He cares about being controversial and having a different take. Nothing wrong with that but the way he goes about it and his condescending/smarmy ways are what get to the guys he works to everyday. He comes across as "im smarter than you" and people really don't like it.
There was nothing technically wrong with what Wills said, save for his suggestion that Mike Smith has wrestled back the starting job with a couple decent performances. I thought that was jumping the gun, and attributed it to his overtly favourable view of Smith. But where Wills erred was in taking it personal. He was clearly rattled, and the moment he said “the difference between you and me...” I thought he had lost the debate.
