Donald Trump's Weird Teeth Create The Worst Possible Combination Of Images And Sounds
It’s rude of me to do this, but I’m going to ask that you both watch and listen to this clip of Donald Trump giving a speech today, in which our wet, slurring load of a president seems to be struggling to keep his own teeth in his mouth:...
Just Use The Horse Shampoo
Here’s the thing about head hair: You have to clean and condition it all the time. It’s a mindless process that becomes fairly annoying when, like me, you have long, thick hair....

Thanks to Brendan Karet and Dave Weigel, the Deadspin staff has spent the last half hour or so watching this video of a husky man in business casual wailing away on some meat, and then following the Youtube rabbit hole down to, uh, more videos of What If Game Of Thrones But Middle Management?...
Thomas The Tank Engine Can Pull Some Gnarly Tricks<em></em>
Thomas the Tank Engine, as a children’s book and TV series, may be vaguely authoritarian, but as a toy, it’s weirdly entertaining. Watch in awe (or at least with surprisingly strong interest) as the locomotive does totally sick tricks like a 50-50 grind, or a barrel roll onto a parallel track. ...
Jared Goff's Audibles Include "Ric Flair" And "Tupac"
Rams QB Jared Goff was mic’d up during the team’s 33-7 win over the Houston Texans on Sunday, which allowed everyone to learn some of L.A.’s audibles. Head coach Sean McVay and his coaches seem to have chosen a celebrity-heavy assortment. Here they are, courtesy of USA Today’s Cameron DaSilva:...

There's Carey Price Injury Drama Again
Canadiens goalie Carey Price has an overall save percentage of .877 and hasn’t looked like himself all season. He hasn’t played at all since Nov. 2, when he gave up five goals against Minnesota in a 6-3 loss. The team initially ruled Price as day-to-day with a “lower body injury,” but now it’s a li...

Australians Have Once Again Gone Wild At The Melbourne Cup
Today is Melbourne Cup day, the most wonderful time of the year, the designated and officially sanctioned horserace/alcohol drinking competition when thousands and thousands of Aussies dress up in their finest duds and get blitzed while intrepid photographers capture it all in order to delight of th...
Here Are Some Young NBA Players Who Are Butt
Many of the NBA youths are fun and good. Kristaps Porzingis, Ben Simmons, et cetera. Good youths. But in addition to the fun and good ones, there are also some youths who are sorry butt scrubs. Here is a list of some of that latter group....
The Giants Gave Up A Touchdown On Third And 33
It doesn’t get any easier for a defense than third and 33. Play as conservative as possible, keep everyone in front of you, and there’s no way the offense should be able to gain all they need....
The NFL's Players Won
Wherever this goes from here—continued player protests during the national anthem; actual reform-oriented initiatives sponsored by the NFL; more diaper-filling from the president of the United States—one obvious takeaway from this week’s league meetings here in Manhattan is that the players showed h...
Craig Shakespeare Fired By Leicester City
To keep, or not to keep. That was the question. Whether ‘twas nobler in the mind of Leicester City’s board to suffer under a popular but mediocre manager just because his presence and style called to mind the glory days of a yore, or if the club should shit-can him in an effort to hopefully live up ...
Bruce Arena, Who Should Have Been Fired And Sent To The Woods, Allowed To Resign

How The NFL Lost Its Mind And Its Nerve On Anthem Protests
The NFL’s approach to players protesting racial injustice during the national anthem has moved to a whole new level of attempting to please everyone.

Roger Goodell Says In The Blandest Way Possible That He Wants All NFL Players To Stand For The Anthem
In the NFL, there are no spectrums. There are only polarities. Star or bust. Locker room guy or distraction. Truck or trailer. Divided or united....

A New Jersey man is facing criminal charges and has gotten his family a lifetime from a pee wee football league after allegedly putting a 16-year-old coach in a chokehold because he was frustrated that his son had been rotated out of the quarterback position....
The USMNT Can't Afford To Lose
The United States Men’s National Team has two games left in CONCACAF World Cup Qualifying, two games against teams that, by all accounts, the USMNT should not have any problems dispatching. Trinidad & Tobago have gotten owned more or less nonstop throughout the Hex, and Panama were lousy enough to l...
Alejandro Villanueva Didn't Want Any Of This
Steelers offensive lineman and former Army Ranger Alejandro Villanueva, who stood for the national anthem before Sunday’s game even though head coach Mike Tomlin had stated all his players would stay in the locker room to avoid making any sort of statement, said Monday that he deeply regrets how his...
