So if you`ll be able to convince me that BB users wont piss him off, so i wont say a word.
I am not interested in convincing you. And you're certainly allowed to say whatever you want, as long as it falls within forum rules.

If Bill Simmons gets half of the number of e-mails you suggest, I'm sure Mark will make a triple back flip and post the footage on Youtube. Unfortunately, it's probably going to be more like a tenth, and that's if we're lucky.

And since you're obviously not familiar with the guy's work, Bill Simmons i an ESPN columnist who runs a tongue-in-cheek basketball commentary column. A substantial portion of this column is sifting through an open mailbag, and addressing the most interesting stuff he finds there. So he's fair game. That's about it.

I'd pay to see that.

NO ONE at this table ordered a rum & Coke

A CT? Really?
Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score
Any five are live

Start mailing old Bill, then.

finally this is the normal answer in this thread instead of saying "do you know who is bill?"

I still do not agree with such a way of advertising as I`m doing that for a long long time exactly just for BB, like WBM deal made by me. But if BBs see that it`s okay so it`s fine with me too.

You have convinced me that this will be fine with him too, so I wont say any bad word about this project.

I cant submit: proxy.espn.go.com is not responding...

Anyone else succeeded?

yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the "present."

do you really think that someone as "famous" as this guy sit alone in an office and read all the emails he receives personally?

thats it! he will not read all, maybe first 5-20 and then not anymore, I think it would be something like spam for him, and he wont register here

P.S.: mailbag last update in 2008 ?

Feel free to ask me!
