But thats my point, I shouln't have too.

I would love to see some Net Work Genius come up with a way for veiwers to go to their Audio Adjust Screen and select PA ONLY. where it mutes the announcers and lets you just listen to the Public Announce System, just like you were at the Game.

Snake you think you can call your connections and get this Done ? There is a case of your favorite Beer in it for you , if you can.

If anyone can figure out how we can get this accomplished, I would buy you Beer for Life.

Seriously Guys, with technology today, you think we could package something like this up and sell it to the Networks, cable and satelite companies ?

Adding another TV personality who DESPISES fantasy football is WSOP commentator Norman Chad. I believe I learned that in the book COMMITTED: Confessions of a Fantasy Football Junkie.

My goal ever since is to make a WSOP final table. Not for the money. Not for the glory. Not for the chance at a bracelet. Not to get on TV. It would be to STICK IT to Norman by talking ONLY about fantasy football during the wsop interview sessions. heheh

Shame on Berman! ROTFLMAO on the 2 pix!! -z-

When I saw him say it live (Berman)...it sure didn't come off as a disrespect of fantasy football...but more of a respect for actual football and football related news in my opinion.

Don't let this game go to your heads. Gamblers run things...they dwarf fantasy football money big time.

There's more money bet on a single week of football world wide...than all the high stakes fantasy leagues combined.

For all the tiny leagues...there are just as many tiny bets laid.

You wish to go off guesstimates on FFB, and "reported" guesstimates on NFL gambling...you'd lose that bet easy.

Gamblers are why the games still have commercials in the 4th quarter of blowouts.

Don't know who's worse Berman or that idiot Steven A. Smith. Just read this article and it made me realize why I change the channel as soon as this clown starts spewing on anything.

Yet another reason not to like Steven A Smith.

Does anybody know what the "A" stands for???
