Smitty wrote a blog about Bruce Springsteen and throws in that his wife's father was one of the pilots on 9/11? Wait what?
Believe it will be on YouTube or rumble. Seems though Gillie has been eliminated, he’s doing IG lives from Jersey
I only follow PMT, but does Max do anything else on Barstool? He's noticeably getting more airtime on the show. I think he's hilarious, but wonder how he would do outside of anything Philadelphia.
I don't ever watch these caves, but sticking Max in one with the huge weirdos that make up the Mets crew there seems like a recipe for mayhem....
Dave is all talk on firing people, but I think he is genuinely annoyed that Smitty thinks he is entitled to paid semi retirement because he has a kid. Also, I bet Smitty is very mad about being the longest tenured employee that didn’t become a multimillionaire after the sales.
He wrote a shitty blog explaining it that I can’t believe I took the time to read so here are cliffs - Dave wanted all hands on deck for Mets/phillies streams which included smitty - weeks before, his family planned a weekend for his 40th birthday -he defiantly blows off Dave and spends the weekend with his family - has dug in, saying he made other sacrifices in his personal life for barstool in the past and would never do so again smitty is comically unaware that he gets paid handsomely to watch sports on a live stream and make a few blog posts, things that hardly constitute a “job” that requires much sacrifice. To contrast with others like big cat who work their asses off and can seemingly make it work with raising a family. Tbh I think he’s got a giant chip on his shoulder bc he doesn’t have any equity and others have gotten rich while he hasn’t
He has zero self awareness. Like… no one cares very much about smitty. If he disappeared from barstool tomorrow I don’t think anyone would care. Longevity doesn’t equal value rico was going through the same thing two years ago. He legit thought he should be making a ton of money because he had been doing pick ‘em for over a decade. Dan would make fun of him and pres would sort of just shit on him but not really address it. Eventually they had to tell him like dude no one is tuning in for you and if you left pick em and it was just Dan and Dave doing a picks show it would have the same numbers. I think once they said that it finally clicked for him and he started blogging his ass off I know Dave doesn’t fire people but he has definitely not renewed some people and at this point in his life I think he is pretty resentful that he and Dan are still producing a ton of content and spending their weekends traveling to college towns etc to pay the salaries for people who take for granted that their job is to watch sports and write about it Maybe I’m just gullible as f but unless smitty starts working I doubt he gets renewed
Smitty also showed up late for the (i think it was) Monday night stream, after blowing the weekend off stream off.
