Wally Szczerbiak Is: Superman
Wally Szczerbiak is gainfully employed, unlike everyone else in the top 10 of his draft class. That temporary triumph doesn't make a Superman costume anything but a bit of a reach for the Szczerb: maybe someone like Aquaman or Jubilee would be more appropriate. [Twitter]...
Evgeni Malkin And Sidney Crosby Are: Hairy Guy And Gladiator
Not sure if that's "pimp", or the more general "hirsute man from the 70s." But to echo the comments every Penguins fan, Geno probably should have gone as the Invisible Man: he already has the costume. Meanwhile, someone ask Crosby if he likes gladiator movies. [Twitter]...
Paul Bissonnette Is: Hacksaw Jim Duggan
That's a brave, brave costume for the Coyotes tough guy, from the same team Halloween party that brought us the latest blackface costume debate. More importantly, how did the real, out-of-shape Jim Duggan walk around in briefs for a decade and none of us thought twice about it? [Twitter]...
Rob Gronkowski's Brother Goes As Rob Gronkowski For Halloween
Earlier today, Rob Gronkowski's younger brother, Glenn, tweeted a picture of his Halloween costume. Oh, those crazy younger brothers. He's a college student, at Kansas State, so this costume actually fits his budget perfectly. No Shirt, and a jersey from his brother. The whole thing is priceless. W...

Texas Pumpkins Accused Of Racism Over Ron Washington Blackface Costumes
Two Dallas-area pumpkins have caused a stir over their costume choices for local Halloween contests. The pumpkins, one from Irving-based 21st Century Dental (left) and the other a part of the Dawson & Sodd law firm in Corsicana (right), showed up to a statewide "pumpkin contest" dressed in the offen...
Come One, Come All To "Coon-O-Ween," The Halloween Party With Special Guest Aqib Talib (UPDATE)

Happy Halloween! Meet The Human Centipede Pumpkin
We here at Deadspin are great fans of the Human Centipede series of films—the second of which hit theaters a week and a half ago. And we're also great fans of Halloween, or something. So when some reader—in this case Adam K., of lovely Wrightsville Beach, NC—sends us a Human Centipede-carved pumpkin...
The 2011 MLB Rookie Hazing Costume Collection
Forcing rookies to dress in costume is an MLB tradition that's as childish as it is time-honored. A gloriously dumb reminder that most baseball players are manchildren, forever stuck in high school. We are too; it's a major reason baseball players are perhaps easier to connect with than athletes in ...
The Self-Fulfilling Prophecy Of Jay Cutler's Choice In Halloween Costumes
Not eight weeks after Chicago Bears QB Jay Cutler's manliness was called into question after a playoff injury against the eventual Super Bowl champions, tipster Jeff S. forwards this "gem" of a photo from his days at Vanderbilt. It was Halloween 2005 when tough-guy and BMOC quarterback and pal disg...
No, Halloween Revelers, That Wasn't The Real Scott Van Pelt
As far as ESPN anchor Halloween costumes go, the SVP is probably the easiest to pull off. Glasses, a microphone, a razor and some Turtle Wax. And a affable-yet-acerbic wit....
Here Are Some Photos Of People Pretending To Be Injured Tony Romo
It's funny because the Dallas Cowboys are already 1-5. (And because there are some Favre/Sterger pics coming up soon.) ...
The Brian-Wilson-o'-Lantern Never Caught On, As It Invariably Made Kids Wet Themselves
Because no one reads the newspaper, and SportsCenter's anchors are too perky for this early in the morning, Deadspin combs the best of the broadsheets and internets to bring you everything you need to know to start your day....
Saints To Ruin Halloween
Some New Orleans moms — dubbed, gag me, the Treat Dats — want to move trick-or-treating to the 30th to avoid a conflict with the Saints' Halloween night game. The trick: the Steelers are going to ruin their shit anyway. [Times-Picayune]...
Wayne Rooney Is Not An Animal. Wayne Rooney Is A Human Being.

Sports-O-Ween III: Season Of The Itchy Sweatpants
You people just will not let this go, will you? Just moments after I put up the last gallery of unfortunate costume horrors, my inbox was flooded with still more masquerade submissions. Seriously, folks, this is becoming a sickness....
The Sports-O-Ween That Wouldn't Die
Halloween is long gone, but people still keep submitting their terribly lame and occasionally offensive sports costumes so that we can post them on this site and embarrass their loved ones. Who are we to deny them their infamy?...
