T LET THE DOOR HIT YOU ON YOUR ASS ON THE WAY OUT BOB
Legend
Costas was Top 5 could tell a story about a player in 5 seconds while the ball was in the air 👏💯👍
Don't go😢😢😢
Vin scully was the greatest

Bob Costas - America’s moral authority on everything.
I hope that you keep working Bob! On your terms man.
Costas was one of the best ever to call baseball play by play and one of the best historians of the sport. Thanks Bob.

Bob is great. The morons who hate on him are so clueless. I’ve been watching Bob since I was literally a little kid. I’m 49 now.
Forget the haters Bob! I’ll listen to you over Joe Buck and Ian eagle anyday

You will be missed Bob Costas. Hopefully you will make cameos!
That Vin Scully impersonation was spot on❤
Costas is fantastic. I hope this isn't the beginning of a more serious mental decline. I still think he is better than most. Wishing the best for him.😊
Better than most baseball announcers who just talk and talk and talk
Cool they let him “retire” instead of not being asked to do the ALDS again. It was time

much 2 2 2 soon Bob ... must be a reason to continue !!!

Wow, good thing you don't hold a grudge. Prayers my friend.
Did Bob get a facelift? Something looks off. He was the voice of my childhood, and hope he gets some proper care.
Bob is 72 years old. Seemed to have aged overnight.
His last broadcast was an embarrassment

You are so correct! Save, invest and spend for necessities and a few small luxuries relatives to one's total assets ratio.
Waking up every 14th of each month to $210,000 it’s a blessing to I and my family… Big gratitude to Josh Olfert🙌
Hello how do you make such monthly?? I'm a born Christian and sometimes I feel so down 🤦♀️of myself because of low finance but I still believe in God
The problem is TBS, when compared to NBC its little league compared to the big league. Bob was better with NBC sports and baseball then terrible TBS.
😭😭 DAMN IT BOB NOOO I'm only 30 YOU A LEGEND! I don't want none of these new young bucks they don't know shit.
No way we made him quit 😂
Ps this is obviously a joke!!!!!!!
He has been terrible the past few years. Enjoy semi retirement.
bob is a political hack. go away forever, bob.
Oh, sine your pitty on the runny kine!
He was horrible
Who’s gonna slobber on an about Obama now? Go away, Bobby you’re disappointing.
Bob is too arrogant and about himself when he approaches a game. It's hard to listen to.
Loved Bob as an announcer. Hated it when he interjected his politics.
Bon Costas stick to sports 😂
Stay away from politics 😮
He had a strong social conscience on the Steroids Issue. Everybody else looked the other way. Just another one of The Greats Gone.
Sandy Kofax..... Bob Costas lol
One more tiresome, tedious legend in his own mind goes out the door.. so long, good luck and goodbye.
Comparing him to Sandy is hilarious and purposely dishonest. Bob was over the hill for YEARS! The last couple were ugly. He went out like the Mick, not like Sandy.
Bye. See ya. Don't let the door hit on the way out.
What was a pretty good announcer ruined all that by pushing political agenda. See ya...
You won’t be missed Bob ✌️
Thank God he is gone. Another guy (like Russo) who memorized baseball history so he thinks he knows baseball. DON"T LET THE DOOR HIT YOU ON YOUR ASS ON THE WAY OUT BOB
THANK GOD BECAUSE HE SUCKS AND WAS TERRIBLE doing the Yankees series against the Royals !!
