I'm enjoying Snoop's participation in the Olympics.

I'm his age-and if you had told me 30 years ago that Snoop would be at the Olympics watching dressage with Martha Stewart, and Flavor Flav would be sponsoring the women's water polo team... I would have thought you were really high LOL! Didn't have this on my bingo card (but it's fun!)

This is it. Most dcumers have never run anything in their lives except their mouths. Snoop is there because he has broad appeal across demographics which translates into ratings.Recently,he's appeared in commercials for Corona beer, Tostitos (with martha stewart), he's in the olympics, he's going to be on the voice. None of this would be possible if marketers did not have proof of his appeal.


If you have contempt for DCUMs and are so much smarter than them why are you here?


You call it contempt, i call it low tolerance for ignorance.Besides, once you publish something on the internet, be prepared to have a reaction which could come in the form of a rebuttal or confirmation.Hope it helps.


Insults come from contempt so yeah contempt is it. The people here have something you don't have and you need to take them down a notch to make yourself feel better. They have houses, money, husbands...

Yes, we at DCUM need Gen Z to educate us. We know nothing about what Gen Z like and how they are to be catered to, because that is really important.

NP. I also didn't get the appeal of Snoop either, but there was an entertaining article about him in the WSJ today. Gift link:

Serious question though: Why NOT Snoop?

The man is a treasure!

This is certainly not the only reason he’s at the Olympics.

I'm so tired of the celebrity watch every night. They can spend more time on sports we never see than showing celebrity people who have no idea what's going on.

This is the element people are missing. I feel like the people questioning his involvement haven't been paying a lot of attention to pop culture in the last few years. Snoop got invited because of his hilarious viral videos doing sports commentary. He and Martha Stewart have had a whole thing together on social media for years. They are very funny together.


+1 So many more Olympians are bringing flair, color and their cultures. It's no longer the staid, gentrified event of the past. Why shouldn't commentators reflect that?

In every clip, athletes are thrilled when they spot Snoop. They don’t seem to be questioning why he's there. He's been gracious, supportive, appreciative and totally cool. Wish I could hang with him!

Well, those are the clips they show. Plus, of course, the athletes know it is being filmed.

Don’t be so extremely naive.


You think media would give time to an athlete questioning why Snoop was there? You think all those athletes, knowing their every move is filmed, are faking the smiles and engagement with Snoop?

I have to wonder what happened to you to make you so warped, cynical and bitter.


You are really really invested in this...does your livelihood depend on NBC's coverage somehow?
