Thanks to Deadspin, I've found some Chris Berman work I won't mute

[ondeadline]

<a href="http://deadspin.com/351147/chris-berman-is-somewhat-perturbed-with-the-help">I'm not sure, but I think he's a bit upset.</a>

 

[Diabeetus]

I mean, goddamnit!

 

[imjustagirl2]

JESUS!

 

[zebracoy]

I wish this was live. Then the next eight years wouldn't have happened, and I could watch a Home Run Derby/Sunday Night SportsCenter/NFL Draft in peace.

That's outstanding. It's a whole new "I can't believe what I just saw!"

Glad to see he was drinking a Diet Coke, though. Seems to be working for him.

 

[hockeybeat]

I mean that's so rude, so ******* rude.

No one's worked on TV before?

 

[ondeadline]

It's not every day that you hear somebody cursing out people and calling THEM rude.

 

[Flying Headbutt]

Some people take themselves and their hair pieces soooooo seriously. Grow up and get over it.

 

[hockeybeat]

I bet Chrissy didn't give them nicknames.

 

[Omar_dont_scare]

I am in awe.

He used some of the same words Dana Jacobson used, just not in the same sentence.

He used some of the same words Dana Jacobson used, just not in the same sentence.

Or with the same bottle

If I had to list the worst people I have ever dealt with in this business, Berman is right at the top...

Even DJ Stewy has his rare moments where he seems like a decent human being... Berman, not so much...

The majority of the people at ESPN (but not management) despise him.

He used some of the same words Dana Jacobson used, just not in the same sentence.

Or with the same bottle

And he's the same size as Charlie Weis...

 

[HoopsMcCann]

would love to hear from our tv folks if he's completely out of line and just an asshole -- or if he has an understandable gripe

 

[markvid]

If I remember correctly, they stuck that pregame show in the ESPNZone in NYC.
How they do TV out of there is beyond me, it's a zoo.

I say understandable. If there is a lot going on back there that's distracting, I'm not sure I'd stay calm about it either.

 

[Double Down]

******* it! Do you people have any ****ing idea how hard it is to come up with these ****ing nicknames when you're rumbling, bumbling, stumbling around? Yakking like you're Hubie Babbling Brooks? It's like a ****ing Eagles concert in here! I can check in any time I want, but I can never leave! And you, ****ing college intern guy...

Tom Jackson: From!?

Intern: Northwestern!

Right, Northwestern guy, or as I call you, Andy North-Western Union, are you ****ing kidding me? It's like you've never ****ing worked in TV before the way you're walking around. You what? You haven't? Well what the in name of Jesus Skip To My Alou are you ****ing doing here? I just want to read some highlights, hit up a George Taco Bell, sit on the throne for half an hour, then head down to the hotel bar and try to convince some sluts to do a little sleeping with Bienemy. You cocksuckers. It's like I'm dealing with Larry Self Centers on this ****ing set. I'll tell ya, Damion was right. It don't come Easley in this profession.

Give me a ****ing Diet Cola. It's late September and I really should be back in school.

 

[mike311gd]

It's like no one has ever worked on TV before.

i hate giving him the benefit of the doubt, but, well, you know...
