Why is Chris Berman Commentating?

[Seaweed]

He is an in studio announcer, not a live game commentator.

[Cuse0323]

He's awful...doesn't inform us about anything about the play. He just moves on and tells a dumbass story.

[ParlayininHTown]

Weed Man, did you know Chris Berman is a HUGH fan of the Tylenol he can purchase in Canada?

Correctly prescribed and correctly taken prescription pills is the second leading cause of death in Canada. I never take pills.

[Seaweed]

Worst commentator

[mosswoods21]

Its too bad espn tries to ruin the enjoyment of watching this game by having these two fucktards announce it. Dilfer is just as horrible as Berman.

[Bluehorseshoe]

Wow, he's bad.

[jose21_us]

he needs to stick to the hr derby....

answer: free country

[Seaweed]

I knew centaur would appear in this thread

[Jrod124]

I guess it's subjective, I happen to enjoy Berman personally

[CDUBB_CW]

2nd game of the MNF game always has bad commentary.

[Seaweed]

CDUBB good point. It is usually a very low scoring game too and boring.

[BigDofBA]

Berman sucks and is an asshole.

His back, back, back crap is straight garbage. He is horrible.

[El Nino]

Baffled on how his 1990's schtick still plays enough to remain employed. Guy should be the Buffalo Bills announcer. Surprised he hasn't blown Jim Kelly on air yet tonight.

[t-wizzle]

Their attempt to discuss the Ray Rice issue was an embarrassment.

[BarstoolProphet]

One word or name:



Gruden



Cheese and Rice that guy sucks far more.

[CWD]

almost has christian bale beat, almost

[TheLock]

Because NFL commentary is usually good, right? LOOOOOOL

[STAX]

I bet Dilfer is going "WTF is this guy talking about"

[RavensFan2k3]

I dont understand how the commentator matters lol, are you guys serious? Only person whobI hate talking is Bob Costas. Not a commenrator, but I hate him. Also Adam Schefter.

[mosswoods21]

Chris Berman reminds me of Pat Summeral at the end of Pat's career. Literally has no idea what is going on during the game.

[PharaohUB]

almost has christian bale beat, almost

Don't see what big deal is. People were being disrespectful, when he was going on air. Which is the point of everyone being there. I'd scream at people too. But I'm not a sensitive pussy like most people are these days. Someone has to tell it like it is.

[MoneyLineDawg]

Anyone catch the segment in the 2nd quarter.....Arizona was marked down by contact right before the first down marker on a 3rd down play. San Diego calls a timeout right before the 4th down punt for an unrelated reason and during the timeout Berman is rambling about how they are getting a better look to possibly challenge by calling the timeout.

It was a very bizzare minute or so because it made zero sense. San Diego called the timeout so what the fukk could they possibly be trying to challenge?? Trent Dilfer tried to correct him subtly but Berman didn't catch on and Dilfer stayed silent for the rest of the timeout as Berman continued to bury himself

Bottom line, he's awful

[Da Manster!]

That is why there is a thing called the "mute" button on your remote control, fellas!...

[El Nino]

Completely missed the timeout. Ramble on and miss the biggest call of the game.

[BigDofBA]

That is why there is a thing called the "mute" button on your remote control, fellas!...

Yeah but when you have people that know what they're talking about it makes the game more enjoyable.

Berman sucks. His act is old. If I here that fat ass say back, back, back one more time...

no argument here!.......I was just being facetious!...

[chico2663]

it's a religious thing that he has in common with the producers.

[jjgold]

He's not bad and he's been a veteran of this game for a long long time

He basically invented the network

He can do whatever he want sand you guys have no say

[TheCentaur]

[dmncnlou]

The guy and the network is a joke. Soon as Dilfer said there would be lots of scoring tonight I knew we were in for a snooze fest and the game was going under. Never listen to espn or anyone in the media when gambling. They are in on the agenda and are purposely steering you in the wrong direction. Whether it be TNT or whatever; never listen to them.

[JuicedUp]

need more Gus Johnson.

[GunShard]

Cris Collinsworth is an awful sports commentator as well.
