During the broadcast of the Los Angeles Chargers’ 23-17 victory over the Baltimore Ravens, CBS analyst and former NFL quarterback Tony Romo said the word “pissed.”
And it got a lot of attention.
Interesting analysis from Romo: “Rivers is pissed.”#LACvsBAL

Tony Romo just said "Rivers is pissed." I don't hear pissed in sports broadcasts much.

Some are offended that he used the word on a live CBS broadcast of the NFL.
Tony Romo just said “Rivers is pissed.” I didn’t realize such language was appropriate on national television.

@CBSSports I am OFFENDED by Romo’s language! Young children watching do not need to hear him say a player is PISSED!!

My 6-year old, Levitica, just started crying and asked me “why the bad tv man was using those words.” I had no answers for her. Please fire Tony Romo @CBS https://t.co/42J9eOMWCI
