re: "ESPN is in the bag for the NFL" Simmons

So what?

He has been no more biased than ESPN when it comes to deflategate.

Does he have a point? Yea probably. But he is also the absolute worst person to be going after ESPN for this b/c he was never going to look at things rationally to begin with. He's a Pats fan and he has an ax to grind over getting shite canned.

This would be like a man/woman calling their more successful ex out for fricking up their newest relationship. Maybe they are right and the ex is a complete a-hole who should shoulder all the blame. But it's pretty damn hard to take everything the ex says at face value when you know they are still incredibly bitter and reflexively defensive about everything.
