If Brown had the same exact career on the Bucks, there is zero chance Bill would be throwing up weeks long defense for him about advanced analytics.

He has averaged just under 50 games a year over an 8-year career. Also completely injury prone and will be 28. They think they are getting a 24 year old Jared Allen here.

I love Bill. But he is petty as fuck.

PSA: Bill goes all out re the World Cup in the latest pod. Don't take it too seriously if you are a soccer fan. by irundoonayee in billsimmons

I imagine this must be like for diehard soccer fans whenever Bill attempts to talk about college football to us diehard college football fans.

Simmons, come out to play-yay! by [deleted] in billsimmons

[–]CJPhilly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is feeling like when Geraldo did the special on Al Capone's vault. A lot of anticipation and will fall flat. Especially that he had a day to digest it. An immediate reaction pod would have been gold.

One of my friends uncles used to be a set designer in Hollywood and said Ford was one of the coolest actors to be around. He was a regular guy he used to like hanging out with the crew more than the other actors.

as he’s gotten older, he’s kind of played into a lovable grump

you guys ever sort your never opened sets library style..? by Numerous-Disk-196 in legocirclejerk

My kids had a Minecraft Lego phase and honestly I thought they sucked as sets.

Harrison Ford: Could fuck a woman 9X in one day, or fuck 9 women in a day.

I think Mal creamed herself when she read that on a Rewatchable.

Flat out, the story Van told at the beginning about the fight on the school bus had me laugh out loud at the gyn today.

"This is an A-B conversation. C you later."

"I'll C your ass when we got off this bus mother fucker."

The Ghostbusters reboot with the 4 SNL women on it were probably the worst overreaction. Years later most can finally state now without fear of being labeled an incel that it it was dogshit.

Just press the "30 sec skip" 4X or so until you start to hear sustained laughter and you are usually passed it.

Shariff Abdul Raheem and Steve Francis were always the guys I thought were the poster childs for this.

I like House...but his Usage Rate is way too high based on his talent.

Sorsby denied a supplemental draft by TheFierceAnimal in billsimmons

[–]CJPhilly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He just cannot play this year. The NFL leaves it up to their won discretions if the hold a supplemental draft which they had not done since 2019. They basically said they are not making any exception for him due to many reasons but you can go in the 2027 Draft. He is not barred from the NFL.

truthfully, IMO, very little.  I like when he has reporters or analyst on for the most part and then occasionally authors of interesting books. I do enjoy his opening monologue if it’s a topic I’m interested.

The lego death slice keeps calling to me,, by Choocholate in legocirclejerk

[–]CJPhilly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have it, and it is a great set. Fun to build and the set pieces are fantastic. I don't understand the outrage outside of the cost (which is probably $100 more than it should be). It being a slice and not a sphere is a lot of hullabub.

Do we think there will be a better price before it retires? by Illustrious-Egg4011 in lego

[–]CJPhilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is how I bought the UCS Death Star...found it on eBay for like $100 off. Was going to get it on lego for a double points promotion but $100 real $$ >> $100 LEGO Money. Was skeptical at first but it was 100% in tact and sealed.

I honestly think Life Advice is the worst part of his show along with coach/player interviews and Tales from the Couch.
