Lauer Just Can't Seem To Recall Couric at Parade
A painful period he'd rather forget?
Asked to name the person who preceded Meredith Vieira as his Today sidekick, Matt Lauer declined to mention Katie Couric, claiming "there was no one ever. No one came before Meredith."
Matt's convenient case of amnesia came in response to a question from Robin Hall, who is celebrating his 10th and last year as executive producer of Macy's Thanksgiving parade. Reminiscing with Matt and Meredith, an impish Hall had clearly decided to stir up a little trouble with his question. But Matt wouldn't bite.View video after the jump.
Watch Matt avoid mentioning She Who Must Not Be Named. Should make for an interesting reunion if and when Katie returns to NBC.
MATT LAUER: Ten years for you--ten years for us. At least me in this--Meredith for the last several years. And you've been a delight, you really have.
ROBIN HALL: Who was that woman before Meredith?
[Laughter all around.]
LAUER: There was no one ever. No one came before Meredith--are you kidding?
Meredith diplomatically endeavors to change the subject.
MEREDITH VIEIRA: What are you doing next Thanksgiving?

That's because Lauer was Couric's sidekick. She wore the pants in that relationship. :D

Oh he can alright, he's simply afraid to.
That's because she still has his teeny, tiny balls displayed in a jar, on a shelf in her office.
He foolisly thinks if he just keeps his mouth shut like she demands, someday she'll allow him to crawl over and retieve them. What a rube that Lauer is.
Same goes for Roker.
Katie insists and writes it into her contract that hers are the only pair of balls allowed on set. All others must forfeit theirs both figuratively as well as literally, also in writing,

Come on, Matt, you remember her. Looks like a pirhuana wearing makeup? Her stilletto heels clicking down the hallways on approach, causing everyone duck under their desks in fear and loathing?
It'd be hilarious if it
