Barring a poly, you’d be hard pressed to get Phil Simms and Jim Nantz to admit it, but the broadcast team from Thursday night’s Ravens-Steelers battle have themselves a huge man-crush.
Big. Freaking. Ben.
The pair spent more time discussing Ben/Ben’s absence/What would Ben do? than they did any of the following:
-Mike Vick (the actual QB playing)
-Flacco (the other QB on the field)
-Anybody else of significance in the NFL
Let’s throw some validation at this accusation to gain some credibility, shall we?
Ben was front and center with the opening kick, and the folks working the cameras made sure that his presence was known throughout the game.
