Breath of Fresh Air for the Ringer

“I Have been a Bill Simmons before I even knew what the internet was. I’d sign on AOL each day and see if he had a new column up and if he didn’t I’d sign off. When Bill started at ESPN he would talk about being one of the only 10-15 die hard NBA fans in the world and that was something I could relate to. Followed him to Grantland where I discovered more great writers, but the Ringer has been a huge disappointment so far. I would love to know who their target audience has been. Are there people who want to read about basketball from the guy who got his job cause he read GOT 20x (network) or the girl who does the Bachelor pod (Juliet)? I’ve heard the Ringer described as a sports website for the people always picked last in gym (KOC and Shea) or for people who just started watching B-ball (Haley) and I think that nails it. I find it hard to believe that Bill would have read or listened to any of these people when he was in his 20’s. Ryen changes all that. Ryen (like Bill) is someone who just flat out knows more about the sports he covers than his readers. On a recent podcast Bryan Curtis talked to Bill about how he only watches ESPN when there’s someone who actually knows things on the screen. I had never agreed more with anything I’ve heard on a podcast. When it comes to sports ( and life to a smaller degree) Ryen knows things.”

“Uncle Ryen is someone who can fix your life, not just your back porch. Do you wanna know who’s the jerk or who’s the nerd? Then get a time machine, go back to 2013/14, and figure out who’s in the Big East.
BUT if you want to know what it’s like to be the most sought after celebrity by 18-30...”Read full review »
