Golf Coverage Is A Little Too Reverential For Boomer
Chris Berman, on his detractors: "Constructive criticism is great, but to say I have an act would be missing the point. You're never going to please everyone anyway." So he's got that goin' for him, which is nice. [Watchdog]

You're With Me, Election
Yeah, yeah, I agree; there's something clearly disturbing about Boomer being the last human to interview John McCain and Barack Obama before we all go to the polls today. But look on the bright side: The phrase "Barack and a hard place" was not uttered; Berman didn't lose it and scream at an intern; and we got a college football playoff out of the deal. David Frost and Richard Nixon this wasn't, but neither was it Stephen A. Smith.

Chris Berman; Friend And Inspiration To Young Aspiring Journalists
Good interview over at the Uniwatch blog with Tyler Kepner, the Yankees beat writer for the New York Times. In it Kepner tells the story of when, as a kid, he produced a handwritten baseball magazine that ended up gaining a readership that included people such as George Vescey, Bob Costas and Jayson Stark. He started it when he was 13, and tells of how virtually everyone he sent it to was supportive; except for one high-profile broadcaster ... More »

You're With Me, Fuchsia
Ladies Still Swarm The Swami
Busted Coverage got their bra-unfastening hand on a few photos of Chris Berman hugging up on some lovelies at the U.S. Open. The girl in the fuchsia (that is what that color is, right?) shirt would seem to be getting a little personal, until I tell you Berman had one of those glowing arc reactors installed in his chest like Iron Man. She just wants to make sure it works. More »

Media Approval Ratings: Chris Berman
Even though we've been accused of having some sort of vendetta against Chris Berman in the past, we can honestly say that's not even close to true. We still (mostly) enjoy him on "NFL Primetime," or the "Blitz," or whatever the hell they call that now. He, during our first six months of existence, he was barely mentioned around here. And then, of course, YWML hit. More »

Chris Berman won't be doing The Masters, reportedly in part because "it stands to reason ... he was considered by the Masters people to be a behavioral risk." Yeah, if that risk is partying and getting it on. Deux deux deux! [New York Post] -

Who, Exactly, Is Searching "Greatest Highlight" On ESPN.com?
It surprised many that, according to ESPN's metrics, the most commonly searched term on their site for the month of February was "Greatest Highlight." This registers as a surprise because, well, the "Greatest Highlight" basically consists of our man Berman deux deux deuxing his way through ruining some of the greatest calls of our lifetime. All for the sake of Old Spice and other smiling sponsors. Sports fans like this? Really?

Fun With Bermanisms
What is the worst Bermanism of all time? Sure, they're all cringe-inducing; especially if you imagine him blurting them out during pickup sex. Plus, they seem to multiply like fleas; there must be about a hundred of them. Well, actually, 528 to be exact. Yep, some poor sap compiled a list of every baseball Bermanism ever (so he claims), and here they are. More »

When Berman Got His "American Gladiators" On

Berman: It Is Useless To Resist
Via Sports by Brooks comes further proof that, although nature and common sense would seem to dictate otherwise, our nation's women are helpless before the visage of Berman. We sincerely believe that he can point at a woman any time he wishes — like James Earl Jones in Conan the Barbarian — and she would leap off of the cliff. More »
