It's A Turd! It's Plain! <em>Man Of Steel</em>, Reviewed.
1. On the surface, it seems obvious why you'd attempt to reboot the Superman franchise using the Christopher Nolan-Batman model. Nolan's Dark Knight films are terrific, brooding and powerful, and, oh by the way, they grossed a combined $2.5 billion worldwide. But their trying to make a tortured-supe...

Size Matters, But So Does Space: How Miami Went Small And Won Game 4
You knew the Heat's small ball lineups were making the Spurs uncomfortable when, not even six minutes into Game 4 of the NBA finals, Gregg Popovich was playing a lineup that only saw the court for a total of 12 minutes in the regular season, most recently in a desperate comeback attempt against the ...

Chris Stewart Holds On After Collision At Plate, Extends Extra Innings
With one out in the bottom of the 15th of a 2-2 game between the Yankees and Athletics, Coco Crisp was up and Brandon Moss represented the winning run on second base.

The Four Most Punchable Faces In Human History
Before we get to the Funbag, some notes of vital interest. If you're in New York tomorrow night, I'll be doing Scott Rogowsky's Running Late show over in Brooklyn. It's like a live talk show-type thing. You can buy tickets here. You get a free beer (not kidding) if you mention Deadspin at the door, ...


Not Content Merely To Win, The Bruins Are Traumatizing Franchises
The Boston Bruins will welcome the winner of the Chicago-L.A. series to the Stanley Cup Final because of their utter dismantling of the Pittsburgh Penguins. In that series, the Bruins were able to stonewall a Pittsburgh team that won 75 percent of its regular season games and led the league in scori...

The Weed That Came To Chris Perez's House Was Addressed To His Dog
The standard athlete-busted-for-misdemeanor-weed-possession story is one that's rarely fun to study. The drug in question is less harmful than lots of legal substances, and the details hardly shift (cop pulls someone over, cop smells something, etc.) in each case. But every so often there's a magic...


Indians Closer Chris Perez Is The Subject Of A Dumb Panic Over Weed

Summer Has Officially Arrived: Here's Chris Berman Sweating Like A Pig
Our friends at Busted Coverage got their dirty mitts on this shot of Boomer bumblin', stumblin', and sweatin' through his shirt at last week's Boston Strong concert. We know it had to be hotter than a pizza oven that night inside TD Garden, but it still bears repeating: Nobody brings the swamp ass l...

Birdman's Suspended Tonight Against The Pacers, And That Is Bullshit
After Thursday's dustup between Heat forward Chris "Birdman" Andersen and the elder Hansbrough formerly known as Psycho T, the league allowed Birdman to finish out the rest of the game.

Donald Sterling May Yet Fuck Up This Clippers Team
These should be happy times for the Los Angeles Clippers. After making two straight playoff appearances and supplanting the Lakers as L.A.'s best team, the Clips are poised to find continued success in the coming years. Blake Griffin, DeAndre Jordan, and Eric Bledsoe make up a promising young core, ...

I Can't Stop Looking At These Photos Of Birdman And Tyler Hansbrough Ready To Throw Down
The tall white guy fight we all wanted to see nearly happened last night. Chris "Birdman" Andersen and Tyler Hansbrough exchanged shoves, words, and death stares—or at least the closest to "menacing" that Hansbrough's mug can muster....

Last series: this. And now Chris Bosh. When are we going to learn?...
