Simmons also opened up about his “not great” relationship with ESPN in the interview, saying the network is “not a good place” and added that it tried to make him look bad.

“So, I think there was a show that would [have] worked within what we had but it was too late. Once you stumble, it’s really hard to get it back. It’s almost like a football season. Like Carolina.”
