We finish with Bob Costas here on flexxCOACH's "Inside the Game".
Bob talks about the best parts of his position and how he is able to connect with and share experiences with people in covering games and events.
One thing he mentions is when David Letterman was leaving NBC for CBS he was offered by Letterman the hour slot after the Late Show to host his own show and be part of 60 minutes. He felt it was not something for him. He liked where he was at that time in his career and wanted to continue working sports and hosting the Olympics.
Bob also talks about the people who helped him and mentored him along the way.
We also take a look back at some moments in his career which really opened him up to opportunities.
Some of the highlights:
1988 World Series and the "tease" for the opening of game two of the World Series after Kirk Gibson had hit the homerun. Great story on how that moment came together.
Calling the elevator races and dog sled races on "Late Night with David Letterman".
Ahmad Rashad proposal on TV during "NFL Live".
Being in the movie Cars as Bob Cutlass.
It is a great segment to listen to the back stories.
