That's a black man in the US saying that Sam shouldn't have a chance because it wouldn't be smooth.

Perhaps this lovely gift basket will change your opinion?

DISRE2PECTFUL.

Openly rooting for a team is how Bill Simmons got his job in the first place.

Pat actually apologized to me during commercial break. He may be outspoken about homosexuality but when confronted with it head on he was very nice. I think next time I'm on TV YourTatoosAreLame can be my stylist. Seems he has more fashion sense than this homosexual. #yourtattoosarefaaaaaaabulouuuuusss

"You like to gamble?"

My guess: He writes "$30" out with his tongue over and over again.

As Germany should know, the US doesn't let a little water stop them from advancing.

No, I think he's referring to Steve Hawaii, known racist.

Because every other country is totally in it just for the games. The drinking and partying is an unfortunate side-effect.

Clearly faked. When invading a pitch, would you slowly climb a fence or try and jump it asap? It looks as if he asked the guard and they posed for that pic.

The way she laughs in his stupid face at his total frustration/exasperation after throwing the papers, is some top-level passive aggressiveness. This woman's a pro.

Sage (who's done a great job all year) seems to really dislike him. I get the feeling that Bill whines *a lot* behind the scenes.

"this is not true at all"

You start by saying "you're not asking for competitive balance" and then proceed to make no case whatsoever that I'm not. The system that you propose— which you know would never, ever happen in the NBA, ever— would not guarantee competitive balance at all.

Look. I get that there's a lot of stupid, unfair criticism of Lebron, Bosh, and the Heat. And I agree that a lot of it is wrong, over-the-top, and pointless. I get that.

30 teams and one team will have better talent than 15 teams put together. I hope the NBA falls apart if this happens

You're late to the party, Drew. Clay Travis already set the clock back two centuries.
