It is a sad, sad day here at Deadspin world headquarters; without even the courtesy of a press release or a proper burial, it appears ESPN.com has finally shut the doors on its ill-advised "Page 3" section. More »

MTV channels its inner Page 3 today, looking at the worst music offerings from professional athletes. (We're going to assume "ESPN Hollywood" has done this story about six times.) More »

The handsome man pictured here is Jim Morgenthaler, an employee of ESPN and the "Draft Day Commissioner" of ESPN's Fantasy Game Night. Handsome fellow, we know. Why do we bring him up? Because he's currently the centerpiece of ESPN.com's Page 3, proof that the oft-forgotten page is still alive and kicking with its unique fusion of sports and Hollywood Gossip! Who says sports and entertainment don't mix? Look at that guy! More »

We don't mean to be mean. We really don't. But to pull a Tom Joad for a moment, as long as Page 3 keeps publishing stories and delaying its inevitable death, dammit, we'll be there. More »

The impending death of Page 3 is not something from which we take much enjoyment. The closings of sites tend to make people lose their jobs, and even though the full-time staff at Page 3 is, at tops, one (and that's probably being optimistic). But still: The death bell be just about to be rung-ded. More »

Well, it's Friday, so that must mean it's time for Page 3's editors to remember that they're, in fact, editors and update their "page." To show they mean business, they actually post two stories today. (We know!) More »

Page 3 continues its slow, underfunded, rotting flop toward death they have to be averaging like three stories a week with an interview with Jon Bon Jovi. The dramatically maned one talks about ownership of AFL's Philadelphia Soul (his co-owner is Ron Jaworski!), his gripping performance in NBC's "Las Vegas" and his existential crisis (really). Only one worthy tidbit here: Last year, Bon Jovi fired the Soul's coach. Imagine being a football coach who is fired by Jon Bon Jovi. Perhaps that's a sign for a career change. More »
]]> http://deadspin.com/index.php?op=postcommentfeed&postId=108843&view=rss&microfeed=true In its neverending pursuit of Finding The Way Athletes REALLY are, ESPN's Page 3 asks C-List sports stars what their favorite television shows were. (Mercifully, none of them said "Teammates." We might have had to kill someone.) It's news you can use, people. Red Sox lefthander Mike Myers loved "M*A*S*H." Cubs "closer" Ryan Dempster digged "Night Court." Reporter Louise Cornetta definitely earns her salary by learning that Red Sox righthander Matt Clement's wife "really liked 'Friends.'" We cap it all off with Mel Kiper, Jr., who was really into "Dallas." You now have experience the Internet equivalent of spinning around in a circle on your lawn for an hour. More »
