Barstool NYC Is Formally Challenging Barstool Chicago To A Basketball Game

Nicky, please read a book. I promise it won't hurt you and you might even like it. There are some really great books out there about things you care about. Everyone in the company says you are the worst blogger in the company but we can both agree that honor should be permanently bestowed to Benjamin Mintz. We all want you to be better Nicky. Even starting with perusing simple brochures may help.

Sadly, the era of Nicky Smokes being literate has yet to begin, so this catastrophe exists:

It sounds like both New York and Chicago want to play each other. Fantastic. Let's set some ground rules.

Mark Titus & Patrick Beverly

We will not be playing with PatBev. That's insane and not what this matchup is about. It would go against the sanctity of the match.

It sounds like Titus isn't interested in playing. However, if Chicago feels they need him, we will not stand in the way of that. However, Nicky Smokes did write this:

Even without Titus, we'd win that game by 30 points

As far as White Sox Dave wanting to play one-on-one against me, I'd be happy to, but I am awful at basketball and am 44 years old. I was never remotely good to begin with! I'm somehow even worse now. I am the Head Coach and GM of this NYC team. But I'm never going to say No to content. I'll bob for apples against Mintz and I'll play WSD in one-on-one if that's what he wants. But my lack of ability has no bearing on New York or Chicago. You'd just see a scrawny middle-aged man flail around (which I'm sure has it's own value).

Content Vs. Non-Content

There's been back and forth with this so we'll throw out a compromise we think is fair.

Each team gets to use one employee who is not considered content. For us, that would be Nick Mulcahy. He's been a major part of our team for two seasons. Chicago can obviously pick whoever you want. 

This can obviously be negotiated but we think this is a fair starting point.

Where Do We Play?

You guys have a gym, so we'd obviously travel. If this got big enough to play at another site that accommodates fans, even better. Basically, we have no issue traveling to do this.

We are ready to play when you guys are. I'd be happy to jump on a call to negotiate a date and time that works best for everyone. We absolutely want this happen. We've wanted it to happen for months.

And we will win.
