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 ...

Keith Olbermann Is Not Much Of A Pistons Fan
Keith Olbermann seemed genuinely flustered last night when Al Gore took his sweet time taking the stage at Joe Louis Arena to endorse Barack Obama; so much so that he forgot what team Chauncey Billups plays for. Billups was onstage to introduce Gore, and Olbermann had to go to his notes to identify ...

Media Approval Ratings: Keith Olbermann
Yes, yes, we know: Keith Olbermann isn't exactly a "sports" personality anymore. (Though he's still breaking sports news from time to time.) But Olbermann not only still does plenty of sports — it just doesn't seem like it right now, because the NFL's in the offseason and the politics world, most de...

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,...

1st Round, Eleventh Overall: Bills Select Leodis McKelvin
Oh where do parents find names like "Leodis"? Well, smart guy, it turns out that Leodis was the Olde English name for the woods that eventually became the English township of Leeds. The word "Leodis" is mentioned several times by the Venerable Bede, and there are few sources as venerable as the Ven...

The Masters Are Not Back Back Back
The Masters does begin tomorrow morning, at 8 a.m. (So set your alarms!) And, as mentioned last month, it will be telecast on ESPN, minus Chris Berman. We do not envy the exec who had to deliver that news to Boomer....


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 s...

Berman Acknowledges Videos, Still Fighting Communism
If you had been wondering what exactly Chris Berman thought about the all those videos that have shown up around these parts, featuring him deux deux deuxing in supposedly off-camera moments, well, someone finally thought to ask him. His response is rational, paranoid and hilarious....

ESPN Reacts To Berman Videos, Takes Them Down Off YouTube. But Worry Not.
Yesterday, in another example of their increasing inability to ignore stories that come out about them online, ESPN released a statement about all those Berman videos. They made it clear the Chris Berman from the videos is not the Chris Berman you all know and love....

Chris Berman Is Salieri To Al Michaels' Mozart
In fact, we think we love the fact that Berman — who, in most of these videos, was making one of his first appearances on basic network TV — would have an imaginary rivalry with Al, who will always be slicker, smoother and more Hollywood. You have to love the relish with which Berman sneers "Alllll,...

Our Brief Conversation With The Guy Releasing All The Berman Videos
Over the weekend, we emailed the infamous "ampex2000," the guy who has been releasing all those amazing Chris Berman videos that are out to destroy God. We were looking for an interview. Unfortunately, Busted Coverage beat us to it. But we still talked to him anyway....

Christian Group to Protest ESPN Tomorrow Over Culture of Insensitivity
It seems the latest round of Berman videos was enough to prompt a return trip to Bristol for angry Christians. A press release reveals all of ESPN's sins that need to be addressed and protested tomorrow at noon:...

Berman YouTuber Shares Some Insight
Sunday afternoon is devoted to Busted Coverage, apparently. The BC showed the initiative to reach out to the mysterious "Ampex 2000", author of the last four Berman videos that emerged online. Turns out the poster "was" in broadcasting for a few years....

And...Let's Just Get This Out Of The Way Early

How Chris Berman Should Do Highlights From Now On
