Veteran CBS NFL broadcaster Phil Simms has made enemies in Denver. With over 40,000 signatures on a petition to ban Simms from broadcasting Broncos games, a legion of fans have spoken.

While the former great Giants quarterback is unfazed by the criticism and movement to take him off Broncos games, the idea of fans disliking certain broadcasters is nothing new. During a conversation with Sports Illustrated's Richard Deitsch, Simms explained the reality of the business:

"There are not many fan bases that have not had issues with me," Simms said. "But I understand it. That's part of the job."
