Bill's fixation on RedZone seems like another weird generation gap blind spot.

by **fury** » Sun Dec 10, 2017 12:52 pm

Red zone rules though.

by **Eyeball Kid** » Sun Dec 10, 2017 12:53 pm

I enjoyed netw3rk's Twitter feed more when it wasn't just self-promotion.

Sure, but I don't get the sense that it's the way all millennials consume the NFL.

by **Alonso** » Sun Dec 10, 2017 6:31 pm

Right.

But RedZone still rules.

The level of jimmy g slobbering and patriots talk tomorrow is going to be painful

So, I just saw an Ringer NBA Show pop up with Bill on their recurring 'Group Chat' show... and it occurred to me that I don't remember the last time that Bill appeared on a show talking basketball with Haley or Juliet, the two basketball ladies of note on the Ringer and Haley seems like the person bumped from the show for Bill. Maybe I'm projecting something here but does Bill just not care to talk basketball with women? I just don't remember the last time I heard him do so and it struck me all the sudden.

Both mentioned within 15 minutes, the Brooklyn pick is a discrete concept they are discussing at length.

What's the word in German for when you are excited to hate listen to the impending PTA episode?

PTA ep is out today, about to crack into this bad boy

Fennessey is there to rein Bill in a little

by **Eyeball Kid** » Wed Dec 27, 2017 4:00 pm

All the Ringer-related tweets about it have been on Boogie Nights. Surprise!

by **figaro** » Wed Dec 27, 2017 4:11 pm

does he tell PTA how each of his movies compare to various Celtics and Patriots seasons?

by **Feech La Manna** » Wed Dec 27, 2017 4:34 pm

I had to stop and will finish later but Fennessey was somehow doing worse than Bill, in a total Chris Farley Show zone

by **Feech La Manna** » Wed Dec 27, 2017 4:36 pm

PTA comes off as surprisingly humble, I think he's mellowed with age a bit

by **Feech La Manna** » Wed Dec 27, 2017 7:04 pm

Okay I started it back up and Bill instantly starts talking about deleted scenes from Boogie Nights he would have kept in the movie, ahahaha

by **blinky** » Wed Dec 27, 2017 8:03 pm

i am a millennial who prefers redzone but i'm also a canadian without a very strong team affiliation

by **sleigh** » Wed Dec 27, 2017 8:07 pm

yeah had to bail on that one. really wish it had been just fennessey

Not literally this but yeah eventually PTA just starts using sports metaphors so bill can understand

by **variegated reality** » Thu Dec 28, 2017 1:56 pm

lol, man what a world

by **variegated reality** » Fri Dec 29, 2017 1:30 am

My favorite part of the interview is how audible PTA's deep sighs are.

When Simmons is like "Well, I'll say this for Adam Sandler, my kids love him" and PTA is just like --

by **variegated reality** » Sat Dec 30, 2017 7:27 pm

The legit best part was maybe PTA disclosing that he creates trailers for movies he shows his kids.

I usually find BS's rants entertaining (I'm a big ol dumbass), but this last article is just kind of sad.

by **Feech La Manna** » Fri Jan 12, 2018 2:49 pm

I listened to his Best Movies of 2017 podcast just to get “The Florida Project... didn’t really dig it... it bummed me out” and was not disappointed

by **whatabout tim** » Fri Jan 12, 2018 2:50 pm

I can't listen to his pop culture stuff at all any more.

by **trouble** » Fri Jan 12, 2018 3:10 pm

Did Bill love the three boards.
