Must Watch Barstool Sports FDNY & NYPD Hockey Documentary

The FDNY beat the NYPD 8-5 on the scoreboard tonight. Heroes outside the arena, legends on the ice. That was the tagline tweeted out by Barstool Sports to describe this amazing game. As a fellow New Yorker and as someone who has had friends and family in the FDNY, I know about this rivalry. Now thanks to Barstool Sports the whole country can get a taste.

It is both the most hated and most respected rivalry in sports and in life. You talk to either side of this rivalry the first thing out of their mouths are “I’m a fireman” or “I’m a policeman”. The pride each side has in their brotherhood is really on display in this game.

This is now the 6th straight win for the FDNY vs. their brothers in blue. I am not going to go into analysis I am sure you can watch the game on Barstool’s youtube. Just doing a quick little write up on the game being played and broadcasted to begin with. I will say it was the FDNY jumping out early. The NYPD fighting back and coming up just short. Stick around for the end of the game, the fights are epic.

I can’t end this blog without saying what an excellent job by Barstool Sports. The pregame, the call, the color, the post game all first class. This game will and should be an annual tradition for all hockey fans waiting for the playoffs. Whitney and Biz from Spittin Chiclets were so good on the call along with Jake Marsh. It was just so professional done, yet unbelievably entertaining. It sounds like a rant and probably not great English just a hell of a job by Barstool Sports.

A lot of the Twitterverse has said that Dave Portnoy is a racist because of his tweet calling LSU basketball player Angel Reese a piece of shit and classless.

Classless piece of shit https://t.co/e2qo7g5iXi

I mean there is no doubt that he did call her that. Does that mean he is racist though? People are claiming that he celebrated Caitlyn Clark for doing the same thing, but was it the same thing? In my opinion, one was during the middle of the game when shit talking is always prevalent. What Reese did was when the game was all but over and even after the whistle. You can be the judge for yourself if that was the same thing or not.

No not even close. Are you brain dead. #classless Angel Reese basically chased the best player in the game to the locker room to taunt her. https://t.co/LS2rINw8iV

If you think that both of those “you can’t see me” gestures are the same, does that make Dave Portnoy racist; or does it make him a gambler that was pissed off he lost a bet? Is it actually sexist of people calling him a racist because he bashed a black female basketball player? Look at the track record of El Pres. He bashes everyone regardless of skin color, sex, religion, if he has a bet on the other side. Nobody bats an eye when he makes comments about a man, regardless of race. But this comment becomes an issue because she was a woman?

Also I have dog in this fight. I didn't go to Iowa or LSU. It didn't matter to me who won this game one iota. I just like to see good clean classy basketball. *

Women want equal rights when it comes to sports and how they are covered. Should fans not treat them the same way they treat the guys? I am not saying calling even a man a piece of shit is right, but let’s not be naive it happens thousands of times a game; whether it is just a rival player or if someone has money on the other side. I think Dave is just an equal opportunity hater on whoever he is against in gambling or his favorite teams, ask Goodell.

Take a second. If you actually listen to his explanation and not jump to conclusions, form your own opinion without the race baiting. I personally think that the headline Dave Portnoy is Racist is lazy, but it will get a lot more clicks than Degenerate Gambler Bashes LSU Player.
