Chris Berman makes his NFL play by play debut tonight

Written by Matt Yoder on .

The announcement of Chris Berman calling real live football games for a real live national television network frightened and terrified the masses.  Now, those horrors traditionally only reserved for gruesome Stephen King novels or some of those crazy Japanese terror flicks are becoming a reality.  Chris Berman makes his play by play debut for ESPN tonight with partner Trent Dilfer on the broadcast of the Cardinals-Titans preseason game.

Hopefully Al Michaels will be watching for what promises to be an unforgettable night in the history of his great profession.

And just for fun...

@awfulannouncing he doesn't bother me when he does football, he just needs to stay away from baseball.
