Chris Berman References His YouTube Fame During NFL Draft Coverage - FanHouse - AOL Sports Blog

A few months ago, FanHouse über-blogger Michael David Smith was all over the rapid leaking of YouTube videos featuring ESPN's Chris Berman. Those videos featured Berman cussing, yelling, flirting or breaking down his hustle to whomever was in the studio.

Well, Berman referenced one of those videos during ESPN's coverage of the 2008 NFL Draft. As they were going to break, Berman was wrapping up the Buffalo Bills' drafting of James Hardy by mentioning that the Bills would play a preseason and regular season game in Canada this year.

He then dropped this gem:

"if anybody gets hurt, they can always take deux deux deuxs ... and you'd know that if you've watched YouTube the last couple months"

This was referencing the video where he tells us how to smuggle codeine from Canada in his suitcase. ESPN has since made asked YouTube to take down the videos, but the damage has been done. Apparently, since he felt the need to get off his own blast during ESPN's precious coverage of the draft.
