Bob Costas Quotes Ludacris on Live TV; Hilarity Ensues

Bob Costas is such a baller. The legendary sportscaster appeared on MLBTV Tuesday evening and was faced with an important question: Who's your favorite rapper?

Lesser middle-aged white men may have stumbled here, stuttering and stammering while trying to spit out the first name that came to mind. But not Costas. He handled the situation like the bona fide professional he is.

"I have got to give props to Ludacris," Costas explains. "Because, although he's not the only one, I think he was the first one to name-check me."

Costas then goes on the quote the following lyric from Luda's "Hip Hop Quotables" song:

Now I roll up torpedoes, get blunted with rastas

For a hefty fee, I'm on your record like Bob Costas

Anyway, that's the rundown, but words do Costas' genius no justice -- so just watch the video above, then give props of your own in the comments below.
