Golazo: Rodrigo
Brazil’s Rodrigo hammered home this lovely golazo in the first period of his side’s match against Italy at the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup. Think soccer is OK, but wish it had more scoring and impossible athleticism? Try fútbol playa. ...
White Sox Use Unconventional Means To Knock Orioles Starter Out Of Game
The first-place Chicago White Sox knocked Baltimore Orioles starter Wade Miley out of the game tonight, using the unusual method of repeatedly attacking him with sharply-hit balls. The GIF above shows Avisaíl García, currently leading the league in batting average, getting Miley right in the leg in ...
We're Never Getting Another <i>Game Of Thrones</i> Book, But HBO Will Be Making <i>Thrones</i> Spinoffs Forever<em></em>
Normally around this time in May, Game of Thrones, HBO’s hit show about sailing and cousin-fucking, is approaching the halfway point of its season. The course of the season’s plot has been charted, glowery dudes have glowered across dimly lit tables at each other, and at least one character has been...

Former Oregon Tight End Colt Lyerla On The Run After Escaping From Corrections Center [Update]
Colt Lyerla played tight end for the Oregon Ducks from 2011 to 2013, and had a cup of coffee with the Green Bay Packers before knee injuries ended his brief NFL career. Lyerla has run into trouble with the law several times since his college career ended, as he was convicted of cocaine possession in...
Look At These Beautiful Bulldogs
It has been brought to the attention of Deadspin’s Thursday night editorial staff that the blog somehow failed to cover the 38th Annual Drake Relays Beautiful Bulldog Contest, which took place last week in Des Moines. We apologize for the grave oversight and invite you to take a belated look at thes...
Phillies Escape 12th-Inning Bases-Loaded Jam With Improbable 6-9-3 Double Play
The surprisingly competent Philadelphia Phillies took this afternoon’s rumble with the defending champs to the 13th inning thanks to a rather weird double play. While this one comes off as a garden variety double play, the middleman here is Ty Kelly, a Phillies right fielder who was hanging out in t...
Klay Thompson's Autopilot System Failed In The Middle Of An Interview
Sometimes you’re just digging around in your bag of platitudes, and you come up empty-handed....
Report: Jay Cutler's New Job May Involve Apathetically Watching Football Games
Jay Cutler’s bare ass is still a free agent, but maybe not for long. The ex-Bears quarterback is reportedly interested in working as a broadcaster....
White Sox Slugger Avisaíl García Breaks Bat
One of the big surprises of the young baseball season has been Chicago White Sox outfielder Avisaíl García—sold to fans of the South Siders upon his acquisition as the second coming of Magglio Ordóñez, and in reality more like a butt—hitting like a god. He came into tonight leading the league in bat...
Marcell Ozuna Sent This Pitch To Goddamn Neptune
Marcell Ozuna is NOT a fan of the Rays’ 2011 AL Wild Card banner and he will do anything he can to see it die....
Enjoy The Sweet Excess Of David West's Dimes
Of the Warriors’ 40 made field goals last night, 32 came off assists. While this could instead be a blog about overly generous assist credits—and yes, after rewatching many of them, I’m tempted to get petty—even a hater must concede that Golden State dropped many, many sweet dimes while thumping the...
Steph Curry Made Rudy Gobert Look Like A Bewildered Child
You can’t double team Steph Curry on the perimeter. If you go under the screen against him, you are allowing maybe the greatest shooter of all time an open look. You can switch a big guy onto him, but that means Steph gets to go at a larger, slower defender. Maybe it’s not that bad if that big guy i...
Report: Cubs' World Series Trophy Damaged At Theo Epstein's Charity Concert In Boston
Theo Epstein and his brother Paul run the charity Foundation To Be Named Later, and every year, they host a benefit concert called Hot Stove Cool Music. Since Epstein’s Cubs came to Boston last week to play the Red Sox, the brothers hosted a show headlined by Eddie Vedder, and Theo brought both the ...
Cristiano Ronaldo Gutted Atlético Madrid
Cristiano Ronaldo has a penchant for doing only two or three things in any given game, but those two or three things usually end up being the most important things. That’s exactly what happened today, when Ronaldo scored a hat trick today against Atlético Madrid. His second was the prettiest, when ...
May The Soccer Gods Bless Atlético Madrid, Who Deserve To Win The Champions League
O ye mighty Soccer Gods, how blessed are we, the fans of the sport you so nobly watch over! You’ve given us over a decade of The One, your favorite son, the one and only Lionel Messi, and we have praised you for it! In recent times, you saw fit to grant us arguably the greatest team feat of all time...
White Sox Option Jacob May To Triple-A
The Chicago White Sox have optioned center fielder Jacob May to Triple-A Charlotte, reports Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times....
The Warriors Seem More Worried About How Boring Utah Is Than The Jazz<em></em>
The Warriors recently put the finishing touches on a sweep of the Portland Trail Blazers, and they had to wait almost a full week to find out whether they’d be playing the Clippers or the Jazz in the second round. A Warriors-Jazz series is a much more interesting prospect, because even if the Clippe...
Is Gordon Hayward Good Enough To Give The Warriors Some Trouble?
Quietly, the Utah Jazz—the nominally starless, “quirky” squad, the basketblogger’s catnip—has birthed a star of its own. Despite a bout of food poisoning, Gordon Hayward led the Jazz past the Clippers in seven games, averaging 23.7 points and 7.1 rebounds per game, including a 40-point torrent in Ga...
The Bears' Mitch Trubisky Pick Keeps Looking Worse And Worse
I made the mistake of going outside this weekend instead of turning off my lights, pulling my curtains, and binging on schadenfreude from the Bears’ shocking draft decision to give up two thirds and a fourth to move up one spot to grab QB Mitchell Trubisky, whom they could’ve had at No. 3 overall an...
Connor McDavid's Third Goal Of The Playoffs Was Magical
Connor McDavid tied things up—briefly—for the Oilers tonight against Anaheim with a play that looked an awful lot like what The Great One used to do at the old Coliseum. Just, you know, two digits less....
