Obviously Bill still ain't over losin' Kobe not winning it/sans Daddy. Tougheth lucketh. It's gone, Bill. Poof! Just like that. And that Bill hates as well.
tee, hee.
Made me laugh so i thought i would make a thread about it...Raise your hand if you're excited about Khlomar! (Happily raising hand.) Look, I don't have much ammo for the teams I hate right now. The Colts have been ruined for me; Peyton Manning has become such a monolith of clutchness that I can't even toss grenades at him; if anything, I respect the out of him. The Yankees are pulling for each other, slamming shaving pies into faces and looking unbeatable; even worse, it's the kind of likable, quirky (albeit, expensive) team that the Red Sox once had before they dumped their front office, ignored human intuition, decided that "business-like" was better than "personable," and used complicated statistical engines to assemble their 2009 roster. (Wait, we didn't do that? It just seemed like it. Sorry.) So really, hating the hateable Lakers is all I have left.
And you know what else? It's fun to have teams that you hate. I hate Sasha Vujacic's hair. I hate the fact women like Luke Walton. I hate their uniforms. I hate when Pau Gasol gets excited and does that thing where he barks with his hands at his sides as his ugly beard drips sweat over everyone. I hate not being able to hate Derek Fisher. I love being able to hate Kobe, who has brought me more hateable joy than anyone else this decade. (But damn, is that guy good. I do respect him.) I hate Laker fans who show up for Clipper games and only start making noise when the Lakers go up double-digits. I hate the fact D.J. Mbenga has a publicist. I could go on and on.
I would hope that Lakers fans are OK with this. I would hope they hate the Celtics just as much, for reasons that are just as personal to them. That's what makes the rivalry great -- we hate them, they hate us, and somehow, the hatred is deepening, in a good way. After all, it's just sports. I don't REALLY hate anyone. (Well, except for Vujacic. If he was crossing the street on a crosswalk, I'd like to think that I wouldn't run him over, but I would definitely glance around to see how many people were looking before I made a final decision.) So that's what makes me so happy that the Lakers added not just the black sheep Kardashian sister, but …

The Lakers look absolutely disgustingly good right now. Ron's passing is going to help this team tremendously. They are gelling no problem right now and Bynum is beasting. Going to be a tough, tough team to beat.
Your capitulation is duly noted, DPG.
Never give up; never surrender.

Why would Bill Simmons care about whether Kobe won with or without Shaq? You think he's a Bulls fan or something?
It was a convenient BFH (Big ing Hammer) that Simmons, et al in Media drug out and conked Kobe over the head whenever necessa:
Kobe wins MVP. BOOM! BFH to the head.
Kobe can't beat Boston. BOOM! BFH to the head.
Kobe sees the light of day. BOOM! BFH to the head.
Kobe rings/sans Daddy:::you don't have to go home, but, you got to get the outta here
You get it, blankethead.
Was Simmons one of those people who was saying Kobe wasn't great until he won a ring without Shaq?
He didn't have to. He just took out the BFH and conked Kobe over the noggin whenever Kobe got unduly uppity.
Corey Hart
That was a great movie.
No, Simmons is just a Celtic fan from birth, they're hard-wired to hate the Lakers.
So it's all in your head. Got it. Thanks for the clarification.
being a sportswriter is so easy, ih8 how so many people think he is a great writer
He's more blogger than he is writer.
Yes there's a big difference. Hey let's work this ty reality TV show into my sports column!! Email me about it and I'll reply with a bad 80's reference that had nothing do with your email!
that pretty much sums it up...and all the massholes and Lakers/Yankees haters eat that up like a re eating cake
But, you left off the rest of it, Shasta. That ain't right.
What's wrong with the Lakers' jerseys?
It's all I needed. Again, thanks for the clarification.
A course. If you included it all we'd still be going at it asses & elbows.
"I hate the fact women like Luke Walton."
Can ya imagine this motherfu'er sittin' down at a word processor & typin' this?
Bill Simmons is just a wise ass silver spooner. Charmed life this guy. His step dad bought him a classic Porsche when he was 15. Why when he was 15? Because he wanted to have it fixed up and refurbished for young Bill by the time he turned 16. Hate this guy.
Bill Simmon's sucks.
