    He has always impressed me as someone who loved to hear himself talk. Always strikes me as being extremely arrogant.

    After his racist, close-minded, nation-centric and just plain UNINTELLIGENT comments about the Winter Olympics, I've lost what little respect I had for him.

    You know, his brother does a great job with the NCAA Tournament. He's down to earth, knows his stuff, and has become extremely successful in the sports world. I'm afraid I can only say the opposite for Bryant.

    What can I say? Virtually every review on here has said it all! He's an elitist black man who thinks the world of himself. I'm telling you, it's really something when you meet these people in person. They have ceased to become black, but rather a race that presumes to be better, but still kept down by the whites. Absolute jokers, go to an Ivy or high ranked university if you want to meet punks like these.

    He's a pompous jerk. Divorced his wife to chase a younger skirt. I wouldn't have had him on buttered toast. He is a highly opinionated newsman with an equally inflated opinion of himself.

    A black racist,through and through. Every morning show that he's hosted,he has ruined,because,he brings his hate agenda on the shows(DELIBERATELY),always leading to the ratings sinking, because the White viewers rcatch on,and rightfully tune out eventually. Keep this poisonous racist off TV, and every other form of media,as long as the hater lives.

    Why is this person on television? His arrogant, supercilious personality is NOT meant for TV. He's not the kind of person you want to listen to or watch, any time of day or night!

    I was glad to see him leave the Today Show, and then CBS hired him for their morning show. CBS couldn't figure out that there is a difference between being well known and being well liked. Gumball is not well liked.

    Absolutely talentless, obnoxious and self-impressed and one has to wonder why, considering that his career has been in the terlet since he left NBC. A total bust for CBS, which paid bigtime money for this clown. Self-hating black man preppie wannabe who can't keep his hands off white women and who reminded his viewers virtually every time he was on camera that he went to Bates College. Well, that was a really long time ago, and Bates isn't Williams or Dartmouth or even Swarthmore. So who cares? Are we supposed to be impressed? Want ratings to go down during a certain time slot? Give this twerp a show in that hour and your viewership will go down into the single digits. And to think that they gave him this week-long send-off when he left Today, like his departure was some great loss, some great story, like some Nobel laureate died or something. Enough to make you puke.

    I absolutely despised this man on the Today Show...was never so happy to see someone go. He is so full of himself and just seems like a miserable person. It wouldn't be so bad if he was good at what he did...but he isn't. Not cool at all!

    What was CBS thinking when they gave him a morning show? Had they not noticed that the viewing public can't stand this jerk? Have you ever met a Bryant Gumbel fan? His brother is fine. He's the pits. Don't be shocked if you never see him on TV again.

    I cannot stand this arrogant, self-serving jerk. Just the sound of his voice alone is annoying as hell! It's nasaly and whiny and grates on the ears. How he doesn't keep from getting beaten up is beyond me. He teases and prods people in interviews by always saying smugly, "Oh, come on!" It's amazing he's been around as long as he has and that his co-anchors and co-hosts haven't killed him yet! If someone was to write a tell-all book about this creep, it would be thicker than a dictionary AND encyclopedia set combined!!!

    Doesn't belong in a role reporting on anything but his opinion, which he gets confused with the facts.

    Over paid, self-obsorbed, wanta-be white boy, self-rightous, thinks he is better than everyone else. Since 9-11 however I have seen a difference in his attitude and find him to be softer to watch.

    Is there anyone worse in the "news" business? He's arrogant, self-righteous, bleeding heart, single minded and only around because of the color of his skin.
