Charley Steiner Outtakes Including Kerry Wood

[@LanceJ.]

When Sportscenter anchors felt like your favorite uncles. Now they all seem like empty suits.

[@brandondees2130]

It’s hard to explain NOW how good SportsCenter USED to be. If you were there, you know. If you weren’t there, you can never know.

[@blackspider1405]

I was there.. it was can't miss television. damn near all of them were great.

[@marcosc7375]

I was there and I know and yes it was the best. After the games sort of like must see tv every late night.

[@ZealKingdom]

I used to watch it constantly. Every day. I probably haven't turned it on in ten years.

[@packman4664]

A period of time nobody will ever experience again

[@jct5]

Yep...ESPN in the 90's was TOP LEVEL!

[@MrSoxfan56]

Steiner's laugh is contagious. He is a classic.

[@nateword]

sure is

[@charleswhitmerjr7554]

It was I watch this Evey couple months and never gets old.

[@annaritaranalli1791]

Really

[@catboyzee]

Francis Scott 'Off' Key...one of the best one-liners in sport journalism history.

[@mikemahoney6351]

Every time I get down in the dumps, I watch this video. Brings a smile to my face.

[@bigtip8371]

He made it up on the spot too! quick wit

[@pronkb000]

@@bigtip8371 And he thought he was going to be fired over it!

[@zr8693]

I use that joke now and people think I'm the clever one.....I don't laugh hysterically or scratch my ear to indicate going to commercial break though LOL

[@porcupinecraig]

"Kerry Wood making a relief appearance" is pretty damn good.

[@SoulwinningstudentsOrg]

The relief appearance line had me dying...

[@jamesedgar3442]

"I can't stop now, I have to finish!" ROTFL! I was watching that live. As soon as Charley said, "...after pleading guilty... oh, boy..." I knew he was toast and I was about to witness an all-time classic.

[@MyEnemy]

When he touched his right ear you knew he was in trouble too, ha ha.

[@sonic-qh7ed]

your turn. just the best times in sports watching highlights and funny spots late in the evenings

[@nateword]

Sportscenter will NEVER be like this again

[@sillygoose635]

yes it will

[@redfordreddington8834]

@C. that has no relevancy

[@derekray1376]

It's still on?

[@fezzik7619]

Why not? Do you think people are incapable of a sense of humor now? This “back in the day” nostalgia bs is always so stupid. I watched it back then. I watch it now. Get over it.

[@nateword]

@fezzik7619 ummm yeah ok

[@blachubear]

Man Sportscenter was so much fun back in the 90's where they had the heavyweights Steiner, Patrick, Olbermann, Robin Roberts, Kilborn & a young Stuart Scott. As a matter of fact, the 90's was way too much fun period. Where's that DeLorean Time Machine, I want to go back.

[@skippyjunior2744]

Olbermann was and remains an a-1 ahole

[@danjenkins8981]

And Eisen!

[@erwinchan6077]

They have laid off a ton of people so now all they have are cheap, plastic-looking news readers with no personality.

[@yprice850]

Sportscenter was really like a long SNL sketch. It use to be so hilarious with the different on-air personalities and them each having their own little quirks. I literally would watch Sportscenter three times a day. I miss the 90's.

[@Pensfan5919]

And a serviceable Jack Edwards!

[@dcbandnerd]

The way Steiner said "your turn" never fails to make me laugh.

[@pronkb000]

"Are you done?" "I HOPE SO!"

[@djwolf12]

Charlie Steiner, You sir, are a National Treasure.

[@1Dub79]

Charley Steiner used to have me just rolling with his outtakes. I really miss him on SportsCenter.

[@jasonjaeger4860]

Back when sports center was actually worth watching, the glory days of ESPN.

[@1Dub79]

@@jasonjaeger4860Oh! Absolutely! I used to watch ESPN, re-LIGIOUSLY.

[@jppsfingers50]

It's over when Steiner starts reaching for that right ear lmao.

[@allanr6132]

Never really noticed that before. That's hilarious. Steiner is a national treasure.

[@almostfm]

That was your cue to start the three second countdown before he just imploded.

[@Tyrunner0097]

@@allanr6132 Yup, that was his signal to the camera crew that he was going to crack up.

[@jjbigfoot9077]

It was actually his cue to the teleprompter guy to stop rolling.

[@sheepdavis]

​@@jjbigfoot9077 no it wasn't

[@chippaflix]

lol this is great. Oh how I miss the good ole days of sportscenter in the 90s

[@rstevens1836]

New goal in life: find a job and career that makes you laugh like Steiner at his job. Clearly that's a happy guy happy to be working. Inspiring and hilarious. :)

[@errose5967]

Ahh, back when sports center was fun to watch. those days are long gone

[@GreatCdn59]

whenever I am having a bad day, I come back to this video

[@bhmch39]

This was why sportscenter was fun. Charlie made you want to watch for HIS reaction. I still laugh when I hear carl say "uh ohh" lmbo!

[@davecorbett3924]

My God SportsCenter used to be GREAT!! Would watch 3 shows a night. This is classic. Gone are the days

[@gogetter5137]

Does any human being you've ever known possess anywhere near the kind of infectious laugh that Charley Steiner has? Not a chance! Any knowledgable fan of the classic Sportscenters from the 90's would put Steiner in their top 3 anchors ever! His steadfast professionalism mixed with his sporadic fits of uncontrollable laughter? He's a fuckin national treasure! Many posters in this thread have already said the same thing. When I'm depressed and I'm feeling down. This is one of my go to videos. You'd have to be completely dead inside to be a sports fan and not absolutely love this guy!

[@reidwiersema9367]

Well said "Go Getter". I too watch Steiner to cheer up if I've had a bad day. Sportscenter was so much fun back then. Those were the good old days! Charley Steiner is now the voice of Dodgers baseball.

[@SuperThumpasaurus]

James May from Top Gear. Watch the homemade campervan episode and wait until Clarkson says, "I asked James to pull behind me address the gravity of the situation but he wasn't much help..."

[@larslewis7189]

0:59, I really thought I was going to pee my pants laughing at that epic bit on Kerry Wood. Charley Steiner's the man.

[@STP43FAN1]

Kerry Wood had to pee his pants after that, too. ;)

[@rickm.5228]

When you devoted your time out of your day to watch this and you weren’t disappointed. I miss these good times!

[@dansanfrisco]

Whenever I massively embarrass myself Charlie Steiner’s laughter fills my ears.

[@crayhead]

In tears everytime!

[@danlee2191]

I'm in the market for a tool chest, had to come here for some SC Steiner outtake fixes, always good stuff

[@seth4954]

Charley was one of the best. Miss him

[@long-time-first-time]

Charley is an ESPN legend. The Dodgers are lucky to have him.

[@Eaglearm95]

I watch this every day or two just to give me a laugh and make me feel better. God I miss Charlie!!

[@jvincc7297]

I wanna see SVP host Baseball Tonight with Steiner and Kirchen. It would be just amazing.

[@TheVirusOfHumanity]

That 90’s SC vibe gets me all nostalgic. Watching it with my dad just about every weeknight, we’d crack up together. Miss you dad.

[@chrisramirez990]

You & Rick Monday, have been my summer companions for 18 years. Miss You!

That was ESPN. Not ESJW.

[@beeoehm3108]

“I can’t stop now I have to finish!” LAWL 🤣

[@hpa2005]

0:26 - It was at that moment that Mr. Steiner knew he wouldn't be able to finish the story with a straight face.

[@thema1998]

This video had me dying from laughter, especially when he said that Wood was making a relief appearance. 🤣

[@Christoo92]

The best damn ESPN anchor period!

[@danw2112]

Someone needs to make an ultimate Charley Steiner video with these outtakes and bloopers along with the Follow Me to Freedom and Melrose Place commercials.

[@teariet.tekken-wolffenn5881]

His laugh is amazing. Especially when Car Lewis sings the National anthem. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@camrencross645]

THIS is ESPN to me. Used to be so darn fun, and not all the arguing and yelling.

[@DWeb0414]

💯

[@buckskipper]

I've probably watched this video ten times the last four years and I still crack up as hard as the first time.

[@DrewMongo]

I'm crying from this omg

[@triplem13]

Dude is HILARIOUS!!!

[@marinerman]

Rock on Charley Steiner!!! The man of many outtakes and wheezing laughs!

[@buckskipper]

I've seen this video a dozen times or so and still laugh like it's the first time.

[@brnreede]

Other sportscasters would have made the moments regular, but Charlie makes the moments classic and hilarious. The Kerry Wood moment was made hilarious by him. I still can't stop laughing everytime I watch this video.

[@Tyrunner0097]

I liked how he realized how the Kerry Wood story was going to end up. "After pleading...oh boy..."

[@rickb.284]

Loved these guys..ESPN should have kept them..

[@radudeATL]

It must be amazing to have that much fun at work!!!

[@dinkyramirez4425]

Sportscenter will go on. But Charlie Steiner IT WILL NEVER BE THE SAME WITHOUT YOU... Greatest Laughter of All Time.

RIP Sportscenter. You were awesome

[@BroadStBully194]

First time I watched this I cried from laughing so hard.

[@jasonkoch3182]

Bob Ley cracking up is the funniest part of that incredible moment.

[@pronkb000]

What makes it notable is that Ley and Steiner were both longtime ESPNers who normally did the show VERY straight-laced. Steiner had a wry sense of humor but Ley was pretty much a straight newsman. No catchphrases or pop-culture references. So it was hilarious, but part of what made it hilarious is that it was generally out of character for the both of them.

[@Ibelikemj]

That was Jack Edwards actually

[@Madisonrvr]

I love how when he knows he's going to lose it on a few of these he goes "oh NO!"

[@Boss3Nate]

Still makes me laugh so hard that I cry.... hahahaha

[@gcgcgcg]

uh-oh

[@jjbigfoot9077]

He's a national treasure.

[@MrSuave53]

Charlie Steiner made ESPN worth looking at, because if something happened out of the ordinary, you knew he would have to bring it up and be prepared for that laugh, because he never finished what he was going to say.

[@JamesPRoachJr]

1:02 - (snort) "your turn!" Too funny...

[@blakekeeton4021]

Watching Charlie Steiner struggle to keep his composure is equal to Tim Conway breaking up poor Harvey Korman...

[@BAYAREA-kd1ig]

You can tell his laugh is genuine and contagious. Jimmy Fallon could only wish

[@mrcraigis40]

ESPN needs Charley back!!

[@roguepeanut151]

I love how when he knows he is going to lose it, he always would touch his ear to let the producers know.
