Seahawks Message Board Poster Succeeds In Creating Rivalry With The Giants, Fails As Human

On many occasions, team message board trash talk veers toward some very unpleasant depths, but some of the stuff being circulated on the popular Seahawks fan message board "Seahawks Huddle" right now has sparked an amazing amount of negative responses thanks to its unprecedented levels of classlessness.

In an effort to fire Hawks' fans up for October 5th Giants/Seahawks game, one Huddle poster named "Mason" decided the best way to do that was with some good ol' 9/11 trash talk. Ugh.

Giants fans and non-Giants fans unamused by the weak attempt at Seahawks solidarity are rightfully appalled. The original poster, obviously aware that this wasn't the intelligent or human way to stoke this non-rivalry, is scrambling to pull the thread. Unfortunately for Mason, too many people offended by the post already emailed in with the visual evidence and the text. (I'm told he's now writing under a dupe account named "Anguish".)

After the jump, some of the messages taken from the board. Be warned — it's as awful as advertised. More »

Lil' Wayne Brings Much Needed Grizzy Element To ESPN

The rapper personally responsible for rejuvenating hip hop has now cashed in a huge chunk of his street credibility for a chance to blog for ESPN. His first entry was published today ( Title: AARON RODGERS 'HAS BEEN WONDERFUL') and it's surprisingly more coherent than many of Stephen A. Smith's face-typed ramblings. But it's still probably not going to make anyone who works at ESPN less terrified of him. Actually, based on the editor's note introducing the item, it appears that's precisely the reason they published it to begin with: More »

A Little Yankee Stadium Nostalgia, Part II

They said goodbye to Yankee Stadium on Sunday, and even Woody Allen was there; and when he shows up at a party, you know it's important. On Friday we asked for you to give us your favorite stories connected to YS, and you came through in impressive — and in some cases downright terrifying — fashion. We posted a bunch of 'em on Friday, but there were so many good ones that we held some over for today. One reader even reminded me of this, which is one of the best Yankee Stadium stories of all.

So here are your Yankee Stadium memories, Part Deux. And then we're done, promise. If I didn't use yours, my apologies. It's not that I didn't like your story; it's just that the police may want to use it as evidence in your trial. More »

So, Yankee Stadium Takes This No Moving During "God Bless America"-Thing Rather Seriously

Remember a little more than a year ago when George Steinbrenner, inflated with patriotic fervor, imposed a laughable rule that instructed security officials to ban anyone from "excessive movement" during the 7th inning rendition of "God Bless America." Granted, most New Yorkers seemingly abide by it, but sometimes the system must be tested by one man's agnosticism and patriotic indifference. Oh, and he had to piss. More »

Eli Manning's Wedding Reception

Manning "Reception" Is Everything You'd Imagine It Would Be

Sadly, there are no Village People moments like Brady Quinn had at his sister's wedding to A.J. Hawk, but if you do scroll through the lovely photo album, there are plenty of Manning-like moments that will clearly be cherished always. The New York Giants' quarterback appears to be coming out of his shell a little bit — that's what a Super Bowl victory will do to a man. More »

Sean Avery's Internship At Vogue Begins

When we first heard that Rangers left wing Sean Avery was going to intern for Vogue magazine this summer, once the Rangers were finally eliminated from the playoffs, we assumed it was a joke, or some stunt meant to get Avery a seat next to that weird lady with the crazy glasses at Roger Federer matches. But nope: Apparently Avery's really working there. More »

It Can Be Told: Spitzer Dribbled Before He Shot

David Hirshey writes regularly for Deadspin about soccer.

Let's face it: The media hasn't exactly been shy about exploring every orifice of the Eliot Spitzer-Ashley Dupre story. Except one. Yes, it turns out, the disgraced former Governor of New York, who enjoyed "dangerous sex" with the 22-year-old hooker/r&b singer/top swimsuit model/cokehead also played soccer. He is yet another in the long line of celebrities like Jon Stewart, Steve Nash and Osama Bin Laden who long ago embraced the beautiful game. More »
