ESPN: We Don't Want No Trouble

ESPN's new comment section, ESPN Conversation, has been an endless source of entertainment for us, and you as well, we suspect. Specifically the Featured Comment on their home page, which is possibly the blandest thing on the planet. In fact, I doubt that ESPN commenters are even human: Their comments are generated by computer, like the "check engine" light in your dashboard. Here's the one that was up early this morning: More »

ESPN Listens Closely To Its Viewers

You guys up for another internal ESPN memo? Hey, sure, why not? It's fun!

This one's the "Weekly Viewer Report," in which the Leader breaks down its reader feedback for the week. We find it mostly depressing; is the biggest college football complaint from fans still "Disliked female commentators during LSU vs. Tulane game Saturday?" Full memo is after the jump.

Deadspin HOF Nominee: February 1, 2007

We didn't actually notice what was going on at first; we were at the gym, and we made it back to our desk, there were countless emails: You have to check out what's happening on Simmons' column page. The one-time experiment with Simmons' "conversation" — he hasn't had comments on a column since then, though the rest of Page 2 has caved — turned into an explosion, a storming of the gates the likes of which we hadn't seen.

No More "Conversation" On Page 2

As many of you noticed yesterday, our friends at ESPN.com have discontinued ESPN Conversation on its Page 2 columns. They're calling it the end of the "Beta" testing, though we're not sure how much sense that makes: Why would you test something on the most easily-commented upon stories just to push it off to the "news stories" section when you're actually "ready" to launch? What's fun about commenting on news stories? More »

This Comment Has Not Been Rated

Perhaps in response to our curiosity as to why the word "gay" was being blocked from "ESPN Conversation" yesterday, the fine gents at Gelf Magazine called ESPN to find out what the deal was. It's clear they haven't quite worked all the kinks out of Conversation yet. More »

Man, That Commenting Feature Is Totally ####

So after all the fun everybody had with ESPN "Conversation" last week, we thought we'd check back in today and see how it was all going over there. And we found something fascinating: They have a program that specifically censors the word "gay." More »
