Here are the top nine comments made by NBC sports commentators so
far during the Olympics that they would like to take back:
.........
1. Weight-lifting commentator: 'This is Gregorieva 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?'
