Portnoy hits Rico Bosco with a dummy alert on Pick Em

Pres didn't wait for the full episode to drop. He clipped the moment himself and put the siren emojis on it.

DUMMY ALERT!🚨

The clip doesn't say who called who a dummy, and we won't guess. What we can say is that the dummy alert is Pick Em's native language. Three guys, a slate of college football spreads, DraftKings on the banner, and somebody always ends the segment looking like an idiot. Lately that somebody keeps being Rico.

This week's episode is basically built around him. The Week 7 show, which went up October 14 and runs 1 hour 25 minutes, has Portnoy, Rico and Big Cat recapping the Week 6 slate and previewing Week 7, and the hook is that Rico gets challenged to a picks challenge by Ed Brown. When a guy outside the show is lining up to try you, your picks are officially public property.

BOB DIACO PLAYS @Return_Of_RB: Kansas State -4.5 @BarstoolBigCat: Oregon ST -17.5 @stoolpresidente: Badgers +2.5 @hen_ease: BYU +10.5 @jmccarthy55: ND -10.5 @KevinZuppe OK ST +4.5 Ed: Oregon -7

The card is out too. Rico is on Kansas State -4.5, Big Cat is laying 17.5 with Oregon State, and Pres is taking the points with the Badgers at +2.5. There's an Ed on the board as well, on Oregon -7. Every one of those can turn into Monday's dummy alert depending on how Saturday goes.

“Every week we fly this guy out here to just troll Rico Bosco.”

That one came from Wake Up Barstool on October 5, and it's a pretty good summary of where Rico sits in the building right now. Trolling him isn't something that happens now and then. It's a weekly job, and other shows are in on it too.

Rico Bosco Is The New Fetish King | PICK EM - Week 6 t.co/womVhGlwHO

Then the full episode hit every Barstool feed on Saturday morning under the title "Rico Bosco Is The New Fetish King," so the man isn't getting a break on the YouTube thumbnail either. Next up is the scoreboard. If Kansas State covers and Rico takes care of Ed Brown, he gets to show up next week and yell at everyone. If not, Pres already has the siren emojis ready.
