JD and the Straight Shot Lie No Better LIVE

[drag64fury]

Hey, give this guy a break - he's actually pretty good!

[ttsimpson28]

This is the worst thing ever. Worse than AIDS and ball cancer.

[videogamejo]

It scares me that he's in charge of the knicks..

[TheSvperstar]

why does everyone hate dolan

[videogamejo]

Dolan is such a tool. I swear if he screws the knicks up and messes with what Walsh built, I'm going to whip his autotune ass

I can't believe he got rid of Walsh, he's the reason that the knicks are back in relevancy. Dolan is braindamaged and he's going to screw the knicks up.

[demoncleaner45]

wow what a fucking tool...

[csabin17]

FUCK YOUUU

[damndirtylespaul]

these poor bastards that have this gig have to deal with this rich idiot trying to sing. Run the Knicks and Rangers into the ground, but please, what did music ever do to you Jimmy?

[ShadowZIsGod]

This was great. Seriously. Dolan should seriously think about quitting his day job and taking up singing full time.

[FrankusDomesticus]

Dumb fucker.

[bublitchki]

Now we're talking.

The blues doesn't get any more authentic than watching the spoiled heir to a cable TV fortune singing tunelessly in front of musicians who were hired as much for their ability not to snicker as for their musical abilities.

[wizardssleeve]

You fucking suck, Dolan.

[unkomannn]

what a clown.

[d0ug]

James Dolan is an even worse musician than he is a basketball executive. The only thing that keeps this band together is his daddy's money.

[Rainergunvikes]

Music died a little

[flimflam94]

Jimmy Dolan is a piece of shit

[mdawg728]

simmons

[hankee18]

Dolan, you ran Nobody Beats the Wiz, then The Wiz into the ground. You're only rich because idiots pay for your crap cable service...you're killin my favorite franchise...I can't wait to root for the Brooklyn Nets! You fuckin suck at singin dude!

[redheller]

FUCK DOLAN

[cjsolx]

BTW, he looks ridiculous.. But he doesn't sound terrible. Not good, just not terrible. The musicians are good and the chick bails him out.. It coulda worked out.

[cjsolx]

Bill Simmons

[loevy57k]

Simmons is awesome! laugh to death hahahah

[jucrew1]

Fuck You Dolan!......................Si­mmons

[larsondjs]

Oh my...

[BlackMajik]

Best thing about this clip? The fact that the first three comments I see are all from Bill Simmons.

Also this is terrible.

[SensitiveSkinTV]

Please, PLEASE sell the Knicks, JD! You need to concentrate on the music, man!

[texasdittmar]

Simmons

[Omagus]

Simmons.

[fbeans99]

Holy jeez. Seriously, just watch a recording of ANYTHING you do Dolan, and you will have a chance to know what we know.  It's not pretty.

[darkrosewebmaster]

Can I have my 4 minutes back?

[meatbeatca]

Simmons

[TheCookly]

good band, horrendous lead vocals

[pinkeoan]

what a douche. he sucks

[sugashane2386]

It's funny because JD is lying straight to our face by pretending he is a good singer. Stop telling lies, JD.

[Joho16]

Bill Simmons....right on the mark once again!

[yade12]

OMFG I hate people like this. That think they are very good at something and they suck.

I feel sorry for New York fans. There is nothing worse than having an owner that thinks he is the shit and that doesnt realize he is shit.

[qzmwzz]

simmons

[jlemaire22]

This video has led me to accept that I may die b4 the Knicks ever win a championship again.

[cameronhylander]

Joe has no "truth in his guitar"'. Yes, that's evidence that i made it past the 3 minute mark.

[djtranscend]

This is more Blues than Jazz but Simmons is brilliant. JD is awkward on stage and thinks he's got a deep connection to his music. The video is an over-produced attempt at being hip.

[Krazee84]

This is still better than most of that stuff you hear on the radio (in my opinion)...

[marc44106]

To the people saying he's an good singer -- fail. He's as good as your better karaoke friends, that's it. He couldn't make it to the second round on American Idol. Don't compare him to hot girls who can't sing but get hits Autotuned for them by rich producers. Compare him to actual jazz singers.

[marc44106]

[samsternjones]

This guy is a living advertisement for the inheritance tax.

[wizolf12]

We want Cuban!

[jagemobe]

the only thing that makes him seem bad is that he thinks he's so good, apparently. He's alright...somewhat melodious if a bit off sometimes.

[tompetro3]

Mook

[tompetro3]

This guy is a moo

[tompetro3]

layoff the doughnuts JD

[redskullz124]

What this video tells me about Bill Simmons is that he has no clue what Jazz is.

[toytrain5]

god awful. the musicians should have just said "i won't do this, i have some pride".

[kal5108]

SIMMONS.... that SOB dolan is a better singer than 95% of those on the radio right now... how sad is that for the state of popular music

[deepfried13]

You guys are looking at this all wrong, the best thing in the world would be is if this band made it, then dolan could say 'hey, i have a successful band, i no longer need to use madison square garden as my personal handkerchief and infect the entire city of new york with my rage filled failure.' This is how we get the knicks back. the second 'lie no better' plays on the radio we start winning again, of course this also means all music will have to take a 10 year hiatus, so it's a toss up

[madhatter762]

@deepfried13 Right now, James Dolan sees the views skyrocketing on his youtube songs and probably thinks we love his music.

[carry2outz]

Only way this is better, is if that's Daryl Hannah . . .

[cyrus0007]

This guy is the owners of both the Knicks and Rangers? HAHAHAHAHAHA

Simmons.

[UH60Pilot]

Fuck Jimmy Dolan, little fuck up

[billsfn]

please define "hit" in this instance.

[mrm87]

Thanks Simmons. 3:45 of my life I'll never get back!

[145garbageman]

Simmons says:

"Let's say I retired in 20 years and turned this column over to my son, but he couldn't write and didn't know anything about sports. You would think this was weird."

No, actually, I would think it was very fitting. It's called genetics, "sports guy"... you should look into it.

[deezstack]

@145garbageman you still read his column and follow the links in spite of that?

[145garbageman]

@deezstack

yeah, his articles are so bad, they're kind of entertaining...sort of like this performance.

[edil2k]

I laughed for about 20 seconds, but then I started getting a headache and had to stop watching.....so painful!!! Blame Simmons!

[usmclown420]

simmons

[vino43]

this is literally laugh out loud funny. I once had a fat, ignorant, immature construction inspector that would throw tantrums if he didn't get his way. This is him behind a mic. In the "Newman" voice from Seinfeld.....SIMMONS!

[fattystools]

Damn you Bill Simmons. That's 3 minutes and 45 seconds of my life I'll never get back...lol Although the band is good and the blonde is pretty hot. Who's the weak link in this chain? 8>)

[cedmelancon]

Sports guy!

[Kdogdude26]

Thank God he doesn't own the Lakers !

[JayBassoon]

Irony is, for the last 10 years, he's got Knicks' fans everywhere singin' the blues right along with him. Has all this been a cruel campaign to pull off the worst joke in sports' franchise history? Dude, if you can't lie no better'n that. . .

[cfrancis63]

damn you simmons!

[notsankofa]

Bill Simmons made me do it.

[bigbeareric]

That's 4 minutes of my life I'll never get back.

[MyMudkipz]

Simmons.

[panic43]

Worst. Owner. Ever.

[decompressionchamber]

awes9me. music from the soul. lets see what all you whining simmons complaining doo dee heads can come up with.

[jgil584]

jazz? this is borderline country (i love the former and hate the latter). Again, thank you BS

[SuperNewmex]

This looks like bad karaoke.

[JakeAkinSucks]

I love Bill Simmons.

[cprone]

What exactly qualifies as a "hit". Somehow I don't think this was really a hit.

[mitchyboi33]

Simmons



[stoneydanyahoo]

bill simmons was here

[gw99]

Thanks Simmons....WOW is that terrible. I knew Dolan was a dolt but this is beyond. Hilarious!

[josephspeedracer]

Thanks Simmons. Great clip. Way too funny.

[whiba]

Thanks to simmons for the Best video ever! :)

If Dolan can play guitar, he needs to always have on one him when he performs. A singer-only frontman has to have a certain charisma to not look awkward standing up there with only a microphone. And Dolan has so little charisma it actually goes negative on the chart. Strap on a guitar, Jimmy D, maybe it'll help you at least look like you don't suck. And will prevent you from having to attempt to dance Will also cover up the belly, and make yo

[ndowney]

thanks simmons...this is laughably horrible

[johnsteinbroner]

this is off the unintentional comedy scale!! I think it must now be measured in Dolan's!!! I finally feel sorry for Knicks fans!!

[angrydwarfofdoom]

It's funny and pathetic at the same time...he sucks, but he has absolutely no idea HOW MUCH he can't do this. Part of me wants to laugh, and part of me wants to politely take him aside. Of course, doing the latter wouldn't work, so I think I"ll just laugh :) P.S. You got some truth in 'dat guitar??? Seriously???

[unkyherb]

@angrydwarfofdoom "you got some truth in dat guitar?" "I know you do"

hahaha, that was my favorite part.  i'm glad i wasn't the only one

[FitzysFotography]

hahahahaha Simmons

[BobbyA1985]

I feel bad for the professional musicians who swallowed their pride and took the paycheck to play for this hack.

[KBomber44]

Simmons -- I love you man -- suddenly being a Toronto Raptors fan doesn't seem so bad....ROFLMAO...

[neilganderson]

K-N-I-C-K-S. I think my ears are bleeding.

[afuzilla]

Damn you SIMMONS!

[geeisthisnametaken]

Just stabbed a fork in each eye and strangely I feel relieved.

[kasuskel]

simmons



[PNYZV]

Holy sh*t r u f*ckin kiddin me. My poor, poor, poor, poor Knicks....

[AAKingC]

Simmons

[cnevels05]

this is literally the worst thing i have ever seen.

[dshay7]

For the guy that said, "at least he's getting up on stage doing what he loves".....do you realize that there's not even a CROWD there??? This is totally just some empty studio and he's decided to spend tons of money recording it like a music video. Lame. And kind of sad. I'd be surprised if people would actually pay money to listen to this. Good luck to him finding a venue that would book him for a gig, unless he owned it. He sounds like bad karaoke, only worse. Dang simmons.

[nydude2]

@dshay7 the problem is that this stupid shit can find a venue that would hold his concert...Madison Square Garden! Of course he'll hold it hostage and force his employees to attend...but he can get a place to play and people to show up. Then the asshole will say that he played MSG just like all the music greats have.

[nydude2]

as a life long knicks fan I would like to say that nothing would have made me happier then to see the lights fall on his head and end this reign of terror over a great franchise!!!!

Thanks Simmons for this reminder that my favorite basketball team is owned by a complete moron...and an aweful singer

[bosox229]

yep, simmons coupled with this should just about seal the deal for a dolan-aniston hookup in the near future

[maitlanr]

that girl with the hat is an idiot

[1JAT1]

its funny how he says "grinning that stupid grin" but doesnt realize that he has the stupidest grin ive ever seen

[jonenm18]

Simmons

[smass]

Simmons. Dolan is the anti-christ - and I am a Celtics fan. Truth is truth...

[LeonidasLuth]

thanks for this great musical performance simmons...not

[joryrand]

Hell, give the guy credit for getting up on stage and doing something he enjoys. The suckers are the ones who would sit through this.And the band.... And me for watching, Damn you Simmons!!!

[MrMachinus]

Wow, he fucking sucks!

[Dwint94]

simmons



[jhawk53]

Thumbs up for Simmons.

[taurusfreeman]

Simmons

[ds102]

Simmons.

[richyrich658]

Simmons, you owe Groctarts a prize for posting a comment a week ago. The only person on the planet who viewed this steaming pile of crap before your piece. Thanks for giving us a voice to deride this stupid, self-absorbed azzhole. how much do you think his wife cheats on him??????

[dfuller81]

the band deserves credit for holding in their laughter...amazing

[ensane7]

You don't deserve the Knicks.

[jfolg23]

Simmons, another classic link. LMAO

[pmck82]

Jesus, look at this joker. If I was running two professional sports teams, I'd cut out this bullshit. But then again, I'm not a moron.

[bangaway]

thanks simmons .... that chick is hot though

[tonip420]

wow......just......wow

[spacemandewey]

excuse me...I'm on the Subway Fresh Take Hotline.

[randomguy1080]

simmoned

[platt1978]

what a fu**in idiot...i was dying for Isiah to come in for a solo

[broyalk]

Simmons. Hey, at least the lyrics rhyme.

[wilcox24]

how can this guy own a billion dollar sports team?

[c6872]

I swear I thought this was karaoke when I heard his voice

[17supersid]

Simmons

[MattGustafson]

"... like a rusty steak knife, cutting through a well-aged steak...."

[gfthree7]

Simmons..... LMFAO!

[Vocalkiller]

simmons!

[srschne]

what a no-talent assclown douchebag. this is off the scale for unintentional comedy

[shotcaller130]

simmons once again

[bulls908]

simmons!

[pepperjack91]

I like the corny way he points at his watch and then his mouth.

[jams682006]

simmons



[Jadewagon]

The only reason he's worse than Chris Cohan is:

At least Cohan eventually sold the Warriors.

[idisagreewiththat]

@Jadewagon I'm nodding my head vigorously.

[hawley808]

He says "I smell some other man all over your cashmere sweater". Why does he know what other men smell like? Is it someone he knows or just a random dude? I can't take it anymore damn it.

[hawley808]

This is a perfect better scenario. Over/under on 2 minutes.

[hawley808]

So this is what torture feels like. Thanks Simmons

[dbizzler]

SIMMONS

[hawley808]

So this is what torture feels like.

[pajaha1]

Douche chills...

Simmons!!

[hawley808]

Douche chills! haha!

[repr3hensible]

Simmons

[markimoooo]

classic Never Gonna Make It band!

[nemishh]

simmons

[lshocket]

So is James Dolan the singer?

[rogerdaltrey]

Bill Simmons!

[CatButler66]

Wow I was reading Simmons column, saw the picture and thought the guy looked just like the lame douche who warmed up for the Eagles tour this year. Turns out he was.

[DieHardYank6]

hahahahahah simmons!

[uaalii]

Love that all the musicians are wearing the funky clothes appropriate for the setting and genre of music, and Dolan looks like he just came from a casual Friday meeting at the office.

[wacomofo]

lmao simmons

[InsightHSMinistry]

Love when he yells out "Hey Joe, is there any truth in that guitar?"

[aerojovi83]

SIMMONS

[gobosox3424]

hahaha simmons.

[apoplecticus]

Beyond that awful Grin-Gin rhyme, this song isn't half bad. I wonder if Charles Dolan actually spoke all of this song aloud when James was in prep school!

[LukePWuellner]

Did he just rhyme 'sweater' with 'better'? Why yes he did.

[ChauncefordBillups]

simmons

[Ichiro20]

oh my god. this is dreadful. SIMMONS 

[drknowhr]

wow...this sucks

[lpfunk44]

oh yeah... this guy owns the Knicks. i just threw up in my mouth.

[lpfunk44]

good work, simmons!

[steed3902]

simmons YO.....Dolan sucks!

[smoura2000]

holy cow...those musicians must just cringe that they are online backing a dude with no voice or feel for music...

Love me some Simmons!!

[supad81]

HAHAHAHA go ny go ny go!

[guarrjos]

Simmons!

[jsawyer93]

I wish I inherited unlimited money from my dad.

SIMMONS

[ccwmiaborn]

Oh my goodness - this is a joke, right?

And yeah, got here because of the Bill Simmons article, but, wow...

You're in good hands, Knick fans!

[thehmystery]

SIMMONS!!!!!!

[Irishguy45]

To quote Slap Shot: "These guys are a fucking disgrace!"

[tairygreene16]

the saddest thing about this music is that knicks fans would (probably) rather listen to it than watch their team play.

SIMMONS!!
