That was my take (quiet, wanted his privacy) and I can understand/respect that. I try to imagine what it would be like to be in their shoes - the fame and notoriety may seem great on the surface, but can't imagine what it does to their personal lives and privacy over time. I guess that's the overriding feeling I have when I meet known sports or entertainment personalities - respect their space as I might expect them to do if the roles were reversed.

Sat next to Berman (Chris) one time on a flight to Buffalo (which isn't that easy as I'm 6' 4' and he's 6' 6"/7" and larger frame) - The Bisons (AAA team) were having a "Chris Berman Day" thing going on, guest of honor, throwing out first pitch, etc. You can see why he loves the city/people – I guess that's why he keeps predicting the Bills to win a Super Bowl :-)

BTW - to your original question, I guess I would choose Buck Weaver
