Not those negative comments about Alabama, CNS or .....y about how we should've been caught for more PI, false start, holding, illegal emotion etc.
I hate him the most about how he tried to manipulate the mental thinking of QBs.
As a former QB himself; he knew how critical the confidence is to play in that role. He continues to bring the seems-right-actually-pretty-ridiculous arguments and use his commentators’ role to pressure and influence the audience/scouts and hope it could eventually affect the players playing style.
e.g.: Last year, he challenged AJ's arm strength. (Actually Todd McShameless also repeat the comments and got burned by AJ in the Kentucky game). This year, he continued to challenge Sims's deep ball ability and his performance on the road.
In the LSU game and the MSU game, he plotted two charts and claiming Sims does not have the deep ball throwing ability.
What's so wrong about these charts? Big Ben once said: Even every QB in NFL can drop a 50 yard bomb easily; QBs are not trained to throw that often. They've been trained to throw 5-10 yard one time and move the ball gradually and successfully. No QB can throw 20 yards or more consistently. If you plot manning’s chart in super bowl that would be miserable. Actually plot any QB’s chart it will be high dose of 5-10’s and occasionally 20’s. That chart is quite misleading.
On Sims’ road performance, come on. Who won the game for us? Who led that championship drive like AJ did in 2012? Of course road game is hard, SEC road game is even harder. Everyone may suffer, that’s why there’s sth called home field advantage.
What I want to bring here is I hope our fans can understand that haters hate, and sometimes they are smart and they’ve been creative. If we buy their arguments, follow their logic. We may end up expecting Sims doing things not on the best interest of our team. (Remember what AJ did in the Suger Bowl, he proved he can throw deep, so what?).
