Real Sports With Bryant Gumble

Posted on 12/30/2005 4:21:37 AM PST by maineman

Did anyone see the episode yesterday on the soccer racists in Europe? Bryant Gumble called these 'nuts' rightwingers at least a half a dozen times. They showed black soccer players being pelted with bannanas and Gumble said these were rightwing fanatics. They showed a section of the crowd waving the Nazi flag and Gumble said they were rightwing fanatics. I emailed HBO and told them I cancelled their channel. If anyone is a racist it is Gumble, he always makes terrible comments after a segment featuring a white athlete.

I wondered where Gumble had been. If he's covering soccer for HBO he must be doing extremely well.

If anyone is a racist it is Gumble...

Of course he is.

He is also an incompetent nitwit liberal.

Why do you think he's been relegated to a cable show with limited viewership?

No network will take a chance on alienating every viewer, and G(r)umble has that effect.

We will hear less and less of him, and rightly so.

Gumbel has always been the worst of the worst. Judy Woodruff would make me angry; Gumbel would make me ill. Never has a TV personality been so openly biased and racist as Gumbel yet he still gets a new gig whenever he tires of his place or someone else tires of him. Amazing, huh?

Didn't see it. Having the words "Real" and "Gumble" in the same show is cognitive dissonance at its best.

Guess all his "experience" as a "journalist" blinded him to actual research and the discovery that (VOILAAAAAAAA . . . . . . . . . ) Europe is loaded with what are termed "soccer rowdies".

There's no race involved, just misplaced sports bias (THEIR team over the opposition)!!

A REAL "journalist" would have discovered that fact through actual research.

Gumbel, however, is just as big an idiot and racist as he has ever been.

I am confused
When did Bryant get into sports? The one that lives near me is his stupid brother, who is not quite as bad as Bryant but bad.
Now I can't remember his stupid name.
The mind is the first to go . . . . . .

I wondered where Gumble had been.

* I figured he was in Palm Beach, Florida, at The Breakers, getting married, again

. . Former NBC and CBS waker-upper Bryant Gumbel, 58, getting married to his mistress of nearly seven years, Hillary Quinlan, over the weekend at The Breakers in Palm Beach. Spies at the fancy hostelry tell me that the festivities for the former morning-show anchorman kicked on Friday eve, with a bachelor party at the popular Seafood Bar on the fancy hotel’s first floor. Among those present with Gumbel: NBC Today co-host Matt Lauer, looking as dapper as usual; Gumbel’s brother, Greg Gumbel, the CBS sportscaster; and Bryant Gumbel’s troubled son Bradley, who was released from a Manhattan cell right on time for the weekend. The younger Gumbel, 23, was held for 24 hours on suspicion that he mugged a woman, but charges weren’t filed. Top-shelf liquor flowed freely, including Chambord, Ketel and Grey Goose vodka. Then came the wedding, on Saturday afternoon. About 20 guests witnessed Gumbel take financial analyst Quinlan, 42, as his second wife on a terrace overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. The simple reception included a single piano player and a seven-course meal with lamb and seafood. Eye’s spy said here was no wedding cake, just dessert. “It was sorta boring,” said one witness

Didn't "Grumble" go through a real messy divorce when his first wife found out about his lover? I think Gumble wouldn't pay any support to his family and she (the 1st) had to sue this a$$clown for support. I hope she received a huge settlement from him, as it really couldn't happen to a better racist-pig than Gumball is.

How about those liberals in Maryland who throw Oreos at Steele? Does Gumbie, errrr Gumbal think these racists are also rightwingers?

Gumbel has GOT to be kidding about those remarks.

Has he actually bothered to look at the very roots of soccer violence in Europe? I think people forget that because soccer is the only major team sport that is popular all over Europe, the result is that fans tend to take their passion--mostly nationalistic--for their own teams to extremes that makes even the regulars of the Oakland Raiders' Black Hole and the Cleveland Browns' Dawg Pound seem positively civilized in comparison.

You're speaking of little fat-boy Bryant, the chubby cheeked little racist Sambo who vanished into the NBC toilet bowl years ago??? Oh yeah!
