I remember a show with a sports announcer mentioning that he would be "talking very fast and making spousands of thoonerisms", but I don't remember what the show was. Does anyone else know what I'm talking about?

It's from Not the Nine O'Clock News "The Two Ninnies".

A few entries in here are about switching the orders of words, not switching the phonemes in them (like the Sheriff of Rottingham Men in Tights entry). Is there a word for that phenomenon? Should it have its own page?

I'm not sure, but it seems like it should either fit here or be a Sister Trope. I'd suggest the title I Am Not As Think As You Drunk I Am, but that might fit better for drunk Spoonerisms in general.

...Platterisms, maybe?

They are similar enough to shit into the tame frope.

Watch out where you step, or we'll be afoot.

Why is it so hard to link spoonerism as a wikiword to another page under a different word? WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.
