Pure Beardown speculation here.
But...
He's gotten loaded and said some hurtful stuff to a couple different people. This is a sign of a problem, yes?

I think we need Mac in this thread

Drinking problem?

Real insight, if not for the drinking then for the BernSTINE psyche.

Could be good.

I think he's just a guy who drinks discounted wine and says hurtful things to people because he feels superior to. He certainly thinks he is smarter than just about everyone he works with. He certainly thinks he's intellectually superior to everyone else in his field, at least locally. He's a bright guy. But I don't think he's nearly as smart as he thinks he is. Trust me I know the type. It takes one to know one.

I think there's enough to evidence out there to conclude that BernSTINE isn't particularly bright.

Let's not get emotional. He is intelligent. I don't doubt that. But he is no where near as smart as he thinks he is.
Smart guys get by in life. Geniuses launch rockets into space. Smart guys are well spoken. Geniuses develop nuclear theory and advanced mathematics. Smart guys suck up to the bosses and tell em what they want to hear. Geniuses cure polio.
He's not stupid. No where near it. He's certainly on the high side of average. But he's not a genius. He's not smart enough to stay the fuck offline after a bottle of knockoff cheap wine.

Don't get Emotional?

After reading your lost I'd say you should speak for yourself, pal. Have you been drinking?

Yes. And I don't know why I said don't get emotional. Sorry. LOL. Like I said dude, it takes one to know one, right?

He appears to be a joyless person, who craves attention any way he can get it.

So you guys see him as a brain, a basket case, a princess and a criminal. A drinker but not an athlete.

He says crappy things when sober too. He's not really any of these things, he's just a weasley little shit.

I commend Ban Dernstein on his drinking problem.

Just this week, I was given the approval to resume drinking professionally as my body is only partially-damaged from alcohol abuse but cancer-free.

It's a lifestyle that is all too often discriminated against and it's time for the drunks of America to rise up or stand or just sit comfortably and demand that they be heard. And you might want to sit a while because it's probably going to be an overly long story that doesn't have a point.

Hey Marge, guess how many boobs I saw today...thirteen.

He's not smart. Most of his knowledge is surface-level fluff that anyone with access to wikipedia could get for their own grown-ass self. He speaks like he has in-depth knowledge of subjects and he sounds informed on the radio. This isn't hard for anyone to do if no one is questioning your information and you are controlling the radio conversation. Just find some terminology that sounds important. He also uses white lies to connect himself to events and people. Like for instance yesterday I heard Dan say he "sparred with Phil Jackson" when he covered the Bulls. Does anyone actually believe that? That he went hard at a title-winning coach when he was some young punk? But it's half true because Dan did cover the Bulls. The white lie makes him out to be some hard-hitting journalist. He does the same thing with fishing. Mentions a few lure types or fishing tactics to make himself out to be some outdoorsman.

They were running a ton of stuff.
