The Time Tampa Bay's Rookies Put On Wigs, Dressed In Bikinis, And Danced In Front Of The Green Monster
Oh, to be a Major League Baseball rookie. Tampa Bay Rays ace David Price recorded this video yesterday, and while some teams will make their newbies carry children's luggage or dress funny to and from the stadium, that won't fly for Tampa Bay. You've got to get in bikinis and dance around in front...

Heath Bell Called Ozzie Guillen To Apologize, And Ozzie Accidentally Deleted The Voicemail Without Listening To It
Remember when the Marlins were a trendy playoff pick? New stadium, new manager, big payroll, etc. Maybe it's because the Red Sox exist, but people are forgetting just what an astonishing failure Miami's 2012 has been....

The NFLPA Wants A Concussion Expert On The Sidelines. The League Says Nope.
Every morning, the fine folks at Sports Radio Interviews sift through the a.m. drive-time chatter to bring you the best interviews with coaches, players, and personalities across the sports landscape. Today: A specialist in the press box is apparently good enough for the NFL....

Beer of the Week: Double D Blonde
Once we get past the name of Double D Blonde, the wheaty, quick-drinking blonde ale out of Oregon's Hop Valley Brewing Company, you can appreciate it as a hoppy little number that won't offend you, won't overwhelm you. It's lager-golden and keg-ready at 20 IBU and 4.9 percent abv. It has a sharp not...

Ballhawk Zack Hample Was Kicked Out Of Nationals Park Last Night, And He Is Pissed About It
We've met Zack Hample before, and we haven't exactly been kind to him. That's because Hample is a ballhawk—a member of that fraternity of obsessive dudes who hang around ballparks and trample babies whenever Omar Infante flips a baseball into the stands. Nevertheless, Zack reached out to us this mo...

The NFL Had A Record Arrest-Free Streak Going Until Michael Turner's DUI
In Week 1 of the preseason, Chad Johnson was arrested on domestic violence charges. After Monday night's win, Michael Turner was collared for DUI. That's two in a little over a month, and a reasonable person could look at that and say, "boy, NFL players get arrested a lot." Except: the span between ...

Man Arrested For ESPN.com Comment That Threatened To Kill Kids Over New LeBron Sneaker
We hate to use such cliched terms, but it's hard to describe the ESPN.com comment section without words like "cesspool" and "wretched hive of scum and villainy" and "somehow even worse than Yahoo's comment section." But that's an unfair generalization. Not everyone there is horribly racist or a ward...

This Is The 53-Year-Old Man Who Pushed A Teen Off His Lawnmower, Tebowed, Then Drove Off
Consider this your update, hopefully the last one, on the story that captivated a nation. Police had described the suspect as bald with glasses, and, yep, I'd say David McCosby fits the bill....

Banner At High School Football Stadium Has Regrettable Typo
Of all the letters in all the words on that banner, the Red Lion Area School District in central Pennsylvania just had to forget to include that one. The lesson here: Never underestimate the importance of quality pubic education....

Another Giants-Dodgers Series, Another Fan Assault
Despite the heightened police presence at AT&T Park, a regular measure since Bryan Stow was beaten into a coma in Los Angeles last year, there was another incident over the weekend. Christopher Torii Smith, 26, was arrested after assaulting a fan in the bathroom during Sunday's game against the Dodg...

<i>Game Of Thrones</i> House Sigils, As Re-Imagined By A Nike Designer
Darrin Crescenzi is a Portland-based graphic designer, and something of a go-to guy for Nike. He's responsible for, among other things, the Team USA Olympic jerseys, Nike's Livestrong campaign, and various logos and brandmarks going back half a decade. These are all corporate things that are hard fo...

BU Men's Hockey Team Will Try To Change Its "Culture Of Sexual Entitlement"
The panel in charge of investigating the Boston University men's hockey team's "culture and climate" released its findings today, and it concluded that the student-athletes in the program should be treated as if they were merely students....

Dusty Baker Addresses Uniform Malfunction With An Assist From His Pitching Coach
There are reasons you, as a manager, want a reliable staff of coaches on the bench: To manage the pitchers, keep an eye on the team when times get tough, and to let you know (with an ever-so-casual hand over the mouth) that your fly has been open for who-knows-how-long. We see what you did there, ...

Deadspin's Sign Of The Apocalypse

The Rice Marching Band Took Some Halftime Shots At "U$C"
Thanks to Logan who sent in this photo of the Rice MOB (Marching Owl Band)'s performance at halftime of last night's season opener against UCLA. It seems, judging from Twitter, that the entire show was USC-themed—maybe some common ground with their Bruin opponents, or maybe just taking advantage of ...
