Starting point is 00:00:00 You're listening to Comedy Central. When 60 Minutes premiered in September 1968, there was nothing like it. This is 60 Minutes. It's a kind of a magazine for television. Very few have been given access to the treasures in our archives. But that's all about to change. Like none of this stuff gets looked at, that's what's incredible. I'm Seth Done of CBS News,
Starting point is 00:00:27 listened to 60 Minutes, a second look on Apple podcasts starting September 17. You know, even though the coronavirus has shut down most sports, there's still sports news out there, which means it's time to go to Roywood Jr. and Michael Costa for another edition of I apologize for talking while you were talking. Yeah, what's up sports fans? I'm Roywood Junior. He's Michael Costa. I don't know about you, but I have been missing sports so much, man. I know. I know, same here Roy. I'm so desperate that I've been betting on all the old ESPN games that they've been airing. I'm sorry you what?
Starting point is 00:01:12 What did you say? You know, and I'm down $5,000 but I'm going to make it back because I'm watching last year's Super Bowl and I've got a feel them the 49ers are going to win big. The Kansas City cheetsets cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap. the. the. the. the. the. they're. they're. they're they. they're not. they're not. they're not. they're not. they're not. they're they're they're their.

I'm. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the, you know, never mind, that's going to end bad. But I will tell you what I have been watching on ESPN, this Michael Jordan ten-part documentary, The Last Dance, detailing his last year with the Chicago Bulls quality. Well, yeah, you and everyone else, Roy, I mean, that they leave nothing to the imagination. Those shorts were so short I could see who had a vasectomy and watching all of that old NBA footage with this documentary Costa it's really made me appreciate how fast the fashion
Starting point is 00:01:55 trends changed. The NBA in just a few short years went from really short shorts to Jordan's enormous baggy suits. It was like MC Hammer had a formal wear line. Anyway, let's talk current sports. Now, I don't know what you've been going through Kowster, but all the leagues are on hiatus. And honestly, I've been going through baseball withdraws. I have a fever of 104. I have a lot of chills. I've been shaking at night, a little bit of diarrhea. Classic signs of baseball withdrawal. I think maybe you should get that that thaaaaa theee the the the the thea the thea thea the the the the the the the the the the, the, the, the, the, thea, to the, the, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to thu thu thu thu thu th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, theeeeeean, thean, thean, toean, toean, to to to to to to to to to to to to but Roy, you'd be happy to know that they are bringing baseball back in Asia with a few tweets.
Starting point is 00:02:32 If you're wondering what Major League Baseball will look like when it comes back, pay attention to South Korea. The Korean Baseball Association put on an exhibition game announcing the start of the new season will happen on May 5th. games will be played without fans in their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. thiii. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. to, thi. to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, toe, toe, th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the. the. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. toea. toea. toea. toea. toea. new season will happen on May 5th. Games will be played without fans in the stands in the beginning. Some other rules players can't shake hands or give high-fives and this may be a tough one. There's no spitting allowed. And in other parts of the world, baseball is back but with a bizarre twist in Taiwan, cardboard cutouts and mannequins sit in the stands instead of fans. You know these mannequinsins remind me of myself when I'm watching baseball, emotionless, bored,
Starting point is 00:03:08 no nipples. My doctors are stumped, right? Oh, come on, man, don't be a hater. You've got to have something in the stands. Just make sure those mannequins aren't imported from Philadelphia, because if they are, they're still going to be throwing batteries at you too strict. No shaking hands, no high-fives, no spitting. I mean, what's even the point?
Starting point is 00:03:29 Look, you have to change with the times. Whatever it takes to bring baseball back, I'm all for it. In fact, I'd do a step further. After you win the bit game, forget, to about football Roy because not only is Tom Brady going to be a Tampa Bay Buccaneer this upcoming season, but he's also going to be reunited with an old friend. After one year away from the game, former New England Patriot Rob Grunkowski is coming back to play for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, once again joining forces with his former teammate, newly traded quarterback Tom Brady. It doesn't matter brains and no brains. This could be a powerful duo. You just got to hope
Starting point is 00:04:11 that the season doesn't get delayed too long. Tom Brady doesn't have a lot of time left. I mean, the man is already 68 years old. You better watch out for that Corona time, Tom. You're in the most vulnerable demographic. I will say th a th. th. th. the th. the th. th. the th. the th. to to the to to to to to to the to their their to their to their their their to their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. t. tom. t. t. tome. t. tom. tom. tom. tom. tom. tom. train. tom. tom. tr. tr. tr. tr. tr. tome. their their their. t. vulnerable demographic. I will say this man, it's going to be weird seeing two longtime patriots donning a buccaneers uniforms. My eyes aren't going to know what's going on. I hear you, it's going to be like if they made the Pope the new KFC Colonel. I'm happy for them, but it's going to take some getting used to. Yeah, I'd probably still be there. All right sports fans. That's it. the the the th. th. th. the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. to to to to to to to sports. thi. the to sports. to sports. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to th. th. th. th. the the th. the the the the the th. the the. the the the the the. the the. the the. the the the the the the the the the the the th game on the schedule, which is, let me see, the Kent County, Michigan Crossword Competition, God damn.
