Bob Costas admitted that he didn’t have a great performance in the ALDS, where his play-by-play of the Yankees series was widely panned.
“Now, I don’t place much stock in what two or three people say on Twitter, because on Twitter, there’s no misdemeanors. There’s only felonies,” Costas said. “But when I knew myself that it just wasn’t what I’ve generally been able to do — and I wasn’t comparing myself to 1995 when I’m doing the World Series, I was comparing myself to August and September of last season when things were as they usually were.
“And somehow, I might have gotten a little better as the five games went along, but it wasn’t what I intended to do. Now, why do I care about that?”Costas said it would be his decision as to whether he returns to the broadcasts on TBS. “I’m back if I wanna be back to do it. I’m only doing it as much as what I want to do. I did a dozen Olympics. It was time to leave that,” Costas said. “Most of what I’ve done is in the past. But I only want to do a handful of things and one of the things I want to do is a little bit of baseball. Why?
“Because I’ve always liked it and because it’s gratifying to me when people say the sort of things you’ve said. ‘You do it differently,’ and I appreciate that. I don’t need a parade. I just like that. So I felt like I dropped the ball on that, and it made me feel bad about it for that reason.”Share this article:
