Any Given Wednesday - Bill Simmons new HBO show (spoilers?) )

Maybe I'm the wrong person to have started this thread, but I absolutely HATED most of this show. The Barkley interview was good, but the rest just seemed like a guy rambling on about topics he likes. Maybe it works in a blog but on TV it was just REALLY boring. Afleck and him going on and on about deflate-gate was so painful to watch (to anyone outside of Boston I assume). It was also another show where the host, realizing he can now curse on TV, used to to excess. And maybe because I'm not a basketball fan so I hated all the NBA stuff (except Barkley who I find amusing).

I'll give it another couple of episodes to see if it finds its footing, but knowing what Simmons became after he moved to Hollywood, I'm not hopeful.
