[Gwedd]

Chris Berman out as face of ESPN's NFL coverage after this year

Chris Berman is out as the lead face and voice of ESPN's NFL studios hows after 31 years.

The 61-year-old Berman will step down as host of ESPN's "Sunday NFL Countdown," "Monday Night Countdown" and "NFL Primetime" after Super Bowl LI on Feb. 5, ESPN announced Thursday.

I am more and more optimistic about 2017 as each day passes.

Given how long he's been there, his salary is more than likely a problem for a company that is losing money hand over fist.

 

[oldrover]

Berman out?!?!

"C'mon, man!"

 

[Patjew]

PMT will not be the same.

"They just don't like their commentators anymore"

 

[BaconGrundleCandy]

Heard so much about this guy ...

That whole ****show is going down fast.

 

[RobertWeathers]

This had been rumored for a while.

He was old school. I didn't have a problem with him really.

I think BB liked him.

That network is really going through an identity crisis.

The dude was harmless. Also kind of worthless though.

 

[HeadHunter]

Count me in as another person that enjoyed his commentary. But I agree with what was said above. That company is failing fast.

 

[RelocatedPatFan]

Haven't watched ESPN in awhile so I haven't seen him at all. While his antics were a bit cheesy, the guy seemed ok and loved football/football people and it showed.

Least of their problems is right. Just imagine who from the younger crowd could replace him?????

Nightmare scenarios: for ex, an ex-qb of the Lambs?

Harrison or Moss would be the only good possibilities (unless they went outside, which they cant afford).

 

[HTownChris]

I don't really have a problem with him so much, but his shtick was old. Kinda like a comedian that reuses the same joke everytime they perfoms.

I do enjoy the fact that espn has gotten too big for their britches.

 

[XLIX]

I cannot imagine them replacing him with anyone who improves the product.

[RecoveringCowboy]

This needs to go up at ESPN

 

[Gwedd]

He might have seemed harmless, but back during Spygate, he always shaded his views with a bias towards the patriots being cheaters, and never backed away from that. He also led the charge with Tomase' faux news story about New England filming the Rams' walkthroughs before the Superbowl.

I will never forgive him for that. Never.

Rex Ryan

LOL, yeah i guess he might be desperate at this point and so be cheap enough for bspn.

But he might just demand that his brother be hired too, as a cameraman or something. The Execs might have a problem with that

 

[Joker]

How deflating for the "deflators!" denouncer....now he can go "back! back! back" to Maury's Wigs and get that dead rat on his head squared away.
