A Barstool Sports employee is taking heat for some disturbing comments about Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott following the team’s Monday night loss to the Denver Broncos.
The Bills took a costly “12 men on the field” penalty that nullified Wil Lutz’s missed goal attempt in the waning seconds. Denver’s kicker got a second chance to play hero, and he booted the ball through the uprights to secure a stunning 24-22 win for the Broncos.
After the Bills’ heartbreaking loss, a viral video surfaced of a Barstool Sports employee flipping out and saying that he hopes McDermott dies in a plane crash. (WARNING: VIDEO BELOW CONTAINS LANGUAGE THAT IS NSFW):

Plenty of sports fans get overly emotional and forget that it’s simply a game. It’s one thing to be frustrated with your team losing, but saying something like this is way out of line and not cool in any way.

Buffalo lost just three games a year ago but now can’t finish any better than 12-5. They’ll try to get back on track when they host the AFC East rival New York Jets at Highmark Stadium this Sunday.
