Barstool is a terrible meatball site, but lots of athletes are "buddies" with the guys on there. I know Jay Cutler has been on their podcast in the past because he's a big fan, and BarstoolBigCat was joking around on twitter with Greg Olsen the other day because of some controversial call in a charity softball game they both played in. The Boston guys are awful on twitter, but the Chicago guys are pretty fun, IMO. I'm not saying this is for sure true, but my guess is that there's something to this.
