I’m so happy for the Minnesota boy to get to talk about a Minnesota team being GOOD 😂 it’s been so long for us

[@pgavin66mpls]

indeed

[@cheerwhiner7829]

I don’t think I’ve seen Kilby since his talk show went off the air forever ago… thought he became a writer or something. He was one of my favorite SC hosts back in the day.

[@barrym2112]

My favorite Sports Center anchors of all time. The 90’s was the Golden Age for that show, equal parts comedy and highlights. The hosts were so good that most were eventually poached by other networks and shows. All good things…😢

[@lewismooney3941]

Killby is an absolute legend! I’ll say it every time you have him on! He was so pivotal to me in high school! I didn’t miss the daily show when I was in rural Idaho!

[@dr.noisewater6291]

Espresso Martini..... A waste of my time. What a gem. 🤣🤣

[@Kitty8791]

Hah, Belichick would agree. Pat McAfee talked about how he wanted to order 1 for him at dinner, only to find out he hates coffee & had never drank it. 🤣

[@99guspuppet8]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ I love Craig Kilborn so much. He brought me so much joy. Let’s all go to Sugar rock Candy Mountain.

[@ryanbarongan1129]

Man, I haven’t seen Craig in ages. He looks a lot different but still great.

[@beachman3969]

All Hail Lord Kilby. Great interview! The Life Gorgeous travels well.

[@ErikStang]

Pure gold, Rich. Pure gold! Correction: Christian Ponder was drafted at #12 and Daunte Culpepper at #11. They are correct that JJ McCarthy is the highest drafted QB in Vikings history. FWIW, Tarkenton was drafted in the 3rd round in 1961 - their initial year.

[@-C.S.R]

Play that funky music white boy!

[@desertrose4946]

Craiggers! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@drpepperfan452]

Kilby was my favorite Late Night host! Top 5 and Dido obsession....classic

[@brinaldi81]

Legend

[@charleybarley914]

As much a Kilby will be welcomed inside Target Center, there's one guy Minny wants back in the building and he's twisiting in his seat wanting it too...KG back in the Target Center. Love ya Kilborn, hope theres a large tall bald head in a seat near you in Target Center.

[@dmikedibert]

Love Craig,

[@brycebirkinbine4119]

For once let a Minnesota team experience success for once

[@josephgreen2824]

I still remember when the Twins won in '87 and '91

[@rolmodel12.]

​@josephgreen2824 Franky V (well, in '87), Hrbie, and the Legend Kirby Puckett (RIP). That '91 Series was one of my favorites of all-time. Great Series and the beginning of Atlanta's legendary run of being a consistent contender.

[@andrewgondek3805]

Love the harry the hitman love

[@thesmithsmx6880]

Espresso Martinis are outstanding! Just hold the chocolate.

[@hotdangers]

Caffeine doesn’t cancel out alcohol. The espresso martini was a fad in the 90s. There are lots of Caffeine/Alcohol drinks: The Cuba Libre, Red Bull Vodka, and Jack and Coke are some of the more popular ones. The biggest impact that happens when people get super drunk and caffeinated is that it ruins the bartender and wait staff’s night with hyper drunk people who crash hard when they come down.

[@gunnysak5094]

Y’all need to be on together once a week.

[@pgavin66mpls]

upper mississippi valley nice

[@JMBvideo]

What did Craig Kilbourne do after his CBS show til now?

[@usergodcandy777]

Live the Life Gorgeous.

[@wolfcastlewolfcastle5863]

❤‍🔥

[@johnrock6480]

No smoking in the spectrum.

[@thelunatick1993]

Kind of hoping for the anti Kilborn mention of Bud Grant in his list.

[@charleshowardiv]

he should have gotten 1 game

[@lupinschocolate]

Seinfeld strokes Bill Maher. I cant with his political takes anymore.

[@Okefenokee_Nole]

Good lord, Kilby’s aged like milk left out in the sun

[@mrhollister8520]

Old Man James vigorously curses out the refs, throws elbows, makes threatening gestures towards female patrons, while Draymond commits assault towards players and RE is appalled by a heat pack. That makes sense

[@brian-ld4vd]

I never thought Jerry Seinfeld was funny. I don't know why.

[@stevenkidd6761]

He'll be at your house on Friday, at 9am: He'd like to take you for a ride and a "cup of coffee".

[@barrym2112]

Comedy is purely subjective. My brother and I love so many of the same things but other then Mel Brooks we can’t find a common ground on comedy.

[@usergodcandy777]

Different sense of humor...many don't think Craig is funny, but he's hilarious.

[@soccertots1552]

I don’t think Jerry Seinfeld is a great standup comic. His show was great though…his style of comedy is best served in a performance/staged setting with talented actors portraying every day people in scenarios that are relatable to the common man.

[@surf101-]

Never cared for Craig Kilbourne.

[@usergodcandy777]

You can't teach taste.
