Is anyone as sick of Bill Simmons as me?

[TurnUpTheHeat]

I find him very annoying, very opinionated, and not very informative or knowledgeable

 

[Flambo Gus]

Of all the things to complain about on ESPN, Bill Simmons is near the bottom of the list.

Watching Sportsnation, First Take or Numbers Never Lie is right up there next to waterboarding. Seriously, Numbers Never Lie might be the worst thing on TV

I stopped watching that kind of nonsense when ATH was new. PTI was refreshing and different, then that spun a new genre of talking heads who think their word is gospel.

I can barely watch sportscenter anymore because of all the opinion they have running wild.

But if you need a random comparison of an athlete to a fictional TV character, he's your guy.

 

[LAKERSUSCBAM]

hate him twice as much as Hammer

The whole ABC/ESPN basketball crew is not very good at all.


It fails badly in comparison badly to the TNT guys.
And its probably worse than the TNT minor league backups that do work on NBATV.


But Simmons is the worst of a bad bunch.
He has a horrible weasel voice and adds little to the discussion.


ESPN studio basketball is a D+ level team. Remove Simmons and it make skyrocket to a C-.


They should just nuke everyone (except maybe Jalen Rose) and start over with a new crew.

I have no idea why people like the TNT guys. Its like a bunch of third graders who get paid to goof off with some occasional insight from Barkley

 

[RoboticDreams]

His voice is too feminine. Jalen Rose is a boss.

I'd rather listen to Bill Simmons than Jalen Rose, but I can't stand Simmons so....

 

[bksballer89]

Fuck him

Hey, we liked to be entertained, while listening to these guys. ESPN crew is boring and its hard for a lot of people to stay tuned in.

Ill agree to disagree. Post retirement Shaq is the furthest from entertainment you can get

I'd rather be bored to death than listen to the TNT crew. My 5 year old daughter is more intelligent than the collection of dimwits on that show.

 

[Lakers+USC=#1]

Its safe to say, we all miss NBA on NBC!

I can hear the intro music in my head right now, with the man at the end saying, "This is NBA, on NBC."

 

[LALakersboy24.7]

Fuck Bill Simmons, his a piece of shit.

I think Kenny Smith is very intelligent. I watch Barkley and Shaq for the entertaining. I love how all 3 of them say what's on their mind, and dont care what's political correct.

You have to also admit, the show do a lot of funny things, like funny pictures, pranks, and competitions.

So NBA analysis is better when they aren't talking about basketball?

They need Magic, Wilbon and Simmons. You need homers from the big 3 basketball regions

I like Magic better when he doesn't try to talk. Wilbon and Simmons are annoying. I miss Chick Hearn.
