About: "Craig Kilborn has taken a personal vow to make his show the top-rated late night program on any network sometime toward the end of February Sweeps during the 2012-2013 television season. In the interim, he is totally committed to making the show "significantly above average."

Kilborn, of course, is no stranger to outrageous promises. As a child, he regularly told his parents he would earn straight A's on his report card. In 12 years, he managed one - thanks to his recitation on good grooming ( Magenta and You: Think About It ), which later served as the basis for his senior thesis.

At college, he pledged to lead the Montana State University Bobcats basketball team to the NCAA Sweet Sixteen. Although the team finished fourth in the Big Sky Conference, Kilborn did lead the league in turnovers - despite limited playing time resulting from a nagging groin pull.

As a radio and television play-by-play commentator for the Savannah Spirits of the Continental Basketball Association, he told fans of the much-traveled franchise that, this time, the team "was in town to stay." The Spirits, and Kilborn, were history by March 15. Later, as sports director for KCBA-TV in Monterey, Calif., he informed viewers that Mark McGwire confided to him he "would always wear Athletic green and yellow." Some guys just can't be trusted.

As host of ESPN's popular early morning SportsCenter , Kilborn said it "would take a case of Macallan 25 and a box of Macanudos" for him to cohost with "highlight hogging" Keith Olbermann. Actually, all it took was one Boston Market dinner with an extra side of slaw - and the threat of yet another suspension.

While with Comedy Central, Kilborn avowed that he would never leave as host and major creative source for the network's hit, The Daily Show , until he was heading up a network late-night show.

Hey, there's always a first time."
