Bill Simmons Quotes

Writing is like playing golf - you have to keep working at your swing Picture Quote #1
I pride myself as being a very supportive parent. I go to my daughter’s soccer games. I hit most of them. I try to go to all of them Picture Quote #1
I graduated college in 1992 and didn’t reach a sizable audience with my column for nine solid years. If I had started ten years later, or ten years sooner, everything could have happened sooner, obviously. But if I had started fifteen years later? I don’t know Picture Quote #1
I think one of the great things about a football season is that you see teams play in all types of environments, and if you can’t handle one of them, you probably don’t deserve to win anyway Picture Quote #1
First impressions matter more in basketball than in any other sport, and they can be savored only in person. Players can’t hide behind pads or helmets, so we can stare at them, evaluate every move they make: running, jumping, walking, even ogling the cheerleaders. We can see every ripple and tattoo. If they’re lazy, we can tell Picture Quote #1
One of my favorite things about basketball is that you can’t break it down into some sort of science that makes total sense Picture Quote #1

Why should it matter to us when wrestlers are found dead in their beds or seen limping around on two fake hips? Why should it matter to us that there’s a list of modern wrestlers who died before the age of 50 - many of them famous - and that the list is more than 70 names long? Hey, there’s always another wave of guys on the way. Always Picture Quote #1
We don’t realize how much the NFL is quietly drifting towards flag football. During the 80s, part of the defense’s goal was to put the fear of God into offensive players... that’s fading away Picture Quote #1
Our favorite teams bring people together, keep family members close, bond people from different generations. Some of the happiest moments of my life involve something that happened with one of my teams Picture Quote #1
Our favorite teams bring people together, keep family members close, bond people from different generations. Some of the happiest moments of my life involve something that happened with one of my teams. Some of the best relationships I ever had were with Boston athletes that I never even met Picture Quote #1
Five days after the Tsarnaev brothers blew up Boston’s most sacred event, and just 24 hours after one brother was killed and the other was caught, everyone decided that it was OK to play baseball at Fenway again. The game happened on a Saturday afternoon, preceded by an emotional ceremony and many prayers Picture Quote #1
There’s a tipping point that happens with soccer in which you just kinda get it. I was drawn to it because the best soccer teams play similarly to my favorite basketball teams - like the eighties Lakers or eighties Celtics - teams that emphasized teamwork over individualism and relied on passing as their biggest ongoing edge Picture Quote #1

I am old enough to remember every Red Sox season since 1975. Baseball is long. Baseball takes forever. It’s day in, day out, for six solid months - seven if you’re lucky. Winning is always fun Picture Quote #1
You always hear that tragedies put sports in perspective, that they prove we shouldn’t care this much about the successes and failures of a bunch of wealthy strangers. I’m going the other way - sometimes, sports put everything else in perspective Picture Quote #1
Coffee is the highlight of my day. After coffee everything is downhill Picture Quote #1
But that’s the thing about basketball: you don’t play games on paper Picture Quote #1

When I was in elementary school, we had the kid who threw chairs, the kid who stuttered, and the kid who went to the bathroom on himself... but we never had the kid who came in one day and started shooting everyone Picture Quote #1
