Jerry and Norma...those were the days.[/quote]

Yah, it's much better to accept mediocrity and not try to make the best production possible. I mean, he doesn't really need to see the teleprompter, does he?

I've never been a fan of Berman and I never will be but I understand the tirade. Call it prima donna, call it being an asshole but when your face and your name are part of one of the more higher rated programs of the week, you might maybe... just maybe... not want it to look like horseshit.

C'mon Gonzoid, no one is saying that he should "accept mediocrity"...and he should have been upset and yelled, etc...but was all the profanity really necessary?

Probably not but then again, I'm not too cool under the collar when things devolve.

Funny clip, though, and it shows he can do more than give players "kicky" nicknames.

No you're right, he absolutely [b]has[/b] to throw a temper tantrum like a six year-old child. For a minute and half. Something that could have been said in 10 seconds, you're right, he has to go on for a minute and a half, screaming like a child, or else he's "accepting mediocrity". Right.

...it would be in your best interest to completely abandon that habit. Not good for the heart as they say...



Effective antidotes to anger are the practice of patience and an understanding of impermanence.
