Dave Portnoy, founder of Barstool Sports, has indicated that his former company contributed to the current success of Pat McAfee, now a prominent figure at ESPN. Portnoy’s comments address the question of whether McAfee would be where he is today without his time at Barstool.
Portnoy acknowledges McAfee’s talent but implies Barstool provided a crucial platform for his growth. The comments come as McAfee has risen to become one of the most recognizable faces in sports media and a key personality for ESPN.
According to the report, Portnoy seems to believe that McAfee has Barstool to thank for some of his success, stating, “Would McAfee be what he is now without us?” The source does not elaborate on specific contributions Barstool made to McAfee’s career, but frames Portnoy’s statement as a response to assessing McAfee’s current position and past association with Barstool Sports.
