Jesus Christ man that ***** is completely uncalled for in this day and time tokenism exists. And it’s by no fault of Nardini’s, but Portnoy is the face of that company, always has been. So if the actual CEO takes a backseat to his antics, what would you call it. And Barstool has hired female staffers in recent years. Hasn’t always been like that though, so I’m hesitant to give Portnoy credit for “diversifying.”

Make a popular decision and decree that the name shall be hence forth and evermore Ralph Wilson Memorial Stadium, aka "The Ralph." Thank you for your attention to my recommendation. Respectfully, Keukasmallie Hate to break it to you but no one is going to say “no thanks” to $4m to $5M a year for that. 2

TH3 Posted August 20, 2020 Posted August 20, 2020 Portnoy going to have to apologize first?....2017 Pats game the Barstool Winnebago was tossed out and told they were not welcome back 1
buffaloboyinATL Posted August 20, 2020 Posted August 20, 2020 They do love the antics of Bills Mafia, so it seems like a good fit for them. Of course, I really don't want the Bills playing in Barstool Stadium, so I hope they are outbid.

Mr. WEO Posted August 20, 2020 Posted August 20, 2020 If an apparel complain with exclusive pro sports licensing rights selling hats (1 billion a year revenues) for years all over the world could not find 5 mil a year to pay they naming rights tab, hows some internet sports column blog going to swing it?

Portnoy is in charge of the entertainment side, and Nardini is in charge of the business side. His antics ARE the entertainment. Her job was never to curb his antics, but to make his antics more profitable, which she absolutely has. Beyond that, and where she has really excelled, is she was charged with growing the brand. Barstool has seen its brand absolutely explode under her guidance. She legitimized the brand and expanded it to grab female audiences. She has succeeded by a measure that was beyond anyone's wildest expectations. Reducing her to the "Token CEO" is as offensive as it is ignorant. Portnoy is an idiot. That said, Barstool is not Portnoy, or at least it isn't anymore. If you think otherwise, you just aren't paying attention. Their two most successful offerings--Parton My Take and Call Her Daddy--Portnoy doesn't have any involvement with. The same is true for most of their other podcasts/shows/etc. 1

I’m honestly speechless.

Nextmanup Posted August 20, 2020 Posted August 20, 2020 Can't we all just agree to call it Ralph Wilson Stadium and give a big middle finger to the whole stadium naming process? I can remember a time when not all stadiums whored their name out to the highest bidder every few years.
TBBills Posted August 20, 2020 Posted August 20, 2020 Still gonna call it the Ralph so don't care that much.

cd1 Posted August 20, 2020 Posted August 20, 2020 Quote As we continue the transition process from New Era Field to a new naming rights partner, we will officially use the name Bills Stadium for our home in Orchard Park. bufbills.co/3j17Q9I 1
njbuff Posted August 20, 2020 Posted August 20, 2020 Barstool Sports Stadium sounds like a bad bowel movement. 1
ColoradoBills Posted August 20, 2020 Posted August 20, 2020 I would prefer a different name from a different company. 1

Whenever Barstool makes the wider news, is it not Portnoy who’s quoted in those stories? ”tokenism” as i used it doesn’t mean I think Nardini is incompetent or unqualified. Not at all. I do think there were strategic motives beyond just her business acumen that Portnoy definitely considered.
