He hasn't been for a LONG TIME. He just spun our position as being "just" 2 games out of first.
Years ago he was a hater but we are talking the 90s. Every time I see him do a game he seems to almost favor us in his commentary.

Collinsworth is OK by me. Used to hate, yes, but not lately. He knows the game and communicates it well.

I like both, Collinsworth and Gruden, they know their stuff and Gruden is entertaining as hell.

I agree. Simms, not so much.

Sims is an absolute tool. I think he posts on here as a series of irritant posters who come and go.

CC has been the best color guy for a few years now. fair minded, not a hater as far as I can tell and gives just enough props to his bengals (as he's expected to) to be respectful without being over the top.

gruden is entertaining - but he really is a cheerleader on steroids for every player. I would respect him more if he would point out the good with the bad - he's really all about the good.

same here. i always thought he was fair.. and treated us with respect. I like when he says things like "wow, he almost got his head taken off by that hit!"..

but then again, i only been a Steelers fan for 5 years.. Wasn't around to see him hating before, if he was..
