Bob Costas: Howard Cosell resented Al Michaels and me
Eight-time National Sportscaster of the Year award winner Bob Costas lets us in on his encounters and relationships with fellow broadcasting icons John Madden, Howard Cosell and Jim McKay. Costas describes when he was selected as John Madden’s auditioning partner in 1979, a candid conversation with Howard Cosell shortly before his passing in 1995 and impactful praise from ABC’s Jim McKay prior to Costas heading to Barcelona in 1992 to work his first Olympic broadcast with NBC.
