Dave Portnoy puts ‘petty rivalry’ with Travis Kelce aside to congratulate Taylor Swift on engagement while calling out Kanye West

Dave Portnoy has made his feelings known.

The enigmatic Barstool Sports founder put aside his beef with Ohio State to congratulate Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce on their engagement.

While Portnoy and the Buckeyes have dominated the college football world with their back-and-forth about whether or not he is allowed to be inside their stadium this weekend, he took time to react to the massive news about Swift and Kelce.

In usual El Presidente fashion, Portnoy held an impromptu emergency press conference to congratulate the happy couple and take shots at the controversial Kanye West.

“Taylor Swift is engaged,” Portnoy said.

“Mother gets engaged [to] Travis Kelce. So happy for her, she deserves the world and love wins. All this petty rivalry, yeah I love football, yeah I love the back and forth, but let’s just remember that love wins.

“So congratulations to Taylor, couldn’t be happier for you. And just f*** Kanye. F*** him. F*** you. She won, you lost, loser.

“But congrats to mother because that’s what this is about.”

West and Taylor have had a public beef going back years. West first humiliated Swift at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards when Swift won the VMA for Best Female Video.

West infamously interrupted Swift’s acceptance speech, embarrassing the young artist in front of the entire country at the time.

He has since demeaned Swift in songs, using vulgar and inappropriate lyrics to disrespect her, all shots that were unprompted and highly inappropriate.

West has also made numerous anti-Semitic comments over the years, fostering dangerous and offensive rhetoric about Jews.

Portnoy, a proud Jew, has made no secret of his disdain for West.

And he hasn’t been the only one. The rapper’s image and credibility has taken a significant nosedive over the last decade, most of which has been self-inflicted.

In the end, Portnoy declared Swift the winner of the beef—she’s now happily engaged to Kelce and coming off the most successful musical tour of all time.

Speaking of beef, Portnoy mentioned in his video that, “All this petty rivalry, yeah I love football, yeah I love the back and forth, but let’s just remember that love wins.”

He could be referring to a handful of things. His current war of words with rival Ohio State, or his friendly rivalry with Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs.

Portnoy is one of the biggest Boston sports fans on the planet, most notably for his love of Tom Brady and New England Patriots.

NFL's Greatest......

Ranking the top 10......

Quarterbacks of all-time – Can anyone better Tom Brady?

Wide receivers of all-time – Does Randy Moss or Jerry Rice come out on top?

Running backs of all-time – Stacking Jim Brown, Barry Sanders, Walter Payton, Emmitt Smith and more

Tight ends of all-time – How does Travis Kelce compare?

Who has been Kelce and the Chiefs’ biggest rival over the years?

Brady and the Patriots’ ghost. Patrick Mahomes has been chasing Brady for GOAT status, Kelce has battled Rob Gronkowski for the TE crown, and, of course, Andy Reid is trying to chase down Bill Belichick in the win column.

In this moment, it seems Portnoy has let his guard down and just wants to celebrate love.

Whether that’s for the Chiefs or Ohio State is up for interpretation.

What isn’t up for debate is that Portnoy is telling West to go kick rocks. No love lost there.
