Funny

Here are the top nine comments made by NBC sports commentators during
the Summer Olympics that they would like to take back:


1. Weightlifting commentator: “This is Gregoriava from Bulgaria. I saw
her snatch this morning during her warm up and it was amazing.”

2. Dressage commentator: “This is really a lovely horse and I speak
from personal experience since I once mounted her mother.”

3. Paul Hamm, Gymnast: “I owe a lot to my parents, especially my
mother and father.”

4. Boxing Analyst: “Sure there have been injuries, and even some
deaths in boxing, but none of them really that serious.”

5. Softball announcer: “If history repeats itself, I should think we
can expect the same thing again.”

6. Basketball analyst: “He dribbles a lot and the opposition doesn’t
like it. In fact you can see it all over their faces.”

7. At the rowing medal ceremony: “Ah, isn’t that nice, the wife of the
IOC president is hugging the cox of the British crew.”

8. Soccer commentator: “Julian Dicks is everywhere. It’s like
  they’ve got eleven Dicks on the field.”

9. 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?”

About the only thing that one should take seriously on this forum is to enjoy interacting with others.  Educating them or being educated by them, may happen, but better for that goal to go to school. It is also useful to be able to laugh at oneself as readily as at others.

Letting the door hit you on the ass on the way out, Dennis?  Recidivist.  If you dig deep into your profession training you’ll find that you need us.

Never!  Never, I say!  I can stop anytime I want to!  Well, just maybe one more small one….

I’m sure they must have had a chuckle too, after they pulled their foot out of their mouths.
Very Funny!
