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.. |

Almost dug into the closet and ripped up my Fouts football cards while listening to his dumb ass doing the Vikes game.

They should hire Petro to do Chiefs games. Then we can all poke our ear drums out with #2 pencils.

Doesn't call a fair game? Seriously?! He's a ****ing talking head. It's the refs that don't call a fair game, and they always favor the Broncos and their biases actually matter.

Agree. I don't notice bias with Simms. He's just a ****ing moron. The only bias he might have is against refs protecting QBs and receivers. I hear him bitch about that a lot, but I'm pretty sure he's just mad he didn't have the same help.

Oh, Good Lord...this franchise and its fans have no clue what it is to have people 'root against' their franchise.

Yeah, he's horrible. One of the nice things about my team playing well (when it happens) is that he shuts the **** up.

"....oooh. tough break. It appears as though Sanders had a clear shot at the endzone but just lost his footing" / Nanz
"Hang on there Jim. he didn't trip. he's just so fast, and so good, that the rotation of the earth couldn't keep up. And you'd better have some speed if you want to be able to keep up with some of Peyton Manning's passes. Boy, what a player"

Kosar, Simms, Kelly, etc...they were all tough SOBs.
I saw Pey-Pey curl up into a fetal position and fall to the ground in the pocket because he was about to get hit. . and it wasn't even going to be a huge hit at all, but he folds like a thank you card the Broncos send to the NFL every year.
