    shame on you, non-believers
Never heard of Bill Simmons (probably sucks) (< this is the correct way Kougar)

I could never lie about Bill Simmons like that.

It's 2008, he is 2003.  Go watch that cartoon he produced if you don't believe me.

It's 2008, and he is still really good at satirical sports writing.

Example?  He has lost more steps than Ty Law.

Which I just said has declined more than McKinney's draft status following the bench press.

Have you ever read his Boston sportsguy stuff?  He lived C-town when I lived out there and was really funny.  Just has let up quite a bit.  writes a ton less, only proposes trades for nBA this time of year, absolutely sucks at NFL picks for 4 years now but makes the worst excuses ever etc. 

3 years ago he said he would be doing a big list of top sports movies...quit after 4 or so.
Said he would reccommend good sports books in his blog...quit after 4 or so.
Said he was going to blog many times a week...quit after a year or so.

He's just lazy.  Explains why he doesn't care to watch Beaz play, just make 2 sided predictions that he will never be wrong on.

I don't read Simmons for sports knowledge; I read it for humor.

Who said they read him for knowledge?  I just made fun of his pics and that he was lazy.  He is.  There is nothing new on this.

I was just pointing out his humor has declined in quality and frequency.

I guess he still has some hardcore fans who think he is totally original.  Most of my friends from Boston stopped reading.

Simmons, circa 2003  :rofl: :excited:

Simmons, circa 2008  :jerkoff: :flush:

I agree w/ kougar that he's read for the humor; my problem is that his "humor" now mostly consists of the same rehashed jokes i.e. vegas, "can I get a ruling," etc. etc.
