Rico Bosco Names New Arch-Enemy On Pick Em Week 4

By JR·2 min read

TLDR: Week 4 of Barstool Pick Em premiered Wednesday night with Rico Bosco naming a new arch-enemy and admitting on air that he uses burner accounts to keep tabs on the people he has blocked.

The best moment might not even be the reveal. At one point the talk turned to how Rico keeps an eye on people he has blocked, and he admitted he uses burner accounts to check what they're up to. Blocking someone is supposed to be the final word. Rico blocks you and then logs into a second account to see what you posted for lunch. Dave is on the panel for it, and he gets a good laugh out of the whole thing.

This is why Rico works on Pick Em. The picks matter and the DraftKings slip gets read at the end, but the show lives or dies on the guys at the table giving each other grief. Rico brings a grudge every week. Over back-to-back episodes he has turned his back on Big Cat and now named a brand-new nemesis, all within the first month of the season.
What happens next is easy to predict. Whoever Rico just named is going to answer back, probably on camera. And somewhere a burner account is going to be watching that response very closely. Week 5 has a lot to live up to.
Rico Bosco's enemies list keeps growing, and at this point it deserves its own segment. Week 3 of Pick Em went out under the title "Rico Snaps & Turns His Back on Big Cat," which tells you where things stood 7 days ago. One week later Rico has a whole new name to be mad at. The show's handicapping is almost a side plot now. People are tuning in for the feuds.

The episode's own title gave away the headline before anyone pressed play. Rico has a new arch-enemy. Watch the episode to see who it is. We're not going to guess at a name the clips don't give us, and the fun is hearing Rico lay out the case himself anyway.
