In the last decade, Simmons was about the only decent thing to watch/read/listen to on ESPN besides live sports. I've followed him to The Ringer, and the only things i read/listen to on ESPN anymore are old Simmons/Grantland hires; Zack Lowe for bball and Bill Barnwell for NFL. I'll read Matthew Berry's fantasy columns, but mainly just to laugh at that idiot. Otherwise just live sports only.

Damn gut, this has been almost exactly my path as well except two things: I cant stand any ESPN fantasy guys and was very fucking depressed to see Bills HBO show be complete shit. Truthfully his best writing is probably done in his boston homer tweets currently but i have faith that he will get back to old form. Lowe and Barnwell are gods.

Dan Patrick is a must watch/listen IMO. No sports show comes close.

Yeah, Simmons really fucked up that show trying to be something that he isn't. He is at his best in his podcast form....hour long interviews/conversations. That should have been the show, his podcast...but with video and maybe some occasional graphics thrown in during editing. I would watch a TV version of him and Cousin Sal talking gambling every week.
