forget it. he's rolling. those lips on firmly locked on portnoy's cock

all the deadspin/ringer/bloggers who are quitting will join together to create a not for profit .org website to write SJW leaning loose sport takes.... then they'll end every post with a link to their communal pateron so they can afford to pay rent/food for the communal NYC loft they are going to live in.

I can understand why a guy like Portnoy would want to dance on Deadspin's grave. What I don't get is people outside the instustry who delight in doing the same. Makes no sense.

PS. I very much like PMT.

Many of these writers i assume are trustfund kids. So I assume they'll be fine in some way shape or form.

Outside of Magary none of these people have the capability to create their own entity online. None of them are good enough to build their own Outkick or Barstool (like them or not they are juggernauts in the sportsnews industry). and both of those entities exist outside of their article writing. all these people can do is write articles.

I assume most will be fine in some way shape or form.

Is Barstool sports news? That seems like a dubious claim, especially calling them juggernauts. ESPN is a juggernaut of sports news. Barstool is a place to waste time instead of work, is the impression I get.

Whither the smokeshows?

_________________

I encompass all sports anything as sports news basically. Both of those entities are huge success stories in their own right. ESPN is ultimately the mecca of sports journalism. it is the true juggernaut. But these companies in their own right when it comes to their competition are kings of their craft terminology aside.

smokeshows > the body issue

They aren't a juggernaut in sports news. ESPN spends more money on one MNF game than barstool is worth as a whole company.

They are a juggernaut in online digital media, but in terms of comparison to ESPN, you're correct there. ESPN spends roughly $2 billion per year to broadcast 17 weeks of MNF (plus playoff games though). If we say that it's 20 weeks of football to average it out, then 2 MNF games would roughly equal Barstool's current valuation of $150-200 million. A minnow compared to ESPN. A giant compared to other online publishers.

I guess that just shows the strength still of traditional media.

the guy Barry was fired and they all quit within 24 hours... so i find it hard to believe each of them had landing spots already setup.... i strongly believe they just assume they'll be able to obtain similar writing work for another website. i also strongly believe they are so full of themselves as elitest bloggers who are on the right side of everything... that they WOULD quit with no parachute lined up. because principles to them trump real life problems

here's what the transsexual writer tweeted yesterday after quitting.... sure sounds like she has a plan.... 1- ask for job on twitter.... 2-job offers will come in 3-if they dont..... go back to 1

Didn't everyone already do that for MSFNB?

Drew, Barry, and Laura will probably find employment within a month (or sooner in Drew's case). The rest of these guys are moving back in with their parents when reality hits them. I can't really name anyone at the site beyond those 3 because they are such replacement level writers.

With all the experts we have here, I don't see why we haven't tried to take on Barstool. Or Deadspin for that matter.

_________________

The big problem any of them will have is that deadspin was kind of the only site that was like "Hey, do you want sports, but do you also want A LOT of sjw topics thrown in randomly?" that actually mattered. There isn't a big market for that. However, they could fall into a more traditional sports site but the question would then be if they would be willing to "stick to sports" or if they would still write about how LeBron's receding hairline is a metaphor for how minorities are treated by the for profit prison system.

I just enjoy that that article was her crowning achievement.

hnd, which of the now unemployed Deadspin writers’ garbage cans are you most likely to raid? And before you answer, consider that going forward, these writers may not be as gluttonous given the lack of a steady paycheck.

Easy answer is Magary. He's talked about his wife having a pretty good job, and the dude is a good cook from what I've seen on TV.

Magary won chopped I believe. He also can probably eat anything and stay skinny. he seems the type. but he also doesn't seem the leftover type of guy.

New owners showing they have no problem directly lying to their audience and also showing they don't have a fucking clue about their audience. Nobody is going to Deadspin for 300 word sports blog posts. They are going for guys like Magary and Roth. Singling out a Magary column as a column the audience specifically isn't engaging with just shows you how full of shit they are.
