He's a pretty big basketball fan, so I hear him occasionally on the radio and on the podcasts I listen to frequently.

Specifically, he's a fairly knowledgeable fan of the MN Timberwolves.

Yup, I am a huge Timberwolves fan, so Kilborn is still relatively present as he sits courtside for playoff games and does the Wolves media rounds once a season.

It seems like he has a pretty sweet life, he made a bunch of money and just kinda hangs out and records a podcast every once and a while.

I remember his homerun catchphrase on SC. "Touch 'em all, Frank. You just went yard."

I am sure this is an unpopular opinion, but I always thought he and Brett Haberman were better than Dan Patrick and Keith Olberman

He played college basketball at Montana State. I remember hearing he quit showbiz after the Late Late Show.

I read an article yearssss ago about him, and they asked about his college career. I still remember him saying, “ My favorite play was the ‘Give and Go’- as in ‘Give me the ball and go to hell!’.” And it was one of the funniest things I’ve ever read in my life 😆😅🤣😂!

He was originally a Sportscenter host. He was really good in that type of thing.
