What Now?

After everybody, their brother, and their second cousin's friend from Davenport filed for free agency, what else is there to talk about in the Nation? ESPN's Bill Simmon's next [url=http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/041103]piece[/url] of course. Yeah, it's technically about the NBA, but he's feelin' it: "These guys (expansion team Charlotte Bobcats) already had their highlight of the season -- back in June, when Jahidi White was on the front page of ESPN.com after the expansion draft. The only way that's happening again is if he kills someone."

I really might have to check in with Simmons all year...

He's a funny guy. (I like his use of parentheses.)

He's the writer Shaughnessey wishes he could be.

Sayin'. Simmons doesn't jump bandwagons or flip-flop, for starters. And he admits his mistakes.
