Broncos fans start petition to ban CBS' Phil Simms from Broncos broadcasts
http://sports.yahoo.com/news/broncos...163030222.html
It's gotten that bad. Denver Broncos fans have dealt with the perceived bias of CBS analyst Phil Simms for years. I've always tolerated it - fans often claim an analyst or ref is biased, and being an objective color commentator is difficult when you're rooting for close games. But now that Denver has Peyton Manning, and the Broncos are ratings juggernauts, CBS has decided to make them their afternoon game featuring their #1 crew of Jim Nantz and Simms virtually every week. It's all Simms, all the time. And it's torture for Broncos fans. It appears Simms is truly unable to call a fair, unbiased game when the Broncos play. Virtually every penalty or near-penalty or close call under review in Sunday's Chiefs victory provided Simms a soapbox to argue in Kansas City's favor. Even when the refs reviewed a call in Denver's favor, Simms still disagreed. It came off whiny and, yes, biased. The words, "I don't mean to root against Denver, but..." even came out of his mouth. When you have to justify your next sentence with that type of disclaimer... you're rooting against Denver. "The People of Denver" have spoken and started a petition on Change.org to have Simms banned from Broncos games. It received nearly 100 signatures in its first five minutes. As of Monday morning, the petition has over 3,000 signatures. Their goal is 5,000 signatures. Petition by The People Of Denver We do not know why he is assigned to the Broncos games every year. It is sure and complete torture for Bronco Fans to have to listen to his biased drivel every week. Please sign this petition so our voice can be heard. We are tired of Phil Simms in Denver! If you'd like to sign the petition, click here. Enough of Simms' bias ruining Broncos games for Broncos fans. Last edited by thabear04; 09-15-2014 at 12:14 PM.. |

I wondered why Nantz and Simms were slurping the Chiefs trash like Fisher so much yesterday. Petro and Grunhard did as well.

I'd sign it just because on that sack "fumble" at the end of the game he said "Fishers protection was good."

So the refs and the NFL changing their rules weren't enough?
Gotcha. I pray those assholes never win another SB.

I'd sign it if it was to ban him entirely. If he's busy annoying Bronco fans, that'll do.

If a meteorite would hit Infesto at Mile High... Colorado would actually become habitable.

I hope they don't change it. Simms is much better than Fouts. Fouts is an idiot homer whenever he calls games with AFC West teams. Not only is he obviously biased, if an AFCW team other than the Chargers is playing well he will just sit there and say nothing.

you know life is good when the only bad thing associated with your football team/game is the announcers.

I didn't notice it, honestly.
Simms didn't get the memo that he is supposed to praise Denver every chance he gets perhaps. |
