Manning at Marmalard: Who You Got?
The Colts and the Chargers face off tonight at Qualcomm Stadium in a battle between two goofy looking quarterbacks. You can be sure that Peyton is trying to forget his crappy performances to start the season and the fact that the Chargers knocked the Colts out of last year's playoffs. Rivers is curr...
BCS Bid On The Line In Oklahoma
It's time for the big game, folks! No. 2 Texas Tech and No. 5 Oklahoma will battle it out for the division title and a spot in the BCS. The Red Raiders are trying to go undefeated for the first time after a week off, but the Sooners are averaging just over 51 points per game. Thanks to an earlier lo...
This Photograph Just Makes Me Want to Shampoo Something
Here's Joe Namath in his glory days, with Farrah Fawcett on the arm, shag carpet on the chest, and a glint in his eye that tells the world, "You're mine, baby." Who else can pull of that type of confidence with just a simple glance? George Clooney? Obama? Baby Mangino? Not many. With Leather picked ...
Browns' GM Phil Savage Responds To Email Hecklers Swiftly, But Not Very Politely (UPDATE)
As a person who gets tons of nasty email, I know it's tough to always show restraint and resist the urge to stick up for yourself. This practice is frowned upon, and not healthy, because, well, those emails could potentially come back to bite you in the ass. Plus, as a "professional" you're supposed...
Time For 2008 SHOTY Nominations
The time has come, ladies and gentlefolk. (We're actually starting a little bit late.) The 2008 Sportshuman Of The Year awards are about to grace you with their presence, and, as always, we need your nominations over here. This is the third annual SHOTY tournament. The first winner died, and the se...
Charissa Thompson Wisely Returns to Hair Color Prefered by Boner-Popping NFL Viewership
It was only a few short weeks ago that stunning-looking FOX NFL sideline reporter Charissa Thompson de-blonded herself for a more Lisa Loebian-type camera presence. It's not that she looked horrible with the cat glasses and the brunette locks, but it was an extreme transformation that seemed to have...
Choose Your Own Adventure
You are standing at the crossroads of your life. There are two closed doors in front of you. Behind one of them is an expansive gallery featuring 92 photos of the lovely dimple-faced Carrie Milibank in all of her bikini-laden glory. But behind the other door lurks an evil Auburn fan, donning a creep...
There Will, In All Likelihood, Be Blood
As you may have heard, tonight there's this little thing on the pay-per-views called UFC 91, an event that will feature many large-muscled men beating the snot out of other large-muscled men while lesser-muscled men cheer them on. The event begins at 9:30pm EST and will culminate in Brock Lesnar an...
Just Because I Want One More Opportunity to Run This Photo....
There were plenty of concerned emails from readers after the Rick's Cabaret fiasco, but none were as well-intentioned and thorough as the one from Bomani Jones, friend of Deadspin and self-proclaimed strip club expert: I read about Daulerio and Leitch's trip to Rick's. Good stuff, great photos, etc....
Buck Burnette Learns Another Valuable Lesson in Karmic Justice
Last week, University of Texas back-up center Buck Burnette learned a very valuable lesson about both his Facebook and racist status, after he posted the disturbing hillbilly-like message "all the hunters gather up, we have a #$%&er in the whitehouse" on his personal page and was subsequently kicked...
It's Unfortunate That This Woman's Thigh Is Hiding My New Suit
Thank you very much to all the would-be photographers who volunteered their last minute services to photograph us on our "field trip". Quick-typing reader Antonio G. Di Benedetto was the winning first responder and made the trip from Montclair State University to photograph last night's dork-fueled...
Time To Party With The 49ers And Cardinals
Only a couple of hours or so until Leitch's Arizona Buzzsaw square off against my San Francisco Forty-Niners, and the big question remains: Who will be the first tonight to remove his pants inappropriately, Matt Leinart or Mike Singletary? Judging from the photo, Matt gets the presumptive nod, espec...
SNF: Can Philly Get Over The Hump In The NFC East?
People continually point to the NFC East as pro football's best division, and they should. Theso-called "Black and Blue" division features four well-run organizations with rabid fanbases and a clear priority set on not only winning on the field, but running their teams better than anyone else in th...
Obama Love Can Have No Boundaries (Like Decorum)
This is Vancouver's General Motors Place, home of the Vancouver Canucks. During Tuesday's Canucks-Predators game, the largest cheer came for Barack Obama's ascendancy in American politics. Our time in Canada involved mostly two questions, ad nauseum: "Are you an American?" and "Isn't it great about ...
Welcome the New Brown Prince of Football....
In just a couple of hours Brady Quinn will ditch the clipboard and gallantly sprint to the front of the huddle to rescue the Cleveland Browns from their 3-5 misery. Americans who have the NFL Network as part of their premium cable packages will scrutinize his poise, his arm strength, and some will ...
Michael Irvin Shares His Surprising Post-Election Thoughts With the World
ESPN's Mike and Mike in the morning had ex-Cowboys receiver Michael Irvin call in and share his thoughts about last night's election of Barack Obama. He spoke candidly and passionately about what it meant to him, without much of a filter and what seemed little preparation. Based on some of Irvin's p...
And in Just a Few Hours We'll Find Out If There Is An College Football Playoff In Our Future....
Everybody knows what today is. The importance of it, what's at stake, all that. There's no way to avoid it. Whoever walks away with the most colored areas from the CNN map tonight, it'll be a good thing. Tomorrow we'll at least be able to look forward to something different in 2009. Those who did vo...
Brett Myers and The Philadelphia Police Department Welcome you To Watch Monday Night Football With Them
So here's a fun photo taken in the early morning hours after the decisive game 5, when Phillies pitcher Brett Myers was stopped by Philly police officers after he attempted to cross over a blocked off portion of Broad Street. At first Myers was told he couldn't pass, but once several officers recogn...
Without This Woman's Help, Vince Wilfork Probably Wouldn't Be Playing Tonight
Bianca Wilfork isn't your typical NFL wife. She's more of a business manager for Vince Wilfork, handling virtually everything outside of football for Vince. And above all else, she watches his games closely. Very closely. Bianca put her DVR skills to good use this week, and probably saved her hubby...
Pants-Gate: Mike Singletary WILL Find Out Who Snitched
An investigation is underway in San Fransisco, and no man, woman, or child is safe from its reaches. No sir; not for as long as Mike Singletary is around. The Niners' new coach is determined to find out who told the press about his rather hilarious motivational tactics, which have brought shame and...
