You Can't Tell, But Howie Long Is Erect
If we know our average Deadspin reader, you were obviously watching "Fox & Friends" on the Fox News Channel this morning. But just in case ...

It's Deadspin HOF Nominations Time
Heavens, it seems like it's been almost 360 days since we introduced the Deadspin Hall of Fame, though it's only been 51 weeks. Holy bejeezus: Our little site is turning two years old in a couple of weeks. Well, guess what, folks: It's time to take nominations for the 2007 class....
The Irish Sing And Sway
We're not sure why we find this video of the Notre Dame football team singing the Irish theme song to their fans so hypnotic, but we too....
ESPN.com EIC Knows What The Kids Want
A couple of weeks ago, we helped rid you of the annoying video on the front page of ESPN.com. Well, good news: If you weren't able to figure out how to do that, new ESPN.com editor-in-chief Rob King is gonna take care of that for you....
Barry Bonds Is Taking Curt Schilling Deep

You're Doin' A Heckuva Job, 'Bama
Remember those federal tax breaks that were supposed to be for New Orleans Katrina victims to rebuild their homes and businesses? You'll be happy to know that someone, at least, is taking advantage of them. Developers in Tuscaloosa, Ala., are using the Katrina tax shelters to construct $1 million co...
Pac Man Is "Wrestling" At The Wrong Time
Before your proverbial panties are proverbially bunched by Pac Man Jones not really wrestling, the fine gents at Rich Kotite Banged Your Mom remind us that, in the olden days of 12 years ago, NFL players didn't just wrestle, they headlined Wrestlemania. There was no worry about injury back then, tho...
Our Rick Ankiel Weekend
It really has been bizarre to watch the reaction to Rick Ankiel's triumphant return to St. Louis as a power-hitting outfielder. We understand that it's an inspiring story — obviously — but it's still odd to see a guy we've been quietly stalking following for seven years now suddenly leading newscast...
Pac Man Jones, Making It Pain

Sergio Garcia's Mind, It Likes To Wander

But maybe we don't need to do any of the work. The Sports Elitists recounts a Sergio ...
He's A Rick ... House
When Rick Ankiel made his debut, I was sort of hoping he'd continuously foul tip the ball to the backstop, just like old times when he was a pitcher.

Side Effects Of Finasteride May Include Dizziness, Shortness Of Breath, And Suspension
Rick Guttormson had it all. Baseball talent, beautiful hair, a last name that rolls off the tongue, and the adoration of countless Japanese fan dancers. When the American Dream doesn't come through for someone, this is probably the next best thing. Then it all came crashing down in the form of a 20-...
