    So I'm checking the channel guide on Fios and I see "Studio 42 with Bob Costas". Well my brain does it's thing and translates "Bob Costas" into what that term means on this board.

    I lol'd pretty hard.

    Thanks GRM. Thanks a lot. I think I'm now fully assimilated.

    i do the same whenever i see "E36 M3", i must thank the GRM Gods...

    Oh, in my spare time, i parooze Urban Dictionary, found a good Word and Definition:

    Costasize : The watering-down of sports broadcasts with human interest crap. Named for Bob Costas, the NBC sportscaster who has singlehandedly reduced the sports content of US Olympic broadcasts by 50%. "I wanted to watch some downhill skiing, but they Costasized the whole thing and only showed two skiers."

    I often pass by a Berkeley Road exit on I5 that makes me chuckle.

    Bwahaha saw something similar the other day, with BOB COSTAS in big print on the TV at work. I really had to keep the lulz suppressed.

    Wait, I know all the other filters (E36 M3, Berkely, etc) but I son't know what is filtered for Bob Costas, though I have seen it.

    Wat is the Filtered word?

    And so you understand how my mind works:

    M3 = Regular / Standard size

    M5 = Larger

    M6 = Supper size

    I just can not look at a BMW the same way any more. LOL

    Respectfully, Dean

    I prefer NOT to use the term "supper" when talking about E36 M3. But that's just me.

    E36 M3, it's what's for dinner?

    Yes, the real Bob Costas and not his feline counterpart.

    Let's get this straight:

    sphincter and dick are OK, but Bob Costas is not.

    edit: Yep, the filter works............

    "Dick" was banned from another forum I used to frequent, and then un-banned. Though I never got it, I never questioned it, either.
