KMarko is seemingly being replaced by Coley Mick. Outside of Rappaport, can’t think of many Portnoy has let go. But I would assume many of the articles the past 4 months may have encouraged the change. KMarko is one of the original owners of Barstool

He still works there. Dave just wanted someone to make people do their jobs and write blogs.

Good riddance. 99.9% of sports media are f'ing awful.

If they aren't virtue signaling, they're click baiting. They contribute absolute nothing. The entire sports media world could disappear tomorrow and society would be better. They're just a caner.

Sports "journalism" died at least 20 years ago.

And if a website produce quality sports journalism, you wouldn't want to pay for it.

Capture female demographics.

Then they brought on Call Her Daddy (shitshow in itself), which brought in way more than Ellie could, and essentially shoved her into a corner.

The best thing Ellie ever did was the play-by-play of the Yankees playoff game after the Yankee guys fricked up the TV room and Dave wouldn't let them watch the game, so they had to sit through Ellie giving play-by-play, which was actually funny in pieces - no way could I sit through an entire game of it.

How pissed is bleacher report? They wanted to be Barstool and had that demographic for a little while. Then Barstool just came in and stole everyone.

I think she wanted to sjw virtue signal more and not be associated with a white frat boy brand, they didn't want her to post leftist political shite, and she was under contract so they agreed to let her leave if she won't talk about barstool again. She was tweeting out gofundmes for rioters and wanting people to burn down police stations. Bit of a leap from "Omg why do I sex the worst boyssssss."
