Here are
the top nine
comments made by NBC sports commentators so far during the Summer
Olympics that
they would like to take back:
1. Weightlifting commentator: 'This is Gregorieva from
Bulgaria. I saw
her snatch this morning during her warm up and it was amazing.'
1. Dressage
commentator: 'This is really a lovely horse and I speak from
personal experience since I once mounted her mother.'
1. Paul
Hamm, Gymnast: 'I owe a lot to my parents, especially my
mother and
father.'
1. Boxing
Analyst: 'Sure
there have
been injuries, and even some deaths in boxing, but none of them really
that
serious.'
1. Softball
announcer: 'If
history
repeats itself, I should think we can expect the same thing again.'
1. Basketball
analyst: 'He
dribbles a lot
and the opposition doesn't like it. In fact you can see it all over
their
faces.'
1. At
the rowing medal ceremony:
'Ah,
isn't that nice, the wife of the IOC president is hugging the cox of
the
British crew.'
1. Soccer
commentator: 'Julian
Dicks
is everywhere. It's like they've got eleven Dicks on the field.'
1. Tennis
commentator: 'One
of the
reasons Andy is playing so well is that, before the final round, his
wife takes
out his balls and kisses them... Oh my God, what have I just said?'
