Just look at the aura of that picture. Jayson Tatum fucking wishes he had even a fraction that comes from our newly dubbed name: The 4B's (Barstool Breakdown Blog Boys). We just had our first joint meeting where we just shot the shit and introduced ourselves to people. But what content could each of the 4B's do individually and collectively? Well let me give each of my fellow companions some ideas from stuff I know I would love to see personally.
FRANKIE "THE KID" BUCA
DAY AS A DAD
Frankie is the only dad of the group (unless there's a mini-Twan running around he doesn't know about) and I know I personally would love to hear the shenanigans his kids put him through. Similar to how any time Big Cat talks about his kids and we get to see a glimpse of the view on life that his kids have, I want to hear stories from Frankie. Did they say something that freaked him out and assures he won't get an ounce of sleep like the little kid in Sixth Sense? Did he catch their hand quite literally in the cookie jar? I want to know more about the Buca clan.
TEACHER TORTURES
Frankie is a teacher too and I commend him for that as my mom is one too and I know the type of shit kids say and do at school. I have seen too many TikToks of words like "skibidi" and "fanum tax" being banned from classrooms. Keep in mind Frankie is also a Florida boy which is an entirely different world within itself. What the hell are these Florida kids saying in a classroom that makes Frankie lose his shit?
JUMP OUT OF THE JET
Poor poor Frankie. He is a New York Jets fan and before we started recording went on an almost Frank-the-Tank like tangent of how awful that god-forsaken franchise is. I want to see Frankie fully unleashed and just spend 5-10 minutes recording himself or writing about how every week he is subjecting himself to torture that would make FBI agents rethink their methods. How does he deal with kids at school 5 days a week, being a Father of Two, and then watching the Jets once a week? That man is absolutely unbreakable.
JOHNATHAN "SANDSMAN" SANDOS
SENDING WITH SANDS
Pick a game where he bets a (responsibly) decent amount of money on and post updates of how it's looking whether it's video reactions, keeping track of the ups and downs on a blog, or whatever. Get a few High Noons deep and just SEND IT.
ENTER SANDSMAN
Pretty simple here. I just want a weekly recap of what's going on in Sandos' life. Whether it's whatever Barstool personality he's interviewing, crazy people he has to deal with at work, his dog eating toilet paper like it's a Fruit roll-up, or what. Just let me see what it's like to be the Sandsman.
MORE BREAKDOWN VIDEOS
Sandos and Frankie got to this point by being genuine Stoolies with a great idea and work ethic. Just keep pushing on and keep the videos coming Sands.
DERIK FROM THE CHAT
"RALLY RIP" GAME OF THE WEEK
Similar to "Sending With Sands" but with a twist. Derik should pick a different game each week where it's going to be a toss-up or dogfight. A game where it comes down to the last couple minutes...and execute a Rally Rip. Bet who he thinks wins and hope it comes down to being able to rip for a win. Bonus points if he can attend one of the games each month and execute it live.
RYDER REPORTS
Derik is still an enigma and a man that should be feared as a Ryder. I want to know instantly what skell he's going to war with and why. Give the reports from the frontlines.
RYDER'S RYDER OF THE WEEK
Who had a good week in Derik's eyes? Could it be a professional/collegiate athlete that won him money? A Barstool personality? Who's ryding for someone that's ryding themselves?
BIG TWAN
BTW'S
Big Twan's Women. Twan is a womanizer and has an unreal amount of funny stories when it comes to his past escapades. I wanna hear some of the ones that stand out, why it ended, and who he's got his eye on now that Cameron Brink got engaged. Also give dating advice, tips, and pointers to all the other single guys out there.
MOOK CAN'T SLEEP HIGHLIGHTS
Twan is far and away the best consistent caller on Mook Can't Sleep. Give us a highlight tape similar to John Wall in high school each week. Maybe even more in depth than we get to witness on air.
BIG TWAN'S BULLY HOUR
Pick someone to go in on and don't hold back. Or praise someone who has a bully heart and lift them up. Just let Twan get into a groove and watch this man cook.
REED JONES AKA MYSELF
You know what? I'll let my fellow 4B's tell me what more they want to see from me other than nerd stuff and sports list ideas.
THE 4B'S
DRAFT DAY
Almost every podcast or blog as some form of a draft. Why can't we? Let's get the draft boards fired up and try and walk away like the Seahawks did in 2012 when they got Bobby Wagner, Russell Wilson, and Bruce Irvin. Is anyone amongst us the Browns?
PICK OF THE WEEK
We all gamble and this gets the competitive juices flowing. Each pick a bet and track the records. The winner gets bragging rights and the loser will have to live with the shame that they are the worst gambler out of an already mediocre AT BEST group of gamblers.
MEETUPS IN PERSON
The 4B's are all spread out across the East coast and Midwest. So any opportunity we have to attend a Barstool live event or some other thing we should jump on. Whether it's all five of us or even just two of us. That becomes great content as we can all bounce ideas off each other of what to do and can do stuff we've all already been doing together or live.
Either way if you're at this point of the blog, invest NOW. I wouldn't be working and blogging with this group of fellas if I didn't see the same spark and drive within them that I have myself to grow a platform and make good content. The Four Horsemen? Nah. We are THE 4B'S. This is only the beginning of something great.
