OT Simmons leaving ESPN

[Fishy]

I read a comScore report earlier in the year and ESPN was the largest site by unique visitors.

Yahoo and Fox had about 1/3rd fewer uniques than ESPN and they were about ten million higher than the NFL, Bleacher Report and CBS.

CBS Sports broke out visitors to their team sites - UConn was top 15-ish.

Connor doesn't dispute the Bill Simmons creator thing in the Forbes article, and definitely gives him credit for being the driving force in it getting made. In Paste, he only says "we". Maybe he's just being modest, but either way it seems fair to give Simmons a lot of credit for 30 for 30.

I worked there at the time I've got some personal knowledge of it.

where will I go for all his 5k word pieces stocked with useless 90s references?

Wonder what happens to all the talented writers at grantland... Bleacher report must be excited. although i'm not sure there is room for any more tv episode breakdown writers anywhere else

I think Diana outshining him on his own show was the death nell
