For Your Sunday Afternoon Viewing Pleasure...
For the first time in the history of the NFL or television, there's a double-doubleheader on today. It's just a shame that Fred Smoot's not going to be around to take part. To see which four games you're getting today, peruse today's NFL Schedule, and then have a peek at today's NFL TV distribution ...
About Last Night...
• NFL: New York Giants 34, Washington Redskins 28. One of the finer performances you'll ever see from an 8-8 team. • College Basketball: Nevada 82, Gonzaga 74. You know, Gonzaga's not nearly as charming anymore. • College Football: Georgia 31, Virginia Tech 24. Man, those Bulldogs seemed awfully pro...
As The Mess Begins To Unfold...
If the Giants lose tonight, tomorrow's NFL day gets a lot more interesting and confusing. If they win tonight, a playoff spot is theirs, most likely. If they lose, though, there are four other teams, all of them terrible, that could claim the spot tomorrow. I don't care much about either of these te...
To Watch Tonight...
• NFL: New York Giants @ Washington Redskins. That Bryant Gumbel... he is magnificent. 8:00, NFL Network. • College Football: Chick-Fil-A Bowl. Georgia vs. Virginia Tech. Hopefully, tonight's the night that ESPN unveils their brand new "Beamer Cam." Georgia vs. Virginia Tech. 8:00, ESPN. • College B...
How Many Of Them Could Actually Defeine 'Peregrine'?
The fall semester was not kind to the NAIA Purdue-Calumet Peregrines. When grades came in, over half the team was declared academically ineligible, and the Peregrines canceled the rest of their season. Sixteen games will not be played, and there will also be no postseason tournament....
LeftoverDome...
• A handy little Rose Bowl preview. [Rumors and Rants] • Randy Johnson could be traded this weekend. [The Sports Frog] • Some candidates for the expected head coaching vacancy in Pittsburgh. The most intriguing name on the list? Terry Bradshaw. Okay, I made that up, but it would be awesome. [Pittsbu...
Slava Medvedenko Is The Anti-Joe Kines
But he is no less entertaining, albeit in his own special Slava way. Medvedenko just signed with the Atlanta Hawks, so you're not likely to ever hear from him again. But the good news is that the Hawks gig puts him in closer physical proximity to Joe Kines, upping the chances of the two of them havi...
Tiger Woods Hits It Like A Champ
Deviant perversion Romance is in the air today here on Deadspin, as women that I find attractive keep doing things that make them less attractive. First, Hingis goes and gets engaged... and now, Elin Nordegren has gotten herself impregnated. Tiger is presumably the father, but I wouldn't rule out ...
Today In The Premiership...
• Chelsea 2-2 Fulham. Oh, that one hurts. Taking the draw at home against a middle-of-the-table Fulham side... I guess you suck, Chelsea. It's their second straight draw, and fourth consecutive Premiership game in which they've given up two goals (not coincidentally also the fourth straight game t...
Martina Hingis Set To Marry And End The Career Of Radek Stepanek
Martina Hingis is marrying Radek Stepanek, a Czech tennis-playing douchebag who is now most famous for marrying Martina Hingis. Those of you who are disappointed that Martina is now off the market need not worry, though. Stepanek will probably be dead within the month....
Alabama Can Stop Their Search For A New Head Coach
If they don't give up with their Nick Saban flirtation and make interim head coach Joe Kines their permanent head coach, then I'm just going to hate Alabama forever. If Every Day Should Be Saturday isn't posting about this guy every week, then a crime is being perpetrated against humanity....
Johnny Fontane Will Be Starting For Palermo Soon
On Christmas eve, the wife of Rino Foschi, head coach of the Palermo soccer team, opened up a pleasant-looking present that was under their Christmas tree. Inside was a severed goat's head, covered blood....
For Your Saturday Afternoon Viewing Pleasure...
College Basketball:...
About Last Night...
• College Football: Texas Tech 44, Minnesota 41. Texas Tech comes back from trailing 38-7 in the second half. Historic. Too bad this had to happen in something called the Insight Bowl. • NBA: Suns 108, Knicks 86. Steve Nash scores his 10,000th point, Stephon Marbury still thinks he's better. • Colle...
Michael Jordan Clears Himself of Excess Baggage
Well, now I get to post while drinking. Fun. For your information, I'm drinking Yuengling because I'm at my parent's house and it's a choice between this and lactose free milk....
One More Post Until It's Time to Start Drinking
Bah, I suck at timestamps. Those of you who've already seen the last post, well, sorry about that. I also suck at millitary time. Anyway, here's some news that I found troubling if only because I thought she was dead:...

Dan Shanoff Redux: Who's Up for a Quickie?
A one time annual event, Dan Shanoff has graciously offered up his end of year, hot/not list for perusal/debate that was headed for the internet vapor since his Daily Quickie column was shutdown by those smoldering cuntrags at ESPN. After the jump, follow Shanoff's ghost to prepare yourself with thi...
Do We Look Like Frat Boys to You?
Say we were to find some gal...and I know we got a shit load of stuff to do...but I'm just saying, for the sake of argument, we stumble onto something.This person's vulnerable as hell. You know, young thing, wallflower type or whatever. Disfigured in some way. Some woman who is pretty sure that life...
