Re: From Bill Simmons column on ESPN.com
[ QUOTE ]
Simmons jumped the shark months ago.
His entire schtick was writing about being a long-suffering fan of Boston sports teams. Now the Pats are an NFL dynasty and the Red Sox won. So everything he's based his writing on has disappeared.
He's grasping at lifesavers tossed to him in form of the hot pop culture fad. Right now, poker is one of them, so he mocks it yet clings to it because it's the only thing keeping him from going under.

Sounds like a yankee fan.
