I get what they’re going for, but that doesn’t change that they’re comments section is a toxic shit hole.

Now we’re all just waiting to read Portnoy’s complaint

I think they really want to evolve but they get a ton of push back when they do from their most loyal readers. Remember, the value in the business is in the loyalty of the followers in a demographic that most large media companies are having trouble reaching: males under 30. They can tweet “Saturdays are for the boys”…

it’s funny because while a small segment of the population is for Barstool, a smaller portion is against it. The largest segment of the population is like “who? what is that?”

“we appreciate the efforts of Big Cat”

“Well, that didn’t work. Guess we’ll have to try something that won’t glorify harassment as much instead.”

I’m guessing it’s internal dissent from a bunch of women at ESPN coupled with the stories last week about Barstool’s contract language and the continuing exposure of so many sexual harassers. They don’t want the headache. Too bad, because PMT is way better than Barstool.

Not long after Pardon My Take started, I checked out Barstool. I was a KSK fan from way back, and made the transition to Deadpsin after they folded. Barstool was/is a shit hole full of racist and sexist bros. So, I commented on a Big Cat tweet about how I loved the podcast but couldn’t handle Barstool’s shit house and…

Just want to point out they’re really doubling down on the awfulness now

How big must have the internal revolt gotten over the weekend for them to make this decision so suddenly? I mean there had already been several high profile objections to it before it even premiered, yet they still went ahead with it.

PMT needs to get the fuck out of Barstool sports. Their dipshit founder essentially cost them a TV show because he’s a child and cannot apologize or let something go

it’s bizarre for Skipper to say that he had hoped to keep the content of Barstool away from ESPN—the program had “Barstool” in the name!

Slightly surprised Skipper didn’t go full scorched earth and doxx PFT Commenter in his statement.
