Berman to Call MNF on Opening Night

[Ness]

Don't the Raiders always play the Chargers as the last game for week one? Seems like it's been that way the last five or six years...

Yeah, they pretty much do. Since the game starts at 10:15 PM Eastern time, it pretty much has to be a West Coast Game. So it's either Oakland-San Diego or Settle-San Francisco. Which would you rather watch?

ESPN has announced that Chris Berman and Trent Dilfer will call the second game of the season-opening Monday Night Football doubleheader, when the Raiders host the Chargers.

There is nothing in this sentence that even remotely interests me.

I will make sure to not watch this

I used to like Berman when I was younger. Now I'm just indifferent. I don't watch baseball or golf, so that limits my exposure to him.

I've had to put up with ****** producers/APs/teleprompter workers before, and honestly I've really had to hold myself back from cussing them out myself. The thing is when they mess up, you're the one that looks like a fool, not them. That's where the frustration comes from.

At the same time, I've actually kept my cool. But it's hilarious watching all of the blowups from famous people. I like to live vicariously through them.

Ill be at the game but I like the idea.
