look like the fans aren't the only ones upset..

Now, considering the source, I have to wonder if that's what he *really* said.
Though, in this case, I'm gonna go ahead and believe it. Especially if he (Fisher) heard the broadcast.

I must have missed what Kosar said about the Rams during the game. Can someone fill me in? I must have still been raging about him saying the wrong score twice....

The biggest thing is that he was personal about his dislike for players, especially Clemons. He continued to complain that the Rams weren't "taking advantage" of coverage like they didn't see it (when it was obvious they were incredibly incredibly vanilla).. Said that they couldn't run routes and that our WR coach was obviously poor.

It was just unprofessional.

Though, in this case, I'm gonna go ahead and believe it. Especially if he (Fisher) heard the broadcast.

Here's the exact quote:

"First off, let me say this," Fisher said. "The Cleveland Browns organization is a first-class organization from top to bottom. And it has been that for years and years and years. I guess I'm a little disappointed. I feel bad for them that they had someone doing the broadcast feel the need to speak that way about players, specifically on our team. And coaches, for that matter. I'm surprised that Bernie has such a lack of respect for players and for this game. To be honest with you, I lost a lot of respect for him. This game is a preseason game. Players are playing hard. It's highly unlikely he knew anything about our football team, but felt the need to make those comments. I didn't think they were justified."

Fisher was then asked specifically what he thought about Kosar's criticism of Rams quarterback Kellen Clemens.

"Again, Bernie's got his issues," Fisher said. "They're well documented. Kellen played well. He played hard. He made plays"

Thanks for posting that Blue. You know, that is I think the first time I have ever seen a coach address the behavior of a color commentator. That just shows it is not fans being fans causing a shit storm, that tool was WAY out of line. I will be surprised if we don't see a couple of things happen. A) Bernie issues an apology and B) Cleveland keeps him away from a microphone.

He should get in the porn bizz, because he needs a dick in his mouth more than his daughter does.

What a punch drunk, ridiculous asshole.


There was so much more that he said. You know what a homer is? He is a homer, with a boner for his team. They can do NO wrong. Interestingly though...he loved Sam Bradford...the only PERSON in our organization that he gave any cred to, and the cred was on blast.

He blasted, and got personal with players, their families, and coaches.

[wrapimg=right]http://i.imgur.com/mwzznmD.png[/wrapimg]EARTH CITY, Mo. -- St. Louis Rams coach Jeff Fisher said Saturday he's lost a lot of respect for former NFL quarterback Bernie Kosar, who was highly critical of Fisher's team while serving as color commentator for the Cleveland Browns on Thursday night during the teams' preseason opener.

Kosar regularly criticized the Rams, specifically their wide receivers and backup quarterback Kellen Clemens.

Fisher was asked about Kosar's comments after the Rams' practice Saturday and did not hold back.

"I'm just surprised that Bernie has such a lack of respect for players and this game. To be honest with you, I lost a lot of respect for him. It's highly unlikely he knew anything about our football team, but felt the need to make those comments. I don't think they were justified."

"First off, let me say this: The Cleveland Browns' organization is a first-class organization from top to bottom and it has been that for years and years and years," Fisher said. "I guess I'm a little disappointed. I feel bad for them that they had someone doing their broadcast feel the need to speak that way about players, specifically on our team and coaches for that matter.

Among some of Kosar's pointed comments Thursday night were:

After an incompletion intended for Tavon Austin: "I really think that he didn't overthrow him and that Austin has to make that catch in the NFL. I see why Sam Bradford has been struggling watching how bad these receivers have been for him."

After Nick Johnson dropped a pass: "This is actually not a bad throw. These St. Louis receivers are horrible. That's a drop there."

After Browns play-by-play man Jim Donovan asked Kosar what he'd think if he knew some of the parents of Rams receivers were watching, Kosar said he "would be embarrassed."

Kosar then turned his attention to receivers coach Ray Sherman.

"I'm checking through the itinerary here of guys and coaches to see who the receivers coach is to make sure I don't know who this guy is because he's not doing very good either," Kosar said.

Kosar had praise for Bradford but didn't feel the same way about Clemens. When Donovan told Kosar, who had been asking for the use of a telestrator throughout the evening, that he might get one if he was on his best behavior, Kosar responded with a seemingly out-of-nowhere shot at Clemens, an eight-year pro out of Oregon.

"I must not be because the next quarterback in, me and him haven't done too well with each other, too," Kosar said.

Clemens wasn't in the game at the time. Later, when Clemens came in, Donovan relayed a story about the QB giving an autograph to Pope Benedict XVI. Kosar responded by saying he didn't think he'd ever want it.

"Bless me father for I have sinned," Kosar said. "I have to watch him the whole fourth quarter."

Clemens finished the game by completing 6 of 13 passes for 116 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions in the Rams' 27-19 loss.

"Bernie's got his issues; they're well documented," Fisher said. "Kellen played well, he played hard, he made plays."

I suspect we will be hearing a half ass typical apology here pretty soon from Mr. Kosar.

I will say this, his daughter did a admirable in her first porn debut As Lexxie Silver...
