So... this guy 100% has the basketball yips, huh?

This is brilliant and enraging.

Because Simmons can’t write anything without name-dropping. It’s collective tiredness with his schtick, not the individual bit.

People need to pump the brakes, so far none of these claims can be truly verified as fact.

Bill isn’t making an argument! He’s just saying “I don’t believe the reporting because I just don’t!”

I could see Kraft having more of an interest in Tom Brady in 2017, than he had in Drew Bledsoe in 2001.

PREACH!

There are many fine shitholes

The Cavs do, in fact, stink. I looked into this like two days ago. JR Smith and Jae Crowder are two of the bottom 5 starters in the league by what NBA.com calls “impact” (generic PER alternate), along with luminaries like Dillon Brooks. In fact, the two of them are in the bottom 8% of ANY players who have played at…

Yeah, it’s really not that crazy that (1) Robert Kraft wouldn’t intervene when his aging quarterback who HADN’T won multiple Super Bowls and who had been showing signs of decline was benched following a serious injury, (2) that he wouldn’t intervene to stop the team from getting rid of a bunch of replaceable non-QBs,…

That’s the joke, MAN!

“Kraft didn’t intervene on decisions about lesser players, therefore it’s unlikely he intervened on a decision about the greatest player in the history of his team and possibly the sport.”

At this point, doesn’t Simmons have contacts in the Patriots organization he can rely on to offer refuations or push back on some of Wickersham’s reporting? I understand Simmons’s whole persona is embracing the fanboy homer character rather than eschewing it (although 10 years ago I think his fanboy response to this…

I mean, it’s a possibility.

Actually if Brady really wanted one he could get a high five from anyone.

Or – hear me out, here...

“One week later, it’s hard to decipher what was definitely true, exaggerated or outright wrong in Wickersham’s piece because, unlike with peak Halberstam, it wastes too much time on nonessential stuff, like the opening Brady-gets-pissed-off anecdote (that happens every year, by the way)”

Last night they got smushed all over the court by a tragic keyboard incident called “Jakob Poeltl.”

Except he would have called Cleveland a shithole. Which is uncool. I have friends in Cleveland. Screw you, imaginary Trump!

Hatian-American here, so this has been an “especially” fun couple of weeks.

Nothing quite like having christmas dinner and discussing how our own president thinks our people all have aids.
