OT kinda: barstool - again
seems they pop up on my radar occasionally now. unfortunate because they seem like class A bags. add misogyny to their violence against cyclists rants. not surprised. however did disney think this was a good affiliation???

If you are a Patriots/NFL fan, the Goodell/clown t-shirt was fun.

Other than that, they are playing the a-hole card for profit.

I am pretty sure a former Patriot player who is now a cyclist contacted them about dialing back the anti-cyclisting rhetoric.

Not sure how much effect it had overall.
