Simmons believes that his firing was the result of a conspiracy:

Two years seems excessive for someone who’s outlived her average countryman’s life expectancy.

Why does it matter who (if anyone!) is pouring millions of dollars into what will likely end up being the largest digital media launch of the year, into what (if Bill Simmons is successful and has his way) could down the line become a sports and entertainment media behemoth?

I’m sure Thiel will be calling back any minute now.

Might be going out on a limb, but I’m gonna cross him off the list of potential leakers too.

....And of course, you don’t explain what’s wrong with it, you just tell me its wrong, and I’m supposed to sheepishly accept it, because it came from the Almighty You.

Hell in my sons daycare one of the books being read is Heather has two moms, I doubt that would be…

Because we should all be held to things we said in ads 23 years ago. That’s why I still believe Michael Jordan eats Big Mac’s before an athletic competition.

The NFL: Where it’s totally legal to shoot a guy full of horse tranquilizer to get him to play through pinched nerves and torn muscles,but don’t get caught trying to cope with your mental issues by smoking (basically) legal weed!
