If we buried Bill Simmons with the last post of the day -- TFD stands for The Friscalating Dusklight, a reminder to all you Wes Anderson enthusiasts -- we have come to praise him tonight for an entertaining interview with the POTUS, Barack Obama. One thing that caught our attention in particular from the sit-down, which was transcribed:

BS: It's funny, because I always pictured you in bed pretending you were working but watching League Pass on your iPad — [laughter] — watching some West Coast game — [the] Sacramento Kings or something.

Obama: I do have League Pass on my iPad.

BS: You do?

Obama: Of course.

BS: Do you pay for it yourself or do you charge it to the White House?

Obama: No, I've got to pay for it myself. [Laughter.]

Do you feel better knowing Obama has League Pass on his iPad. We do.
