Tiger in Spain 0 Posted December 5, 2003 Share Posted December 5, 2003 Here are the top ten actual comments made by sports commentators on the air that they would like to take back: 1. Weightlifting commentator at the Olympic Snatch and Jerk Event: "This is Gregoriava from Bulgaria. I saw her snatch this morning during her warm up and it was amazing." 2. Ted Walsh - Horse Racing Commentator: "This is really a lovely horse and I speak from personal experience since I once mounted her mother." 3. Grand Prix Race Announcer: "The lead car is absolutely, truly unique, except for the one behind it which is exactly identical to the one in front of the similar one in back." 4. Greg Norman, Pro Golfer: "I owe a lot to my parents, especially my mother and father." 5. Ringside Boxing Analyst: "Sure there have been injuries and even some deaths in boxing but none of them really that serious." 6. Baseball announcer: "If history repeats itself, I should think we can expect the same thing again." 7. Basketball analyst: "He dribbles a lot and the opposition doesn't like it. In fact you can see it all over their faces." 8. At a trophy ceremony BBC TV Boat Race 1988: "Ah, isn't that nice, the wife of the Cambridge president is hugging the cox of the Oxford crew." 9. Metro Radio, College Football: "Julian Dicks is everywhere. It's like they've got eleven Dicks on the field." 10. US Open TV Commentator: "One of the reasons Arnie Palmer is playing so well is that, before each final round, his wife takes out his balls and kisses them. Oh my God, what have I just said."

Jenny AU-92 0 Posted December 5, 2003 Share Posted December 5, 2003 At the MLB All-Star game two years ago, during the home run derby, they were interviewing Sammy Sosa. Jason Giambi was sitting at the media table with Chris Berman, with an open mike, and while the camera was on Sammy, you could hear Giambi in the background saying "Besa-ball been berry berry good to me..." and Berman going "SHUT UP!" and the mike falling over. It was HYSTERICAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I never heard anything about it in the media, but I heard it myself when it happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCTAU 3,350 Posted December 5, 2003 Share Posted December 5, 2003 9. Metro Radio, College Football: "Julian Dicks is everywhere. It's like they've got eleven Dicks on the field." Except in some very rare cases where it might be the field goal team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDM4AU 336 Posted December 5, 2003 Share Posted December 5, 2003 From 1996: Brinkley: "I wish to say that we all look forward with great pleasure to four years of wonderful, inspiring speeches full of wit, poetry, music, love and affection. More go****n nonsense." Peter Jennings: "You can't say that on the air, Mr. Brinkley." Brinkley: "Well, I'm not on the air." Jennings: "David, we are on the air." Brinkley: "Too bad. I told you I was leaving." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
