Chris Berman on Golf ... God Help Us All ...

chris berman golf Hooray! U.S. Open time! Let's get that television on and watch the toughest test in golf ...

Oh, dear Lord, why? Why??? Why is Chris Berman doing golf? That's the real toughest test in golf: listening to this nitwit try to broadcast golf.

Every year the bombastic blowhard bellowingly bloviates on only one golf broadcast: ESPN's coverage of the U.S. Open. Giving away his superficial knowledge of golf with every inane shout. Berman doing golf must be the single worst auditory experience since the first time a caveman dragged his fingernails across a piece of slate.

Augusta National banned Gary McCord from Masters broadcasts (a bad thing). Please, USGA, when you renew your TV contract with ESPN, make them stop foisting Chris Berman on us!

Chris Berman
Agreed! Chris Berman's style is best suited to contact sports such as wrestling, boxing, hockey...not the gentlemanly sport of golf.

..ad I thought I was the only one
I thought I was the only one to notice Chris Berman's total lack of golf coverage ability.  When a missed putt is followed by AAAAGH! in the same voice that follows a dropped TD pass, you know the guy is in the wrong place.

even worse ...
He gave that loud groan on a lot of putts that never came close, and that never had a chance. Yet he reacted as if they were lip-outs.
