Gumbel is a moron. I have a vague recollection of Gumbel hosting the Olympic coverage during the Seoul Olympics in 1988. He had a Korean tailor brought on camera during the show so Gumbel could hassle him over some suits Gumble ordered but that were not yet delivered. Gumble even pulled out a wad of cash like the stereotypical ugly American. The media did not pick up on that either.

So what do the Summer Games look like? An NAACP Convention?

Just another reason to NOT watch the Olympics or NBC. Can you imagine some white guy saying something about the NBA. Gumbo is a racist ass.

What about the Jamaican Bobsled Team.

Imagine if a white guy said watching an NBA game was like watching a rap concert.

Gumbel is pure racist with those comments.
He is the epitome of a MSM prima donna. Imagine what kind of a rectum he is in real life if even a TV network dropped him.

What a class act. Not only does he trash the Olympics, he drags politics into sports with a racial comment.
He may be a moron, bot someone is paying him big money to say these things publicly.
Any small advance of the agenda is worth the cost, I guess.

Then the irrational, obese and sour Bryant Gumbel, who apparently feels that he should see people just like him where ever he goes in the world, should go out and recruit black athletes for winter sports, if their absence bothers him so. No one is forcing anyone to stay out, or forcing anyone to participate for that matter ... at least among the western Democracies at least.

Gumbel strapped down to a luge and tossed over the side would be an olympic event I'd pay to see!

I can sort of agree with him on the slam on figure skating, but of course it applies equally to the gymnastics that rule the summer games. And the rest is just stupid.

He's kinda niggardly with his praise of the Republicans.

Bet I could sprint/run better than Bryant could skate.
I'd pay to see that pompous bastard on ice skates. I'd teach him some manners.
