READ about Piers Morgan's long career in journalism here.
Following his entertaining and engaging interview with Piers Morgan (airing Friday, 9 p.m.,) sports broadcasting legend Bob Costas was gracious enough to spend some time in the show's "Green Room," sharing some humorous anecdotes, and showing off some of his patented Syracuse University pride.
Speaking exclusively with Jason Kurtz, the eight-time National Sportscaster of the Year award-winner reminisced about his early days working as an announcer, despite not officially graduating from college:
"My first salary was 11 grand a year in 1974 to call the Spirits of St. Louis of the ABA, but I did leave Syracuse prior to graduation. I don't regret the decision, much as I love the 'Cuse and I maintain a strong connection to them," Costas explained. "I thought well, a chance to not only do pro basketball, but to do it on KMOX in St. Louis, a legendary radio station, has a chance to lead to some good things. And it did. So, that's why I did what I did. Although there wasn't an immediate pot of gold."
Upon learning that Kurtz is a fellow Orangeman, Costas exclaims with glee, "this is a Syracuse centric interview! And all you Notre Dame, and Boston College, and Georgetown, and Fordham people, it's annoying, I know, I apologize. A blanket apology."
Watch the above clip to hear Costas offer details of the time he was once encouraged by his boss to grow a beard for an on-camera job, and then tune in at 9 as he joins Morgan, and a live, studio audience, for a full hour of primetime television covering everything from gun legislation to Lance Armstrong, Tiger Woods, and Mickey Mantle.

Oh, not him again.
Are you referring to His Griffness?
You and me both...
Piers you and Bob can both load your sorry asses up and go live in Britian. We left tyranny some 230 years ago and will not stand for it again. You don't like it well...Bye
Now now,Mikey Wikey!

Piers,
Piers,the peasants are revolting:had enough of whips,Piers,still rebelling,the doggy-woggies,spiked dusters,Piers,I think:
they're from South Colony.D'ye know,Piers,prior to recolonization they were SELLING GUNS TO 5-YEAR-OLDS!
5!
Same mental age as them! Delinquent Drones! And you should see their sisters! Eyes meet in the middle! Like Malcolm!
Carry on!
(Have you seen Cornwallis?They're REVOLTING,Piers!)
!
They over paid you Costas! You and Piers can kiss my gun! Hey Piers still bitter over the butt kicking the red coats took? I think it had a lot to do with the fact that your country was dumb enough to stand in a straight line and be shot! Why don't you take your love a tyrannical government and promote it back in the UK!
Hell,well there dumbo y'all need AR-15s to shoot varmints and 19 of your own Forgotten urinated on by the United States.
Twenty Candles.
Are you from the South?
Are you 5?
Hey Piers, You asked Mr Costas a question about why Americans call their Baseball series – ' The World Series '.
I don't know if you guys were being sarcastic with the answer on the show. But it's because the ' New York World' paper back in 1882 was its main sponsor and wanted their name incorporated with the cup. I am sure your producers might have enlightened you by now. This is just in case.
Don't care,I'm STICKING IT TO YANKS AND THEIR QUAINT AND QUIRKY ACCENTS THAT SOUND LIKE BUGS BUNNY ON
LAUGHING GAS AND CANADA IS BEST COS IT LISTENS UNLIKE DUMBO BEST GUN BROWN BESS UK#1.
You're no highlander. At best just another Numpty lowlander from Dumfries. But I'm tempted to say you're just a Welshman.
Reblogged this on Oxtapus *beta.
Ha-ha! Numpty from Dumfries! WHY Dumfries? Let's hear the Yanks pronounce THAT!
(I really am,y'know,sporrans and everythin',and NO PANTS RIGHT NOW ! )
Saturday night in Edinburgh=Friday night in Perth...
Piers-Why not let David retire without a snide remark from you
To Bob Costas
Did you ever look into Pete Rozelle's keeping soccer out
Your message didn't finish,Susanne...
(lemme guess:God,guns,2nd Amendment,Limeys,Commies,Muslims,grassy knolls,passing the buck,scapegoating,
xenophobia,paranoia,tin foil,aliens...give it a big stir every day,and you have the USA!)
Rule Britannia.[NO SCHOOL SHOOTINGS 17 YEARS,SOMETHING ELSE WE'RE BETTER AT WHICH AIN'T DIFFICULT!]
The hour spent with Bob Costas was the most enjoyable hour I spent in a very long time watching TV.
Are you his wife,and,if so,is that your idea of a thrill?
Piers, how about you look into Rachel Maddow's allegation against ABC News – see link below: http://www.nbcnews.com/id/26315908/ns/msnbc_tv-rachel_maddow_show/#51923619
Anything coming from MSNBC is ludicrous at best.
