BAH GAWD, KING, HE DROPPED HIM WITH THE SUPLEX
That's an offensive player!...
Anyone Want This Timberwolves Ticket? No? OK.
This photo, taken by Reddit user SmoothWay, appears to show a free ticket, face value of $40 or so, for tonight's T-Wolves home opener, if anyone wants it. Does anyone want it? Has it been taken yet? Is there any excitement for a team that has the last two No. 1 picks? Surely someone is at least int...
James Ennis Gave Us Our First Great Posterization Of The Season
Here are the thoughts I had while watching this dunk:...
The SEC Really Does Benefit From Media Bias In Polls
This past week, four of the top five teams in the Associated Press College Football Poll hailed from the SEC West Division. Nebraska coach Bo Pelini, among others, wondered aloud whether ESPN's ownership of the brand-new SEC network, which launched this year, might be responsible for such a coinci...
You Have To See These Indonesian Soccer Dudes Throw This Match
Words like "unbelievable" are thrown around too often in sports, but the highlight video above and especially the extended clips below of two Indonesian soccer teams throwing a match is exactly what the word unbelievable was meant to express. But then you realize that they're doing so to maybe save ...
Florida State Just Taking A Stroll In Front Of Joe's Crab Shack
We've given Florida State its share of grief today, but it's important to remember that not all scandals are created equal. There are felonies, and there are misdemeanors (though college football coverage often swirls those two together like mixers in a glass). There are the ones that make you say, ...
Bill Belichick Likely To Study Tape Of His Slaying Of Reporter
We've gone over this before, but Bill Belichick's adept at letting reporters draw out their questions before he shuts them down with curt answers. (It's entertaining, if your job isn't covering the Patriots.) Naturally, the media wanted to talk about Peyton Manning vs. the Patriots today, and Belich...
Can American Des Linden Win The NYC Marathon?
I like Des Linden. I like her to throw it down for the win at this weekend's NYC Marathon. Reason is, in running's top echelon, Linden has only been blessed, and it's sort of a dubious blessing, with the ability to work hard. She has ground and scrapped and relentlessly gutted out every second's imp...
Even Carlo Ancelotti Wishes Sepp Blatter Would Shut The Fuck Up
FIFA has released its Ballon d'Or shortlist, which means Sepp Blatter can take time away from his day job of punching up FIFA propaganda and gets to enjoy some of that media facetime he loves so much. Like you, Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti would prefer Sepp spared us his hot takes....
Cops: Man Says Karlos Williams Set Up Pot Deal That Led To Robbery
A man who tried to buy pot in Tallahassee and instead got robbed told police the deal was initiated by Florida State running back Karlos Williams, according to a Tallahassee police warrant. ...
Jimbo Fisher Is A Whimpering Penis
Florida State is ranked second overall in the College Football Playoff committee's current rankings, which are determined by a complex mix of computer algorithms and schedule analysis and praying to a magic goldfish for spiritual guidance. And if you're like me, you're hoping that Florida State los...
NCAA Punishes Todd Gurley, Still Thinks It's An Actual Court Of Law
Georgia star running back Todd Gurley was suspended by his school earlier this month after a bitter memorabilia dealer snitched on Gurley because he wasn't making enough money off the player's autographs. It was some extremely dumb shit. Now, the NCAA has swooped in and hit Gurley with its own set o...
Wilson Kipsang Could Be $500K Richer For A Shit Run In London '13
The World Marathon Majors, which consist of Tokyo, London, Boston, Berlin, Chicago, and New York, crown a champion every year based on overall placing during a two-year period. It is as unintelligible and confusing as it sounds. That being said, the WMM does dole out a half-million dollars to its tw...
Premier League Referee Suspended For Attending Ed Sheeran Concert
Some things are worth being suspended from your job for a week, and for English Premier League referee Mark Clattenburg, those things include attending an Ed Sheeran concert....
The Time JaVale McGee Had The Perfect Comeback For A Hater
I'll be honest, the NBA season kind of snuck up on me this year—I mean, would it be so wrong for basketball to just chill for a minute until the World Series is over?—but I officially got excited for the season while reading Nuggets point guard Ty Lawson's AMA on Reddit yesterday, because he reminde...
Could You Ace The SAT As An Adult?
Millions of terrified high school kids are getting their SAT scores this week; as you can imagine, Twitter is an unnerving swirl of emoticons and sadness as a result. So let's revisit the time a few years back when Deadspin's own Drew Magary retook the SAT as a wise, mature, emotionally stable 35-...
Warriors Owner Blames "Hoodish" Email On Autocorrect
Golden State co-owner Peter Guber has sort-of apologized for an team-wide email he sent yesterday in which he seemingly joked that he had to learn "hoodish" to speak to some Warriors players. And by "apologized," I mean "offered an excuse that makes no sense."...
The Warriors Might Actually Play Some Offense This Year. Thank God.
You'd think the mere presence of a shooter and playmaker like Steph Curry would guarantee you a top 10 offense. Last year, you would've thought wrong. Despite surrounding Curry with Klay Thompson, Swiss Army Knife Andre Iguodala, and a couple of skilled big men in David Lee and Andrew Bogut, Mark Ja...

Cops Looking At 'Noles RB In Armed Robbery During Pot Deal Gone Bad
Florida State running back Karlos Williams isn't just under investigation for alleged domestic battery. Cops are also looking into his alleged role in an armed robbery during a weed deal gone awry....
