Latest hindi commentary gems..

The Olympics has brought back some well known voices and also a lot of unintended entertainment :) The guy I was entertained by the most was probably Jasdev Singh, who is a recepient of the Padma Shri according to this article. Padma Shri be damned, here are the gems:

1) The long jump is on and me and Megha are watching keenly since Anju Bobby George was participating. A certain Yelena * from Kazhakistan is warming up for her jump...commentator describes it thus..

Yelena..(pause)..Kajakistan ki ..(pause)..apane muscles ko.....(looong pause)....heelaate hue...

This in that oh so familiar voice of his was just too hilarious :)

2) This one is from a hockey match between India and some team X

aur ye X ke khiladi ball ko aage le jaate hue..lekin ye unke saamne Dileep Tirkey...deewar ki tarah...(pause)..sach much bohot hi majboot deewar hai Bharat ki, Dileep Tirkey..

I really recommend you to watch a recording sometime on DD sports if you get a chance so that you can hear it verbatim :)
