Jerome Simpson Stuck The Landing In Your NFL Highlight Of The Season
From takeoff to landing, this is one of the most remarkable touchdowns you'll see scored in any season of the National Football League. Jerome Simpson's leap calls for a superlative version of "elevate," but sticking the landing makes this the clip you'll be seeing for decades. [FOX] ...

2011 Deadspin Hall Of Fame Nominee: A.J. Daulerio
He ruined Deadspin. He's no Will Leitch. He's the worst man in sports. He sat on top of a toilet for GQ. He dropped acid. And now he's taking his act across the room to ruin Gawker. Dick....

2011 Deadspin Hall Of Fame Nominee: Penn State
Sandusky. Paterno. The whistle that no one blew. The sweatpants riots and the sad, sad bros and the news van tipped over like some sort of Holstein cow. Penn State was horror and farce, all at once—the whole range of human folly on display. 1-800-REALITY, indeed....
ESPN Really Doesn't Know Where Champaign, Ill., Is

2011 Deadspin Hall Of Fame Nominee: Bill Simmons
He picked a fight with Charlie Pierce. He started Grantland. He scooped up our pal Katie Baker. He shamelessly hopped on the Bruins bandwagon. He told ESPN to go fuck itself. He expressed regrets about Grantland before it even launched. He almost poached the guy who's now running our little corner ...
Readers: Tell Us Where To Watch Sports While Eating Chinese On Dec. 25
Christmas is on Sunday, and while most public activity shuts down so the Christians and semi-Christians can worship American consumerism and baby Jesus, our nation's Jews will be eating Chinese food and watching hoops like it's just another Hanukkah weekend. What a world!...
2011 Deadspin Hall Of Fame Nominee: Brett Favre
The Dongslinger finally called it quits in the past year, but not without great fanfare. We did our most recent HOF inductions in September 2010, just before the world saw his penis. It was an episode that touched off something of a national conversation about dong shots, and it earned Favre a $50,...

2011 Deadspin Hall Of Fame Nominee: Metta World Peace
The hoopster formerly known as Ron Artest has been a joy to behold this year. From prank-calling radio stations to helping reporters with marriage proposals to senselessly clotheslining J.J. Barea to his mastery of the art of avoiding questions to public-service announcements with wild animals to c...
Gifts For People Who Read Books
When we have time, we at Deadspin like to read (and also sometimes write) books. These are the books we read and wrote this year that we think would make a great, last-minute gift for any literate people you might know, or even as a special treat for yourself....
Counterpoint: Charlie Brown Is Bigger Than Jesus
Gosh, somebody is taking a supposedly beloved holiday ritual and saying it's really awful and depressing. Who ever had that idea before? Oh, right: Charlies Schulz....
Fuck You, Charlie Brown
Every year you watch A Charlie Brown Christmas, and every year you come away depressed. You're a real asshole, Charlie Brown. Originally published Dec. 9, 2010. Read Tom Scocca's counterpoint: "Charlie Brown Is Bigger Than Jesus."...
Christmas Hype Will Drive Your Children To Insanity
Christmas is four days away. I know this because my kids have been counting down the days since, I dunno, LAST goddamn Christmas. Children have boring lives. They have to go to school all day. They have to listen to adults tell them what to do. They can't watch porn. It blows. Christmas is one of th...
