New York Post ranks @stoolpresidente as 10th most powerful person in sports media for 2023.
"Barstool has to be in the top 10. Though it is still making its name with insurgent tendencies, it is mainstream. ... It is hard to argue that the Barstool business is not interesting."
Today marks the 30th Sports Equinox ever where all 4 men's U.S. major pro sports will play on the same day.

New post for 75 Adams Street — A quasi oral history on "Barstool Van Talk" on its 6th anniversary.
—@erika_: One of the interesting things about this partnership is everybody took a lot of shrapnel in it. ESPN took a lot of internal shrapnel and general media noise and we took a lot of shrapnel from Stoolies regarding selling out and questioning how we could work with ESPN.
—@BarstoolBigCat: This idea that my success needed to be validated by television is silly now looking back. If you told me tomorrow you can have a show on ESPN, I would say ‘Absolutely not. I don’t want it.’

—@stoolpresidente: We will suffer a couple setbacks, we’ll take a couple Ls, but it just makes us stronger, stronger, stronger, because we’re not changing.
—@PFTCommenter: It was something that was uncomfortable for me at the time, but even in the moment, I still saw how hilarious it was that I’ve worked for so long, the last seven, eight years, went out on my own, grinded, end up getting to the point where you get a gig on ESPN and then we’re fired after one show. That’s funny. That’s fucking funny.
