Bernie Kosar drunk on the radio

[cafemerald]

Fucking football is a ridiculous sport. These guys are fucking mutants, running at each other at full speed with batter ram-esque equipment on. No shit these guys are all fucked up. You couldnt pay me enough to play.. Sprained my neck in 5th grade against newbury, bunch of shit

I played for the Newbury Knights. It was probably me that fucked you up you little bitch. I fucked a lot of little bitches up.

How old are you? I punished a lot of middleschoolers from Newbury sexually

I see where this thread is headed.

24. I didn't go to Newbury the school. I went to St. Helens. I played middle school ball for Newbury in the 5th-6th grade. I ended up going to Chardon in 7th grade and then started playing for Chardon Middle School.

man, could have been... I think we're a year apart from each other though.. that shit cray. remember anything about a dude from kenston being wheeled off on a stretcher?

[Mac]

Think about it...

The guy is broke. He got divorced and his wife took everything his dad didn't steal.

He was absolutely battered in his career. The amount of surgeries and pain that guy is in, I can't imagine.

His personal life is a wreck...he has a horrible relationship with his own kids, his daughter does porno movies for goodness sakes..

I can see why he goes down this route from time to time and obviously there is not a support system in place for him.

[JiggleIt]

if he's able to run, its safe to assume his cardiovascular health is decent, especially when considering he's got extra weight to move around.. So a problem aesthetic in nature is really only a problem because everyone else is saying it is

Nope.

[Dog]

Did he become an alcoholic because his daughter's in pornos, or is his daughter in pornos because Bernie's an alcoholic?

They say whores have daddy issues..

Not a popular stance, but I'll go with the latter. Bernie has always been hunting for the next stream of revenue to keep himself (and his family) afloat. Tough situation, but not excusable.

Edit: Now I'm just mad. Rizzo complaining how everyone is blowing the Bernie situation out of context. He told listeners that Bernie was just emotional and doesn't even drink much. I do not like being patronized. Bernie was fucked up during that interview.

BEREA, Ohio -- Former Browns quarterback Bernie Kosar said he’s surprised by the strong reaction his interview on a Cleveland radio station Wednesday is eliciting.

Kosar said he was neither inebriated nor medicated as he gave a rambling and, at times, incoherent five-minute interview on WKNR’s The Hooligans show. He became emotional discussing his appearance in NFL Road Tested, a television program spotlighting the Browns on the Travel Channel.

The 49-year-old Kosar said he was in a car in Florida with his 21-year-old daughter as he conducted the interview with host Bruce Hooley.

Audio of the interview is turning up on websites at USA Today, Pro Football Talk and Deadspin.

(Earlier on Thursday, cleveland.com, in a post linking to stories about the Browns, linked to a profootballtalk.nbcsports.com report on Kosar's radio interview)

Kosar does a weekly spot on The Hooligans. At one point in Wednesday’s interview Kosar sounded as if he were sobbing, as he discussed the NFL Road Tested segment in which he’s on the field at Cleveland Browns Stadium during the Nov. 4 game helping honor the family of a 23-year-old solider from Massillon who died in Iraq.

Kosar said he was caught off guard by the question about his appearance and his emotions came flooding back. Road Tested debuted on Tuesday night and he expressed his thoughts using his Twitter account @BernieKosarQB during the show.

“Wow is this emotional,” he wrote. Later he added: “OMG was that Emotional! when we think we have problems?????or aren't happy?????”

In the past, Kosar has spoken about dealing with the effects of concussions he suffered and the pain from post-career surgeries. Kosar said he understands the interview raised concerns with some, but that he feels fine and went to lunch with friends on Thursday.

He plans to attend Sunday’s game, Kosar said.

He plans to attend Sunday’s game, Kosar said.

"I'll be in the muni-lot bonging beers at the taj before the game, it's very emotional."

c'mon son

Bernie's problem isn't alcohol unfortunately. Like a lot of drug addicts, the easy assumption is they are just drunk when it's actually another underlying issue.

[BigErieCavsFan]

He was supposedly in his car with his 21 yr old daughter at the time of that interview? Is that the porn star?
