Dave Portnoy is a big fan of Dave Grohl …but he can’t understand why the Foo Fighters frontman would pick a fight with Taylor Swift – counting TMZ Sports he believes the pop star is the real highlight on stage.
The Barstool Sports founder — who’s been very vocal about his love for T-Swift — weighed in on the music industry’s newest feud this week… and said going after Swifties’ “mother” is a fuse you don’t want light up in the first place, but especially when it comes to your performance skills.

In case you missed it, the Foos were playing a show across the pond in London over the weekend — right in the middle of Taylor’s takeover in the same city. While onstage, Grohl referenced the “Eras” tour and then said that mistakes can happen when musicians actually perform music live — implying that the pop star’s shows are mostly backed by recordings.
While fans at Grohl’s concert applauded his statement, Swifties certainly developed some bad blood with Grohl. Pres knows these fans aren’t the ones to mess with… explaining that they won’t play well when defending Taylor.
“If the Swifties come for your throat, burn your house down, that’s what happens when you come after the Swifties in the middle of a show,” Portnoy said with a shrug.
The president knows this — he attended Swift’s tour in May 2023, so he saw her rock the stage with his own eyes.

Portnoy – who also spoke to us earlier this week about his second One-Bite Pizza Festival – I wanted to make it clear… he likes Grohl and the Foo Fighters – but the rocker’s comments may not be worth it in the end.
“I don’t know why you shot,” Portnoy said. “Don’t cry to me if they come after you.”
