The White House Claims it Has Secret Tech That Can 'Manipulate Time and Space' and 'Leave Distance Annihilated'

As any fiction author will tell you, time travel is hard to write. First, it's a hard concept to grasp, which is why The Doctor's explanation of how time is "a big ball of wibbly wobbly, timey wimey ... stuff" is one of the most quoted lines in the show's 50-plus years. It's as good as any.  Also, e

A Patriots Fan's Wish List for Day 2: LSU Tight End Mason Taylor

Current roster: Hunter Henry, Austin Hooper, Jaheim Bell Positional overview: Tight end is a position that, while not the hugest of priorities at the moment, is nevertheless something that needs to be addressed. Henry has been a very good, though not spectacular addition since he came here with the 

Shock Poll! It Looks Like Stephen A. Smith's White House Bid is Over Before it Began

I've heard it said that the best time to be a candidate for office is right before you actually announce you're actually a candidate for office. That's said any time some celebrity is rumored to be considering it. Whether it's Matthew McConaughey, Dwayne Johnson, Denzel Washington, George Clooney or

Travis Hunter Might Have Changed the Draft by Declaring if He Can't Play Both Ways, He'll Never Play Football Again

You can count me among all those NFL draft nerds outside of Cleveland who wrote off any possibility of landing Travis Hunter with this little Schefter bomb: For those of us who watched our team let the No. 1 pick slip through its fingers like an Asante Samuel Super Bowl interception, any hope of sti

Forget the Moon Landing. The Hot New Conspiracy Says the Blue Origin Mission Was Faked.

Maybe we should've suspected all along. Perhaps it was too good to be true. It could be that we were all just being naive when we chose to believe that humanity was finally ready to boldly go where no one had gone before in style. Not with super serious test pilots and assorted uggos like in the pas

Mike Vrabel's Pre-Draft Presser Should Put the World on Notice the Days of the Patriots Being a Joke are OVER

It's been a while since I've darkened the door of Gillette Stadium. The 2024 season was only slightly less tragic than my personal life was. And I wasn't available for Mike Vrabel's introductory press conference. So with him taking the podium to talk about the draft, it seemed as good a time as any

DO YOUR POD

“Do Your Pod” is a weekly show focusing on the New England Patriots featuring the same type of content Jerry Thornton has been bringing to the Barstool blog from its inception in the early 2000s. With analysis of the games, news, storylines and the sort of slanted, biased, but totally honest opinions that helped build the Barstool empire. Each week he’ll be joined by different guests, including Patriots beat writers, media people, insiders, comedians, Barstool colleagues, and anyone entertaining enough to deserve a major audience during one of the most pivotal years in the history of football’s greatest dynasty.

A Very Brady Episode: ft. El Pres, Feitelberg and Hank Lockwood: Do Your Pod Episode 21

The Finale, Ft. Phil Perry: Do Your Pod Episode 20

It has obviously been a tough week to follow the Patriots. But it helped a lot to talk to NBC Sports Boston's Phil Perry. Phil and Nick and I start where you'd assume we would, slipping into metaphorical hazmat suits to clean up the radioactive waste from that meltdown in Buffalo Saturday night. We

Do Your Pod ft. Barstool Legend Uncle Buck: The Future is Bright

This week's special guest to talk about the Week 1 game against Miami is none other than Barstool Founding Father Uncle Buck, who sometimes goes by his alter ego name, Adam Cormack.  Buck is the creator of features that helped put Barstool into orbit back in our infancy, including the Wake Ups and S

The OnlyFans Mom Whose Kids Got Kicked Out of Catholic School Talks to Barstool, and She Takes a Flamethrower to the Parents Who Started This War

A little over a month ago, I brought you the story of Mrs. Poindexter, otherwise known as Crystal Jackson, a mom whose kids got expelled from their Catholic school because a group of parents found her OnlyFans account and demanded they be removed: Shortly after, Crystal reached out to me to say than
