What a pansy. I find it annoying when people publicly pretend they are offended by something and want everyone to be sure and know that they might just discontinue said thing. We all know he's going to keep reading Simmons, he clearly seems to think Simmons is funny. He knows he's going to keep reading Simmons. Pointless entry on his part.
My take:
Not reading Bill Simmons because he makes references to strip clubs? Lame.
Not reading Bill Simmons because he stopped being funny several years ago? Absolutely. He's just not that entertaining.
I don't understand the appeal of Bill Simmons either. He may have been funny at one time, but that day is long passed. If I want to read a great pop culture writer who can make interesting references to sports, I will read Chuck Klosterman.

This line really bugs me: "These are two things of which, I take it, the Lord does not strongly approve." Where does anyone get off presuming that they know what offends God? I get tired of people speaking for God in regard to things they think he doesn't like or approve of. It's one thing to encourage people to be more godly, but it's entirely different to act as if we're all designated brokers for what God does and doesn't approve of. It carries an air of superiority with it, an immediately divisive aspect.
Better would be for us all to talk about what WE don't like, not what we think God doesn't like.
