Zach Lowe is smart and cool... All of our answers sound like middle-aged men purporting Home Depot is an ideal Sunday. This sucks. Let's all get real. And he can't do anything until the end of the year, right? Doubt the guy's strapped for cash. He should take time and learn to re-like sports.

Bill Simmons appears on Celticsblog from time to time under an assumed name. If you pay close attention, you should be able to spot him.  No joke! :o

No worries, he'll be back in action before you know it!
I read that on here before, what's the username?

Here I am baby, signed sealed delivered, I'm yours

Technically we all sorta use assumed names. For example I am not actually Mace Windu, nor does it say eja117 on my birth certificate

Shouldn't you be somewhere comparing Marcus Smart to a young Asia Carrera or something?

I do like the way Simmons basically told ESPN he was his own man above their pathetic group.

Yes^. Everyone wants him to do bigger and crazier projects. I'd like it if he wrote columns, worked on a new book, made adjustments to The Book of Basketball, re-publish it as The 2015 BOB. Add to and adjust TBOB every 5 years. Use the same webpage design from 2001. http://proxy.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/030425 Long Live Sports Guy

Those producers think they're gonna just take over Grantland from Bill like that and people will watch? HA!  I watched 5 seconds. Never again.

I miss Bill.  I hope he gets back on the air soon.  Not being able to publicly share his thoughts about the draft, summer league and NBA in general must be hard on him as well.

I think his contract is over in October from what I've read.  He should be up on the air right after.

Shouldn't you be somewhere comparing Marcus Smart to a young Asia Carrera or something?

Well, they are both well built.

I think Marcus might have the better post career. Although Asia is supposedly a member of Mensa (not sure I'm buying that any more).

Zach Lowe.
