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

1. Weightlifting commentator: "This is Gregoriava 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?"

The ball one was classic.

That would either be very good, or very bad.

I second the "MORE BITCH MORE!!!"

"Serena Williams handles balls quite nicely."

"Yes Bill, her Dad taught both her and her sister at a young age. He'd bring all of the neighborhood in to teach these young girls on the ettique on how to control their stroke."

Bill: O.O; "I gotta go to the bathroom."

Other than the one about OBGYNs, I think they're better.

Write it down, or you won't remember them in two weeks.

No no, it leaves it open for someone to repost them a couple of months later and have my laugh at them all over again.
