Mr. Gumbel - who evidently spends way too much time thinking about skin color - has shown himself again to be the ignorant racist he is by erroneously deriding the GOP for what he perceives as a "paucity of blacks."

Please contact HBO at http://www.hbo.com/apps/submitinfo/contactus/submit.do?title=Real%20Sports&questiontype=realsports to let them know what you think about this.

What a pathetic, little man. His only good role was on Family Guy.

Is this for REAL? This is disgusting.

Remember what they did to RUSH over the McNabb remark.

I will contact HBO.

He's just over compensating for his lack of black mannerisms.

He is trying to make up for all of the years of ribbing he's taken from black comedians.

I hope Mr. G has given up his bad habit of playing golf at exclusive country clubs that lack racial diversity in proportions reflective of the general population so that he may remain a pure and undefiled example of righteousness to our poor world.

And didn't Bryant divorce his black wife to marry a white woman?

Bryant Gumbel was so full of himself on "Today"...I think that's when I gave up watching any of the morning shows.

So Bryant is saying that blacks are the worlds greatest athletes,that whites simply can't compete with blacks in athletics, and that if you aren't black, you can't be the worlds greatest athlete.

I'm still trying to decide why you need separate men's and women's teams for Curling? If there ever was a sport where you'd think the sexes could compete equally, it would have to be one where you slide rocks on ice.

Rush Limbaugh doesn't like curling, although he did say that it was nice to see women using brooms again.

So, Bryant, let's take a peek at HBO's biggest shows. Sopranos are not exactly paragons of diversity. Deadwood, #%*#& &$%#% right again. Taxicab Confessions, maybe? Some other shows may have a couple minortities. And gee, isn't the latest lady in your life a white? Dang, Gumby-boy, you have been infected!

Yea Bryant, just ignore the fact that Blacks have reached the highest positions of REAL responsibility in this GOP administration. OBTW, I'm a black man who skis, so there's nothing to prevent black people from coaching their children to Olympic level capability in the next few years.

Reminding us once again why Gumball is so despised by just about everyone.

Some people just can't resist another 2 minutes of being on the stage.

Well, like it matters anyway.. have to listen to the American fru fru figure skater trying to pretend he's some poofer bad ass and going to stick it to the red state republicans.... Of course he got his well worn rectum handed to him by the Russian anyway....

Or have another supposed "bad ass" talk his jackass game, only to watch him get DQ'd for missing a gate.

Hey guys, if you truly are as rebel and tough and all that other crap as you want to pretend you are... shut your damn mouth and let your actions speak for you... of course if you did that... you might actually win.

Trash talk <> Gold Medal... dumbasses.

Well you have the Jamaican bobsled team, some figure skaters...so give kids from Chicago ski passes. Open a curling rink in Philadelphia. Invent a winter sport kids from low income families can get into. Like hickey bobbing on the back of cars. Go down the bobsled chute on Converse sneakers. Slush volleyball. There has got to be a way to make him happy.

...despite a paucity of Blacks that makes the Winter Games look like a GOP convention Howard Dean's gubernatorial cabinet.”

That works.

Yeah, and I guess we can't look up to Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant, because of the paucity of white faces in the NBA.

But setting that aside - Bryant Gumbel suddenly "going black" after all these years reminds me of OJ suddenly remembering his roots after he got arrested, or Michael Jackson suddenly getting chummy with the Nation of Islam when he was up on charges.

From what I've heard, blacks just can't take the cold. It interferes with their concentration.

Wow I didn't know the Olympics banned Blacks...

Anyways, what makes him think Blacks are naturally better athletes?

Blacks (those with origins in western Africa) may be able to run faster for shorter lengths, but that isn't everything in Athletics.

The most hateful man on television, and he has been so for at least 20 years.
