uticaclub Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 I'm going to be sad. Everytime we did something good (few and far between) Boomer would always get people excited about the Bills. He's a self proclaimed Jets fan from Long Island, but covering the Super Bowl teams made him appreciate the Bills and anyone that would buy him whiskey
Augie Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 The second one is hilarious a little da da da 8% codeine won't hurt ya ! Hahahaha. Get it together Boomer. HA! How did I miss the middle one? He can see the camera in front of him, right? Well......maybe not!
RevWarRifleman Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 Loved him during the Bills playoff & SB years. But yes, especially in the later/more recent years, he turned into a real jerk. Or maybe he was like that anyway and in his later years he let that out more. Who knows.
Fadingpain Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 He's annoying and obnoxious. The only redeeming quality is that he's a Bills fan. I'm glad that he's retiring. In the meantime: https://youtu.be/YMzN45hNs2w https://youtu.be/B0q4oibfs9g https://youtu.be/3_BWBKF9I5Q You forgot this one.
dpberr Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 I don't think he's been physically well the last several years.
Kirby Jackson Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 You forgot this one. Ha ha, I saw it and didn't love it until the end. I really wanted to find the Quaaludes one. I just couldn't.
Beerball Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 It is (past) time. Wish him well in his eventual retirement.
Coach Tuesday Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 There have been sexual harassment allegations circling him for several years now, he has become an embarrassment. His time has passed.
section122 Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 His agent is denying the rumors. Not sure what is true but I will miss him.
Willyville Guy Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 Definitely past his prime time, but I'll always love him for being a big pro-Bills voice in national media back in the day.
RevWarRifleman Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 Interesting @richsandomir Chris Berman's agent denies retirement report:"Chris is NOT retiring. Loves what he's doing too much and is too young to hang 'em up." "'Too young to hang'em up." Does that mean he's staying around longer so he can get a bigger social security check?
Mr. WEO Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 (edited) Tinted hairspray manufacturers are now weeping. Although there is still Al Michaels... And wow, he's only 61?? Edited May 27, 2016 by Mr. WEO
RevWarRifleman Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 Does anybody know the root of his liking the Bills? Alls I remember is something he shared long ago about in his early days in sports radio, he reported the Bills games. Something like that. I'm kind of sketchy on the details. Tinted hairspray manufacturers are now weeping. Although there is still Al Michaels... And wow, he's only 61?? Yeh, he seems older than that. Doesn't he?
machine gun kelly Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 It is time for him to hang it up. But I really miss the old NFL Prime Time highlight show with him and Tom Jackson on Sunday nights, when he did all the player nicknames. Those were the days. Yolo, I couldn't agree more on Primetime. We can thank NBC Sunday Night Football for ruining that tradition. I have three children with my boys 17, and 15. When they were really young they used to climb into bed with my wife and I and we would all watch Primetime. My wife loved how comical Berman was with those plays. It was never the same with the Blitz. I enjoy SNF, but hate contractually they had to stop that show. We still talk about it occasionally today. I guess I'm in the minority, but hate to see him leave. He's like Walter Cronkite was to my parents with the nightly news. I hope it is untrue, but he does deserve a nice retirement if he is 61. It's just comfortable when you have a staple that you can rely on Sunday nights, GAMEDAY! Besides, it was always nice to have a Bills fan as the face of ESPN NFL.
atlbillsfan1975 Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 Ha ha, there's another one about qualudes but I couldn't find it (I didn't look that hard). The fact that he loves the Bills is somewhat redeeming. If he were a Pats fan I would like him about as much as I like Curt Schilling or Tom Brady. The Duo Duo Duo one? Talking about bringing them back from Canada! Classic one
BaaadThingsMan Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 He's annoying and obnoxious. The only redeeming quality is that he's a Bills fan. I'm glad that he's retiring. In the meantime: Thats some funny ****, i've never seen those thanks. I used to watch Berman and I like that he's a Bills fan but i haven't watched his schtick in a long time.
iinii Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 Tinted hairspray manufacturers are now weeping. Although there is still Al Michaels... And wow, he's only 61?? I bet it has been a hard 61. Kind of a dog year thing.

Yeh, he seems older than that. Doesn't he? I remember seeing an interview somewhere with him talking about how he fell in love with the blue collar, working class fanbase we had...and then he started partying with Kelly and the boys

Nice icon with your post by the way. Go Bills in 2016
YoloinOhio Posted August 6, 2016 Author Posted August 6, 2016 Well it doesn't look like Berman is retiring, but Tom Jackson is after 29 years. I enjoyed this article today on NFL Primetime, and how it changed sports television http://awfulannouncing.com/2016/how-nfl-primetime-changed-sports-television-forever.html
