Bill Simmons has had a longtime difficult relationship with ESPN management(mainly his editors), suspended longer than Skip Bayless (who is giving a statement on his departure) for calling Goddell (daring management while calling him a liar) than Skip Bayless (I may be confusing this with his morning show co-host--he sometimes didn't cross that line though he did cross lines) did blaming the victim for Ray Rice but interested to know where he is to follow his writing. A lot of his predictions would annoy me & turn out incorrect but at-least he was interesting. ESPN has quite a few poor professionals giving "expert" opinions. Skip Bayless still has a job. Even worse, I bet racist radio host Colin Cowherd still has a job. What other ignorant hacks still have a job?
