This DJ Who Interviewed Bobby Brown's Nephew Is The Actual Antichrist
Before we get into this, I just want to state for the record and for my mother that I am of the opinion that this video is actually too raw for Deadspin. We've published real, actual porn on Deadspin. We've published scores of dicks, and some vaginas besides, and a respectable amount of butt action ...
The Guy Who Plays The Sixers' New Mascot Hates Philly And The Sixers
The garbage-ass Philadelphia 76ers unveiled a new mascot earlier this month, perhaps hoping that a big fake dog named Franklin would distract fans from the historically bad product that the organization is putting on the floor every night. Unfortunately for the team, some internet sleuthing has reve...

The 76ers Might Have Also Traded Away Their Heating System [Update]
The Pacers are in Philadelphia to play the 76ers tonight, and they practiced in a frigid arena, because the heat wasn't on, for some reason. Ask Sam Hinkie if he shipped it for an unprotected first-round pick in 2018....
At Long Last The 76ers Accept That, Yes, It's Finally Time To Rebuild
You can imagine the bittersweet mixture of sadness, gratitude, and relief 76ers fans must be feeling this evening. Today, in a flurry of moves executed just before the NBA's annual trading deadline, general manager and president of basketball operations Sam Hinkie finally pulled the plug on a belove...
The 76ers Are Run By A Ridiculous TED-Humping Moron
One startling scene serves as the crux of ESPN writer Pablo Torre's very good magazine feature about the braintrust of the Philadelphia 76ers. In it, the general manager of a rival Eastern Conference team calls together a motley assembly of coaches, scouts, media relations experts, retired spies,...

Kind Of Weird: How <i>The Köln Concert </i>Made Keith Jarrett A Pop Star
The most improbably exhilarating record I've ever heard was recorded 40 years ago, at a special late show in the Cologne Opera House, in front of a youthful capacity crowd. It's likely the only opera-related album I've ever listened to more than once, but that's fitting, since few of the 1,400 you...
Defense, Played The 76ers Way
Anybody want to guard Jeff Green? Anybody? No?...
Basketball Is Dead. The Knicks And Sixers Murdered It.
All the precious, fragile, bitterly-won gains of humankind's wretched, fitful, brave, millennia-long upward struggle went up in white-hot magnesium flames last night in Philadelphia and burned away to powder. All for nothing. All fantasies, every damn one. The Knicks and Sixers have shown us ours...
Joel Embiid: I'm Not Fat And I Do Care
Over the weekend, a report came out claiming Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid was fat and unmotivated while he recovered from a foot injury. Embiid disputed those claims last night....
Report: Joel Embiid Is Fat And Doesn't Care
The main focus of this season's 76ers is their constant, intentional failure, but here's some news about one of the players they actually care about: Joel Embiid. He's reportedly flabby and not following his conditioning....
K.J. McDaniels's Mom Is The Best Sports Mom
The 76ers beat the Magic in Orlando last night, a fact that was of very little concern to Sixers shooting guard K.J. McDaniels's mom, who was in attendance and continued to demonstrate that she couldn't give less of a shit about the Sixers, and just wants to see her son ball....
NBA Shit List: The Philadelphia 76ers, Who Are Capitalism's Diarrhea
Something confounding is happening in Philadelphia. The meanest, vilest, prosthetic-leg-stealingest fanbase in American sports has gone soft for its garbage basketball team, apparently because management promised them a present if they'll all just behave and eat their garbage basketball each nig...
Chicago Sports Anchor To Bears: Drop Jay Cutler, Or Kill Yourselves
ABC 7 sports anchor Mark Giangreco went in on Jay Cutler and the Bears last night, calling for ownership to fire everyone, basically. He chose an, um, interesting chyron to really hammer home how dire the situation is. ...
Spinal Tap IRL: The Brief, Sordid Reign Of '70s-Rock Legends UFO
Let's try something here. Here's a song called "Hot and Ready," by the band UFO. Give it a listen....
76ers Get First Win, Are Still A Cynical And Indescribably Awful Fraud
The Philadelphia 76ers managed to beat the Minnesota Timberwolves last night, bringing their season record to 1-17 and avoiding tying the record for most consecutive losses to start a season. They remain the grossest team in the NBA....
The Time Manute Bol Hit Six Three-Pointers In A Half
Reader Max sent along this video because he'd never seen it before, never even heard of one of the weirdest NBA happenings of all time, and he thought more people should see it. I support that sentiment entirely: everyone should watch highlights of the night 22 years ago when 7-foot-7 Manute Bol dec...
Let's Laugh At The Sixers Playing Completely Hapless Defense
I've been watching this on loop for a good 10 minutes, and I just now noticed that while Damian Lillard is just hanging out, probably trying to figure out if he's somehow gained the ability to freeze time, Wes Matthews is also wide fucking open in the corner. Lillard could have said, "No, this w...
The Moment Chicago Radio Hosts Found Out On The Air That They Were Fired
We mentioned this while it was happening yesterday, but it's another thing altogether to see video of Chicago sports radio hosts trying to doing their show as they learn their entire station is going to be shut down....
K.J. McDaniels's Mom Is Sick And Tired Of The Sixers Tanking
The tanking-ass Sixers are gross and bad, and this fact has not gone unnoticed by Sixers guard K.J. McDaniels's mom. Recently, she took to Twitter to let people know that she does not appreciate the Sixers' bullshit....
