Spring Breaker Starts Fight, Flees, Receives Karmic Comeuppance
It's hard to believe that the knob in this video, who embodies every spring break stereotype—neon tank top, bad sandals, dumb sunglasses, urging other bros to come at him while he backs away—is even real, but here we are. I won't spoil what happens, but get ready to wish you had been there to laugh ...
Lots Of Athletes Are Identically Excited About This Mediocre Movie
That Angelina Jolie-produced movie about Olympic runner and World War II P.O.W. Louis Zamperini comes out on Blu-ray today. Know how we know? The totally organic announcements from a whole mess of athletes (as noticed by Dave Lozo):...
What Would You Pick If You Had To Drink The Same Three Beers Forever?
Yesterday afternoon some kindly internet stranger asked me what local beers I recommend he stock up on during his next trip to my home state. I refused to answer him on the grounds that Massachusetts is no mere "state"—we are a proud commonwealth of men and women united by loyalty to our official ...
How To Eat At A Fancy Restaurant As Though You Belong There
I get it. Your favorite restaurant is Big Chuck's Grilled Meat Wagon, parked between The Noodle Truck and The Taco Truck down at the daily lunchtime curbside bazaar of food trucks. Fine. I, too, love Big Chuck's selection of grilled meats. He's got some quality meats down there on the wagon, no one ...
Chill Dude Crashes Warriors Postgame Show, Does "Electric Zombie" Dance
This happened after Friday's game between the Pelicans and Warriors, but it was just brought to our attention by a friend of the hairy, dancing gent in the clip above. I become more and more jealous that I am not a Warriors fan with each passing day....
Pliny The Elder And Blind Pig: Trophy Beers Within Everyone's Grasp
First off, let me introduce myself: My name is Mike, and I have been given the dubious honor of being named Drunkspin's West Coast Beer Correspondent, which means that every now and then you'll see some writing on a beer that Will Gordon either can't get up in Massachusetts, or can't, like, get up...
Nikola Mirotic Is Balling
Bulls rookie forward Nikola Mirotic went for 28 points and eight rebounds in a win against the Hornets last night, a performance that he punctuated by banking one on Jason Maxiell's head. Mirotic's minutes have been fluctuating like crazy throughout the season, but Tom Thibodeau is finally starting ...
Deadcast: Peter King Talks To Roger Goodell, Accomplishes Nothing
So Peter King landed an interview with Roger Goodell (I know… I'm as shocked by his journalistic coup as you are) and the commissioner took the opportunity to spew out a bunch of boilerplate Roger Goodell nonsense: blanket declarations of self-assurance, private police forces, bullshit concussion st...
Villanova Piccolo Player Appears On Fallon, Plays With The Roots
It's been a whirlwind weekend for crying Villanova piccolo player Roxanne Chalifoux, but her international stardom led to a few perks tonight as the emotion-stricken Pittsburgh-area native appeared on The Tonight Show—taking home some swag (including Taylor Swift tickets, which almost made her cry a...
Did Bill Simmons Make A Fool Of Himself On <i>WWE Raw</i>?
Bill Simmons joined Snoop Dogg as a special guest on tonight's WWE Raw, and if that sounds like the dumbest thing in the world to you, you'd be right. Simmons didn't even take a bump, which is some weak bullshit. Even worse, it appears Simmons may have broken kayfabe by inquiring about the of-late a...
ESPN's Sports Business Reporter Doesn't Understand Sports Or Business
We enjoy making fun of ESPN sports business reporter Darren Rovell, and do so a lot around these parts, because he is a brandbot and a doofus. For the most part, he's harmless, doing nothing worse than publicly embarrassing himself in novel and hilarious ways. ...
Deadspin Up All Night: She Didn't Believe Me
Thank you for your continued support of Deadspin. Let's take this one slow....
Future Is The Hardest-Working Guy In Rap
Atlanta rapper Future hasn't slept much this year. He's put out three mixtapes since October, is currently working on another, and at this rate is Lil B-level prolific, but with more songs that actually make it in the pocket. You don't even have to like Future to appreciate the insanity of that lev...
Don't Coat Your Innards With Space Oil To Conserve Ketchup
You know how there's always a little bit of ketchup that you never quite get out of the bottle? It coats the inside; even if you do the thing where you stand the bottle on its head for 24 hours to let it all ooze down close to the nozzle, some of it never comes out, and goes in the trash....
Cute Dog Is So Incredibly Bad At Catching Food
We've seen some good doggies who are bad at catching things before, but none of those doggies have reached the heights of ineptitude that Fritz achieves in this video. ...
Kevin Love Says His Relationship With LeBron Is Fine. It's Fine.
Cavaliers power forward Kevin Love was a guest on Mike & Mike this morning, and he was of course asked to describe his relationship with teammate and sub-tweeter LeBron James. According to Love, their relationship is fine. It's fine....
Commercial Shandies Are For Suckers. Drink This Beer Instead.
Beer is very useful. In just the past few days I have relied on beer to help me relate to my fellow man, to make college basketball interesting, and to wean me off my Tylenol PM addiction. Beer can also be used to liven up an otherwise limp pot of whatever-bean chili, to repair a dicey relationshi...
Eric Gordon Faceplants, Loses His Tooth
This is Pelicans shooting guard Eric Gordon stumbling, faceplanting, and then realizing that the thing he heard skittering out onto the floor is in fact a big ol' chunk of his tooth....
