I like T bob but this should be a improvement for the morning show.

Seems like a good fit for him

OTB with Hester and Tbob was amazing. I will certainly miss it, I really found Tbob entertaining.

I enjoy T-Bob in the mornings.

I can't listen to drunk T-Bob on Whiskey and Wine

Wow so I won’t be able to hear phallus related jokes along with a host of F-bombs on Saturday nights anymore?

I used to listen to Barstool all the time about 10 years ago. After COVID I started to find all of their program to be really annoying and douchey. Maybe I just grew up.

T-Bob's schtick will fit in really well there. It will certainly make Whiskey and Wine much more palatable.

Good luck and congrats to him.

TBOB deserves a big opportunity.

He will be the most talented personality at barstool. I would have listened to his content anywhere but barstool.

Their content is cringe. They have a bunch of people who don’t know ball, and aren’t funny. They are still riding on the coattails of PMT and call her daddy.

Barstool is essentially dude perfect but they curse and drink seltzers.

Sucks he is going there

After Dave Portnoy rallied the Michigan boosters/fanbase to buy Bryce Underwood away from LSU, I have boycotted all things Barstool Sports.


That’s just a specific instance, but it’s clear he wants to use his baby and the money it has lined his pockets with to do whatever the frick he wants. I have no desire to support that, especially when it’s someone who tries to pretend he’s covering the sports he’s also blatantly working to influence.

And most of what Barstool does is also a fricking joke.

Do you avoid any other brand because they favor another school over LSU?


It’s a little different when you take money earned by a product that got its start covering sports to directly influence outcomes in a sport it covers.

It’s certainly not illegal, but it’s just as legal and valid for fans of other teams to tell Portnoy and his baby to frick off and not continue to feed him.

I believe most of the new talent get a starting salary of 100k on a one year contract and then a negotiation after that first year. Im sure bonuses are tied to merch sales, etc.


$100k in Chicagoland with IL state taxes is not as good as it might sound to some. Hope his wife has a good job that travels.

He’s just not for me. I tune into sports radio to hear sports talk not Star Wars, hobbits and all the other crap. Also the sreaming and hollering at 7:30 in the morning is obnoxious. But good for him. I’m sure he’s getting paid big time.


Agreed. He also injected his political opinions during the broadcast, especially during the COVID era and the Bud Light saga.

I tune into sports radio to get away from that shite. I definitely do not need to be lectured by a spoiled, pompous arse.

He has his moments but its at least different and entertaining at times.

Sometimes the extraneous tangents can be annoying but that is part of it.

NOLA Sports Radio doesn't exist so at least its something
