Bill Simmons and ESPN couldn't come to an agreement on a new contract, so the famous writer will be leaving the network when his contract expires in September.

Unless something new has happened, he isn't fired. He is still under contract until September, he just won't be renewing it.

I'm sure we'll see him somewhere. Maybe he'll go off on his own and start his own projects under his own terms. That would be a good idea imo.
