Part of the humor is that they play the same "Entertainment Tonight" clip EVERY SINGLE TIME. It appears they've finally discovered the humor there. And boy, have they!
I just made a post. OH, IT LOOKS GOOD!

Oh, It Looks Goood!
Conan has been doing these "Captain America: World Police" or whatever preview skits for a while now and it's so stupid it makes me laugh every time.

John Kruk on Letterman
These old clips are amazing. In just a few decades the entire nature of being a professional athlete has undergone quite a transformation as these clips will show. John Kruk comes on Letterman and talks about baseball with wit and brutal, brutal honesty. This is an interview where political correctness, pretension and ego do not exist.
It takes Krukker about 2 minutes to get warmed up but once he does, it's comedy gold.
Would it even be possible for an athlete to say these things today? I don't think so. The media would eat them alive and leave nothing but a bloody carcass.
Slightly less funny but even more insanely forthright is this interview. Going in reverse chronological order, this one's from 1992:
There's no one like this any more.

It's "Video Game Week" on "Late Night" which means that every night they have a demo or an early look at some eagerly anticipated video game. I really couldn't give a bit. I'm so out of touch; all the giant video game franchises are just names to me, I don't know what any of it is about.
But to mark the occasion they've created a special 8-bit opening which is awesome:
Now that's a TKO from Tokyo.
