Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Bill Simmons is The Sports Guy, known for his pop-culture-reference-laden columns about current events in sports. He started out writing columns as the "Boston Sports Guy" in 1997, which were successful enough to attract the attention of ESPN; they hired him to write for their "Page 2" section in 2001, where he's been ever since. Since 2007, he's also hosted a regular Podcast called The B.S. Report. In the summer of 2011, Simmons became the editor-in-chief of Grantland, an ESPN-owned off-shoot blog staffed by a number of noted sports and pop culture writers, including several you wouldn't expect to write about sports (Dave Eggers?). |
