is their a way to catch his show is you don't have HBO. Love his stuff as he is just as good as stewart and colbert.
Why? ESPN pays him to tell his opinion and he did. The NFL has ****ed this up from the start and need to take some heat for it.
I'm not a simmons fan but ESPN is a bit of a hypocrite for letting others have a forum to talk about goodell but he isn't allowed too.
This is especially funny in the wake of this article:
http://espn.go.com/blog/ombudsman/post/_/id/453/espn-flexes-journalistic-muscle-on-rice
That's almost as funny as this:
"ESPN appointed Robert Lipsyte for an 18-month term as ombudsman to offer independent examination and analysis of ESPN's television, radio, print and digital offerings."
...while the guy draws a paycheck from ESPN, and can't publish anything without the approval of ESPN's editors.
it it will be interesting to see what Simmons does. He basically is ESPNs website. I hope he calls their ******** and goes public. Whatever that might be. The only reason ESPN suspends him is cause of their relationship with the NFL.
I'm just going to go on a limb and say he wasn't suspended for the subject matter or what he said on that subject matter... outside of two words.
F------ B-------
If he truly said the words uncensored, I see why ESPN is suspending him.
In a podcast, though, I think...not live on ESPN. (clear statement of I think because all I know is from that link above).
