Media Approval Ratings: Paul Zimmerman
It's rare that an NFL column makes us feel like we just drank a bottle of wine, but that's what Paul Zimmerman — Dr. Z, if you're down with the hip parlance — does for us.
We felt bad for him when he had to do the "pick-off" with swimsuit model Brooklyn Decker — from which this photo was taken — but hey, what the kids want, the kids get. And we love how baffled he gets by NFL broadcasters; that's probably our favorite column of his every year.
Oh, and he hates the NFL Network.
So: Do you like the Paul Zimmerman? Do you not like the Paul Zimmerman?
