Cynthia Potter Redux

How could I have missed this beautiful exchange:

Robinson, commenting about the imposing look of a Russian diver who had shaved his head: "I feel like I’ve seen this guy in a James Bond movie."

Potter: "I think I’ve seen him in some other kinds of movies."

Robinson, stunned into awkward silence: "  …  "

Potter, as replay of the Russian’s dive rolls: "Those other movies were about violence, not anything else."

Maybe this woman is a credit to her profession, and maybe diving fans love her, but oh-my-God, she needs some help with her color commentary ….
