Bob Costas or Buck Laughlin?

I watched the Opening Ceremony from the Olympics last night, and it might just be me, but the banter between Bob Costas, Matt Lauer, and “China expert” Josh Ramo reminded me of the ridiculous comments made by Fred Willard in Best in Show. I didn’t know that watching some of the most intricately choreographed stage performances in the history of ever and one of the largest fireworks displays in recent memory needed a play-by-play.

The highlight of the night was, however, Costas’s comment that “Swaziland is like the Switzerland of Africa, and not necessarily just because of the similarity of the names…”
