First she gave Penn $550 million, then Dave $1. That seems insane, but it was. ”
She expressed her belief that Barstool Sports is back on the right track under Portnoy’s leadership. She said, “A pirate ship with Dave at the helm…I’ve accomplished what I came here for, but I’ve done more than I could have ever imagined. Now it’s your turn to drive the ship forward.”
Erika concluded her message with, “My time at Barstool will forever inspire me. I gave you everything. Thank you for giving me so much more.”
