BeeR Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 (edited) http://www.espn.com/espn/story/_/id/19349242/kathy-berman-wife-espn-icon-chris-berman-dies-car-accident This guy almost single-handedly put ESPN on the map with his humour and love of sports....it's trendy to rip on him now and I agree he didn't move on from some of his "schtick" when he should have, but he had a lot of classic lines and is one of the all-timers in sports reporting...and oh btw a classy, stand-up guy too. Why couldn't this happen to say a terrorist or child pornographer (etc) instead...... Edited May 10, 2017 by BeeR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CowboysDiehard Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 I have nothing but good things to say about Berman. Unlike most of ESPN these days, he played it straight and stuck to the game. Very sad day for him and his family. He and his wife were preparing to enter their golden years together, terrible to see it torn away in an instant. Life is precious and fragile, this is a sad reminder of that fact. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whomper Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 awful news and my prayers go out to him and his children . I remember always going over the names he gave players and just cracking up with my brother. Burt "be home" Blyleven will always be tops for me . Sad stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
