[Redacted]:
Who do you see as some rising stars in journalism, sports and otherwise?
Bill Simmons:
Katie Bakes! It’s all about Katie Bakes. (Editor’s note: Katie Baker. Who is a columnist for [Redacted]!) I like that she only writes like once a month. She taunts me with her well-written, biting takes on sports media people and then disappears for 4 weeks because she has a real job. She’s like an anti-social cat that disappears for most of the time, but when it jumps on your lap, it feels special and you’re like, “hey, the cat jumped on my lap!” That’s how I feel about every Katie Bakes column. Well, until she skewers me in one of them. And even then, I will probably enjoy it and it will only increase my platonic crush on her writing.
