I was amazed at the fall that he took and the resurgence he had. Lastly Bill believe in ESPORTS its not going away. 2016/05/05 22:40:33 +0000 Comment by William Hanlon @william-hanlon-306469694: That was an amazing podcast Bill Simmons. Take a week off, maybe two. Don't worry about the NFL draft, the NBA Playoffs, the NHL Playoffs, Major League Baseball. Just don't worry about your audience, advertisers, your not the "Sports Guy"! And by the way, you seem to be enamored with your brief time doing a pre-game basketball show on real TV, think people remember you from that. People don't. Your embarrassing yourself every time you mention it! 2016/05/05 21:56:34 +0000 Comment by Giovanni Lopez 3rd time listening to this. Absolutely amazing pod. 2016/05/05 21:36:58 +0000 Comment by Harvard with Honors Maybe my favorite BS podcast ever. Chris is a fabulous interview. Love to talk shop on Business. 2016/05/03 22:13:55 +0000 Comment by MantisNZ Going 'rogue' on people down the street, (The Division) 2016/05/03 01:04:33 +0000 Comment by thaabit Um, they missed the whole part about how gmail could datamine your email and serve up ads based on that. 2016/05/02 23:03:03 +0000 Comment by William Hanlon K-Mart, the Sharper Image, history is littered with once proud companies, people, and stories of once great ideas run a muck. Bill Simmons, having enjoyed real success doing one thing, has decided that he has broad enough support to do what he wants, when he wants, and what his fans and supporters want is a secondary concern. Bill Simmons after all is the successful one, and he has the vision to know what is best. The Peter Principal, the excess of success, whatever you call it, is there anything more painful than driving past a once thriving outlet mall in Kansas, or a shuttered Sears retail location? By all means King William, more investment advice, more Game of Thrones insight and dribble. Cannot get enough of that. Joe House, Cousin Sal, even Mr. Simmons Sr., you are the future Wal-Mart's of the world. The "better" outlet mall closer to town. Start your own podcast and lets put your "Sports Guy" out of business now, rather than later. 2016/05/02 17:08:35 +0000 Comment by Alf Hickey "hack the system by going to georgetown law" lol 2016/05/02 15:47:56 +0000 Comment by Katy I recommend BEST SPORTS BETTING SITE!

We are in the thick of the playoffs. 2016/04/30 00:15:35 +0000 Comment by Chris Sun I love the "hustle" of Chris Sacca. 2016/04/29 21:50:03 +0000 Comment by BEWARE This was fantastic.
