No more Bill Simmons on NBA Countdown on ESPN

Can I do a Happy Dance??

But, he does get his own show - 1 hour long, too

The Grantland Basketball Show, an hourlong primetime program hosted by Grantland editor in chief and ESPN analyst Bill Simmons, will make its official debut on Tuesday, Oct. 21, at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN. With this news, Simmons will be exiting his post as analyst on ESPN's NBA Countdown program. He will continue to serve as co-executive producer for the 30 for 30 series.

This means i don't have to see him mug it up, but it does mean that his uselessness has not been recognized.

He's a senior "analyst"?
