ESPN Gives Barstool hosts TV Show, promptly cancels

[UCF w00t]

Last Tuesday night, ESPN premiered "Barstool Van Talk" at 1AM on ESPN2. Sam Ponder was pissed and went on a twitter rampage against it, not because of the people directly affiliated with the show but because of Barstool Sports as a whole and Dave Portnoy, the founder of Barstool. It was always a questionable partnership but I'm surprised they weren't even given two episodes. SJWs win again.

a 1am show that likely no one will watch and the sjw went crazy about it. typical snowflakes

big mistake by ESPN

there is a big opening for beer drinking sports fans that want to watch/dvr a show to have some good laughs

instead they'll have Jemele report what LeBron liked on Instagram this morning for the next 8 months

We're seeing the beginning of censorship in media, because of lawyers combined with political correctness, and the media now extends to everything on-line.

In 20 years, we Gen-X'ers will talking about how the death of the 1st Amendment came to be. Millennials will call us "racist/sexist old farts" for it too.

millennials will be the death of the 1st amend

millennials will be the death of the 1st amend

Well, we in Gen X helped set them up. It's the media run by our generation that is causing a lot of the issues.

Listened for the first time today. I learned D Wade likes to eat butthole. Not your average sports talk radio.
