In a shocking development on NBC’s Sunday Night Football, player-turned-commentator Tiki Barber ate his own tongue.
When Chris Collinsworth asked the ex-Giants running back what his thoughts were about the game, Tiki replied, “Wah-wah-wah-uh, wah-wah, uh-wah.”
Producers immediately cut to a commercial while they examined Barber’s mouth and indeed discovered an empty hole.
In a related story, it has been reported that Barber visited a gynecologist recently and placed his head in the stirrups. When the doctor asked what he was doing, Tiki opened as wide as he could and pointed to the speculum in the doctor’s hand.
“I wasn’t sure what he was trying to tell me,” said the doctor, who asked to remain anonymous. “I’m not sure I’ve ever treated a vaginal disease like that before. Disgusting.”
NBC execs are considering whether to continue Barber’s contract after the current NFL season has ended.
“It’s not very attractive,” said one Fox producer. “But it’s possible we could use him on the sideline beside Tony Siragusa for brief cutaways.”
“Anyone looks good beside Siragusa,” the producer added, “even a guy who opens his mouth and doesn’t say anything.”
