Look, we know MLB is prone to bad decisions. But yesterday’s news that Major League Baseball is in talks to partner with Barstool Sports while actively engaged in the sexual assault investigation of Trevor Bauer could lead to a decision that would make the extra-innings man-on-second rule seem like a decision from the Magi.
Why? Well, to put it bluntly, because Barstool is synonymous with racism and misogyny.
For those who don’t know, Barstool Sports is a “sports & pop culture blog” run by the love-child of Greek life and the GOP, Dave Portnoy. Portnoy, who calls himself “El Presidente” despite being 0% Hispanic, is probably the biggest idiot with a degree in education from a college other than Liberty University.
