You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain. In the year 2023 Barstool Sports Died. The once juggernaut of counterculture sports and comedy has been killed from the inside. It truly now is all about the money and nothing else matters.
Anything for clicks, right Gaz? The above tweet is the type of terrible content that has been coming out of Barstool this year. It is fucking embarrassing. They also have the barstool beast, barstools employee of the month program, WTF!! Coroporate bullshit.
This is part of why Barstool Died in 2023. The other reason was the sale of Barstool to PENN. It is not Barstool Sports anymore, it is PENN Entertainment.
Jay Snowden is a bitch and this is how you get fired now at barstool sports since Dave sold out.
For reading lyrics off of a card and mistakenly dropping the N bomb as a white person. Let me be clear it was A not ER and again it was lyrics. Penn Entertainment fires you for this. Like Really? Fuck Penn. Dave literally did the same shit. This is the same PC, Woke, everyone is offended by everything bullshit Barstool has fought against.
Dave was able to fight to prove he wasn’t racists and saying a lyric in a rap song doesn’t make you a bad person. This is literally the same exact situation except there is no more Barstool sports. Barstool Sports Died and Penn Entertainment is now in charge. They have stock holders and quarterly numbers they have to hit. Cancel culture can actually get to the billion dollar corporation like it never could the old Barstool Sports.
With that deal signed above Barstool Sports Died. They are now just like every other PC corporation in media. Barstool is just being used for their name and talents by PENN. I don’t blame Dave for selling out by the way. Make your money and do you.
Watch this KFC Radio episode at the beginning. This is how every old school stoolie, like myself feels.
I think all the old school guys and girls at Barstool saw these changes coming. Big Cat is taking his crew and his guys to Chicago. KFC Radio with Kevin and Feits, lay it out in the episode above that they don’t agree and it doesn’t really effect them. You never see Caleb Presley in the office. The Foreplay boys are never there, Riggs is always somewhere else. The Bussin Boys are in Nashville. There is a common theme here. All the successful pods and shows are just doing their own thing. Contracts are over for some people soon, I wonder what will happen?
