Inside the Simms’ family drama that led to Phil’s wife, daughter blocking Abdul Carter jersey move
NY Post
Chris Simms had already tipped off the social team at NBC and Pro Football Talk with the potential scoop.
A recent phone call with his father had him expecting his father would make good on his comments that he would be open to letting Abdul Carter wear his retired No. 11 jersey.
Then came a call from his sister, Deirdre, whom he told he would be fine with his father doing so.
Wrong response.
“(She said) ‘I thought you were going to be on my side, how dare you. Forget it, I don’t want to talk to you and we’re hanging up,” Chris said on “PFT Live with Mike Florio” on Monday.
“That’s when I knew, uh-oh, mom and sister have gotten involved here. And mom and sister have one more vote than me and brother (Matt), and I don’t know where my brother stands on this.”

SAN DIEGO — As you may have seen elsewhere in this newspaper (and also if you haven’t deleted me yet from your social media), I have a book coming out Tuesday called “The Bosses of The Bronx.” Much of it details the 37 years’ worth of antics, winning, losing, winning again and overall mania of George Steinbrenner’s time with the Yankees.

That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.
