The Washington Commanders’ win over the Atlanta Falcons did not end the way that Dave Portnoy wanted it to, and because he did not get what he wanted, he is demanding a federal investigation.
Sunday Night Football provided millions around the country with the best game of the day as the Falcons took on the Commanders in a game that would need extra time.
Dave Portnoy, the head honcho at Barstool Sports, put in a 3-pick parlay that had Indianapolis Colts star running back Jonathan Taylor scoring two touchdowns, Philadelphia Eagles backup quarterback Kenny Pickett scoring an anytime touchdown, and then Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. scoring an anytime touchdown.
Jonathan Taylor and Kenny Pickett did their job.
Portnoy, who wagered $10,000, had to wait on Brian Robinson Jr.
If he scored, he would receive $359,891. 30. If he decided to cash out, he would’ve gotten a payout of $173,250.00. He chose not to.

Unfortunately for Dave Portnoy, Robinson finished the game with just 60 yards on 13 carries and failed to score a touchdown. That led to Portnoy going on a massive rant.
Christopher Rodriguez Jr. scored Washington’s only rushing touchdown of the game in the fourth quarter. The Barstool CEO was livid and demanded a federal investigation.
“[Rodriguez] has five f–king carries the whole season. Robinson is perfectly f–king healthy, smiling on the sidelines and we are giving it to this f–king guy?
“I want a federal investigation. I want f–king everyone in Washington investigated. I want DraftKings investigated. I want Robinson investigated. I want everyone with a f–king pulse, in-house, outhouse, park house [investigated]. What the f–k was that?”
Dave Portnoy Once Won $1.6 Million On Parlay
Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy may have made a recent loss, but that was just a drop in the bucket of the money he won this past summer.
Portnoy won big on the Boston Celtics’ NBA championship after he showed off his receipt for his two-pick DraftKings Sportsbook parlay of the Celtics as the NBA Finals winner and Scottie Scheffler as the outright winner of the 2024 RBC Heritage tournament in April.
His $100,000 wager got him $1,592,500,000 back.
PHOTO: Pittsburgh Offensive Lineman Had Hilarious One-Word Response After Dave Portnoy Questioned His Age Because Of His Hairline
Pittsburgh offensive tackle Ryan Baer went viral online after a not-so-flattering angle of his head got caught by ESPN cameras during Thursday’s game against Toledo.
The GameAbove Sports Bowl between the aforementioned teams featured six overtimes, but Baer’s hairline was probably the most talked-about part, with some top personalities from the sports world joining the gab.
Barstool Sports president Dave Portnoy was one of them, taking to X to suggest that the offensive lineman was probably way too old to still be in college.
“This 6OT game just blessed us with this hairline,” he wrote as the caption to a photo of the player’s very noticeable bald spot. “How old are college kids again?”
Baer, actually a redshirt sophomore, had a one-word response to Portnoy’s quip, simply stating “damn.”

Dave Portnoy’s Joke Brought The Bald Sports Reporters Out
Male baldness is a universal issue and affects a lot of men, including some of the most prominent names in sports journalism. ESPN’s Scott Van Pelt is one of the most notable and had some comforting words for the Pitt OT.
“Dude, it’s fine. Fine,” he tweeted.
“Ryan you look tremendous,” CBS Sports podcast host Kyle Long added.
“It’s alright brother, bad camera angles happen to the best of us,” Gojo and Golic’s Mike Golic chimed in.
Dave Portnoy replied to Ryan Bear, suggesting the player could make the most of his baldness and get himself a job at Barstool.
Meanwhile, Baer did not have the best outing, with Toledo beating Pittsburgh 48-46 in the six-overtime thriller. The game set the record for the most overtimes in a bowl game, but the player wasn’t able to leave with a win for his trouble.
Still, he got some words of encouragement from some of the biggest names in sports media.
