Why I Don't Like Bryant Gumbel

Because I don’t trust him.

Why don’t I trust him?

Because every single time on every single airing of “Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel” at the end of every single pre-taped segment he is scribbling away just prior to looking up to the reporter just featured who now awaits Bryant’s follow-up questions.

What could he possibly be writing!!? And why does he stop exactly 1.8 seconds after they cut to him? Sorry, but it reeks of a feigned casualness by someone who is clueless as to how it appears to an attentive viewer who sees it done time after time after time after time after time after time after time after time. May I call it “pretentiousness?” without giving offence? Why it would be an honor.

Oh! And I’ve caught him cheating at my Wednesday night poker games.
