In Case You Missed It: November 14 - 18

Jordie11/18/2016 7:45 PM

On any given day, there could beat least 75 new posts up on this goddamn website. Now granted, there are always some re-blogs and at least 20 wake ups/GTA’s/Smokeshow posts, but there’s still a shit ton that goes on every day. Between all those posts and listening to all the podcasts and trying to actually do a little bit of real work throughout your week, it’s easy to see how you would miss some things here and there. Even if you’ve signed up for the BARSTOOL SPORTS RANDOM THOUGHTS NEWSLETTER (sign up here), there are still some posts that just fall through the cracks. So that’s where In Case You Missed It comes in. A quick week in review on Friday afternoons highlighting the major stories from Monday-Friday for those of you who aren’t able to sit there and read every single post (or just wait for the second something is posted so you can be the first to comment about how shitty the blogger is).

Monday November 14

– There were a ton of major events that happened last weekend. But none were bigger than Iowa knocking off Michigan to send #Trent2NYC. One of the finest moments in Barstool history as the Big Daddy is headed to the Big Apple. Here’s the recap of how it all went down.

– One of the other major moments from Saturday night was the McGregor fight. And after another electrifying McGregor win, it begs the question–is Conor McGregor the biggest sports star in the world right now? Well,, it hard to say.

– Member Chappelle Show? Ohhhhh ya, I member Chappelle Show. And on SNL this past weekend, Dave Chappelle reminded us all how much better life used to be when he was on TV by bringing back some of his greatest characters.

– Chris Collinsworth is a bad bad man and Bill Simmons now has to call him daddy.

Tuesday November 15

– If you could only watch one video before your life ends, I’d hope that it would be this video of some old dude absolutely BODYING some anti-Trump protester. Probably the biggest hit you’ll see all year.

– Kim Jong-un has feelings too. And you’re all hurting those feelings by continuously calling that tubby lard a fatso. So hey, China. Stop calling Kim Jong-un a fatty! It really bothers him. *wink* *wink*

– While Kim Jong-un hates being called fat, New Balance hates being called the official sneakers of white supremacists. Even though New Balances are almost exclusively for white people or black dudes who are just trying to be ironic.

– Not quite sure how “Young Pageviews” isn’t the #1 fire hot ultra mega dope track on the Billboard Top 100 yet.

Wednesday November 16

– Dog The Bounty Hunter wants Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey to take truth serum and then have to answer to him on whether or not they actually killed that lady. And let me tell you something right now; a Making A Murderer/Dog The Bounty Hunter crossover would be the definition of appointment television.

– Uh oh! Look out! Some teams in the NBA are reallllllly stickin’ it to President-elect Donald Trump by refusing to stay at his hotels now during away games. Have fun getting fleas and bed bugs at your LaQuinta Suites from now on.

– Kate Upton? Yeah, more like Kate UpSET at the Cy Young voting results!!!! But seriously, she was fucking furious. Also–congrats on the sex, Verlander.

Thursday November 17

– Klay Thompson is handling his role being replaced by Kevin Durant very professionally and maturely. And by “professionally” and “maturely”, I mean he’s passive aggressively drinking post-game Coors Lights to show how little he cares about the game I guess? I don’t know. I just hope the mountains were blue.

– Here’s how Smitty hired an actor for Barstool Idol to pitch a bunch of ideas that have already been done before. Guess Pres isn’t much of a stoolie.

– Barstool Idol was full of surprises this week as Trent pulled a fast one on everybody and made an appearance. Leading to the Hug Heard ‘Round The World.
