Vandy Player Squares To Bunt, Takes Fastball To The Neck
Vanderbilt rightfielder Rhett Wiseman was a third-round pick in this year’s MLB draft, but after catching a fastball to the neck from TCU’s Tyler Alexander in the first inning of tonight’s College World Series game, we can’t imagine he was thinking much about his upcoming payday with the Nationals....
Alex Rodriguez Hits Home Run For 3,000th Career Hit
Alex Rodriguez became the first player since Derek Jeter to join baseball’s 3,000-hit club, and just like Jeter in 2011, he did it with a home run....
This Is The Best Imported Beer
This morning, while combing through the Drunkspin archives to see how many times I’ve said “mouthfeel” so as to determine how many pushups I owe the Non-Creepy Food and Drink Bloggers Guild, I realized that we’ve covered perilously few foreign beers here. And we’ve said shitty things about most of t...
Marshawn Lynch Embraces Draymond Green's Mom For Talking "Real Shit"
Oakland native and Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch is on the premises for today’s Warriors NBA title celebration, and somehow ended up live on CSN with Dramond Green’s mother. Lynch was so moved by Ms. Babers-Green that he risked his own mother’s disapproval and hugged the Warriors forw...
Draymond Green Burns Cavaliers, Is Enjoying Himself At Warriors Rally
“Cavaliers? Nope. We won? Yupp. They suck? Yupp. We here? Yupp. They not? Nooope.” Draymond Green is in an especially, uh, blithe mood at today’s Golden State Warriors victory rally. Then he did this:...
What The Hell Is Phil Jackson Even Talking About?
Knicks president Phil Jackson sat down for a Q&A with The New York Times this week, and things got a little weird. Aside from congratulating himself on doing a generally fine job with the Knicks and saying nothing that should convince anyone that his ideas about basketball have gotten less crappy, h...
Judge Finds Saints Owner Tom Benson To Be Mentally Competent
The estranged heirs of New Orleans Saints owner Tom Benson are going to have a much harder time working their way back into the 87-year-old’s will, as a judge has just ruled that Benson is competent enough to continue managing his own affairs....
Riley Curry Is Maybe An Emoji
So, here’s a picture of the absurdly photogenic Curry clan posing with the Larry O’Brien Trophy yesterday. Riley, possibly the best sports baby working, is still in title-winning form....
How To Sext Without Being A Creep
Ask An Adequate Woman is a space where folks can ask the questions they can’t—or maybe just won’t!—pose to their friends about relationships, fashion, family dramas, dating, existential crises, weird sex stuff, and everything else. The Women of Deadspin (and some of our clever friends) are here to h...

<i>Dope </i>Is A Buoyant '90s Throwback That Does Most Of The Right Things
1. Dope is a movie about ’90s hip-hop and black culture, but it feels like a throwback in other ways, too. That decade, somewhat amazingly, was the last time movies like this existed on a semi-regular basis: ambitious, original, almost-raw movies by black people about black life, aimed at a national...
RIP To Matthew Dellavedova And His Terrible, Beautiful Lob Passes
For a minute there, it looked like Matthew Dellavedova, little try-hard that he is, was going to become a Finals hero for the Cleveland Cavaliers. That didn’t really work out, but that’s not to say that Delly didn’t provide us with a great deal of entertainment, because oh man did this guy do some h...
IPA Is Still The King Of Beers
In these fractious times, when we can’t even agree on what constitutes a sandwich (hot dogs are not sandwiches, because if you ate three sandwiches in one sitting, all existing and several future generations of your family would disown you on the spot, you gross monster) or who the MVP of the NBA Fi...
An Illicit Tour Of The New Vikings Stadium
The Vikings’ new billion-dollar stadium is little more than a year from opening, and feels much further away. Bulldozers work upon the patch of broken earth that will eventually become a football field. Its upper deck levels are nothing but giant, bare, staircase-like concrete slabs and along every ...
The Golden State Warriors Declare Their Love For The CoCo One Last Time
Earlier this season, the Golden State Warriors started one of the best post-victory rituals in the NBA, one that consisted of the team singing and dancing along to O.T. Genasis’s “CoCo” on the team plane. Unfortunately, because “CoCo” is about drugs, they got in a bit of trouble and had to resort to...
Leandro Barbosa Is A Happy, Drunk Champion
From Bay Area Sports Guy comes this fun clip of Warriors backup guard Leandro Barbosa holding court in the postgame locker room. Is he drunk and happy? Hell yeah he’s drunk and happy....
Draymond Green Found His Cockiness And Saved The Warriors
Draymond Green certainly didn’t deserve to win the Finals MVP award (neither did Andre Iguodala, for that matter), but it’s hard to imagine the Warriors putting this series away without his resurgence, which began in Game 4 and ended with last night’s championship-clinching triple-double....
How To Survive Your Favorite Team's Dumb, Embarrassing Scandal
St. Louis Cardinals fans have had to deal with everyone heaping shit on their team for awhile now, and at times, they’ve reacted poorly. With yesterday’s revelation of the FBI investigation into team officials hacking the Astros for information, the Best Fans in Baseball should prepare for a new tru...
The Golden State Warriors Are Your 2015 NBA Champions
This is the most sportswritery thing I’ll ever write, but all season long the Golden State Warriors won as a team. Sure, Stephen Curry was the MVP of the league, but he was far from a one man band. Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, and Andrew Bogut all won league-wide awards. After two stagnant season,...
