My kind of Christmas Tree 🙂

Got a spare 10 minutes and 47 seconds?  I thought this was very funny – so did over 66,482,738 other people…..

Here are the top nine comments made by NBC sports commentators during the Olympics that they would like to take back:

1. Weightlifting 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?’

I was watching diving at the Olympics the other day, saw this old cartoon from the rut almost straight after and thought the timing was impeccable!

Interesting to see that ESPN are up to their old tricks again!  I saw the medal tables and it rang a bell 🙂

BBC’s medal table has the US in third

…and ESPN’s have them in first!

It certainly seemed like this when I was fourteen (and thirty) 🙂

From xkcd

It’ll confuse a lot of people…. 🙂 Very funny though!
