October 12, 20214 yr What a stupid manchild WSD is. Typical Barstool tho. Let Cusack root for whoever the fuck he wants. And then to keep this going on twitter today, come on. John not coming off great either but WSD is really enjoying his moment in the mud.
October 12, 20214 yr I was once at a game years ago where they showed Cusack sitting in one of the luxury boxes....he was resoundingly booed.

Do you understand how his idiocy plays into the whole Barstool personality "world"? No, you don't. The guy is a laughingstock at the company...considered a hardo. The fact this hardo Sox fan idiot got into it with John Cusack over who is a better fan is fucking comedy gold. It's not the interaction, it's the way the interaction plays into the whole Barstool "show" and feeds the WSD narrative. Edited October 12, 20214 yr by mmmmmbeeer

Barstool has perfected the “People who hate us the most will always be our best content sharers” strategy and it works like a charm. This is what Barstool wants. They capitalize on these moments better than anyone out there.
October 12, 20214 yr It was pretty funny when Cusack got booed mercilessly at Comiskey in 2008. This thing is pure Southside meatball though.

And then to keep this going on twitter today, come on. John not coming off great either but WSD is really enjoying his moment in the mud. His whole banned list is just a running joke, it's not like he was looking to pick a fight with him. He has explained multiple times today and thought Cusack was going to play along with it but he kind of took it seriously and it threw Dave off The whole company was talking about it and promoting it online, even Portnoy has had multiple tweets. You may not like it but Dave has given more eye balls to this Sox in the past couple years than most people
October 12, 20214 yr Kinda surprised to see Cusack take the bait on this one. Just ignore it and move on man
October 12, 20214 yr Author strong takes in this thread, love it. I don't mind certain elements of Bar Stool but as Tony noted they have perfected the old Jim Rome style of "say it loud, say it proud" and let the chips fall where they will.
October 12, 20214 yr Whether you like WSD or not, John Cusak is the definition of a bandwagoner and we don’t have to like him pretending to be Sox fan when the spotlight is on Chicago.

I didn’t read his content before and won’t now. Just give your stupid point a rest already. Edited October 12, 20214 yr by The Beast

The spotlight wasn't on him though, he goes to games like a normal person. He isn't calling attention to himself about it. There are many casual fans in this city, celebrity and normal people, and there always will be. Hell, Michael Jordan has thrown first pitches out and been to many games on both sides of town and nobody hates him for it. It's dumb just let the guy enjoy the games

Being a bandwagoner is what I call fan fashion. You go to where you can be seen and root for any Chicago team. It's not such a bad thing. Fashion is just doing what everyone else is doing to be on some kind of hipster list. Hairstyles, tats, clothes, small dogs, the latest social media trend, whatever. I'll take a guy who likes baseball and roots for the Sox even if he's not a Sox fan any time over the rest of the fashionistas.

A collection of guys who decided they were going to act like college idiots for their entire lives. Many of us had college years but the majority graduated and grew up a bit.

People still get butthurt and can't acknowledge the good they do.

A collection of guys who decided they were going to act like college idiots for their entire lives. It's a damn shame how many people are missing out on some fucking hilarious content because of what they've read online about Barstool. Start with the "Pardon My Take" podcast (publishes M,W,F). Hilarious podcast, sports-centric, and one of the hosts, Big Cat, is a Chicago guy. Listen to that for a couple of weeks then come back and tell us how much misogynistic, racist, right-wing drivel you heard. It'll be a short post. Edited October 12, 20214 yr by mmmmmbeeer

You strike me as more of a deadspin guy
October 12, 20214 yr Maybe people don't like Barstool because, at some point, acting like you're still in high school just isn't funny anymore? This whole being a fan of juvenile idiots who make a living off of trolling people and being assholes will never make sense to me. Then again, I moved on from high school a long time ago.
