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!
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 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?
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
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.
Harry is an American treasure, always remember, forever missed.
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 Carey once said "You know Steve, Sandberg spelled backwards is grab ass"
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!
No, Costas is better
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!
That's friggin funny! Well done Costas! 😂
This is so funny. Bob Costas does a great impression as well.
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!
Harry was great at what he did. He added some fun when times looked rough his team. I remember him well and fondly😊
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’d like to hang out with Bob for just one day and just listen to him tell stories! Outstanding stuff!

Hey Steve...How would you pronounce Brooks Kieschnick's last name backwards? I miss those days!!
Go Costa!
He was a charm -
miss you Harry!!!
GO CUBS - GO !!!!!!!!!!
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!
for YEARS, i had no idea that harry was a real person.
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!"

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.
Glad Harry didn’t have to deal with the PC bullcrap…RIP Harry
Costas is the best.. great stories
Bob Costas Is a Vampire.
Bob Costas can really tell a story 👏😂
It's a simple question Norm! If you were Mexican would you lose the ball in the sun?!
NO MORE WAITING !
No Will Ferrell? :(
I don't voted this stupidity. Normally Conan is awesome but wow, they were lame.
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.
This set makes the guests look like small puppets compared to Conan.
" I just can't figure it out" _-Harry Caray_
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
I clicked for Will Ferrell you sneaky bastards!
Ahhh the Great Harry Caray!
I thought I was gonna see will Ferrell
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 📺
Cubs did it!!!!!!

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.
WE WERE EXPECTING TO SEE WILL, DON'T CLICKBAIT US CONAN. Make good. Thanks!
couldn't they get a booster chair for Bob!!
too FUNNY, LOL LOL
The 4 Bs. Of course.
Sounds like the way this guy drank he could go toe to toe with Wade Boggs in a drinking competition hahaha!
Great story!!!
I've been misremembering this for years I thought it was Jose Hernandez he said that about.
Damn! I thought Will was going to be on the show!
never heard bob curse before
Me either. But he was saying what Harry was saying to Bob.
harry was classic
Harry said, “Bob, try not to suck so much.”
If only Bob had listened…
wtf.
I clicked on because I saw Will Ferrell as Harry Caray in the Thumbnail
I'm mexican and I think is funny.
Thank you
I'm just watching the comments grow every one second
Exciting, yes?
brng back steve bartman to wrigley field
And my favorite baseball manager ever. Joe madden. Miss him not with rays anymore.
Joe got it done

Harmless joke.
Would it be as bad if someone made a joke about a norwegian football player losing the ball in a snow game?
Aahhh Jose Vizcaino
LINDA HAAAM!
big build ups...mediocre punch lines :/
really dislike your avatar.
perfect assessment armpit.
More like perfect punch lines. Absolutely perfect.
I'm looking to see where the hair stops and the wig begins... O_o
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

The ultimate click bait.

Booze, broads, baseball and bullshit. Words for life.
How can a guy from Mexico loose a ball in the sun? 🤣🤣🤣
Clickbait GRRRRRRRRRR
how
King Jovi
I thought Will Farrell would be there.
costas. the very definition of vanilla.
Ad is way too long
HEY!

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