Video B.S. Report Archive: Bill Simmons and Flea

By Bill Simmons



At some point later today, we'll be posting my NBA playoff preview column. Why? I don't know. It's not like I have any credibility left. During a podcast with Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea (a die-hard Lakers fan), we were arguing about the Lakers and Clippers when Flea objected to my prediction of a less-than-stellar 2012 Lakers season. We went back and forth. A bet was made.

A bet that … I lost.

A bet that … makes me physically ill.

A bet that … I guess I'm going to have to pay off, as much as it kills me.

Watch the clip if you want to see what it is.
