Conan O'Brien Plays for the 1864 Wabash Mashers

Comedy gold ensues at about 4:30 http://deadspin.com/sports/baseball/this-ones-for-the-cranks-and-birds-232015.php

 

Conan rules. This is yet another example of why he is the funniest man on late-night TV. I hope he's allowed to get away with this great stuff when he replaces Leno. Thanks for the link.

 

D_B getting props for a link...this must be a first

 

'Some say a waste of time, others say an incredible waste of time."

 

Conan is funnier than Letterman, and maybe 20 times funnier than Leno. Eagerly looking forward to him taking over at 11:30. Craig Ferguson still has medicore days funnier than Leno dreams of.

 

And a last...
D_B is like genital herpes, sits dormant for a while, then suddenly starts 4-5 worthless topics.

 

For fuck's sake.

This is at least two years old, maybe more.

Even when d_b posts something from two days ago he pulls a d_b.

 

Along with his turn-of-the-(20th) century boxing piece, I would say that Conan is best in period pieces...

 

This made my day.

 

I've been to Old Bethpage, both as a kid and as an adult. It's not as I remembered as a child, but the highlight of the day, other than watching the poorly played baseball, was seeing a huge pig (a boar?) with the largest testicles I've ever seen on any living thing.

 

Sounds like the highlight of ANY day...

 

I heard Letterman's moving to CBS and being replaced by some no-name comedy writer. The guy doesn't even have any experience in front of the camera.
