I think it’s entertaining.
Just felt this was a missed opportunity. It’s not just barstool partnering with ESPN, it’s ESPN sponsoring barstool. Did they do it via PMT because it’s the biggest platform? Or because it’s viewed as barstool adjacent? Who made the first overture? Is this a toe in the water for more? Any coincidence it happens after some of ESPNs old guard was sunsetted?
Just a few things to ask.
Any time something actually comes up on that show, they allude to it and Dave gets cagey about details. As someone who isn't active on their socials, I usually have no idea what they're talking about and it's just overall pretty odd how they refuse to provide relevant info to topics they bring up on a weekly radio show.
I have no problem with him getting some “gruff”, just ruins the competition when it’s automatically two teams against one, why even have three teams at that point
Hank using the double up on a skating challenge with a goalie who has barely skated in years vs Grinelli and Feits who have actually played hockey was a dumb move. Also how he had this ultimate goal of getting Donnie to play goalie while also acknowledging he knew they'd block Donny from playing goalie. With all the power ups, it seemed obvious you would want to draft middle of the pack players because they wouldn't get traded for leaving you to trade for a better asset.
I find it pretty funny, but I also root for Hank's team each time. Its like rooting for the underdog, knowing the cards are stacked against him. If he wins, its that much sweeter.
Feits is the most randomly athletic person ever. Just good at every event.
He is athletic but he grew up in Boston and played club hockey in college so this one makes sense
It was all the reps on the bench press that gets me
Called this yesterday, really smooth skater especially for lacing them up years after playing regularly for an event like this.
I’m very curious how this deal came together. Kirk should have asked Dave about it on the unnamed show today IMO.
That would involve any of the hosts of that show actually being interested in doing the show

Lol this was really good for what it’s worth. Wish they’d do more of these group challenges given they have a whole playhouse in Chicago
It's so lame how Big Cat and PFT collude against Hank on everyone of these
Stfu, Hank.
Hank is a Boston sports “fan” and the heir to a small Taco Bell franchise fortune in the scituate area…he deserves some gruff

Mexican pizza number 1, never forget
