"Counting the late night role that I had in Seoul in 1988, I did a dozen Olympics," says Costas. "And I’d like to think that my colleagues and I did a number of very worthwhile things. But I know that because this was so front and center, it’s probably the thing that people are going to remember the most. No one’s going to sit down and review hundreds of hours of tapes and go, 'You know, that was really a good thing he did with Michael Phelps.'"
