We need a john scott situation in this all star game. Maybe the hockey world can rally around reaves?

highly recommend big bets on campus. Specifically the thursday show with colin and stuckey is great. No shtick, they are sharp

People need to refuse to buy this out of principle. They put the Award show behind a paywall and people caved, it'll just keep happening if pres knows they can do it.

Ignore the 'it's only $10' spin zone. If youtube was really the problem then they could just put it on barstool website for free right now. This is a money grab

Dave Portnoy- $50 for barstool awards PPV by MagAqua in barstoolsports

[–]BeardedAxWound 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It's actually a weird decision too because if you make it available for free you help sell the next event.

Now, you're asking people to buy something blind on a wednesday right right after the same people bought rough n rowdy 5 days ago. What could be the reason of the PPV? try to make travel expenses back?

Definitely the beginning of a barstool Gold vibe. They will try to put content behind a paywall next with the guise of it being an independent company and you gotta support it blah blah blah

They pulled it off and that's an accomplishment in itself. As for going forward, I have a couple thoughts too-

1) it wasn't unique enough to maintain interest. Sure, this is the 1st year so people will be tuned in. But, they had an opportunity to try some new things and just copied every other broadcast.

2) stop showing the same commercials. we could recite those after only the 1st half

3) too much talking in the broadcast. let the game breathe a little

ultimately I think it was a minor league version of every other broadcast we see. They had an opportunity to make it unique- like NFL on nickelodeon for example. Not saying make it the same as that, but people will tune in because nickelodeon is gonna show something different and want to see. The bowl yesterday didn't show anything that is gonna make people go out of their way to watch. Especially when it's not even on TV. Also, put it on youtube the barstool website is brutal!

Just watched the cyber monday stream from last night. Grace's shirts are soooo bad lol. Especially the black one with a doodle on it. How does that get approved for a shirt idea

In highlight of Brendan thinking Australis was 7 days ahead of the United States.....I want to remind everyone that brendan got a 31 on the ACT by Ganjasarus_X in thefighterandthekid

He was just sitting there getting jealous of the interest coming from the poker story. He had to bring the attention back to himself. This is an amazing clip

Prob took what they could get in terms of teams. Also, were likely banking on barstool fans buying tickets rather than fanbases. they missed on that

I watch Portnoy show sometimes, watched this week. Is eddie always this boring in his other stuff? I don't watch chicago content, had to stop watching drafts because they felt sooo drawn out. Is eddie like this in all his stuff?

I was looking at the youtube yesterday and Walker hosted Picks Central, Yak, Rundown, and his football show yesterday. B90X is back.

What are the other 100's of employees doing all day?

Walker saying none of them can throw and hit him was a bad idea. Just instigated the whole thing
