I just gotta say, I have a bit of a love/hate with Portnoy...
The good: I like his pizza reviews and what he does for pizza shop small businesses, and how he saved and advocates for rescue dogs, etc.
...but... To say he has personal "issues" is an understatement.
Also, he's a Red Sux homer to fault, thin-skinned, and has some sordid personal bahavior history to to say the least.
Also, he constantly refers to himself as some sort elite "triple crown" baseball player and home run hitter. Evidently he was actually pretty good - in highschool in Swampscott, MA. He claims a shoulder injury sidelined his college and pro career... OK, so why do you have to pretend your triple-crown highschool stint makes you a pro hitter?? It's cringeworthy.
This was a great chuckle...
Also love that Chisolm went after him as the pro baseball "nobody" that he is:
