I was in the same camp as you, and most of the time give athletes the benefit of the doubt—while also having generally more respect for the press than is typical around here—but in hindsight, maybe he has always just been a dick, and the Super Bowl pouting just happened to be after the biggest game of his career.

The guy is clearly an asshole, and I’m glad the nice guy façade is being peeled back week by week.

but it’s not clear why the QB, after already dealing with press conference controversies, would completely abandon the podium over that inquiry.

I enjoy watching Newton play and the butthurt it causes all the RIGHT WAY folks, but it’s pretty clear that quite a bit of the criticism leveled against him is accurate. He’s not terribly bright (writes his name on a stolen laptop) and his attitude towards Rodrigue was inexusable.

...do you guys chunky, do you guys chunky peanut butter, chunky peanut butter and jelly, jelly roll, peppermint roll...

Lonzo doesn’t necessarily deserve 82 games of torture

What health plans does she take?

I imagine the Sixers medical staff isn’t much different than my 3-year-old giving me a checkup in her Doc McStuffins coat.

He who laughs lat, laughs best. I remember when they all said Embiid would be a bust.

“Of course he was going to get injured; he was asking for it. Just look at how he was dressed—in a Sixers uniform.”

Considering it’s one of the most popular podcasts out there, the answer is millions of people

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?”

I’m just amazed that the actual pft commenters have only gotten worse since he started writing under the name.

Look at you, bragging about not losing your phone in a blackout.

Judging by his hyper (fragile) masculine persona, it’s hard to believe that’s physically achievable.

Skipper: “Let’s get this! The edginess and borderline inappropriateness will really appeal to the kids, who like sports and edginess!”

not defending barstool, but it’s amazing how ESPN has found a way to publicly and embarrassingly shoot its own dick off regarding nearly every major content and personnel decision over the past 18 months.

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.
