Message From the Guest Editor: Checking In
Okay, listen up, douchebags: I don't like you and you don't like me. But thanks to some of the sloppiest play we've seen in World Series baseball since the Marlins beat the Indians we're stuck with each other for the next twelve posts. My name is Balk, and I'm an editor over there at Gawker, a site ...

Deadspin Field Trip: Cardinals Win The World Series
As we might have mentioned once or twice, we were at Busch Stadium to watch our beloved St. Louis Cardinals win their 10th World Series on Friday night. It is obviously a rare and lovely thing for anyone to have the opportunity to watch their team clinch a championship, and we were blessed by the ...
Week In Deadspin: And Now ... To The Cobalt!
• Great job, guys! Have a (small) diet beverage! • Lynn Swann, beer ponger. • It's nice to have Free Darko around here, isn't it? • We like us some Chris Carpenter. • This is the only guy to ever take steroids in the NFL. • And extremely difficult night to be a Tigers fan. • Oh, so this is why peopl...

Deadspin Field Trip: The Rainy (Original) Game 4
As we might have mentioned, we originally had Game 4 tickets, and we sat out in the rain for two hours, freezing, waiting for MLB to put us out of our misery and cancel the game. We had been considering this a dreadful, cursed occurrence, until last night made our Game 4 tickets potential clinchers....
Brady Quinn, Friend To The Gays, Or Just Idol?
In the newest issue of Interview magazine, Notre Dame quarterback Brady Quinn, handsome man of leisure, spreads 'em and smiles big in a big photo feature. Brady looks all playful and chiseled and Notre Dame-y, we guess. You might notice, when you look at the pictures, that Brady is shot rather, oh, ...
The Yearly John Rocker Award
Few baseball fans hate quite as well as fans of the New York Mets. They do it with panache, style, pure vitriol and hard-won experience. Yankees and Red Sox fans are almost too hated themselves to hate with much authority, and other teams' fans are just too nice. (Exception: Phillies fans, whose bli...

What A Beautiful Night At The Ole Ballpark
You know, we're starting to think maybe we're just not supposed to watch a World Series game. Not that sitting out in two hours in freezing rain waiting for FOX to decide whether or not they wanted to pre-empt "Prison Break" next week wasn't fun, but ......
Just In Case Game 4 Happens, We Should Probably Show Up
Yes. We are risking much wrath from Cardinals fans for actually attending this game; our record is far from impressive. But we are talking about the World Series here, and when you get a chance to go to the World Series, you go. We'll apologize in the morning....

Like A Bat Out Of Hell, We'll Be GONE When The Morning Comes!
Because we are a badass road cannon of destruction, we are zooming through the Midwest this week in a silver Chevy Cobalt. (We went to a motocross event in Taylorville, Ill., over the weekend and showed up in this car; this in no way caused us to be mocked, nope.) It's looking incredibly unlikely ...
Donovan McNabb Has A Weak Constitution
Amazingly, Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb did this before Buccaneers kicker Matt Bryant kicked a 62-yard field goal — with room to spare! — to beat his team yesterday....
Everybody's Getting Naked On The Internet These Days
Taking a cue from the success of Redskins.com last season, the Philadelphia Eagles have been streaming postgame interviews with their players on their official Web site. Considering yesterday's difficult loss, you can find plenty of people with plenty to talk about....

Notes From The "Underground"
We would like to take a moment to salute commenters Christ Sabo (who first posited the idea) and twoeightnine (for his brilliant, terrifying designs), along with the rest of you — we particularly liked this MDT post — for your mad, breathtaking work on the ESPN Radio "underground" email from yesterd...
