never got the hype. pop culture analogies to sports are clever until you have to read through a 10,000 word article.

^Yeah. I was severely underwhelmed. I just don't think he's cut out to be on TV. Opening monologue was about Lebron James and Simmons just stared at the teleprompter as he was doing it.

Also, wtf was up with Ben Affleck? He seemed a little off. It was awkward listening to him rant about deflategate and hear him just say the f word a million times without saying anything.

His new website theringer.com is pretty underwhelming too. Wish he'd go back to writing articles

Agreed. The podcasts are pretty good though for the most part. I quite enjoy the MLB one with Mallory Rubin and the NBA draft stuff was pretty good on their NBA pod (although anytime Juliet Litman is on it makes my ears bleed).
