Just because they were both started by the same guy does not make one a replacement for the other. ESPN ran Grantland into the ground ages before The Ringer was even launched.
- woopwoop 5y agoIt was less than six months between Grantland shutting down and The Ringer starting, and less than a year between Simmons leaving and The Ringer starting. I was definitely not the only one who hoped The Ringer would continue what Grantland was. I do not have strong feelings about whose "fault" Grantland's failure was. I didn't intend for what I wrote to be an attack on Bill Simmons.
