Most people here hate on shit and take down stuff they don't like all the time. You'd think this wouldn't be so difficult.
I have no idea who Bill Simmons is, I was just curious of the latter part of your statement is all.
What was curious about my statement?
Moving toward 'hating yourself for ever liking something' I gather my hyperbole meter was off, it sounded outlandish but these days I can never be too sure of honest sentiment.
Oh! I see what you mean. There were two different interpretations that I took from your post. Neither of those was correct.
So, to answer what you were actually asking, no I'm not serious. I just think Bill Simmons can be a tool sometimes.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
