I been wantin to see a honkey dance.
Newest episode is :discourse:, I frankly can't get enough of them ripping on libs who insist that the only way to win is to be nicer to conservatives.

Maybe it's the one two punch of mocking these morons followed by descriptions of how vile and nasty right wingers are.

Man, Michael Jordan was once reported to have said to muggsy bogues, a very small man, “shoot it you loving midget.” He missed and lost a playoff game because of it. Bogues said it ruined his career. https://deadendsports.com/top-10-stories-of-michael-jordan-being-the-greatest-jerk-of-all-time-6ce50102f83b

Really disappointed that they brought on a Barstool Sports guy, which is what PFT Commenter is now, no matter how much he tries to spin that into something other than "The Chive Sports." I mean, c'mon, the gang by proxy booted traffic in this guy's direction:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykjlRft4JO4

It's one thing to reject "follow policing," which is incontrovertibly bullshit (it's fine to follow the guy! he's funny!), and it's another thing to spend time boosting the guy even though the platform he generates dollars for absolutely, without question sucks poo poo.

Worst of all is the assertion the guy makes in the Deadspin piece about him where he justifies his presence on Barstool by saying it's one of the funniest collectives of writers online. Most blatant lie any Chapo guest has ever made in print to date.

That's the editor/founder/writer, probably one of their next top online personalities, too. PFT's employer didn't hire that guy - that guy is his employer. If Chapo brought on some guy from IJR Blue and suddenly softshoed listeners around Alex Skatell and Buzzfeed Benny, it'd be roughly equivalent.

Obviously "I've unsubscribed" isn't what I'm saying but there's basically no good reason to bring the guy on over other, smarter sports writers who have actual politics or insights to speak of. Not like there's any shortage of them on Twitter, and at least, like, Dave Zirin might have something insightful to say about the anthem, or the use of jet planes in games, or about the tendency of owners to treat public coffers as a private piggy bank, or any number of things where you could connect sports to real politics instead of, say, Barstool's approach, which is a website where guys aren't really political and they're just saying things that are funny and they're trying to be intentionally not PC (their words, not mine). If that approach sounds familiar, it's because Chapo has critiqued a number of people and institutions who've claimed the same stuff in order to try and wriggle out of the responsibilities of the politics they espouse. People complained in this thread about David Cross and Patton Oswalt showing up and being kind of normie-grade lib guys, but to me this is way more of an abdication of the Chapo line on a lot of things.

Besides, other actually semi-/quasi-controversial guests, like Angela Nagle, have at least had a book or some ideas or something. PFT got audibly pissy about the idea that the NFL's shitshow management has led to poor ratings because his ESPN deal got spiked after network bean counters ran a cost-benefit analysis on the 88,000 viewers he brought in vs. having to deal with the poo poo Barstool tends to stir up. That's all pretty lame to have to hear in order to get to some middling jokes about sports team owners that anyone with a passing familiarity with those guys could make.

If Russia Today or Israel24 had a few correspondents gloating about Peter Thiel/Hulk Hogan's lawsuit against Gawker, then yeah it would be kind of a comparable comparison. I kinda see PTFCommenter as a sports-centred equivalent of GetFiscal tho.
