Founder of Barstool is Dave Portnoy from Milton, MA

Not sure if that is him in the video

Kind of makes me long for the halcyon days of last week when all a dumbass like this had to do to get the attention and adulation of the couch-locked drool squad was say something stupid about Kaepernik.

Is him. Boorish and slovenly is his "schtick" ... where/if schtick ends and realty begins to show through in his rant is unclear. He's not so much the problem. That his barstool gig has the following and serious backing that it does is more the issue. There's a consuming, profitable audience that eats it up. Edgy sells but he may have pushed the envelope a bit too far for his buttoned-up backer. Bad press can be good press unless the ship begins to take on water.

I reported it to FB and they said it's fine under their standards. Which is funny cause the dude is advocating violence.

Oh well, clearly they don't care.

If he used the word transgender, for example, instead of cyclists, this would be on national media.

Violence against cyclists- much watch!

The Instagram user Outsideisfred had it up on his page but for one reason or another he took it down

Go to iTunes and leave a review on his podcast - one star reviews are a great way to impact him via his sponsors -

Heck, what if he just said he wants to target running over all Yankees players?

Would be a different public response, assuredly.
He just might get elected, depending on where he's running.

he ****ed with the wrong people, we cyclists are definitely annoying and we got time on our hands and since everyone hates us we stick together and when enough people reported that dumb ass video, the video eventually got taken down.

facebook ignored it when a few people reported for sure but when they got 100s of people reporting it, good bye

his twitter is already gone, hopefully we can kick that dumb site out of facebook as well.
