Deer injures Matt Lauer

Matt Lauer dog show

Matt Lauer missed the Today show this morning because of a deer. Over the weekend, Lauer flipped over his bike’s handlebars when a deer jumped in front of him. It’s believed Matt’s shoulder popped out. Co-host Meredith Vieira joked that she hired the deer. “Just to graze him.” Cue polite laughter.

In other news, bike is now a euphemism for car, deer is now a euphemism for hooker and flipped over bike’s handlebars is code for dumped in the river. It’s like those rich Hollywood types have their own language!

    Very happy to hear about Matt Lauer’s injuries. Well not very happy. Just mildly happy. Would be very happy for him to develop arthritis and suffer a lot.

    Hey do you think Obama will sign his splint?
