Back in May, ESPN fired Bill Simmons unexpectedly, thus forcing sports fans everywhere (read: Boston) to go to Gisele Bundchen’s Twitter page in order to read the boastful ramblings of someone who regularly fellates Tom Brady. We kid Simmons, but he’s really one of the funniest and most insightful sports journalists working today, and he deserved better than to be unceremoniously canned in very public fashion. Now, ESPN has twisted the knife by shutting down Grantland, the irreverent sports and pop culture site that Simmons created in 2011. Many of the site’s writers stated that they found out they’d been laid off only when they saw the network’s tweets about the site being suspended. In a statement, ESPN said that it plans to honor the contracts of all current Grantland writers and hopes to hire many of them to write for other ESPN platforms. So while several casualties of the move have lamented the end of the site, most of them have kept any outrage they may be feeling in check. But not Simmons: “I loved everyone I worked with at G and loved what we built. Watching good/kind/talented people get treated so callously = simply appalling,” Simmons tweeted moments ago. The 46-year-old journalist has butted heads with ESPN many times over the course of his career. He was most recently suspended by the network last year for calling NFL commissioner Roger Goodell a “liar.” His termination a few months later is believed to be the result of his tense relationship with network brass. In a statement, ESPN claimed that the decision to shut down Grantland has nothing to do with Simmons or the nature of the site’s content, but was simply a result of the need to “direct our time and energy going forward to projects that we believe will have a broader and more significant impact across our enterprise.” We’re sure Simmons will have more to say on the topic in the very near future.

The beloved 2004 comedy Mean Girls featured a memorable voice-over about the great lengths that some women will go to make themselves the center of attention on Halloween. Lindsay Lohan was in that movie, but she probably can’t remember her middle name most of the time, so it’s not surprising that she didn’t learn anything from her own dialogue. Lindsay showed up to a Halloween party in London dressed in the most ridiculous costume she could imagine. That’s right – she went as Engaged Lindsay Lohan and rocked a giant diamond on her left ring-finger. “She has lost her mind,” a source close to the actress told Page Six. “She did it as a joke for her friends and wanted to see what people would do or say.” Haha, it’s a joke, guys! Just like all those other times Lindsay tried to make us think she was engaged ! Seriously though, Lindsay’s bids for publicity have been getting more and more desperate lately, and we’re beginning to worry that she’s actually serious about running for president in 2020 . Clearly, she’s bonkers enough to think she really has a chance, and her social media posts have slowly been more political than ever lately. Granted, Lindsay is still expressing her fondness for Columbian drug lords on Instagram, so she’s a little confused when it comes to foreign policy, but so are a lot of other candidates. Anyway, Lindsay is not engaged, she’s probably not even dating anyone, and she showed up to a party in the most unoriginal costume imaginable (“The hardcore girls just wear lingerie and some form of animal ears.”) hoping everyone would be all, “OMG, we love your fiance’s Invisible Man costume!” We’re starting to think the blood trickling from the corner of her mouth might not be fake.

Khloe Kardashian Still Dating James Harden Even though she cares about Lamar’s well-being …Khloe Kardashian isn’t letting a little thing like her husband’s near-death experience stop her from getting it popping with the latest baller in her life.

He’s been so understanding and he knows that Khloe’s love for Lamar is deeper than what most people can understand,” a source tells us. “He’s been very understanding and supportive. Lamar has a long road ahead of him and Khloe will always have the love she has for Lamar.” Harden in apparently just playing his part while things pan out… Despite that, Harden—who is also focused on gearing up for the Houston Rockets’ first game of the 2015-16 NBA season—has remained committed to his relationship with her. Khloe explained in her People interview she is very much aware of how the situation with Lamar complicates her other relationship, but she’s grateful for Harden’s understanding, support and love during this trying time. “He’s been great with me, and I’m just allowing everything to unfold,” she told the magazine. “If it’s ever too overwhelming [for him], then I understand that as well.” So how exactly does this work??
