Someone Spit In DeAngelo Hall's Face And It Wasn't Pac-Man Jones
I realize that this isn't breaking any new ground, but man, Terrell Owens is a sensitive guy. DeAngelo Hall, who engages in some friendly trash talk with Terrell Owens on the phone from time to time, did some of that same trash talking to Owens during the Cowboys/Falcons game last night. Owens spi...
Jim Mora Jr. Might Still Be The Coach, And Michael Vick Might Still Be The Quarterback
The NFL Network is the broadcast home of tonight's Cowboys vs. Falcons game, which means, of course, that many of you can't see it. Which makes this open thread even more important ... it might just be the best live coverage of the game that you can get....
Congratulations, Suzy Kolber Kissers
The voting has concluded at the 2006 Weblog Awards, and your winner is will be... Kissing Suzy Kolber, a site that's been mentioned here on Deadspin once or twice. The results haven't been made final or official, and they won't be until Monday. I guess they want some extra time to check for ballot...
Tank Johnson's Bodyguard Killed
Willie B. Posey was pronounced dead after being shot in the back during a fight outside a Chicago nightclub last night. Police wouldn't immediately confirm if it was the same Willie B. Posey who was arrested at Tank Johnson's house during a raid on Thursday, but Tank Johnson was seen leaving the hos...
Week In Deadspin: Rockin' The Local 138
• We like to listen to John Rocker talk. Jeff Pearlman? Not so much. • Miami-FIU. What could possibly go wrong? • When Joey Porter and Kellen Winslow feud, it's a catfight, MEOW! • Joel Zumaya has BLISTAS ON HIS FINGAS! • Welcome back leather! (And no Berman jokes here!) PETA is not happy. • It's li...
We Always Thought It'd Be Better To Be A Fake Somebody Than A Real Nobody
No matter what you do, no matter how awful ... no one ever thinks that they're a bad person....
Year In Review: June
We're reviewing each month of the past year leading up to New Years Day. We call it, imaginatively, "Year In Review." We're digging through our archives pretty well, but if you think we should definitely feature something for the last year that we might overlook, email us at [email protected] with s...
This Is Why He's Not Known As "Feelings" Johnson
Just because we've decided to wait just a little longer to get our arms around the Marcus Vick story, we take a brief hiatus with the tale of Bears defensive tackle Tank Johnson, previously one of our favorites because he has the name "Tank Johnson" entirely on the back of his jersey. We love that...
The Seahawks Are Falling Apart, Fast
So here's some hope for Seahawks fans. Think of yourselves as the St. Louis Cardinals....
The Seahawks Can Actually Win This Sullen Division
After a loss to the Buzzsaw last week that could generously be called "dispiriting," the Seattle Seahawks faithful are beginning to lose hope, openly referring to last season as a fluke. (We are more optimistic about their chances, but we know nothing.)...
Deadspin SHOTY Tournament: Barbaro Vs. Ben Roethlisberger
We're to our final quarterfinal matchup, with the semis taking place next week in a torrent of voting mania. (Or something.) We encourage you all to vote on the extremely tight Mariotti-Reynolds matchup. First, a reminder of the bracket....
Pearlman About As Pleased With Rocker Right Now As Rocker Is With Him
You might have missed our interview with John Rocker yesterday, but there's one person who didn't: Jeff Pearlman, the man who wrote the initial SI story on Rocker (and one-time Deadspin interview himself)....

PETA Is Worried About Shaq's Hands
A few people out there have wondered if the entirely reasonable and in no way dramatically and insanely overstepping in the name of a somewhat noble (occasionally) cause folks at PETA have an opinion on David Stern's decision to be with leather again. Well, they do....
Deadspin SHOTY Tournament: Jay Mariotti Vs. Harold Reynolds
We return to the SHOTY Tournament, with the final two quarterfinal matchups, today and Thursday. Of all the Elite Eight matchups, we think this might end up the closest. (The first two have been runaways, though you can still vote.) First, a reminder of the bracket....

We're Avoiding "With Leather" Jokes, But You May Feel Free
We'd like to thank NBC Sports for using the pictured headline on their site last night, in reference to David Stern acquiescing to the demands of his players to bring back the old basketball, so we didn't have to. It's nice when global corporations do our work for us....
A Night For Loud Bears Fans And Silent Rams Ones
We spent a year and a half of our lives in St. Louis and went to two NFL games. The first was in 1998, when Tony Banks was the quarterback. You can imagine what happened then. The second time was in 1999, when Kurt Warner threw five touchdown passes on our 24th birthday to smash the then-vexing San ...
