Brady Quinn Stands Before You Shorn
Because we're still a little taken aback by Michael Vick's press conference today — we imagine him using every prison phone call to dial Roger Goodell's office — we bring you lighter news to close the day. Brady Quinn has shaved his head....
Tom Brady has eight more bastard children to go if he wants to catch up to Travis Henry. The Denver Broncos running back "fathered" nine children scattered about the southern United States, using nine different mommies. Somehow that $25 million contract wasn't enough to write off his unpaid child su...
Deadspin HOF Nominee: Brady Quinn
The art of photography is a delicate, complicated one. You must possess an eye for composition and complexity, yes, but you also must hope your subject — whatever he, she or it is — can be capturing in a moment that reveals something, not just about his / she / its nature, but also humanity as a who...
NFL Season Preview: Denver Broncos
Believe it or not, folks, the NFL season is much closer than you can possibly imagine. So close, in fact, that, if we're going to fit in every NFL team preview by the start of the season, we have to go this early. So there you have it....

Browns Fans Are A Joyous Sort
Apropos of nothing — we haven't said that in a while — here's a Photoshop creation to honor those happy Cleveland Browns fans. Somehow, Brady Quinn is not in this picture, dancing or rocking out to Warrant....
Vince Young Does Not Fear Hard Surfaces
But my favorite part was the post-practice quote by Nickey: "Someone comes at me, I'm not going to back down. I don't care if it's Vince, President Bush. That's just instincts that come out."...
You Still Got That Little BB In Your Eye, Kornacki?
You'd think having to cover the Kansas City Royals was a pain in the ass as it is when ... BAM! A pellet-gun bullet straight to the face! Jesus, Emil! Watch where you point that thing!...
Another Perfect Moment Spoiled By Assheads
Like many of you, our favorite moment from last year's college football season was the thrilling Fiesta Bowl, in which Boise State beat Oklahoma with the Statue of Liberty play and running back Ian Johnson proposed to his cheerleader girlfriend after scoring the winning points. It was one of those s...
To Watch Tonight ...
What to watch while you wait for Jemaine, Bret and Murray ... • Awards: ESPYS. $10 says Tomlinson wins four trophies. [ESPN] • Cycling: Tour de France, Stage 8. Amazing asphalt on this leg. [Versus] • Movie: Rocky V. Oh, it happened it, Bill. It. Happened. [ESPN Classic]...
We Were All So Lame In The Early 90s
We don't mean to destroy the mystery surrounding the ESPYs — which taped last night and will be shown Sunday — but, well, co-host LeBron James did a song called "My LeBrongative." We're sure the rest of the evening's hilarity followed that pattern....
Platt Vs. Turturro, For All The Ham
If you haven't gotten brought up to speed on The Bronx Is Burning just yet, fret not: It's pretty easy to catch up. Oliver Platt yells, John Turturro yells, Sam shoots people, Reggie hits homers. (The Dugout recap sums it up rather well.)...
Brady Quinn's Unskinny Bop
Thanks, Mondesi's House, for reminding us once again that there is absolutely nothing like a Brady Quinn photo. That's Bret Michaels. Of course it is....
Shockingly, The ESPN Movie Isn't Getting Great Reviews
We will confess, we have been, in spite of ourselves, kind of looking forward to the premiere of The Bronx Is Burning tonight. We know, ESPN's movies have been rather awful, and we are dealing with the guy who directed Benny And Joon....
What Will Be Cut From This Year's ESPY Awards?
AJ Daulerio's Cultural Oddsmaker runs every Friday. Email him to let him know what you think....
The Exact Human Opposite Of Jim Nantz
Ron Jaworski? Please. This is your new MNF foil for Kornheiser....
Mike And Mike Are Everywhere You Look
All told, we think we gave Mike and Mike too hard of a time on the whole spelling bee thing. They weren't so bad; maybe they toned down the schtick for ABC. Anyway, as part of ESPN's plan to have Mike Greenberg (the gay one) and Mike Golic (the fat one) broadcasting every event that Berman and Tiric...
Whew! Now The Cavaliers Have A Chance!
We would like to formally congratulate LeBron James who, just in time for Game 4, became a father for the second time at 12:15 this morning. The kid's name is "Bryce Maximus James," which is exactly what our parents once considered naming us....
