I don't have a problem with Bryant Gumbel's comments
i.e., the winter olympics look like a GOP convention, due to a lack of presence of blacks.

I really don't have a problem with it.

3. I Don't Have a Problem With it Either
For one thing I think that people need to relax a little bit and realize that it was said with some humor behind it, also isn't it true? It's not like you see a lot of African Americans at either place.

4. Lardbutt would like for Gumbel to get fired like he was at ESPN.
LOL!

that he said it. And I'm glad it upset Sean Hannity.

9. For 48 hours
he was having a fit. The more it upsets him, the truer it must be.
