I can’t believe we’re losing this show. No one else is doing this kind of sports journalism.

[@robertsterner2145]

Great show. Along with Outside the Lines, it's defined the finest in sports journalism for a generation.

[@mjcruiser4238]

My wife basically does not watch sports -once in a while she might watch a little golf or tennis. Many times she became engrossed in Real Sports -thanks Bryant

[@michaelv401]

I'll miss this show. This and the Sports Reporters were my favorite sports shows.

[@joevolpe512]

Believe it or not. I was interviewed by Mary Carillo for a segment of Real Sports regarding a patient of mine. All of which was on the cutting room floor by broadcast. 😂😂. An hour of interviewing that was done very professionally by professionals. Congratulations to a great run.

[@vasquezalfred]

Mr. Gumbel is one super class human being!! He’s just awesome!! Amen Mr. Gumbel!!

[@lynnerose7891]

Bryant is one of the best ever!! 🎉❤

[@colbydobbs6399]

Bryant would be an excellent addition on 60 Minutes.

[@LiverpoolFan74]

Bryant Gumbel= LEGEND!!!

[@3321far]

Bryant Gumble did such a good job with the NFL pre and post game shows. I was so mad, at the the time, when he left for the Today show. I hope he enjoys his retirement. Maybe Bomani Jones can take it over?

[@kevincassidy1789]

Awesome conversation.

[@haakons8669]

I will miss his show dearly! Won a bunch of awards but still never got the credit it deserved IMO

[@ThePwig]

congrats on ending a great show. I hope it stays on HBO/Max after it's done

[@zachbackar5389]

He is an American Treasure.

[@52mrbryant]

CLASS PERSONIFIED!

[@MrBezl]

RIP to a goat. We’re gonna miss you. Real Sports

[@AdamJBrier]

Big fan. 🎉🎉

[@mohamudmusse250]

Bryant gumbel he is Legend

[@morrellcrowell8117]

Real Sports was the best show

[@Zero_Da_Hero]

Bryant’s story on the Marlins and how the team got Florida to pay for that stadium stands out.

[@jeangriffith8017]

If his name wasn't on the credits I would never have recognized Bryant Gumbel. GEEZ the guy doesn't look like the same guy who did the news on the Today's Show.

[@larrymarshall8900]

He's old that's why he looks different can't believe he's 75 years old

[@wgriffin3460]

Bryant Gumbel should be on currency.

[@FIFODavid]

A great prophicizer once said, white people love Wayne Brady because he makes Bryant Gumbel look like Malcolm X

[@larrymarshall8900]

Paul Mooney said that about Wayne Brady on Chappelle's Show in 2004.

[@Biz613]

This was a REAL show. Every sports debate show today is absolute trash 🗑️

[@KeithWickliffe79]

Just a House Ninja

[@TheRedStateBlue]

Bryant Gumbel and Bob Costas are almost completely responsible for me not watching NBC sports for most of my life.

[@timfleming3083]

Both are very pretentious phonies.

[@TheRedStateBlue]

@@timfleming3083 NBC sports, since Bob Costas has been in charge of it has been... "Let's take a break from the live competition you've been watching to show you this 7 minute long mini-documentary about this obscure athlete from this nowhere country that had to overcome some abstract adversity in order to be here and not place on the podium, tomorrow..." NBC sports coverage sucks.

[@DemocracyFirst2025]

Rich doesn’t know his fkn name? It’s BryanT.

[@stevengraham3138]

He’s 75 worth millions my question is should successful people retire and give young people a chance to work who are raising families don’t need a 80 year old Chris collinsworth or 75 year old

[@jonathanbates8326]

You make a great point but there are so many shitty people in that business that people like Bryant truly are priceless.

[@thecommish80]

Real Sports: ruining everything u like about sports for 30 years. Good riddance.

[@amdtexas9383]

I'm not going to miss this overly political hack at all.
