Hugh II: The Nedessey Continues... Part 2
The early games are beginning to wrap up and to everyone's surprise things have gotten quite a bit more interesting out there. Miami has launched an admirable comeback on their former coach and fierce rivals from Chapel Hill and Michigan State is in a shootout with Northwestern, the baddest motherfu...
We're all set for another illuminating Saturday of the Hugh Johnson project. Erin Andrews is in Champaign and a guy named Juice is playing quarterback; the romance in the air is palpable. Send your thoughts, insights, comments, jokes, anecdotes to our screen name ncaa deadspin. Oh and don't forget t...
Raise Your Hands If You're the Boom King
One night, two games, and two walk off hits. Frankly I think we deserved this, these playoff games are longer than Drew's Jambaroo. Manny Ramirez answered my prayers (not for a Red Sox win, just for the sweet release of sleep) and ended the long night with a thrilling walk-off homer to break the 3-3...

TBS Knows Baseball, But About That Frank Fellow
All told, we've been pretty impressed with TBS's playoffs coverage so far. Cal Ripken is shockingly candid, that lead-from-first graphic is kind of neat and they're generally restrained about matters. (Other than Dick Stockton's hair, that is.)...

In Which Bonds And His Ex-Mistress Are Both Fully Exposed
As you may have heard by now, it seems that the November issue of Playboy has just about something for everyone. Six-page nude pictorial on ex-Barry Bonds mistress Kimberly Bell? Check. Bell's revelations about Bonds' steroid use, including eyewitness testimony concerning his shrunken testicles? Che...

The Red Sox Are Feeling Awfully Good About Themselves
SI's Tom Verducci has an excellent rundown of just how dominant Josh Beckett was yesterday, and he was probably the biggest story yesterday: He made the Sox look like they were going to dominate the Angels like they did three years ago. That team has some swagger now. And that's all Red Sox fans ne...

ALDS Game 1 Live Blog: Red Sox Vs. Angels
We close out the day with our second live blog, though we can't imagine there are any Red Sox fans who didn't start working at 5:30 a.m. today to make sure they got out of the office in time for this game. Surely, there are West Coasters stuck. So, to close us out, we pass the mic to Sarah Schorno, ...
TNT Is Thinking Ahead
In about two-and-a-half hours, the 2007 Major League Baseball postseason will begin. As you know, all games will be on TBS, which is why we have strange start times like 3 p.m. ET and 6:30 p.m. ET. We thought this would be a problem. But TBS is off to a good start....
Tom Brady Loves To Fly And It Shows
Tom Brady's offensive line is fierce in their devotion to him, and that includes, apparently, censoring the in-flight movies on flights to away games. No sooner had the movie begun on the Patriots' flight to Cincinnati last week than a moment during the opening credits proved a bit, um, awkward for ...

Playoff Pants Party: Red Sox Vs. Angels
The Red Sox didn't make the playoffs last year. That seems weird. We had been wondering why last year's playoffs seemed so bereft of histrionic drama!...

If one of the Padres can find out where Matt Holliday lives, he can still drive over there with a ball and tag him. Then it's welcome to the 14th inning, folks!
