chrisbermanFrom Awful Announcing comes this press release about the newest celebrities to receive Stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and mixed in among such luminaries as Adam Sandler, James Cameron, Russell Crowe and Jon Cryer is ESPN's own Chris Berman.

Boomer, who has become completely unwatchable -- both because of his AWFUL hair plugs and his inane nicknaming act that has become staler than stale -- and is practically a caricature of himself at this point certainly has been on television for a long time. I just wish they could specify his star was "earned" for his work in the 80s and early 90s before he became so full of himself.

Anyhoo, here's the full press release:

A new group of entertainers in motion pictures, television, live theater, and recording have been selected to receive stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, it was announced today by the Walk of Fame Committee of the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce. These individuals were chosen from among hundreds of nominations to the committee at a meeting held June 15, and ratified by the Chamber's Board of Directors.
