(Yardbarker) — Steve Young had a fitting role in Chris Berman’s latest career milestone. The San Francisco 49ers legend introduced the longtime ESPN broadcaster as he was honored as a Disney Legend at D23 in Anaheim on August 16. For Young, the moment brought together two parts of his life in football: the playing career that made him a 49ers icon and the broadcasting career that eventually put him alongside one of ESPN’s most recognizable voices.
Young opened his tribute with Berman’s unmistakable call and shared the moment on social media.
“He could . . . go . . . all . . . the . . . way!” before adding, “An honor to introduce the iconic Chris Berman as one of the new Disney Legends. Boomer, you’re 1 of 1 bro.” Young said on his social media.
