Bryant Gumbel Gumbel -- while covering the Winter Olympics on HBO's Real Sports -- said, ``Laugh when someone says these are the world's greatest athletes, despite a paucity of blacks that make the Winter Games look like a GOP convention.''
Gumble later supported his racial commentary on the Winter Games, according to the MIAMI HERALD. At Dan Marino's charity event this week, Gumbel defended his comments. ``People don't understand the English language. [My point is] it's really hard to collect a bunch of Winter Olympic athletes and say these are the world's greatest athletes. Period.''
:shock:
Gumble is trying to backtrack after taking heat for his RACIST and Politically Biased comment - PERIOD, DOT!
Can you imagine a white person saying such a thing about people of color?! There would be widespread rioting and demand for his job, not to mention his HEAD!
His comments were racially inflamatory, un-excuseable, and just flat out wrong!
