If you’ve ever wondered what it would look like if Bristol, Connecticut was a Wild West town and Bill Simmons went back to settle the score with everyone who crossed him at ESPN a la Dirty Harry, wonder no more. This incredible cartoon by Cleo Dog Productions sees Simmons encountering multiple former ESPN colleagues that he feuded with and finishing what he started. The depiction of Mike & Mike is fall-on-the-floor funny and Skip Bayless bragging about his high school basketball career is perfect. (Pay close attention for the Charles Barkley cameo.) Oh, and then there’s the grand finale featuring Simmons meeting Roger Goodell and John Skipper… but I’m not sure there are any words that are appropriate to describe what happens there. There’s no doubt though that Simmons has probably played this fantasy out in his own head a few times.
