What a Dick or Button on Skating

I'm not a huge fan of figure skating, but I'm getting a huge kick out of listening to the commentary of Dick Button. Dude is just brutal. He's the Bill Walton of the ice rink - got almost nothing nice to say about anything or anybody. It's hillarious. Just a minute ago (delayed here on the west coast god knows how many hours) Tracy Wilson was commenting on a Ukranian skater who was performing in her 4th Olympic games and saying that you have to love to practice everyday to be that committed. Button chimes in saying he's seen her skate for all those years and she hasn't changed at all. You'd think with all that practice she'd learn something. Then he punctuated it by saying I hope I'm not being unkind. Unkind? Unkind? You're not unkind. You're a Dick!
