How Awesome is Bill Simmons?

Did anyone catch him slipping in a statement about someone and a 40 off stage just before another draft pick? It was somewhere in the 4-14 range.

I was wondering if he was gonna be pulled off the air. It was the best draft I've ever seen.

The context was that they were talking about the "Block Party" in NOLA when the Pelicans got Noel. Simmons joked, as Stern walked out to announce the pick, that Stern had gotten a 40 for the Block Party.
 
I love Simmons but he is only for entertainment. His basketball analysis skills are horrible. He absolutly HATED Damian Lillard. He also made fun of the Jazz for drafting Hayward.

Great guy but his eye for talent is as bad as it gets.

I really liked him and loved his stunned silence when the Celtics deal was announced. He'll feel differently when he understands that Ainge is going all in on Tankapalooza '14.

Shane Battier...oof. Whoever thought that would be a good idea is probably updating his/her resume right now.

For real...I think most of us could have labored through those interviews in a much less awkward fashion than good ol' Shane.
 
I hope he doesn't land himself in hot water over this Rivers shenanigan though...

Things are heating up. FAST.

The quote I just retweeted is an outright, 100 percent lie. I'd be careful, Glenn. Seriously. Stop talking. You are making sh*t up.

Also isn't it ironic how I've always compared PKM to Bill Simmons personality wise... etc, etc.

.. then all of a sudden he's calling out Glen Davis, Doc Rivers, (Rondo next????)... all the guys PKM is buddy buddy with.
 
Bill Simmons is funny. He is masterful at crafting and maintaing his online persona. His stuff and his style is very good. But I don't think he would say anything like this in person, you know? I'm not saying that's a bad thing, or whatever. It's just the power of the internet. A forum nerd type who made it big, I feel.
