Maybe I’m alone, but I don’t quite get the appeal of Barstool.
February 19th, 2018 at 9:07 PM ^
You’re not alone.

I read the OP thinking there might be something of value contained therein. Guess I was punked.

Tuesdays are for high horse riding Mgobloggers.
February 19th, 2018 at 9:11 PM ^
...the appeal is the infantile, misogynist humor and hot takes.
That's a pretty solid foundation for a sports blog. Also why I f---ing hate it.
February 19th, 2018 at 10:13 PM ^
It’s OK to type the word “fucking.”
February 19th, 2018 at 10:37 PM ^
...didn’t want to accidentally scandalize any of the thoughtful ordained ministers that frequent this blog since they are the only other ones who upvote my posts about professional cycling.
February 19th, 2018 at 11:48 PM ^
but I'm fucking cool with it
February 20th, 2018 at 12:13 AM ^
I'm a fucking Pope, and I support profanity in the name of making a point.

Thoughtful but not ordained minister of the Church of Fuck Everything Ohio*.Founded it myself. Highest growth rate in religion anywhere. Going from one to five devotees, hell of an accomplishment if you ask me.
* excepting Charles Woodson.

Not enough shark-sex jokes for my taste.
Sorry, shark-fucking.
February 19th, 2018 at 11:42 PM ^
We talk about shark-fucking so much that I'm about to see what all the hype is about.
February 20th, 2018 at 10:40 AM ^
Thanks for letting all of us know that you're a safe space kind of guy.
February 20th, 2018 at 11:19 AM ^
Learned men prefer to come here and gain knowledge on important matters, such as our "ball of crap" football recruiting class.
February 19th, 2018 at 9:13 PM ^
That’s fair but it’s a good read even if you’re not a Stoolie.
February 19th, 2018 at 9:17 PM ^
I found it hard to read as the writing style was pretty awful from a narrative standpoint. I’m guessing it’s aimed at the “average joe”, but the style is hard to read. Would have been better as audio.
February 19th, 2018 at 9:51 PM ^
you mean drunk frat brah or immature meathead jock high schooler, then sure...
February 20th, 2018 at 12:00 AM ^
I read half the article and then stopped because I realized I had no fucking idea what was going on. Instructions were unclear, now my dick is caught in a celing fan.
Something, something, Gaz, yadda, yadda... Tex... remix of something... Any Given Sunday? Wtf is happening?
February 20th, 2018 at 7:36 AM ^
WTF is a Viceroy?
Did they just pick that term because they saw "vice" in it?
February 20th, 2018 at 4:16 PM ^
They likely picked 'Viceroy' because the word's definition fits the position.
February 19th, 2018 at 9:18 PM ^
Good read? It's just fucking cruel.
February 19th, 2018 at 10:42 PM ^
At the end there’s an add-on from the founder , Dave, who is a Michigan grad btw , that’s he’s going to give him a real interview since he took it so well.
Edit : I didn’t realize a bunch of other posters already pointed that out . To be honest , they have some
pretty good follows on twitter but yeah, I can understand to the criticism . Unfortunately for a lot of people here that don’t like them , Barstool is definitely not going away any time soon.
February 19th, 2018 at 9:19 PM ^
Pardon My Take can be great on occasion, other than that there’s not much going for it. If you read the end of the article, apparently the guy might actually get a job at barstool because of this, which would be quite the self-own.
February 19th, 2018 at 10:49 PM ^
I'm actually surprised there are as many people who seem to find any appeal to it.
February 20th, 2018 at 7:48 AM ^
February 20th, 2018 at 12:24 PM ^
I'm not. Unfortunately, there is a growing cottage industry bent on appealing to the lowest common denominator of media consumer, cloaked in the ethos of pushing back against political correctness. Of course, it's really just guys being louts.
Coming soon to a network near you, the new hit TV program, "Ow, My Balls!" and the adminstration of President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho.
"Idiocracy" isn't fiction, it's prophecy...

Waiting for the “I didnt realize....” post.
February 19th, 2018 at 9:05 PM ^
He’s actually getting an interview now wccodinto El Pres.
February 19th, 2018 at 9:06 PM ^
according*
February 20th, 2018 at 1:20 AM ^
You really need to fix your auto-correct.
February 19th, 2018 at 9:11 PM ^
Reminds me of the time one of the OSU football players made Jerrod Wilson's GF their "woman crush Wednesday" the week of The Game.
Fuckin ice cold, but also hilarious.
February 19th, 2018 at 9:11 PM ^
You got to be one uhh naive individual to fall for that. Sounds about right that he's a Buckeye.
February 20th, 2018 at 7:49 AM ^
Especially since he seems like the kind of dude where this has happened to him before.
February 19th, 2018 at 9:11 PM ^
It's getting him press in a good way. I never heard of him before today plus those are some cute girls he's getting a kiss from. I wonder why he's getting the bird from the girl behind him.
February 19th, 2018 at 9:16 PM ^
Barstool is for douchebros
February 19th, 2018 at 9:24 PM ^
Isn't that Portnoy guy a UM grad?
February 19th, 2018 at 9:25 PM ^
Embarassingly, yes.
February 19th, 2018 at 9:37 PM ^
He must be happy that the Unabomber exists, so that he's not seen as the worst member of the alumni to become famous.
February 19th, 2018 at 9:41 PM ^

you are a touch quicker on the Jeopardy buzzer
February 19th, 2018 at 9:53 PM ^
Shit. Never knew that he went to Mich.
February 19th, 2018 at 9:42 PM ^
unless we're sticking to Modern Era
February 19th, 2018 at 9:55 PM ^
what No leopold and Leob love?
February 19th, 2018 at 10:25 PM ^
was it Leopold or Loeb that was the youngest UM grad ever (at the time)?
(BTW this mini-thread is a better idea than the main one)
February 20th, 2018 at 3:04 AM ^
Loeb graduated from UM at 17. Leopold went to UChicago. Both were prodigies apparently.
