Special K Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I was too ticked off about the game to post this sooner, but were any of you shocked to see Berman bail on the Bills? To make it worse, he did it to pick the Pats*.....yuck! He should have just declined to pick the game. Instead, he decided to be just another Pats* ball-washer....disgusting. Even the other guys on set were giving him a hard time about it. I was very dissappointed in him, but in light of all the promotion of the Bills he has done over the years, its OK to give him a pass on this one..........right?

maddenboy Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I'll give him a pass. He has warmed my heart so many times over the years. When the whole country was giving us shtt, often for good reason, it was really nice to have one national voice having our backs every week. That said, its odd he picked the first game after he inducted Ralph to slip and fall off the bandwagon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's under less of an obligation to be a Bills partisan than he is to try to remain semi-objective. More to the point, I don't remember him signing any contract which stated that he had to pick the Bills every time he makes a prediction. Let's not get crazy.

irishman Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I'm as a die-hard fan then anyone else around here and I was picking the Pats to win. Don't get me wrong I was hoping for a win I just didn't feel it was realistic. I would be a hyocrite if I revoked his fan card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MRM33064 Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 No question, Berman will always be a part of Bills lore - all kinds of good reasons for that. At the risk of getting flamed, I think it'll be a great day when the current performance and identity of the team results in the glory teams of the 90s becoming an incredible, but distant, memory. Sometimes instead of being a great part of our history, the current relevance of Berman, Kelly, Thurman, the no huddle, etc. can make us look a bit like Al Bundy talking about his 4 TDs in one game in high school. Hopefully the team will do something soon to give the next generation's Berman a few good reasons to jump onto the Bills bandwagon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillnutinHouston Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I have no problem with his picking the Pats*. On the heels of his intro speech for Ralph, he needs to establish that he has some level of objectivity when it comes to the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else, no problem, but I won't bet against my own team and if what you say is true its no wonder there was allot of bad karma. Myself personally, I'm tired of circling the damn wagons.(we're Buffalo, not friggin Cowboys) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlamnSam Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I think we better keep the few visible supporters we've already got. Berman can go blow. I would never pick anothe rteam over the Bills. Things change and Berman is no different he doesnt really care about the Bills. His little saying helped him make his name in this business and thats all. Kelly was hot and the Bills were too so Berman rode the bandwagon.
