Mike Matheny And The Cardinals Are Still Being A Bunch Of Grumpy Sourpusses About Jason Heyward
Jason Heyward, a strong good baseball man who left the aging team he was with for less than a year for a new team in a better city with other strong baseball men, is not popular around St. Louis. Earlier this month, a bunch of angry mouthbreathers said mean shit about him online (which happens all t...
What Does This Headline Mean?
Sam Farmer wrote a column which started with the recent spate of injuries to playoff-bound NFL quarterbacks for Tuesday’s edition of the Los Angeles Times. The copy’s fine, but the headline has puzzled me and others on the Deadspin staff for a couple of days now....
Jason Kidd Has A Little Talk With The Bucks About Appropriate Strip Club Attendance

Theo Epstein Is Getting Everything He Wants

Taj Gibson Was Totally Chill About Blake Griffin Almost Taking His Head Off
In the third quarter of last night’s 83-80 loss to the Bulls, Blake Griffin completely misjudged Taj Gibson’s pump fake and inner arm-chopped him across the face.

Coe's Dilemma: Does This Bribery And Corruption Make Me Look Complicit?
Back in July, when in Sebastian Coe’s telling he was as pure and innocent as a spring lamb in the #2 spot at the International Association of Athletics Federations, he was in fact mulling over whether “we” in the West (meaning the US and Europe, maybe Canada, but definitely not Mexico) were being to...

CBS Reporter Jamie Erdahl Reports Steve Smith Injury News She Got From A Fake Twitter Account
There’s nothing more ridiculous than fake Twitter accounts, but they persist because so many stupid people fall for them. One such person is CBS sideline reporter Jamie Erdahl, who quoted a fake Ian Rapoport report that Steve Smith’s injury was a torn Achilles tendon. The network had to quickly retr...
