Wilma McNabb Wafts Blog Fart in Middle of Garcia Frenzy
Well, this was bound to happen. At the height of Iggles mania, Wilma McNabb, mother to Eagle's injured starting quarterback Donovan McNabb has posted her thoughts about all the excitement surrounding Jeff Garcia's ascension into the greats of Philadelphia folk hero-dom. (You know with Pat Ryan and...
Big Ups to the Jews
Thanks for the tips, fellas. This day will go a lot smoother now on all fronts. And thanks Muselix!...
RAD: Greatest. Movie. Ever.
When Will asked if I was interested in being a guest editor for a day, I said, yes, but only on one condition: I was allowed to do a post about RAD ... the Greatest. Movie. Ever. Unfortunately, for some of you at least, Will told me to go crazy and write whatever the hell I wanted too. Woops!...
Good Morning, Deadspinners
My name is Justin Everest Skeets III — street name: J.E. Skeets — and rumor has it I'll be your threed thurd third substitute teacher this post-turkey week. (I'm sorry.)...
Well, You All Look Familiar
Good morning, campers. I'll be your second substitute teacher of the week while Will's out mourning the passing of James Brown. Now, I'm no Will Leitch, but the good news is that you don't have to get used to a new captain on this ship. I've been around before. I know the lay of the land, and I like...
Tony Romo Cockblocks A Deadspin Commenter
In last month's Deadspin thread discussing the three Thanksgiving NFL games, commenter Wingman said the following:...
Who Works On The Day After Christmas?
If you notice this week that the word "I" makes its appearance where you'd expect to see "we," that's because our friendly editor, Will Leitch, is taking some much-deserved time off. My name is Michael David Smith and I'm the first pinch hitter. If you'd like to know more about me, I write for Foo...
Yzerman Is Our Bitch
So I don't know if you saw this, but... we're kind of a big deal. The latest ESPN the Magazine has Deadspin (well, not really) as the 25th biggest sports story of the year. Not as big as Jason McElwain at #22, but bigger than Steve Yzerman at #26. Sorry, Stevie. That's just the way it goes someti...
Week In Deadspin: That's The News, And We Are Outta Here
• A difficult morning for Dontrelle Willis. • Meet the Crimson Hawk. • Any excuse to use the tag! • This matchup is not as close as we thought it might be. • That's a tough way to be eliminated from the Asian Games. • The best in stretcher-related injuries. • Tony Dungy ... HANDSOME! • Desmond How...
You'll Shoot Your Eye Out
Only one thing in the world could have dragged us away from the soft glow of electric sex gleaming in the window....
We're Going To Wally World!
Someone asked us the other day whether or not our job was stressful. We thought about it for a moment and told them that our job is only stressful when we're not doing it. Doing Deadspin is the most fun thing we do; the only time it stresses us out is when we're away from the computer and terrifie...
ESPN Has Learned This Post Was Just Written
We were traveling yesterday afternoon — we're back in Mattoon for the holidays — so we weren't able to give this the attention it probably deserved. So allow us to correct that now....
Iverson, The Day After
What is left for the City of Brotherly Love, in the wake of the Allen Iverson trade yesterday? Jeff Garcia? Actually ... yeah, Jeff Garcia! Even the Flyers have lost a franchise-record seven straight. Darren Daulton, Philadelphia needs your time machine now more than ever....
Iverson Finally Traded ... To The Nuggs!
Well, we suppose that makes sense: When your superstar is suspended 15 games for throwing a punch at someone named Mardy, the only real recuse you have is to go out and get yourself another superstar....
The Last Worthy MNF Game, We Suspect
In what should be an awfully fun and hopefully high-scoring Monday night game, the Indianapolis Colts and the Cincinnati Bengals, teams going in the ole "opposite directions" storyline. This being the NFL, everyone will forget the storylines once, you know, they actually play a game....
Congratulations, Suzy Kolber Kissers
The voting has concluded at the 2006 Weblog Awards, and your winner is will be... Kissing Suzy Kolber, a site that's been mentioned here on Deadspin once or twice. The results haven't been made final or official, and they won't be until Monday. I guess they want some extra time to check for ballot...
Week In Deadspin: Rockin' The Local 138
• We like to listen to John Rocker talk. Jeff Pearlman? Not so much. • Miami-FIU. What could possibly go wrong? • When Joey Porter and Kellen Winslow feud, it's a catfight, MEOW! • Joel Zumaya has BLISTAS ON HIS FINGAS! • Welcome back leather! (And no Berman jokes here!) PETA is not happy. • It's li...
We Always Thought It'd Be Better To Be A Fake Somebody Than A Real Nobody
No matter what you do, no matter how awful ... no one ever thinks that they're a bad person....
Hey, Somebody Wake Up Jordan Already
As we enter Day, what, 15? of the Where's Iverson Gonna Get Traded? countdown — we think it's a shame they can't find a way to get him to Minnesota, and we can't fathom why it makes sense to send him to Boston — we look back at yesterday's big news. Supposedly, Iverson turned down a trade to the Cha...
