Especially having signed a 3 year deal in November. But grave dancing here by Ogie's guy seems a bit counter productive.

Yeah, I'm sure he's broken up about getting made fun of by a guy who helped create a popular blog.

I'm starting to doubt your story that you just like Pardon My Take and not the entire Barstool universe.

substance abuse does explain how he could have thought greenlighting a show with barstool branding was a initially a good idea for his SJW friendly company

They've converted me.

I will say that I can certainly see why guys like Portnoy would not appeal to the masses whereas PMT does.

the grave dancing is more because he is the person who made the direct decision to cancel BVT, so this one is personal.

This story has gone crazy fast. Apparently his substance abuse problem is cocaine and one of his dealers was going to extort him.

Here's the thing that blows my mind. The guy is actually admitting to cocaine use. Why is he and his dealer not in jail?

Funny, but true in a way.

Absolutely true.

If he was black and his drug was crack, you know he'd be in jail.

It's whack!








Sorry.

Its true though, right? I mean, he admits to usage. He has the name of an actual dealer. No one has been arrested yet. Not even a mention of it.

Long article with lots of good inside stuff on Iger and Skipper and the internal political debate. The charts and graphs are good if you just want to skim. Essentially, the subscriber base is down 16 million in seven years.
