Caruso talking about the grinder was so funny lmao "Nobody in the league cared... which we know why"

[@chasebrown930]

Max two sodas. Two early uploads. On a roll

[@deegee8282]

Great interview! Barstool Chicago should have Pros vs Joes events!!

[@MasonDeWitt]

Love these upload times

[@JamesKPolk-bu7qe]

Max looking out for the night owls. Love to see it.

[@le9335]

I already loved Big Cat and PFT. After that fantastic John Fisher take I’m indebted for life. A’s fans been going through the wringer, thanks for shout out!!!!

[@PMTCommenter.]

Billy made us proud the way he handled himself on Fox News. Bravo William Football

[@sambenson7848]

The Caruso interview was awesome. He gets it.

[@pauls3104]

You the best max!

[@EnjoyerOfWater]

Caruso seems like a bro. Great convo with the fellas

[@bradfekety2410]

Thank you max

[@benmecha01]

Never forget Caruso’s poster on Ole Miss in college 🥲 also that team with him and Danuel House was nice

[@Br4y44]

Caruso sounds exactly like the Gard dawg

[@MrMCLax2]

Dawgs are blessed today regardless.

[@lookdoug1516]

Going to sleep so well knowing max did his job

[@rickDArula]

As a bulls fan we love Caruso. You can’t teach hustle and effort. I know we need to rebuild but he’s one guy I don’t want to let go

[@Eiipiii]

So pumped for mr pear

[@chknwang321]

Hank with the sick hoodie flex. We see you

[@hayesfloyd8752]

Max going ham this week! Keep killing it stud.

[@michaelcorrao2780]

I’m waiting for the clip of Billy explaining a combo to float on the timeline while he’s running.

[@victorcarpentier4550]

[@lakflame]

Woah max it’s not even friday yet

[@tysenwink6845]

Billy Football for prez 2036

[@coltontisdall5462]

Caruso says “nightmeres” like Bert

[@Carlos2Dangerous]

I get the owner is greedy and that’s a reason to hate him. But have they been to Oakland? If I owned literally any business based in Oakland I’d absolutely move it anywhere else given the opportunity

[@D-V-C-N]

Oakland is straight out of idiocracy. California governance is disgraceful

[@jaxtunes4036]

Caruso rules

[@aidansattler2924]

I know a well pressed button when I see one, solid job Max

[@stephendees-lu4yq]

Alex Caruso come in at 39:22

[@masonwolf2782]

Gig’Em!!!

[@lolarsystem]

DK Redick “Also, you’re a jerk” commercial is kicking my ass lately

[@user-ti1cl3hu3y]

MAX WITH THE CLUTH BUTTON PRESS

[@declancondon4604]

Maxwell, two Pepsis on the house tonight

[@123..0.]

He's still carrying around that Malcolm x book

[@Charliemassie]

CARUSO. ALL TIME 'GUY'

[@Soup_is_goood]

Hows it hanging there Two Sodas McGoo?

[@tylerbasse6153]

Max has been in Kobe mode this week 🫡

[@cjs20]

Max has been been doing so well, it’s only a matter of time until he forgets to press the button again

[@sedulba]

Did we get Mr Pear?

[@pattyess123]

Diarrhea rule exists up in Canadian Daycares too. Personally, I'm surprised it's not a 2 D limit.

[@harrychisholm24]

What’s with the suns and Caruso?

[@tylito4764]

Bills also took a 31m cap hit trading diggs

[@connorsmith7951]

I’m so ready for Mista pearrrrrr

[@tommyjassoiii1703]

Does anyone know the hoodie that Alex Caruso had on ?

[@joshuamarlin5419]

Eastside Golf

[@brianwatts8558]

I had no idea Skechers was a skateboarding brand

[@Youngbull20]

BILL COTTER FOR CONGRESS!

[@tylito4764]

This and j cole album dropped in the same night. Wow.

[@tyarak5669]

I’m a lifelong kings fan who grew up in Sacramento. I hate this so much it feels dirty and no one from sac really wants this team to come to the city. I think the city would open an expansion team with open arms but I don’t like taking someone’s team

[@kjj4927]

MAX DA GAWD

[@camandtatesshirtbus1844]

Max is the good luck chuck of sports

[@squidskid4101]

The pacers have like 5 guys that would carry the 16th seed to a championship, the league must have close to triple digits.

[@shleighbig]

Would you rather have Keenan Allen for a 4th round or Diggs for a 2nd?

[@erictavares678]

pug over everyone

[@MarkO-zs9et]

Box turtles are 20 years also 😂

[@brandonhausner]

showering in the dark is elite.

[@breezyfreeze4622]

Max! Ah Ah Ah! Savior of the universe

[@Rdog3188]

It’s so funny when they glaze Josh Allen.. like I get it cuz he’s a good friend of the show but still funny

[@dessoh98]

Another Hank W. This guy rocks

[@jonnyferrarini300]

elbow talk

[@prestonbarrett856]

Mr. Pear would beat max in a 40 yard dash, if you could get Mr. Pear motivated.

[@Theiliteritesbian]

I wish the packers would go all in on Love's rookie contract. Its just one year. C'mon!

[@pokeslug7446]

I’m here for Mr. Pear.

[@jacobohlinger3782]

Max out here making a case for button presser of the year 👀

[@walkerking3875]

DC has the Commanders and Defenders. The Durrrrs

[@robertbullard-te6dq]

Stella Blue Coffee is with the shits

[@dbsuper2928]

I got two cokes!! One for the road & one for my nose

[@Ryhunts]

Does Pug not realize what a turtle tank smells like??

[@caveman153]

We are still upset that he left and we kept that other guy then traded him to the jazz! Come home CARUUUUUSSSOOOOOO

[@martinbrickland9216]

Knocks on wood, gets traded to the warriors 😂

[@BrianWolftop]

hey #bigcat. If you want to get that polish off your toes, go to one of those nail places and get a pedicure. They'll do it and they'll enjoy it and you'll be smiling after that stuff is off your toes and then you can. Enjoy your weekend.

[@joshm4782]

Just got done closing the bar. Elite button push for me to unwind before bed

[@zacharyrinehart7247]

Does Caruso sound like Hank ???

[@Leahcimyelnoc]

Big ten/sec v big ten/sec. bama over UConn Purdue over nc state big ten teams get the win giving the big ten its title run to compete the the sec at the right time. Harbough wins the natty with Michigan. Caitlen Clark wins her national championship with Iowa over the cocks, and Zach Edey brings home a title with Purdue over the tide.

[@bee1444]

Big Cat is soooo relatable!!! (I completely forgot he’s worth $100 million, has multiple mansions, many Mercedes, and made a whole company move their HQ for him!)

[@MatthewBakke]

Big Cat is probably the lowest paid of the top tier sports commentators by a decent margin.

[@jeffreyeisma5416]

⁠@@MatthewBakkeI don’t know shit on the topic really, but isn’t his being worth a shit ton of money technically different from how much he’s paid?

[@D-V-C-N]

@@MatthewBakkewhat’s your evidence for that buddy? Or did you just reach directly into your hiny for that made up fact

[@MatthewBakke]

@@D-V-C-N well I said probably, because a lot of it is murky. If you have a copy of Big Cat’s contract then it would make life easier. Based on Barstool’s valuation I was assuming his contract or comp is lower than: Stephen A SVP Cowherd Skip Shannon Barkley Shaq Simmons Based on what I can google

[@MatthewBakke]

@@jeffreyeisma5416 I guess it depends on your perspective. Big Cat is probably worth good money, but I see posts acting like he’s pulling in $10M a year and made $100M from the sale after tax. The math doesn’t math.

[@billyrhymer9073]

Max is my upstairs neighbor. Pretty sure he finishes second every night. Sounds like he puts in some work but he be louder than his chick 💯

[@WMU89]

Why would Billy want revenge?

[@kevincarballo6303]

SHOUT OUT ALL MY NIGHT SHIFT WORKERS IN THE COMMENTS!

[@MatthewBakke]

3 for 3, Max

[@foynemfilms]

at this point no way Max doesn’t win producer of the year

[@joedoc4975]

how could anyone vote for a guy who couldn’t even finish a plate of hot wings during grit week?

[@jimothyC92]

Keep the same energy with Mark Davis. You guys are going to piss us off by dying on this hill as your only baseball talk.

[@mortyberglind]

Josh Allen glazing is out of control at this point.

[@CommunityNotesVerified]

Laker Legend

[@stephendees-lu4yq]

Put some time stamps on this shit
