Who's The Next To Be Taken Down By Karma?
AJ Daulerio's Cultural Oddsmaker runs every Friday. Email him to let him know what you think....
Eff Her! Let's Get A Sandwich
What's the difference between a golf ball and a G-spot? We'll spend twenty minutes looking for a golf ball!...
Bill Belichick Is Always Watching
• Bitch, Isiah Thomas has a lot to say. • Shaq's bus sends some mixed messages. • What a huge day at RFK Stadium. • Jason Elam's kick was amazing. • The Smorgasbord returns! • Obey Belichick. • Gilbert Arenas knows how to deal with a lady. • Poor Greg Oden. • We tell you with whom to have sex. • Ski...
It Mated Us. We Hadn't Even Been Properly Introduced.
It wants to ... turn us into something else. That's not too terrible is it? Most people would give anything to be turned into something else....
Gilbert Arenas Wants To Help Your Love Life
During a moment of boredom last week, we caught an episode of that "Tell Me That You Love Me" show on HBO On Demand. We think it might be the most annoying television show we've ever seen. Basically, it's just a bunch of rich white people complaining about How We Just Don't Communicate The Way We Us...
We're Just Getting Started, If By "Started," You Mean "Halfway Done"
It was TheStarterWife who said things were totally different on this side of the wall, and all I can add to that is "ain't that the fucking truth." But we've learned a few things that we'll be sure to apply toward tomorrow's festivities. First of all, we realize that Nibbles really is a delicate fl...
The Gay Mafia Invade The Mothership
Oh, hello there. We, the fine gentleman from Kissing Suzy Kolber, have been charged with guiding you folks through this, the very first weekend of the NFL season. And we could not be more excited. Not only do we get to watch football, we also get to rush to the computer every five minutes to do HTM...
Thank Heavens For The NFL
• Another reason never to get excited about anything. • Mark Mangino will kill you. • Scott Van Pelt had had it up to here with your Internet garbage. • The NFL actually started its season. • Jeff Reed! • Shush, Barber. • Boy, oh boy, Michigan. • Rugby players make great dads. • Enjoy your Sunday! •...
He Should Have Armed Himself If He's Going To Decorate His Saloon With Our Friend
Look son, being a good shot, being quick with a pistol, that don't do no harm, but it don't mean much next to being cool-headed. A man who will keep his head and not get rattled under fire, like as not, he'll kill ya. It ain't so easy to shoot a man anyhow, especially if the son-of-a-bitch is shooti...
Our Server Is Not A Sentient Being
To keep the comments as fresh and outstanding as they've been up to this point, we've commissioned Commenting Guru Rob Iracane to write a bi-weekly Comment Ombudsman column. It runs every other week. This is that week....
At The End, There Is Just Ned
• Alas, only Ned. • Mark Cuban, dancin'. • ESPN hires its fans. Well, no, but it pretends its employees are fans. Clever, you! • We'll never understand the President Of Red Sox Nation thing. • Vick pleaded guilty. You might have heard about it. • Mike Tyson's poop. • Dickey Simpkins, one good dad. •...
You Have Got To Be The Worst Manager We've Ever Had
Even in this little town, we feel like what we do is very connected with the real center of people's lives. We're not saying we're always Mr. Effective, but we don't feel like our life is off to the side of what's important. You know? We don't feel our happiness and comfort are based on closing our ...
A Conversation With Dave Zirin
We've joked about being politically agnostic in these parts before, but that's not actually true. Like any breathing human, we have all kinds of political thoughts; we just don't think they belong on a sports site. Sports are one of the few realms that, if you try hard enough, can be separated from ...
Parsing The Deadspin HOF Voting
So, we only had one entrant in the Deadspin Hall of Fame this year. Some have called for us to automatically induct some popular picks, like we did last year with YWML and Carl Monday, but that seems against the spirit of matters. (We don't think anyone would argue they wouldn't have made it, had it...
Hall Of Fame Inductee: Ned
Presenting the lone member of the 2007 class of the Deadspin Hall Of Fame ......
Absolute Last Call For HOF Votes
As mentioned on Friday, Deadspin Hall Of Fame voting has been extended until 5 p.m. today; polls will officially close then, and we'll have the inductions tomorrow. There's still some awfully close battles. Here's where the numbers are standing, as of now....
New Jersey Nets Dancers Are INTENSE
If you think dancing for an NBA team is just about bleaching your hair blonde, suiting up in tight-fitting Spandex, and shaking what the good Lord — or a good surgeon — gave you, then 10 years ago you were actually correct. But times have changed, and in an era where Jason Kidd is no longer legally ...
Jeff Burton, Brought To You By The Color Orange
In a world where race cars are stamped with as many corporate sponsors that will fit on the sheet metal, it's really weird to see a car with no logo on the hood or sides. Seriously, it looks like Jeff Burton (#31) is driving an oversized Hot Wheels car in this Getty photo. There's a (logical?) reas...
Ookie, Ned, 2/1/07 And A Little Horse That Couldn't
• There was some Hall of Fame voting. • Sally Jenkins is awesome. • Thirty freaking runs. • We will never, ever wear a Texas shirt. • Hirshey was there for that madness in the Meadowlands. • His newspaper is not being nice to Stephen A. Smith. • Comcast ... CLEVER! • Get yourself a fuck lion, stat. ...
