A few highlights.

To say I have an act would be missing the point ... "Will you hear Ground Control to David Toms? You hear it once a year, not five times a year, once a year. Will you hear me intro Roger as Chocolate Maltbie? Sure. But once. Diet Koch? Sure, when it’s in the spirit of what I’ve done in my career for 30 years. Nothing has changed.

Isn't the fund up to $300?

 

[Herbert Anchovy]

I guess you're in luck if you don't do golf or Berman.

$350. I'm pledging an extra 50 now.

 

[spnited]

I'll make it $500 if somebody who's going to Bethpage Black this week punches him out.

I just might do it. Being a folk hero outweighs any criminal act committed here.

;D

Blog? You are so yesterday.
Dude. Twitter.

 

[kingcreole]

I'll add another $25.

 

[Editude]

Ground Control to David Toms? In 2009? Even thinking of saying it makes hack seem like a compliment.

 

[2muchcoffeeman]

I'll add another $25.

This needs to be a Facebook cause.

Kneecap Chris Berman: Give til it hurts

Bethpage "Back In" Black. You KNOW it's coming.

You people need to lighten the hell up. It's entertainment. And Berman's been too nice a guy to a lot of writers for this kind of treatment. He's one of the few ESPN guys who hasn't acted like a big-timer around the print hacks.

I beg to differ.

Combining two replies in this thread, I'm waiting to hear:

Coming to you from Bethpage Black, Black, Black, Black, Black etc.

Is there a vomiting emoticon available??

Maybe you've got the problem, not him.
