Tom Wilson has had a pretty eventful return to the Capitals since an arbitrator reduced his suspension today and made him eligible to play tonight against the Wild. First, Wilson scored a goal and picked up a goaltender interference penalty on the same play. (It looked more like he was pushed than any intentional…
I’m not going to subject you to this entire embarrassing conspiracy theory-pushing thread posted tonight by bloodless dipshit Marco Rubio—a man who would finish off the podium in a Marco Rubio lookalike contest—but I would like to draw as much attention as possible to the fact that Rubio tried to pander to ostensible…
After four games, reigning chess world champion Magnus Carlsen and his American challenger Fabiano Caruana are deadlocked at two points each. Each of the four games they’ve played has ended in a tie, and today’s draw was the shortest (and most boring) of the bunch, as it only took two-and-a-half hours and 34 moves.…
Capital One’s Venture card has always been a bit of a hybrid between cash back and travel rewards cards. While you could earn a lot of points through Hotels.com, and erase travel purchases from your credit card statement by redeeming them, you couldn’t transfer them to any airline programs like you could points from …
In an attempt to burnish their brand in the eyes of the nation’s population of shrieking nine-year-olds who steal their mothers’ credit cards to cosplay John Wick in a bad video game, the NFL has partnered with Fortnite and released a bunch of official skins and other crap. Predictably, players immediately used their…
Thank you for your continued support of Deadspin. And the whole world fades.Â
A former Michigan State football employee whose contract wasn’t renewed after police said he investigated a sexual assault complaint made against several football players without reporting it is suing the university.

We see a lot of deals around the web over on Kinja Deals, but these were our ten favorites today.
Draymond Green and Kevin Durant had themselves a nice spat Monday night over some bad decision-making by Green in the final seconds of regulation, a game that the Warriors lost to the Clippers in overtime. Earlier today, ESPN’s Marc J. Spears and Adrian Wojnarowski reported that the conflict continued into the locker…
The upcoming Monday night game between the Rams and Chiefs will not be at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City, because the field is crappy and falling apart due to rain, as well as a Shakira concert. The NFL is moving the matchup to Los Angeles:
Le’Veon Bell’s 4 p.m. deadline to report to the Steelers came and went, which means Bell cannot play at all during the 2018 season. It also means Bell has forfeited the entirety of the $14.54 million salary he was scheduled to make on the franchise tag, plus a reported $200,000 more in benefits. He had already given…

Serena Williams appeared on the cover of GQ this week as the magazine’s 2018 Woman of the Year. The issue had four covers. On hers, the word “Men” had been crossed out, with “Woman” scribbled above in quotation marks. Some observers, including New York Times tennis writer Ben Rothenberg, were puzzled by this use of…
Back in 2016, we introduced you to the photos of Roman Fedortsov, a deep-sea fisherman who posts his discoveries to Twitter and Instagram. The monsters he pulls from the deep are horrifying, to say the least. So it seems like a good time to check back in with Fedorstov’s social media.
Today, we’re talking about woke Axl Rose, salt, rich assholes who exercise a lot, and more.
Last year, British rapper Big Shaq took the world by storm with an incredible freestyle performance during which he posed and solved a series of math equations mid-rap. It’s taken a while, but someone has finally surpassed Big Shaq’s show of numerical genius with even quicker, more complex maths. That someone is…
Sports media is full of companies scamming writers into working for “exposure,” selling largely young and naive people on the shiny specter of how great of an opportunity it is to write about sports on the internet for little or no money. Bleacher Report pioneered this business model, SB Nation mastered it, FanSided…
