Bill Simmons...we salute you!

Bill Simmons must be considered for the 'Dee-Nee Hall of Fame' on this one.  The one blunder...why in the hell is he not pinch hitting Marty Barrett? Check it.  Absolutely classik.

Thanks for the link.  ESPN has been loading up kinda funny for me and that pic wasn't there when I originally read the article.  Yeah, who the hell leaves Barrett in?

Bump -

I can't believe I missed this the first time, nice article sounds like college for me in the dorms.  I had a roommate that flunked out because he spent so much time playing video games (RBI, Tecmo Super Bowl, Dr. Mario against me) then he'd go down the hall and play Mortal Kombat all night.

Did you guys ever read Simmons on his old www.sportsguy.net site?  we found him prolly three years ago..before Page 2 was even opened...and he just wrote about Boston teams and pop culture and vegas...but back then he did a question answer column every like two weeks...

It was by far the best work because he didnt have an editor so he made extremely raunchy jokes and great references that only few people got....plus if you emailed him almost always answered back a two or three liner...or if it were a good subject he'd correspond quite a bit...

Somebody should email simmons and point him to dee-nee.com - of course I'm too lazy to...

If I remember, I did this very thing after the RBI column.  I'll do it again just for the hell of it.
