Phil Simms and CBS commentary

[HawkGA]

Given the Broncos complaint about Simms, perhaps he just always kind of roots for the underdog in his announcing.

that is one strange interpretation.


that being said fans hear what they want to hear and always get annoyed. Every board across the land talks about it from both sides. It's very amusing.

Then perhaps you can explain why the ref was told to pick up his flag by his officiating brethren? He's the only odd man out and it's the only interpretation that makes sense unless all the other refs were part of some conspiracy.

What's funny is Denver fans hate Sims and there may be a petition out there hoping to ban him from calling Broncos games ( like 40k signatures gathered I think)...

Funny thing is they've won 9 out of 10 games, when he's one of the commentators , exception was this game, last weekend.

perhaps I am misinterpreting what you mean.

What I thought you were saying is that manning said hike and nobody moved but since ramirez didn't snap the ball it is ok for the D to jump offsides?

We should do the same, seriously......

He was annoying the crap out of me the whole game and it seemed like they were rooting for us to lose and have the Donkeys prove their offseason moves will make the difference. I almost wanted to mute the TV. Is there a way I can stream Kiro710 /Steve Raible / Warren Moon. The only thing is I live in San Diego. During the game I tried to find a link online but they said coverage wasn't available in my area. Thanks in Advance Go Hawks !!!

Huh?

Simms was gushing all over Wilson for most of the game.

But I know, EVERYONE'S OUT TO GET US! OMG EAST COAST MEDIA BIAS! THE LEAGUE CREATES RULES FOR PEYTON!

Wow, I'm kind of shocked a knowledgable Seahawks wasn't irritated by that broadcast. It seemed to me Simms was actively cheering our demise from beginning to end.

You hear what you want to hear.

If you're a open minded football fan and not hyper focused on the broadcasters perceived slights to the Hawks, then you'll hear both sides of the commentary.

But A LOT of Hawks fans don't do that. They only hear the announcers talking well of the other team, and see that as a slight to the Hawks, when in fact if you went back and listened to the game, you'd see it's just about perfectly even every single game.

Every team all over the NFL claims to have the same issues with the announcers.

EVERY TEAM.

Lets get over it guys.

Link? That is an interesting stat if true.

I must be doing it wrong. During games I hardly hear the announcers.

I have the sound on, but I'm too busy jumping, pacing, calling out formations, identifying soft spots in zones, yelling "BEAST!", "WOOOOO!", or "GET THE BALL!" to notice.
