I find this extremely sad news, albeit not surprising, as he has looked quite haggard and worn out at times the last couple years. One wonders if there isn't a health angle to this yet to be made public.
I have watched Berman and his goofy style since satellite dishes were first introduced to us in Canada in the early 80's. No one has ever come close to being as big a personality as he has since that time when it comes to sports coverage. The guy has done it all over the decades.

I always liked how he would shout out the the CFL and Grey Cup any opportunity he could. He was also at that Ti-Cats game a couple of years ago. I doubt we see a mention of the CFL by his successor.
