Barry Sanders rolled Bill Simmons on Twitter last night
I don’t know if Barry Sanders understands sarcasm.
Barry Sanders took something Bill Simmons said last night on Twitter a BIT too seriously, I think.
Simmons was watching the World Series of Poker and one of the guys who advanced to the final two was wearing a Calvin Johnson jersey (he’s actually a 23-year-old Michigan State alum).
So Simmons tweeted wondering if this was the greatest moment in Lions history, which was pretty hilarious.
This was also hilarious (considering how much the dude looked like Dirk):
This quasi-live WSOP telecast is great TV. I'm riveted. Megatron Nowitzki just lost a ton of momentum. Could this go all night?

Then Barry jumped in.
@BillSimmons – if the moment does not include @BarrySanders then the answer is no. No 1 athlete has ever meant more to a city

Wait, what?
Is he serious? Is that even him tweeting? If it is then we have a whole other set of issues at hand (referencing yourself in the third person in a tweet?!)
If it’s not then Barry needs to hire a new publicist/Twitterer.
