Fills the gap of deadspin in its prime (2009-2010) with more tits and lowbrow, and better at social media and branding but not as conservative as outkickthecoverage

There are definitely some shitlibs in the mix. The main guys though are a pretty good representation of the normal guy.

It's kind of unfortunate, because it would be a good counterbalance, but he's just not charismatic enough nor as you note genuine enough.

It's amazing though because he still puts out stuff that has a market because he's the only one even trying to give a contrary voice.

Pardon My Take is great and has helped take it mainstream. The rest is kinda crap though Portnoy is kind of funny.

PMT will eventually realize they don't need Barstool and do their own thing the same way the "Pod Save America" guys left the Ringer.

Podcast with PFTcommenter (who started as just kind of a twitter guy, then went to SBnation, landed at barstool after that) and Big Cat (kind of just everyman midwest guy).

They're funny. The best podcast on sports and it's probably not really close. Mostly humor stuff, mixed with some actual sports opinions.

ESPN is going to get PMT. It is exactly the demo they have been trying to get.

Barstool has been less funny since it got neutered by its sale

They can't go to ESPN, ESPN would neuter them way too much and they know this.

I think ESPN is going to offer them a boatload of money and a TV time slot or radio show. They have been on ESPN a few times as co-hosts. Big Cat is close with SVP and I think BC's end game is to end up at one of the big networks and become one of the major guys there. Could be wrong, but Dan is pretty uncontroversial but it would suck if they went to ESPN and just became a younger version of Mike and Mike.

Apparently Big Cat owns part of Barstool, which is the only reason I could see them staying. Otherwise I hope they leave because the rest of Barstool sucks.

I find some of the stuff good. I watch the pizza reviews. I'll watch the rundown (though I really watch for Big Cat mostly). But when I think about it, it's really mostly the PMT guys stuff. Chaps can be funny from time to time, Donnie does has had some good stuff and I actually think Robbie Fox can be good for a kid who's like 19.
