Life in the South

The trials and tribulations of parenthood and living away from family from a "Yankee" raising a baby in the south.

Olympic Commentators on Crack

Since we don't have cable (see previous post) we have been tuning into the Olympics lately. Again, cutting cable is NOT a good way to cut costs.

Here are some of my favorite comments from tonight's Ice Dancing:

The male commentator on a Russian couple "They just don't ooze that Latin flavor." No shit. I bet it's because they're Russian.

The female commentator "I don't like their outfits." Well, that's why you are the commentator and not the designer. Real intelligent comment there honey.

And who came up with Ice Dancing? Who really enjoys watching ballroom dancing on ice? It's almost like watching paint dry to me. Who comes up with these events? Let's take a ski hill and put massive bumps on it. Okay, now let's make them ski with the bumps and do jumps in the middle of it all. How about lugs? Who came up with that? And did a homosexual come up with team lugs? I mean what guy sits around thinking up sports where they can all lay on top of each other and go downhill really fast? Why don't they wear costumes like the ice dancers to give people more to talk about (especially commentators!). Anyways, my new sport is Ice Dancing with moguls with using your skates for the curling competition that is going on simultaneously.
