As much as I hate ESPN’s Chris Berman I do really enjoy some of the nicknames he has come up with over the years. Most of them I have no idea what he is referencing, maybe because I’m not as cultured as Mr. Berman or maybe because I just not that old. Either way without further hesitation I give you my Top 10 ESPN Nicknames.
