The Deadspin Idiots Identify Yogurt
About a week ago, Hamilton invited me to take part in a “yogurt-tasting” video in what I assumed to be a feeble attempt to expand his brand as a guy who consumes and blogs about yogurt. He said it was an “honor” to participate, which was a lie: If you contemplate any food long enough, especially a v...

It's Not Your Responsibility To Make This Easy For Them
A thing you get familiar with, if you ever write critically about the Democratic Party or about its establishment politicians from any perspective located to their left, is people giving you grief for having failed to support the team. “This is why the Democrats will [lose again in 2020/never win/ne...

Sign Up For The Deadspin Newsletter, Then Sign Up Your Enemies

Joe Biden Is A Doddering Old Mummy With A Skull Full Of Dumpster Juice
Joe Biden’s politics are bad and he is a bad candidate. Ordinarily that might be the most important measure of a guy running for national office: That his positions, both as stated and as demonstrated by his decades in national government, amount to a tepid, grey, nutrient-free broth of long-discred...

Antonio Brown And The Raiders Have Conspired To Ruin Every Goddamn Thing
Let us start with a hearty LOL. The Oakland Raiders traded for downfield savant Antonio Brown during the offseason, handed him $30-plus million in guaranteed money, and now stand ready to piss that investment away in the quickest, most Raiders-like fashion possible. Adam Schefter is now reporting th...

Adam Schefter Doing Ads For An NFL Sponsor Is So Embarrassing
ESPN’s Adam Schefter is a reporter who reports on the NFL. That implies certain things, or at least it used to, namely that a reporter should not have a personal financial stake in the NFL, a business they ostensibly cover objectively, making more money. This seems uncontroversial to me, and for dec...

Francisco Cervelli Lands Flying Karate Kick On Base, Somehow Doesn't Get Hurt
Even relative to the brutal baseline of physical punishment that applies to big league catchers, Francisco Cervelli has been through a lot. When the Pittsburgh Pirates put him on release waivers last week, Cervelli was rehabilitating from what was at least the sixth concussion he’s suffered since 20...

<i>Once Upon A Time In Hollywood</i> Is A Fun Movie About Making Shit Up
In 1992, when I would have been 11 years old or so, I went with my family to the theater to see the movie Radio Flyer, starring Elijah Wood and the annoying dinosaur enthusiast kid from Jurassic Park (Joseph Mazzello) as brothers in an abusive household in... probably the late 1950s or early 1960s? ...

Mets Extend Olive Branch To Fans By Limiting Their Ability To Watch The Mets
The Mets are a revolving door of controversy and incompetence, as the most recent New York team to win a pennant(!) has spent the past month (or two, or three...) plagued by internal anger, poor play, and a tendency to kill off ex-players before they actually die. It must be no fun to be a Mets fan ...

Small Child Unimpressed With Dad's One-Handed Catch And Perhaps The Sport Of Baseball
The type of reflexes that people get once they become parents cannot be overstated enough. The latest example of this came during Saturday’s Angels-Mariners game in Seattle. When Luís Rengifo smacked a foul ball into the crowd, a proud Mariners dad lifted his right arm into the air and nonchalantly ...
