Here are the top nine comments [oops] made by sports commentators during the Olympics...

1. Weightlifting commentator: 'This is Gregorieva from Bulgaria. I saw her snatch this morning during her warm up and it was amazing.':oops:

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

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

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

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

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

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.':oops:

8. Soccer commentator: 'Julian Dicks is everywhere. It's like they've got eleven Dicks on the field.':oops:

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?':oops:

From the husband (to his fat wife) headed to the Female Beach Volleyball finals:

"Wait in the car, the beach is sandy"

Johnny Carson was the tennis commentator? I did not know that.

It's kind of odd living in (or near) an era where things were so revolutionary historically (first live television shows for example) and yet no copies remain or were ever made. Yet so quickly we have moved on to a world where it seems everything is now "retained" forever.

I'm looking forward to the winter olympics!

Yes, I've heard Brother ID's # 9 comment (without going to Snopes, wasn't it Arnold Palmer's wife?) but it's a common thing I should think for a spouse to do and a common heat-of-the moment thing for a commentator to say. Sign me, "Wet Blanket".
