My favorite is watching local sports guys throw out (Chappelle white stiff guy voice here) "Well, he's really a spectacular young man... so articulate."

I'd love to see one of these players interviewed by the same sports guy at a later date say something like "Well, how do, missa Jones... shine a shoe fo' you? How bout some soft shoe?"
