Teach A Man To Fish... And He Will Bore Others On ESPN All Day Long
The "Super Bowl of Fishing" has put another day in the books, cutting the field down to 25 for tomorow's finale. For those of you who joined the Deadspin Bass Fishing Fantasy League, know that Luke Clausen is still in the lead with 44 total pounds of fishies. Terry Scroggins had the biggest haul o...
Week In Deadspin: What We Missed While Floating Around
It might seem strange for us to try to recap a week in which we watched absolute no sports whatsoever, but we're gonna give it a try anyway....
Get Them To Sign On The Line That Is Dotted
These are the new sponsors. These are the Glengarry sponsors. To you, these are gold; you do not get these. Because to give them to you would be throwing them away....
So, Did We Miss Anything?
After eight days floating around a tiny boat in the Caribbean sun, we are proud to say that we are back and, as they say, ready to rock. Our trip was most pleasant, thank you, and we even spent half an hour at the Nevis Sports Museum (apparently they play much cricket there)....
Good Morning, Class...
It's MJD, back again as your substitute teacher. And I promise, no more pictures of speedskating "moose knuckles," (unless Chad Hedrick and Shani Davis begin insulting the size of each others respective "moose knuckles"), and no Arena Football (unless Bon Jovi takes over as starting QB of the Soul...
Announcements: Greetings, Spinheads
As you may know, your beloved, floppy-haired Midwesterner Will Leitch is gone today, gallavanting across the not-so-frozen tundra to "another goddamn wedding." And I, A.J. Daulerio, have the unenviable task of writing America's most popular sports blog on Will's first full day away from his baby. He...
Bring Us Your Finest Beers And Cheeses
For the first time since we started this site four-and-a-half months ago ... we are taking a day off. Tomorrow, to be specific, because we'll be at a wedding in beautiful Green Bay, Wisc. (We're gonna see if we can catch Mike McCarthy and Brett Favre making out again.) It's going to be cold; we m...
Advertising Whoredom, Commence!
We have advertisers on this site — yeah, we're as surprised as you — so we encourage you to buy their products, along with cheese and assorted meats. If you want to advertise, this handy link will tell you how....
Up Your Butt, Jobu
Not to get all Bill Simmons on you here — if just because we consider you less readers than active participants — but, hey, this is Deadspin Nation. Robert Taylor sends us these pictures of him and his friends from last Halloween, all dressed up as the guys from Major League....
Excuse Our Dust
We're having some email server issues over here, so if you've been sending your tips to [email protected] and you haven't heard back from us, it's very possible that it didn't get here. We're sorry; we're working on it....
Week In Deadspin: We Never Once Said "Vin-SANITY." So You Know.
• Hey, there was a moderately enjoyable college football game this week. • Clinton Portis is the man, and, in case you were wondering, his mom rules too. • Support your local athletes, always, particularly if you're Stuart Scott. • Ichiro could be a killer, you know. • So you know, this guy is not...
Man Hugs For Sponsors
Our advertisers are our friends, and we give them big manly two-pats-on-back hugs, even if we can't afford any of their products and they occasionally make our site load slowly on Explorer. Here's this week's rundown of sponsors, and here's how you can become one....
Week In Deadspin: Closing Out '05
• Anna Benson will gun your ass down. • Jeff Reardon's medicine gets him in trouble, and not just with the international closer crime syndicates. • The Buzzsaw That Is The Arizona Cardinals says goodbye to Sun Devil Stadium and its treasure trove of memories. • Darren Prince gave us a very nice ho...
Must Acknowledge Advertisers ... Must Acknowledge Advertisers ...
We thank our advertisers for their "support" and hope they don't mind that we're too poor to buy their products. If you want to be a part of this little parade of paddy-cake, go here, we're told....
Some End Of Year Comment Invites Available
We're about to shut it down for 2005 — we're doing a half day tomorrow and will be off until January 3 — so we wanted to encourage anyone without a comment invitation to state your case to [email protected] to join the party in 2006....
Advertiser Shout Outs: Our Cherry Is Popped
For some reason, our site has sponsors now. Yeah, we're as surprised as you. We thank our advertisers for their "support" and hope they don't mind that our first advertiser shout-out post is somewhat sheepish and apologetic. We'll do better next time, promise. (Though we just found out — the second ...
Happy Holidays From Deadspin (And Clinton Portis)
We here at Deadspin would like to take this opportunity to wish you and yours a most pleasant holiday season. We'll be back Tuesday morning, but until then, Clinton Portis and all sides of his fragmented personality would like to say hello. So, hello. Tell your family we said hey....
Week In Deadspin: Idiot, Idiot Everywhere
It's half-day Friday before the holidays, so we're wrapping up for the day. Honestly, you should leave too; traffic's gonna suck....
Still Selling T-Shirts. We'll Make This Quick.
We're just about done with these, promise....
Week In Deadspin: A Marquee QB Story
• Matt Leinart sent a lot of people to our site, and then tried to make it clear nothing happened at all. For the record, as part of our job description, we believe no one. • We gave Skip Bayless the royal treatment, and no matter how mean we might have been, we still felt too nice. • Some things ...
