From the Simmons Mailbag:

Q: I would have thought that after “Phone Booth,” “SWAT,” “The Recruit,” and “Daredevil” people would realize every single movie Colin Farrell has even appeared in is terrible. For some displicable reason, Hollywood kept giving him more money and bigger roles (”Miami Vice,” “Alexander,” etc.) Hence the Colin Farrell Rule: No matter how bad all Colin Farrell movies are, Hollywood studios will insist on giving him leading roles and huge paydays. Who is the Colin Farrell of the NBA?
– Murph, New York

SG: Has to be Stephon Marbury, right? Twelve NBA seasons, four playoff appearances, 18 career playoff games, zero playoff series wins, four different teams that were excited to acquire him, four teams that were excited to trade him, nearly $132 million earned (with another $21 million coming next season) and, if that’s not enough, he was the starting point guard for the Nightmare Team in the 2004 Olympics. Did I leave anything out? You know it’s a good comparison because it’s hard to tell who should be more insulted — Farrell or Marbury.
