[@enochg8069]

[@mikethevicious]

[@SeizedaJay]

[@lionelt7882]

Grantland was soo dope too.

[@kidcudi908]

[@Bigboi54]

Wow, i had no idea!

[@john-hill]

ESPN really robbed Bill Simons of all of his ideas and then fired him 😂😂😂

[@southerncali5351]

John Hill LOL!

[@aleatoriedadesesportivas-a22]

John Hill They didn't resigned Bill Simmons, his contract expired.

[@rockfreek11]

John Hill Thats why Bill Simmons is throwing that shade on ESPN.

[@TheKing7474]

[@pfunk42]

Bill Simmons is an idiot....and so are you. I think Bill is on Ritalin personally.

[@TheTruthiest]

No debate needed. That is all facts.

[@MsImperfectDiva]

FACTS

[@EliBrigante]

joe rogan has that title bud

[@roshaunegooelsby3841]

Bill Simmons is one of the most coolest, unadulterated sports journalists which is why he keeps getting blackballed from these sports shows he has a passion and love for his craft and won't make himself look asinine for extra dough.

[@ADAJ3KINGANGEL]

Wow i didn't know Bill created 30 for 30, Fab 5 is still the best one, but they are gonna do one on Celtics vs Lakers rivalry.

[@TheIcemanthomas]

ADAJ3 the benji one cold too

[@rawman18]

Yall both right. But the one on the Bad Boys was my fav.

[@aug22boi78]

i like the reggie miller vs knicks one

[@romierome8385]

[@1313fidel]

ADAJ3 benji

[@Mrforever34]

Bill Simmons should commentate NFL games

[@johnberry2678]

Thot Quin He's woefully under qualified to commentate any major sport on television.

[@rakansoubra284]

John Berry I disagree 100%, he's been in sports media for decades now. As long as you have a vast knowledge about the sport, all you need is to study a particular team week to week and you should be good.

[@poloregal]

John Berry as is most commentators....is he not more Qualified than Marv Albert? Come on now

[@johnberry2678]

Rakan Soubra That's a thousand percent incorrect, color commentating requires specific college degrees and a vast majority of color commentaries have experience participating within the sport

[@johnberry2678]

Marc Regal Marv Albert has a degree in public communications from Syracuse and 40 + years of experience broadcasting...

30 for 30 is a classic and Bill Simmons is a legend alone for that series

[@OmarScruggs]

Charlamagne getting his sports pass pulled talking about he dont remember terrell davis. we the same age and terrell had a huge career our college years

[@HiMyNameIsJonathan]

Omar Scruggs hahah I thought the same thing. Davis was the man back in the late 90s.

[@Joes35]

Surprise surprise all this nigga does is talk out of his ass.

[@Ralphyx33]

Go ahead and "UPPER CUT THE LIKE BUTTON FOR YAH BOY!"

[@theroblou56]

Bill Simmons is like 1 of 7 dudes from ESPN that I could see myself chopping it up with.

[@theroblou56]

Thulsa Doom he is 1 of those 7

[@theroblou56]

He has his moments.

[@kingkunta8175]

Charlamange sure does love to concern himself w/ other guy's sexuality ..

[@sunnydreux]

King Kunta a lot of these younger cats do. Check the comments on every hip hop vid. It's a million comment threads that are concerning who other men sleep with. These young niggas weird dawg

[@joyhairston-white737]

Ok, that's because he is personally curious

[@Joes35]

It's because he's personally gay or bi. No man Is that interested in another mans sexuality

[@blackzackmorris1985]

Charlemagne is clearly the star of the Breakfast Club

[@Dreamerland101]

Zack Morris duhh

[@neglky]

Zack Morris no shit lol

[@MVPEzekiel]

Zack Morris hey Zack. how is your new show pitch going.

[@RalphLBaer]

Zack Morris not really, Angela Yee's input isn't ever justified. She's just got a mouth and DJ Envy is a dunce.

[@cc-92]

He really could just have his own show

[@youtubegoogleb]

I didn't even know any given Wednesday got cancelled that shit was good

[@sean24833]

Damn this interview just ended and it's up already

[@LeanaBabie]

sean24833 You know they film their interviews either a day before or a couple days per to it airing.

[@bjalex9426]

sean24833 this was from yesterday morning dumbass

[@Realone031]

Stanley the Great One stall em out

[@robertdonoghue9924]

they usually film their interviews on tues/wed for the following week, like chelsea came last wednesday and they aired it tuesday

[@LeanaBabie]

Prior*^

[@KMas89]

always thought ESPN made a huge mistake letting Simmons go

[@Kimmica20]

They sure did make a huge mistake. smh

[@Hotobu]

Naw, it was good for both of them. He outgrew ESPN.

[@lonnieblkpowerrangerjordan276]

Cowboys are gonna choke in playoffs

[@anthonyfuentesafhs52]

LONNIEBLKPOWERRANGERJORDAN as they always do smh Cowboys fans head so big they're gonna jinx it

[@noeldimaggiojr101]

Antdolla why can't a cowboy fan be happy an celebrate after being down for so many years?

[@SSJ_Glohan]

+Noel DiMaggio Jr because they treat a 7 point win like its a 21 point blowout.

[@H2ThaP]

We don't have Romo as QB so no we're not!!!

[@noeldimaggiojr101]

The Boy a win is a win bro. Brady made a living off winning SB's by 3pts..... When teams win it don't say "the bills or whoever won, but only by 7". Cowboy fans are just happy, it's been a minute.

[@JoeMama-tl4tr]

I love how natural Bill is it’s basically like an episode of his podcast more than an interview

[@kingstricker43]

Envy: explain football to those who don't know

[@TheNYKilla]

Hella People hate Bill Simmons. It's like the same thing with Skip. Most people don't want to hear people like them criticize or have an opinion about sports. He did well on here though.

[@TheNYKilla]

QUEENDOM Maybe

[@PleaseBeDumb]

I met Bill & his family a couple times. He's cool as hell. Idk what u tlkn bout

[@louzer2566]

UrbanProfessor dont ever compare Simmons to that lame old senile fart troll Skip again.

[@justinscott4357]

These interviews are better when u don't hear envy that much

[@Smoketreez83]

Dude kept his interview real. Cant hate on him. Exposed racism and hes white. respect

[@offtop3808]

John Yi you realize that's a racist comment right?

[@NiggasDrinkin40s]

Ha Ha! Too throed! Cause it so True!

[@KINGJROC1979]

I don't care what people say ...Bill Simmons is the most brutally honest columnist I ever seen ....they black ball him...smh ...he tells to much truth ...ESPN is going down the towel since Stuart Scott died and Bill left !!

[@roshaunegooelsby3841]

John Rogers I said the same shit

[@KINGJROC1979]

Toilet not towel lol smh cthu

[@Citizen_Shane21]

Probably my Biggest inspiration in Media at this point! This guy continues to create opportunities for himself and his friends. Good Job by you Billy!!

[@BabylonGateLA]

Continues to create opportunities for white people only tho! The ringer mainly hires white people and thats a known fact!

[@vision176]

Odell is ruining football all the kids on my block do the same thing my son cant catch with 2 hand and still try to do the odell catch

[@vision176]

QUEENDOM not the same it's a difference when you try to shoot a fade away or a reverse layup. but when you can make a simple catch and then you try to turn it into a 1 hand catch it's a problem.

[@freewill9457]

Adrian Williams Lol maybe you should teach your son how to catch and stop blaming other people for your issues.

[@tyrellmiles1467]

you must not have seen Randy Moss or Cris Carter play

[@tyrellmiles1467]

and how is it a problem exactly?

[@vision176]

I seen randy moss chris carter all those cats they were not know for doing 1 hand catches they were known for putting in work!! if I yell out moss or rice when I made a catch it was because I burned someone, what I'm saying is kids like my son and bill Simmons kid they have the mindset like instead of making the play I'm going to try this odel catch, his mind is already made up this is how i need to catch the ball that's what i mean by he's ruining football i have heard youth football coaches complain about players doing the same thing. And other dude I can care less if my son never learns how to catch a football as long as he knows how to put that orange ball in the hoop and he does that well!!

[@felisl]

"What do you think about football?" - Direct question from DJ Envy to Bill Simmons

[@mommawemad3it975]

see I fucks wit bill Simmons, real dude!

[@gilbertnicholas1582]

If I had a son he would NEVER play football

[@skubadoobie]

Gilbert Nicholas nah I wouldn't let my son play either, it's like letting your kid run his head into a wall over and over,

[@sunnydreux]

Gilbert Nicholas smart man!

[@nlwilliams31]

Hi hater yes there are risks in everything you do, but there is also a risk with playing Russian roulette. There are somethings you just take a pass on. Football is one of them...go play baseball. Easy way to get a scholarship and graduate from college on their dime

[@ADAJ3KINGANGEL]

Bill Simmons & Jalen Rose made a great team, I miss their podcast.

[@southerncali5351]

12 21 the setup probably predates the filming of their radio show.

[@originalshamus]

he needs to learn to use a mic better. he doesn't have to turn his whole body around to talk to someone.

[@Hotobu]

@@originalshamus He's a TV personality and a professional interviewer, In the first case he'll have a personal mike, in the other he's always facing someone.
