I liked him better when his stuff was free. The intern contest was also a turn-off... basically an excuse for a bunch of bored political interns and law school students to throw around their best one-liners about pop culture. One girl was selected as a finalist for basically talking about her boobs.I miss the old Bill.Oh, and try a Dunkaccino if you haven't yet.

its not free anymore?

[mobius481]

I've never seen anything that I had to pay for. What isn't free?

[monsterrain]

yes, his page on espn is still free. All of his articles from the last 3 months are also free. Anything older than that you can only get with insider.And what exactly is different about his new columns? What has changed so much that makes you miss the "old" Bill? If you are talking about his pre-ESPN website, yeah it sucks that he cant swear and tell some r-rated stories anymore. But the ESPN gig has a lotta perks too, namely all those Super Bowl reports and other trip reports.

Hey....don't hate on the intern contest. One of the competitors was from my dorm and I suggested half his jokes....and no, he didn't win. I think he's still doing a great job. His articles have been of a remarkably consistant quality dating back to the Digital City: Boston days. Heh...that was a long time ago. There was about a 50% chance that his site would freeze my computer in those days, but I'd still go depite the risk.
