Recently whenever I try to click on an older Simmons article on ESPN.com the text will pop up momentarily and then the page will immediately blink into the ESPN search page with a NOT FOUND message emblazoned on the middle of it. Is there an archive somewhere, or a way to access 2001-2011 Simmons Columns that I'm not aware of? Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

On Twitter tonight a number of different people mentioned that Doc Rivers and referee Bill Kennedy have had a long, acrimonious history together: some people even claimed that Kennedy has a clear vendetta against him. Does anyone know the backstory here? I follow the nba pretty closely but I've never heard of this until tonight.
