I enjoyed these videos, much more than any of the work Chris Berman has done in the last 25 years. The guy is a hack.

what about in the longest yard remake? hard to believe he didn't win at least a people's choice award.

I don't like when shit like this becomes the public's business. I don't like our modern paparazzi culture intruding on every celebrity's personal life. Berman's made football a lot of fun for a long time and is one of the better parts of ESPN's history. Sure, he's not the greatest at calling a baseball game, but he had a lot to do with Sportscenter becoming what it is/was... and once again, I like NFL highlights from him better than from pretty much anyone else. If some ESPN guy is going to leak out videos, I wish he'd embarrass somebody else like the wanna-be hipster Scott Van Pelt or the boring former whatever Craig Kilborn.I've met Chris Berman and have had friends meet him as well... and he's always been a standup guy.

i don't know how "personal" it is when you're sitting on a set in front of a camera, though yes he didn't expect this to be public. this isn't bad ... though the f-bomb one below is, um, provocative.
