The one that’s been on my mind of
late is how much it is less a discourse
than a deafening, concurrent series of ill-considered monologues. In response to those monologues come (sometimes a great many) comments that replicate them almost identically; not questions, not really engagements with the source-post, not even really comments in any meaningful way: just sort of instant homages to both the

As most sports media followers are well aware,
ESPN lured writer Rick Reilly away from Sports Illustrated

So, your team wins a title for the
first time in 22 years and how do you

Hey Sully, let me tell ya, nothing makes you look "hard" like throwing street signs through an unguarded storefront. "Woohoo our ...

So now, now, when the Celtics hoist banner
number seventeen into the rafters, I don’t want to
hear about your joy. Not one word. You are the guy who put the balloons up in the LA rafters and was ready to party. And like Don Nelson, I am here to rain on that parade.

Reading Rick Reilly is like rooting for Justin
Timberlake to get lucky, Exxon to hit a gusher,
Bill Gates to find a twenty on the sidewalk. It takes no imagination. It takes no courage. Rooting for Bill Simmons, on the other hand, is like rooting for the salmon to eat the bear. It takes faith. It takes forgiveness. It takes Tums. Simmons is a roller coaster in an earthquake.
