Bill Simmons Believes in Any Given Wednesday


Bill Simmons has a show coming out on HBO Sports called Any Given Wednesday. Predictably enough, it airs on Wednesdays, starting June 22. And to get people hyped for it, he's released an "I Believe" promo, talking about all the things he believes. They may be good things, or they're things that should go away. And the final line is gold. I'm not sure how the show will fare, but I'll definitely tune in for the premiere.

NBA Mean Tweets Are Back!



The NBA season is finally in the books, with the Spurs knocking off the Heat in five games to capture their fifth championship in the last 16 years. Fortunately, something that ISN'T over is people taking to Twitter to insult basketball players. Jimmy Kimmel Live is back with another NBA edition of Mean Tweets, and once again, absolute kudos to the creativity of some of these insults.

NBA Mean Tweets



One of Jimmy Kimmel Live's best segments is the "Mean Tweets," which find celebrities and other such folk reading derogatory tweets directed at them. And I don't think any of the past installments has been as funny as this one, starring NBA players. My two favorites are Shaquille O'Neal and DeAndre Jordan, though Andre Iguodala's is very funny as well. Enjoy! And please, make your tweets a little more friendly. We'll all thank you.
