Bryant Gumbel Needs To Be Repeatedly Punched 'Til He Goes Away


Hello. I was flipping channels tonight and was sucked into an interesting story about the 1970's Pittsburgh Pirates and their cocaine-running mascot, the Parrot. I was fascinated with baseball's first drug scandal, and the fact that the Parrot was doing most of the running and the pitcher was doing most of the snorting. Pittsburgh Pirates' Rod Scurry wasn't the only pitcher to love the drugs; here's an amazing story about Dock Ellis and his LSD no hitter! And those Pirate baseball hats? Hilarious! They look like Long Island Railroad hats! "Tickets, please!"

The only problem is that it was Bryant Gumbel doing the story, as it was his show, Real Sports.

His problem? He is unbelievably annoying. Always was. Always will be. Why did he not get fired for saying shit about the NFL?
His older brother Greg Gumbel? The one with the afro who gave into his weight problem and comments on football games? I like him. He's the good Gumbel.

greg. the good gumbel.


Greg's not the one looking at you like you're an asshole, talking to you like you're an asshole. The disposition is all very G.W. Bush-like without the retardation and more snippy with Bryant. In a nutshell, he thinks he's so great. He looks like a guy who is not fun to be with, a guy who you'd cringe to play Scrabble with, and totally friggin' smug. Blecccchhh. Bleechhh, I say!

bryant. the bad gumbel

Have you ever seen Gene Upshaw? He may be older and retired from football for a while but he was still an Oakland Raider, where a tendency toward felonious assault is viewed as a postive character trait. Stay away from dark alleys, Bryant. Or,better still, don't.

How can he look at you like that when he looks like a bad computer-aged version of himself?
Or maybe it's because I have successfully avoided looking at him for 10-15 years.

Today is Bryant Gumble's 58th birthday. Must be time to clean the litterbox.
