I like seeing Roger Goodell squirm.
— Dave Portnoy
We like sports. We're not apologizing for it.
I feel like I see more and more Neapolitan style, that I call 'fancy pizza' - that's not my cup of tea; I think it all tastes the same.
We have a long history of our reputation speaking for itself.
We have no union at Barstool Sports. Nobody is trying to make a union at Barstool Sports.
You can't put Barstool in a box however hard you try.
We will not bow down to the winds of PC culture whichever way they may blow.
It's strange: There are feminists who like Barstool and then feminists who hate Barstool.
Some girls are just cut out to be housewives, drive SUVs and sing in the shower as opposed to being superstars.
We don't take ourselves very seriously and view working at Barstool Sports as a way to avoid becoming slaves to cubicle life.
This is exactly why Barstool Sports has to exist. We're one of the few places - maybe the only place - on the Internet where we don't let agendas dictate what we do.
Everything the NFL touches that maybe we should be involved in... we always get the message the NFL frowns upon working with Barstool Sports.
We make it very clear, we don't want our fans to say over-the-line things. But if someone is saying, 'I can't wait for Dave Portnoy to go out of business,' I don't care if our fans say, 'You're the worst.'
I really don't turn the other cheek. So when I feel like I'm being attacked, I don't back down.
We really want Barstool Sports to be a brand that means something. It doesn't just have to be myself... you see the logo, that bar stool and the stars around it, and you know you're getting a certain type of vibe, a certain type of brand.
You judge a pizza place on their cheese slice.
I go on EEI shows. I go on with people I like.
I think I'm a fairly smart person.
That's the thing about New York, the streets of New York are crazy!
Ad revenue is important, but we want to be self-sustaining.
We're a comedy brand that pokes fun at everybody.
I don't know how anyone lives in Miami. Because no one goes to sleep.
There is always a line that can't be crossed. Anything that is said or written from a place of hate will never be acceptable behavior at Barstool.
All Patriot fans despise Goodell.
No Barstool writer has ever said or written one thing out of hate or anger. It's always to get a joke.
I hate hypocrisy.
The people at Barstool Sports are a bunch of average Joes, who like most guys love sports, gambling, golfing and chasing short skirts.
Everybody is saying, 'ESPN is not cool, no one is paying attention to ESPN, they're all paying attention to the Barstools of the world.' Why? Because we're authentic.
I love Boston, but it's a smaller city for the personalities and video and the other stuff we want to incorporate.
We're sick of other people saying what other people should laugh at.
If we sell a T-shirt, that probably means we thought it was a huge event that resonated with our crowd.
It was always our belief that if we brought out good stuff our fans will like it and we'll go.
If you're ordering chain, you're a person with poor taste. Everyone lives near a pizza place that's better than a chain. They can't stand up to a local pizzeria.
I'm never going to be on ESPN, probably. I've burned too many bridges. That's fine.
I'll speak to anybody, anytime, anyplace.
I like coal fired. I'm definitely, generally, always a coal-fired guy. Crispy, don't do a ton of sauce, but kind of a well-done, coal-fired pizza is my jam.
The motto is, control our destiny, do new things, where we talk directly with our consumers and aren't dependent on ad revenue.
Belichick's the greatest who's ever done it.
Everybody hates Goodell. He unifies all Patriots fans, all New England, everybody hates him equally. He's really a hated guy.
I'd say we represent the silent majority.
We're a comedy site and have made fun of every single race, religion, creed and gender. We've made fun of it equally.
I always wanted to find something that I could wake up and not hate doing. Hating your job was probably my nightmare scenario.
People know I'm a Jake Paul guy. I respect people who take over the Internet, and this guy has got maybe more haters than I do, which I also love.
We make fun of everybody.
Everything related to the NFL, we're banned from. Whether it be Media Day, whether it be even doing negotiations for TV shows, everybody's afraid of the NFL in their relation to us because they know they don't like us.
It's like, if you sign a guy you know is a punk and a jerk, you can't complain like, 'Hey, the punk jerk is acting like a punk jerk!'
The easiest thing to say is, 'I'm sorry.' We don't do that.
The fact that Manti Te'o thought for a long time that he was dating, like, a fake girl and then that she died and did the tribute and the girl never existed. I mean inherently that's funny.
Unless you're getting a dollar slice, there's no real money difference between a chain and your local pizzeria.
I want to make a boatload of money and i want to poof and maybe make it on the senior tour, live on islands, get a bigger Nantucket house.
