Deadspin I-Team: What Exactly Is Johnny Damon Trying To Communicate Here?

Examining The Balance Of Power In The AL East
I've been in a meat coma since The Fourth, and have only just seen this great moment from Friday's Yankees-Red Sox game. A couple of questions here, of course: What if the ball had stayed perched atop the fence, instead of falling back onto the field of play as it did? And what's the ruling if, say,...
Johnny Damon, The Ultimate Go Away Player
Everyone makes a whole fuss about the comeback player of the year award in baseball — which this year seems destined for Carlos Pena, though there's no shortage of candidates — but The Angry T suggests a far more enjoyable honor: The Go Away Award, given to the player who clearly showed this year th...
Baseball Players Hitting Each Other With Chairs
For those of you who pay attention to such matters, TNA wrestling is having some sort of pay-per-view event this weekend that will feature "Team Pierzynski" vs. "Team Eckstein." That's A.J.

Bigfoot Exposed?
We have no idea whether or not Bigfoot is real; heck, half the time we doubt the existence of our paperboy. But there is one brave group who is keeping the faith, and now they claim to have proof.

Chalk One Up For The Little Guy
And so the debate rages: Does Johnny Damon, or doesn't he, suck? We refuse to take sides, but one thing we can report is that our nation's babies are now involved. A New Bedford housewife, still miffed over Damon's defection to the Yankees, had been trying to sell "Johnny Damon Sucks" baby bibs on...
The Closer: Fear The Awesome Hitting Might Of Mark Mulder
Notes from a day of baseball. • 1. Mulder Gets A Little Raucous During Housewarming Party. When they said that the new Busch Stadium would be a pitcher's ballpark, we didn't know they meant it this way.

Johnny Damon's Adjusted Swing
Via the brand new and most entertaining blog The Big Lead, we were pointed to an interview new New York Yankees Johnny Damon gave to New York Magazine's Stephen Rodrick. The story itself is a good read — we love the analogy of Damon sent to the Yankees to remove the collective stick from their col...

"It's 20 Extra Bucks For A Happy Ending"
We run this unusually large photo of new Yankee center fielder/apparent masseuse Johnny Damon, recently shorn to play for the Bombers, because, well, because sometimes, Deadspin likes to pretend it's a snuff site....

Johnny Damon Is Still Gone
Just to be mean, the New York Post ran this photo illustration on its back page today, and we officially enter Day 2 of the Johnny Damon to the Yankees story: Acceptance.
