Seven Olympic medalists, (six winning Gold), have hosted Saturday Night Live. Name one to seven of them per post.
Two Correct! for Themysterymachine, (Michael Jordan, Michael Phelps).
James, Barkley, Foreman and Moseley all won Olympic Gold; Kerrigan was a Silver and Bronze Medalist.
Lance Armstrong doesn't count, as he was retroactively disqualified from the 2000 Games.
I missed Moseley when compiling the list. There's a Special Prize up for grabs for anyone who can name the eighth Olympic Medalist who hosted Saturday Night Live. Themysterymachine is reinstated for the Special Prize contest.

Nope, Drysdale did radio broadcast for the Dodgers, wrong on 2 counts: 1-not a tv broadcaster 2-Dodgers are an american team
Bill Russell 1956 summer Olympics.. captain of Us National Basketball team
Who said "They're going home!, they're going home!, yeah! they're going home!"

Against the Flyer goons.
They only came back once they were told that if they didn't finish the game, they wouldn't be paid. Imagine that, a communist regime worried about money.

From Wikipedia:
"In 1970, Drysdale started a broadcasting career that continued for the rest of his life: first for the Montreal Expos (1970–1971)..."
"Drysdale was 56 when he died of a heart attack at Le Centre Sheraton in Montreal, Quebec, on July 3, 1993. Radio station employees were sent to look for him when he did not appear for the bus ride to Olympic Stadium, where the Dodgers were scheduled to play the Montreal Expos."
Drysdale was a TV broadcaster for the Expos in 1970-71; Russ Taylor and Dave Van Horne were the English radio commentators. Based on how you worded the question, this should qualify as correct.

What's the matter with you? Didn't I tell you? Didn't I tell you? Didn't I TELL you? What's the matter with you? What the fuck's the matter with you? Didn't I tell you? What's the matter with you?

Bill Russell IS the eighth Olympic Medal winning host of Saturday Night Live, and you would have been the first recipient of a second Special Prize IF YOU HAD QUOTED THE ORIGINAL QUESTION POST INSTEAD OF THE RE-POST. Instead of a Special Prize, here's one and a half lines of Robert Di Nero:

Nope, at the time of his death, Drysdale wasn't tv broadcasting for a Canadian sports team, he was radio broadcasting for the Dodgers.
My question wording is that this person died while being a canadian sports team tv broadcaster.
