Daniel Bryan WWE HOF Speech: Wrestling's Fake, But Here's A Real Story
Daniel Bryan's WWE Hall of Fame induction speech for child cancer victim Connor "The Crusher" Michalek not only brought the pro wrestling superstar to tears but also—to the shock of some viewers—tore down the façade of wrestling storylines multiple times, admitting that "everything I've done...is ...
Jets Trade For Brandon Marshall
The Bears have agreed to send WR Brandon Marshall to the Jets, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. The haul hasn't been reported yet (Update: a fifth rounder), but it shouldn't be huge: Chicago was desperate to move Marshall before his $7.5 million guarantee kicked in next week....
No Brandon Marshalls Have Been Traded
It's hot-stove season (or whatever) in the NFL, and we've already seen our fair share of surprising moves. But with free agency still yet to actually open, a fake Twitter account and a player with the same name as another have teamed up to sow some quality confusion....
Seton Hall Keeps Losing; Player Punches Opponent In Head
Since sophomore guard Jaren Sina left Seton Hall's men's basketball team last week, the Pirates have dropped two more games: a Valentine's Day loss to Providence and a Monday night blowout to Villanova. Oh, and junior Sterling Gibbs hit a Villanova player in the head....
Seton Hall's Men's Basketball Team Has A Lot Going On Right Now
Sophomore starting guard Jaren Sina abruptly left the Seton Hall men's basketball team Wednesday, and his decision reportedly stems from locker-room tumult....
Peter King Defends Hall Of Fame’s Right To Honor Alleged Serial Rapist
The NFL season is over, which means it's probably a good time for big-time NFL writers to go home and take a nap. And it seems no certified water-carrier needs a break more than SI's Peter King, who took to Twitter last night to defend the Hall of Fame candidacy of … alleged serial rapist Darren Sh...
Horrible Man Has Terrible Idea
"Before we die, there will be an NFL theme park. In fact, an executive for the Pro Football Hall of Fame recently proposed a version for Canton, Ohio, in which actual elderly NFL retirees would live in a nearby 'village.'" [Grantland]...
2014 Deadspin Hall Of Fame Inductee: Tommy Craggs
Tommy Craggs has left us to lord over every other Gawker Media site for the next year or so, after which he'll probably need work. After getting a big ol' boner in the quest to verify that Manti Te'o's dead girlfriend was indeed fake and turning Deadspin into a site for communist propaganda, he no...
2014 Deadspin Hall Of Fame Nominee: Butthole Eaten At Lions Tailgate
A butthole was eaten in a parking lot. Butt action forever....
Dumbest Man Alive Gives Dumbest Possible Explanation For Dumb HOF Vote
This year, I decided to make my life a little happier by giving up on my usual winter pastime of hate-reading terrible Hall of Fame columns written by trolls and gibbering nitwits. Stan Keister of the Hackensack Courier-Educator-Herald voted for no one and spent his entire column on the greatness of...
2014 Deadspin Hall Of Fame Nominee: Clark The Cub
The Chicago Cubs introduced a new mascot named Clark last January. We made fun of him for being a pantsless freak. Then, we gave him a dick and balls. Then, a news station used our photo of Clark with his cock and balls. That was fun....
2014 Deadspin Hall Of Fame Nominee: Dan Le Batard's Hall Of Fame Ballot
We wanted a Baseball Hall of Fame vote both to make a farce of the increasingly absurd electoral process and to give our readers the opportunity to have a say in that process. Someone gave us his vote. That someone was Dan Le Batard. Thanks, Dan!...
Curt Schilling Says Being A Republican Cost Him HOF Votes
If there is one thing you can count on, it is Curt Schilling being wrong about absolutely everything....
2014 Deadspin Hall Of Fame Nominee: Going To Temecula
It was a Christmas miracle: A Twitter argument about Kobe Bryant got so heated that one guy drove to Temecula, Cali., to try and fight the other. (We debated the merits of this.) Thanks to @SnottieDrippen and @MyTweetsRealAF, "going to Temecula" now means more than taking a trip to wine country....
2014 Deadspin Hall Of Fame Nominee: Roger Goodell
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell showed his ass to everyone this year. The leak of surveillance footage showing Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice knocking out his then-fiancée in an elevator led to Goodell, who'd spent years carefully cultivating a reputation for square-jawed competence, stan...
