can't believe anyone on earth could care about anything mike and mike says even if it's about them

big overlap in audiences tho which is i imagine the important part to bill and his desire to be hero worshiped by his base. there is a venn diagram i don't want to spend any time in the middle of.
― Roberto Spiralli, Thursday, 6 November 2014 19:37 (nine years ago) link
not sure mike&mike have an audience
― lag∞n, Thursday, 6 November 2014 19:41 (nine years ago) link
bill's just pissed that he always got in trouble for bashing other espn talent
― call all destroyer, Thursday, 6 November 2014 19:49 (nine years ago) link
ya prob
― lag∞n, Thursday, 6 November 2014 19:50 (nine years ago) link
he shd go work for an actual journalistic entity that will worship him for the media star he is instead of for espn who make all their money broadcasting sporting events
― lag∞n, Thursday, 6 November 2014 19:52 (nine years ago) link
like hes the most popular sports writer in the country but he will always mean less to espn than some rando college football game
― lag∞n, Thursday, 6 November 2014 19:53 (nine years ago) link
on the other hand they pay him a shit load of money and let him have his own website documentary series and tv show
― lag∞n, Thursday, 6 November 2014 19:54 (nine years ago) link
prob just stay on espn and stop being such a baby idk
yeah the prob is that basically any other platform would be a step back

maybe running grantland isnt as much fun as he thought it was gonna be and hes trying to weasel out of it
― lag∞n, Thursday, 6 November 2014 19:55 (nine years ago) link
He's not much of a journalist though
― polyphonic, Thursday, 6 November 2014 19:57 (nine years ago) link
hes a writer or whatever you want to call it point is hes m/l window dressing for espns core business
― lag∞n, Thursday, 6 November 2014 19:58 (nine years ago) link
You could say ESPN is Bill Belichick and Grantland is the Patriots and Bill Simmons is ol' Tommy Brady and Mike & Mike are Eli and Peyton
― Abstinence Hawk (frogbs), Thursday, 6 November 2014 19:58 (nine years ago) link
which mike is which tho
― lag∞n, Thursday, 6 November 2014 19:59 (nine years ago) link
which Mike is Payton, I'd way rather be Payton xp
― Clay, Thursday, 6 November 2014 20:00 (nine years ago) link
ha
simmons is ray liotta in goodfellas and mike&mike is joe pesci in goodfellas and espn is paul sorvino in goodfellas
― mookieproof, Thursday, 6 November 2014 20:01 (nine years ago) link
Simmons working in a different corporate context ... it's hard to imagine that it would go well considering that his first real job as an adult (probably?) randomly turned into a cult of personality / fiefdom.
― polyphonic, Thursday, 6 November 2014 20:06 (nine years ago) link
im sure any number of prominent outlets would let him say whatever he wants about roger goodell
― lag∞n, Thursday, 6 November 2014 20:18 (nine years ago) link
Which would be the best fit iyo

If you made up an adjective to describe Westbrook or MVP Rose, it would be “freakocious.” A ferocious freak, basically.
