The Shocking Jose Offerman Video
As everyone struggles to come to terms with Jose Offerman's blatant attack with a baseball bat on Tuesday, we note that apparently no video of the incident exists. Which is probably for the best. In fact, this was the best we could find. Major League-ready swing, that guy....

If Only The Large Breasted Hot Women Would Leave Athletes Alone!
The handsome rapscallion you see right there is Will Demps, a slightly mediocre free safety for the New York Giants who's pretty much destined to be on a reality show in six years. He's a smoldering fellow, and you know what that means: He just can't keep the groupies off him....

NFL Season Preview: Detroit Lions
Believe it or not, folks, the NFL season is much closer than you can possibly imagine. So close, in fact, that, if we're going to fit in every NFL team preview by the start of the season, we have to go this early. So there you have it....

He Got His Cover, So Now He's Gone

There's Madness Behind The Mask
To help celebrate Bobby Cox's record 132nd career ejection (he was tossed again on Wednesday), Sons of Sam Malone compiled the Top 5 Manager Ejections of recent years. It is a fine list, a noble list, and makes me want to crawl on all fours and pretend to lob a grenade. 'But hey,' you may be saying ...

You Can't Tell, But Howie Long Is Erect
If we know our average Deadspin reader, you were obviously watching "Fox & Friends" on the Fox News Channel this morning. But just in case ... Richard Simmons was hanging out with the FOX NFL Sunday crew. Finally, someone who makes Jimmy Johnson look well dressed, and Terry Bradshaw look less gay. ...

Locate Your Local Viking
From Chiefs Coalition comes this photo from ... well, we're not sure where it's from. But we're having a really difficult time figuring out where that Vikings' hands and feet go....

It's Deadspin HOF Nominations Time
Heavens, it seems like it's been almost 360 days since we introduced the Deadspin Hall of Fame, though it's only been 51 weeks. Holy bejeezus: Our little site is turning two years old in a couple of weeks. Well, guess what, folks: It's time to take nominations for the 2007 class....

Ron Mexico, Head For The Clink
We have become so jaded by the American legal system that it's difficult to imagine a celebrity the likes of Michael Vick actually facing any real jail time. We imagined probation picking up dog doo with his teeth, and a hefty fine. But if the feds were out to get Ron Mexico, it's starting to look l...

The Irish Sing And Sway
We're not sure why we find this video of the Notre Dame football team singing the Irish theme song to their fans so hypnotic, but we too....

Jose Offerman's Comeback Attempt Hits A Minor Snag
As you surely knew, everyone's favorite smoldering volcano of goodness, ex-major league All-Star Jose Offerman, is playing for the Long Island Ducks of the Independent Atlantic League this season.

Wait ... A Tolerable Monday Night Football Broadcast?
So we were watching ESPN's "Monday Night Football" last night, and we noticed this odd feeling, a peculiar sensation that we had, up to that point, never experienced. We couldn't figure it out; were we developing some sort of cold? And then we realized: We were watching "Monday Night Football" ... a...

It's Officially Madden Day
In case you were wondering why no one in your office is, you know, around today, it's because Madden 08 was released last night. Because we are afraid to leave our apartment, we order from Amazon, so we won't see the games for a couple more days. But if you aren't waiting that long, it's a big deay...

Revisiting The Seventh Floor Crew
Every once in a while, we like to check in on our old friends of the Seventh Floor Crew. We could listen to the ole Miami Hurricanes hip-hopping all day long, and it's always nice to see what they're up to these days....
