lol, on simmons' podcast today jason gay (who writes for the wsj) complained about "people wrapping [espn cuts] up into some kind of self-serving agenda or cultural statement about where espn is or isn't heading" without mentioning whitlock or the article specifically.
also simmons talked about how the espn.com redesign that basically hid all the writing, and i guess that was kind of early sign that cutting writers and reporters was coming.

honestly i still think of whitlock as the dude who wrote contrarian columns about the chiefs in the kansas city star in the late '90s, so his subsequent national level trolling career seems kind of bizarre even though his style hasn't changed that much.
― circles, Tuesday, 9 May 2017 02:18 (seven years ago) link
he is truly singularly dumb for someone of his reach
― k3vin k., Tuesday, 9 May 2017 03:01 (seven years ago) link
Whitlock is a character, a contrarian buffoon. Simmons is a tedious, pretentious personality.

I hate Armond White but at least he's not Peter Travers.
that is dumb

i don't like simmons, but he has done good things and supported good people. whitlock straight-up sucks, and lol at his hat on fs1
what's particularly painful now is watching shitheads like rob rossi imitate his/skip's assholery in an effort to get ahead

his anti-analytics rant has gotten a lot of attention, and it is very dumb, but moreso he just is a condescending prick the entire time, basically taking offense to every question being asked
