Chris Berman signs ESPN extension
(April 19, 2010) ESPN will formally announce Monday that Chris Berman has signed a new multi-year contract. Asked about speculation he might leave, Berman said Sunday that "this is my home. I'd love to finish here, and I'm going to. I'll be here as long as they'll have me."
Berman, who joined the then month-old ESPN in October 1979 for an overnight show that began at 3:15 a.m. ET, had a contract set to expire on May 10 — his 55th birthday. Given that ESPN/ABC is interested in TV rights to the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia, and the 2016 Summer Games in Rio de Janeiro, Berman suggests he's ready for new challenges: "I took just a tad of Russian once upon a time. I'll have to find my old book. … That would be awesome." _______________________
