R.I.P. Paul Mazursky

<em>MLB The Show</em> Easter Egg: Umpire Shows Yasiel Puig How To Pimp A Homer

David Ortiz Takes Off For First Before Ball Four Is Thrown
Some might say this was another dick move by Ortiz, walking to first before actually being walked. I would not! Last night's 2-1 Cubs win somehow took 3:35, and I am in favor of anything that makes Red Sox games shorter....
When And Where Do Americans "Rise And Grind"?
For years, the phrase "rise and grind" has inspired Twitter users to get on their feet and face the day. When is America rising, we wondered, and where is it grinding the most? ...

Young Marlins Fan Returns For His Second Dance
We were all captivated (and slightly weirded out) by the Vine of that little Marlins fan who freaked the hell out when he got on camera. Tonight, the Marlins found him again, so yes, that rascal's a real dancing machine. ...

Every Country We Played Trolled Us With "Yes We Can!"
The Belgians had faith in their boys coming into today's Round of 16 match against the USMNT. Following the tradition of every other team we've played in this World Cup, one paper thought it would be funny to turn the famous Obama campaign slogan "Yes we can!" against us. They were right. They could...

Thank you for your continued support of Deadspin. That was a tough one....
The U.S. Lost And Everything Sucks
And that's how it ends, after a high-scoring, vein-popping extra time that provided the variety of heartbreak we never would have expected over the first 90: the sense that they could have done it.

Belgium's Extra-Time Goals Put Them Up 2-0
A rough sequence for Matt Besler led to Belgium's goal early in extra time. He got run through by just-subbed-in Romelu Lukaku, then over-committed while trying to help out on Kevin De Bruyne. Tim Howard can't save 'em all; but there's plenty of time left. ...

Off a hell of a header from Jermaine Jones, Chris Wondolowski—poacher extraordinaire—skied the U.S.'s best chance at a goal all day. (The flag was up [Update: This is in dispute now], so it wouldn't have counted anyway. At least be thankful we were spared that shitstorm.)...
