In a matter of days, it has become the Gumbel brothers against the world.
Following Bryant Gumbel's comments concerning David Stern last week, in which he compared the NBA commissioner to a "modern plantation overseer," his brother, Greg, had a few choice words for former wrestling and reality TV star Hulk Hogan.
"You know, you remember two weeks ago, Hulk Hogan came out and really ripped Tim Tebow? And I was thinking to myself, I must've been out of the country when Hulk Hogan, when people cared what he thought about anything other than play-acting in a fake sport."
Gumbel was referring to Hogan's appearance on ESPN's Sportsnation, when he was asked to give a pep talk to Tim Tebow and the Broncos. Hogan ripped a Tebow jersey clean in half, and as everyone could tell watching him — except Gumbel, apparently — he was delivering the speech in jest.
Check out Hogan's motivational speech and then Greg Gumbel's jab in the videos below. A hat tip to SportsGrid for pointing out Gumbel's response.
