Bode Miller Apologizes After Blaming Olympic Skier’s Poor Performance On Getting Married [VIDEO]

Miller’s comments were made Wednesday night as the world watched Olympian Anna Veith struggle on the women’s giant slalom course to win the gold. She has been battling a knee injury since bringing home both a gold and silver medal at the winter games in 2014.

“The knee is certainly an issue,” Miller explained on-air. “I want to point out she also got married and it’s historically very challenging to race on World Cup with a family or after being married. Not to blame the spouses, but I just want to toss that out there, that it could be her husband’s fault.”

“I’d go to Golden State,” Shaq said, immediately getting a reaction out of Smith. “I’m not joking. One: he’s older. He’s on his way down. He already got what, four rings?”

After Smith corrected him to say that he only had three, Shaq responded, “go get three more, that’s what it’s about right?”

Smith predictably ripped into the former Los Angeles Laker at which point it became unclear whether he was being serious or simply trying to get a rise out of the “First Take” host.

“I told my boy the other day, if you could do that, I woul..
