During coverage of the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin on HBO's Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel he made the following remarks,
"Finally, tonight, the Winter Games. Count me among those who dont like them and wont watch them ... Because theyre so trying, maybe over the next three weeks we should all try too. Like, try not to be incredulous when someone attempts to link these games to those of the ancient Greeks who never heard of skating or skiing. So try not to laugh when someone says these are the worlds greatest athletes, despite a paucity of blacks that makes the Winter Games look like a GOP convention. Try not to point out that somethings not really a sport if a pseudo-athlete waits in whats called a kiss-and-cry area, while some panel of subjective judges decides who won ... So if only to hasten the arrival of the day theyre done, when we can move on to March Madness for Gods sake, let the games begin."[1]
There is also a "paucity of blacks" in Gumble's taste in women.

Whenever I hear or see anything about Gumbel, I think of the Chappele Show's Negrodamus skit where he says "Wayne Bradey makes Bryant Gumbel look like Malcom X".
Direct hit!
