Sochi Olympics 2014: Why is Bob Costas wearing those ridiculous glasses?
We first saw the eyewear when Bob Costas jokingly sparred with Matt Lauer on 'The Today Show' on Thursday morning as the two teased to that night's coverage, but Costas never gave a reason for the spectacles.
Then, during his appearance later on NBC's Olympic telecast, viewers were given the explanation: Costas has some form of Russian pink eye.
'Bear with me for a moment as I spare my friends in the press office countless inquiries. I have no choice (but) to go all Peabody and Sherman on you for the next couple of nights since I woke up this morning with my left eye swollen shut and just about as red as the old Soviet flag. According to the NBC doctors here, it's some kind of minor infection which should resolve itself by the weekend. If only all my issues would resolve themselves that quickly, but that's another story.'
