Subject: Fwd: Why I left barstoolsports.com
–
First, I’d like to acknowledge Louis@barstoolsports.com. This fucking guy had a phone meeting with me coked out of his mind about an online advertising partnership with a client on the shores of NJ. Within seconds of talking to him, he immediately had to disclose how he ‘drank too much than he should have.’ Thereafter, he sounded like a he was talking at 100 mph going nowhere. Just an absolute dbag with a coke addiction. To quote pres ‘Douchebag City.’ I tried to help with the ad buy, however, due to barstool’s infamy, the ad purchase was never even consider. Despite my aloof attitude toward Louis@barstoolsports.com, he continued to follow up with short and unprofessional one liners. After two months, the emails stopped and perhaps he learned an important lesson about the advertising industry; Don’t follow a lead for longer than a month.
I recently visited the stool to find an anti-obamacare ad. Now, I’ll admit, I’m a hardcore liberal. With the current political climate, it’s hard not to be. On one side, you have people telling other on the national stage ‘Obama is a Kenyan and should be impeached!’ On the other, you have sane people saying ‘We should provide healthcare to those bankrupted by medical bills and denied insurance for pre-existing conditions.’ The answer comes easy to those who support the government will for the common good. For those on the opposition, the answer is ‘I got mine, now you get yours.’ I haven’t been more certain in my life than to support obamacare. Seeing the anti-obamacare ad on barstool turned my stomach, because it revealed to me that not only is this right wing fraction of the population loud and ultimately dangerous to America’s well-being, but that the right wing has now infiltrated a site that I visit for humor and entertainment. I emailed tips@barstoolsports.com to demand the ad be removed. What I received was ‘5K and it comes down. Either that or go fuck yourself.’ That’s when I realized what KO Barstool was about. It isn’t about what they call the promotion of ‘rape culture.’ It’s a emotional cry of what I’ll call ‘Douchebag Culture.’ The way the site blogs about incidents in the news is a complete douchbag perspective. Best example, KFC blogged about a JFK bound man being duck taped to his seat due to misbehaving on the place(http://nyc.barstoolsports.com/random-thoughts/dude-gets-duct-taped-to-his-seat-on-flight-from-iceland-to-jfk/). The blog compared the incident to 9/11 in terms of scope of disaster. The blog was slaughtered by negative comments calling for KFC’s resignation. But, that’s just how the douchebag mind works. Nothing is off limits even if it means degrading the suffering of the victims of 9/11.
El pres was notoriously eviscerated by his creation of ‘Baby Gate.’ The idea of posting a toddler’s dick and complimenting it on the internet never occurred to him as ‘morally wrong.’ Don’t get me wrong. I think El Pres is hilarious. However, the conduct of his employee makes me further believe that ‘douchebag culture’ is alive and well at the stool.
My buddy of many years recently quit the stool because he said it made him angry. Not suprising to me at all. All KFC does on barstool new york is spew venom on his blogs. It’s become his ‘style’ of blogging. Looking at him on KFCRadio, you can see him radiating with glee as he spits acid on whoever is on the show. It’s a source of happiness for him that ultimately creates douchebags in his crossfire.
Finally, I’d like to say fuck you to Louis@barstoolsports.com. Take your 5K and blow it out your asshole you petty mother fucker. Glad to see that things are doing well for you at the stool! Clearly, the ‘mogul’ status of el pres hasn’t trickled down to the little guy. I wish you all the worst and good luck being the biggest douche I’ve never met.
Sincerely,
Never coming to barstoolsports.com again

You are a morally devoid person. If you could be this petty to email a single soul about my grievances with the stool you obviously A) don’t have enough friends or B) are so insecure that you have to respond to every email that offends you. Either way, I don’t give a fuck.

My job is to post all of this so everyone can see what kind of douchebags are conning people into thinking barstoolsports.com is funny comedy. I’ll admit, I do laugh at el pres, big cat, and smitty’s blogs. However, the conduct in which you were responsible will not go unpunished. #DouchebagCity

The fact that I have you’re attention is enough for me to continue posting about you’re lack of respect and frankly your complete naivety concerning PR. This is the internet. You can’t escape invasion of privacy. Now that I have your email saying the atrocious things that you have said, I can let the people decide your fate…

i hope you enjoy your last days as a barstool employee. One things for sure, you don’t upset your clients… And in all seriousness, you will be fired. Just think about your skills as a cashier or bartender… Either profession will gross more than what you make.
