Zach saying no to Bill's bad ideas is great.
lol I missed this.
There's always that quick pause where Zack is probably thinking "Oh he's serious".

Holy cow. Do they explain why this is possible? ESPN doesn't care anymore?
I almost wonder if maybe Bill was trying to keep ESPN from being on his pods more than ESPN was keeping their people from being on them.
Who knows though. That whole situation is so weird and deep that it's impossible to tell.

Looks like Bill is doing a pod with Steve Ballmer today. Interesting to see how much he presses him on the Clippers.
holy shit
Bill is SO FUCKING PETTY

Jonah - we don't work together anymore, you can't just take my trade value idea/format and write it for another website. It's not yours.

So why the rendezvous? Its not as complicated as you might think. ESPN has always treated podcast requests on a case-by-case basis and itll often let high-profile staffers appear on places where there has been some corporate conflict (for example, ESPNs Adam Schefter appears regularly on WEEI Radio in Boston, a station at the fore of the anti-ESPN sentiment in New England). Obviously, Simmons will always be a hot-button topic among some Bristol execs, but an ESPN spokesperson said, It was a group discussion and a pretty quick one regarding Lowes request. Which executives were part of this decision? ESPN did not respond to that request.
So the Ringer MLB Podcast is EXCLUSIVE to Tune-in Radio for the month of April. Won't appear in your feed on whatever podcast client you use except for Tune-in.
Complete horseshit
That's fucked. Trying to diversify revenue?

I think I just heard the sound of Barnwell's brain exploding at this pile of useless cliches and unempirical garbage.
The Ringer would be way better if Bill Simmons wasn't doing a bunch of Boston related articles and hiring his Boston friends.
btw the Keri beef appears to be real. at least that's what all the folks seem to think on Twitter.
Nah, without the Simmons BS, it would be an absolute nothing of a website. They're chasing the clicks, but there's already so many better alternatives at the clickbait -- and most of those (BR/Buzzfeed/etc) have branched out into doing really good substantive stuff too.
The website is fucking terrible and I'm disappointed they've poached really good, smart people like Mays when they could be writing good content at SI.
Whatever. Now that Keeping it 1600 jumped ship, not even podcasts are a draw for me anymore.

So I do want to hear schadenfreude Bill Celtics misery actually, though he's gone conspicuously radio silent on all Celtics talk except for the occasional halfhearted tweet.
I do not want Bill to drone on in the offseason and into next season about the current Celtics like they're some team on the cusp of a dynasty with the most brilliant coach in all of basketball, like he did after they got bounced by the Hawks in Round 1 last year. Or hours of worthless speculation and trade suggestions for a team that should prove they can make it out of R1 of the EC playoffs (ffs) before he devoted 80% of his NBA coverage to them. But I know he can't help himself so I guess I'll just have to look forward to R1 2018.
Deus and Mero hilarious
