bill simmons IS bill simmons IN the book of BASKETBALL

ya i think this is p popular actually

modern cracker barrel humor

like im p sure this is my lil brother's entire sense of humor

isis is prob right that our culture is bad and shd be beheaded

isis doesn't behead anymore, had to step up their game to get them clicks

winning social media strat requires constant evolution

isis is prob right that our culture is bad and shd be beheaded

I have been saying this for months, glad a consensus is finally forming

we get the culture we deserve if you will

i deserve better

isis are pretty bad dudes, watch out imo

teach the controversy

like i used to be a pretty big michael vick fan and i'm just saying you're setting yourself up for heartbreak

like what you're thinking is potential is probably where they top out

cf tim hardaway jr

is isis just another meme that will let me down? maybe, only one way to find out

ooh, isis. otoh, star warps. I'm not seeing a great divide.

if Seth McFarlane was the grand wizard of Isis, okay, I can see how they're definitely evil

Steph is Legolas?

Did Steph ever take down an elephant thing hardcore?

lebron "elephant thing" james

instead of killing grantland they should evolve it into an algorithm tumblr that grabs headlines from ESPN and accompanies them with random pop culture images. blackhawks win the stanley cup + picture of yogi and the gang!

simmons to HBO

someone itt def called that

if only jordan could've sourced that blind item

lol solid zing

hosting a weekly show. wonder if there will be any outlet for writing or pods.

deadspin post sez he'll do video podcasts

i'm guessing zach lowe will be contractually barred from appearing, which would be sad

simmons getting an irrelevant weekly hbo show and never writing again is the perfect slow death, rip

yeah i have an early an unfounded fear that the show will go heavy on celeb-level guests when i really want to hear simmons and stein talk about the nba in february for 75 minutes

he should do posts on medium or something in connection to the episode topics, maybe, even longer and with more references, drink the haters' tears

this does give him the ability to actually say whatever the hell he wants, because what does ESPN, for example, have to threaten HBO with? "u can't do hard knocks anymore?"

er, the NFL, not ESPN

heres to hoping he holds a viscous unquenchable grudge against espn

simmons getting an irrelevant weekly hbo show and never writing again is the perfect slow death, rip

otm

yeah it would be a shame if he didn't hold an espn grudge

im sure he will but just i require it to be extremely public and unrelenting, otherwise he is no use to me

lol

hbo to make move of espn oral history starring frank caliendo, hybrid of beloved hbo classics the late shift and rich little's a christmas carol

heres to hoping he holds a viscous unquenchable grudge against espn

this is absolutely crucial

hmmm might make it worth keeping my hbonow membership

simmons getting an irrelevant weekly hbo show and never writing again is the perfect slow death, rip

Otm it's so funny that he's basically terrible on TV and that's basically gonna be all he does now

As cad noted all I really want from him is minutia pods in dogs days of the NBA and NFL seasons and maybe another hoops book or two sometime and he's probably gonna basically do the grantland basketball hour with more celeb handjobbery

Do hope he has a lifetime public beef w the worldwide leader though, that would be solid entertainment

i guess as part of his contract it says he can still publish a column elsewhere and everyone is assuming he will do so but idk he seems pretty sick of writing

Can't wait for his preview of the NFL season wherein he gives each team a summarizing quote from Carnivale or whatever

Maybe he'll rank all the Dream On babez
