Sean B. Fitzgerald It doesn’t go something like this, it goes exactly like this.

Bill Simmons was on The Colbert Report?

I guess he was. I've always said Simmons should do more television (I have?). This interview was way back in 2006 when he wasn't nearly as popular as he is now. It seems he feels content to limit his visual exposure. Maybe it's in an effort to remain the proverbial "Sports Guy". The writer who isn't too big for his britches and can still connect with the fans. Nonetheless, he has the following to do essentially do whatever he wants. It is going to be interesting to see what happens when his contract with ESPN expires in 2010. Right now, it appears he is invested entirely with the company with his columns, podcasts, and the upcoming "30 for 30" documentary series on ESPN. Personally, I hope he leaves ESPN so he can have the creative freedom to branch out on more than just sports (If that's what he wants to do).
