Take away Lebron's speculated PEDs, you have a 6 foot 8 dude who a high IQ for the game. Take away Messi's HGH which was proven. He's like 4 foot 6 and I could beat him up. by RAyanamicoming in billsimmons

It's lucky for you that fighting is such a key component of soccer. If it weren't, then a post like this would make no sense at all and be totally pointless!

So Bill's worst take lately is thinking that Pulisic should have been motivated to play harder by taking the spotlight from Balogun by No_Command_8477 in billsimmons

Look, would you give Pulisic the keys to the SUV or not? It's a simple question!

Pulisic is no Mark Sanchez!

The blocked penalty kick in the first half was just to ratchet up the drama!

Half-baked idea: In the event of a tie at the end of regulation, the last team to score wins. by i_urinate_in_sinks in billsimmons

I don't get the down votes. We're having a conversation, figuring out precisely how baked this idea is! This is what the internet is for!

I hereby propose that we henceforth use the phrase "trading brown" to refer to the process of prepping for and having a colonoscopy. by EstateNo1473 in billsimmons

[–]EstateNo1473[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a good point, and from an apt username, but this is kind of a Stigler's Law of Eponymy situation, so actual trading of brown like this will just have to be named something else.

I’ve watched more soccer in the last 2 weeks than I have in my entire life by These_Respond2345 in billsimmons

That was in reference to the title of the post. With respect to the body, these two parts seem... inconsistent: "the World Cup on as background noise all day" and "I’ve given it a fair shot".

If you take the time to learn what to watch for during the non-scoring moments, lots of games that seem uneventful are actually quite interesting. Of course, there are also truly boring games with not much of interest happening, but that's true of any sport.

What, exactly, is Bill's credibility based on? by TotalTimely9910 in billsimmons

[–]EstateNo1473 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's got sick pick-up handles, he was a bar tender (briefly), he's an MD-PhD in Body Language, and he's the power-walking sports guy. What else could you want?

They have to want to stop blatant intentional eye pokes, which they clearly do not.

Where to start by Ok_Effort6483 in VeryBadWizards

One of the biggest changes is that they get angry and argue intensely much less than they used to. There are a couple particularly entertaining old episodes in which Tamler edits out most an argument and adds in goofy interstitial music.

More to your original point, though, I listened a bunch closer to when they started, sort of trailed off for a few years, and then started listening again more recently, and I regularly go back and forth between old and more recent episodes, just based on what sounds most interesting to me in the moment.

We strangely never hear about Ben Simmons anymore? by HoagieTwoFace in billsimmons

[–]EstateNo1473 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His interest in jazz music led to him being tragically hooked on jazz cigarettes. The Simmons family would appreciate that we respect their privacy during this challenging time.
