Thanks to AT&T and a few select former athletes, sports fans get a chance to see how some of the world's greatest athletes live on a day-to-day basis. As an example, Deion Sanders spent time with gold medal-winning gymnast Nastia Liukin a few years ago and Youtube has the authentic documentation.
The video is as creepy as it is uninentionally hilarious.
Let us count the ways.
0:30 -- It's 7:00 AM and Deion Sanders is at the front door. Mr. Liukin answers to a grown man saying "I'm here to see your daughter."
Let's look at this from a non-gestalt perspective: black man shows up at dawn to take strict white man's daughter out for the day. Okay.
0:50 -- "Love the decor, the wood ... it's nice."
Deion is really into interior decorating.
0:58 -- "I really just want to spend a day in the life with Nastia, you know, see how she does it."
1:15 -- "Hey Deion, I'm Nastia. Nice to meet you."
"How you doing Girl?"
Mr. Sanders is not endearing himself to Father Liukin.
1:23 -- "Don't worry Dad; I got you."
Father Liukin thinks, "Yea. Sure you do you son of a b***h."
1:53 -- "There you go! That's the way to get an AT&T Wireless in there, GIRL!"
2:22 -- "Hi Baby. ... Don't let that Primetime get interfere with our plans."
Father Liukin now seems like the evil foreigner who glued his daughter's hands to a balance beam as a child to ensure she'd make him famous. That or he has devious intentions.
3:08 -- Perverted facial expression.
3:14 -- Perverted facial expression II.
3:20 -- "DANG!"
3:25 -- Perverted facial expression III.
3:35 -- "That was unbeleivable, Girl."
3:45 -- "Homey don't play that!"
Father Liukin is not amused by this new form of language from the black man.
3:52 -- "Man she's good."
4:08 -- "Hey Deion, wake up. ... Wake up sleepy head."
4:28 -- "I'm too old for this, Girl."
4:37 -- "Usually I put a little chalk on my grips."
4:47 -- "It sounds tight."
"It's um, pretty tight."
4:51 -- "I hope you can keep up."
4:57 -- "You'll just have to watch me, then."
5:57 -- The look that screams "I wish you'd instant message me, Nastia."
6:21 -- The look that screams "I wish you'd hang out with me, Nastia."
6:28 -- "I have to show you something."
"You got to show me!"
6:37 - 7:41 -- Hanging out in a dark room, just the two of them.
7:18 -- "That's a boyyyy."
7:22 -- Fatherly throat clear.
Safe to say Father Liukin has had enough of Primetime.
7:29 -- "Nastia, this has been wonderful spending the day with you."
But I have to get the hell out now before your dad whoops my a**.
