The Princess Diaries: Deadspin Ladies Deconstruct Erin Andrews
Once upon a time, a site called The Black Table had a regular feature entitled Waxing Off, in which women gathered in an online roundtable to discuss issues of the day, and also to make fun of Will Leitch's shoes. And so we got to thinking: With so many great female sports bloggers out there, why no...
Did ESPN Blatantly Rip Off This Innocent-Looking Bald Man? You Be The Judge
So ESPN rolls out this new feature recently by Thomas Neuman called Ultimate NFL Power Rankings, in which he ranks the 32 NFL franchises. It's a somewhat complicated formula and a fun read, but wait a minute here. It's also looking very familiar. That's because a Dallas-Fort Worth-area radio sportsc...
Getting To Know Jose Reyes' Alleged Road Beef
So yesterday, after I posted the New York Daily News story about Jose Reyes' alleged side-sex lady ,"Bentley Matthews," Deadspin received an interesting email from an individual who said she was a relative of Ms. Matthews and claimed to know the "real identity of Jose Reyes' mistress."

A Few Moments With Gary Smith
Sports Illustrated's Gary Smith has won the National Magazine Award four times, which is almost as impressive as the fact that almost no one knows his name.

Longoria Studly, But Rays' Division Push Still Needs More Cowbell
It's getting more and more annoying to attend a game at Tropicana Field. The guy sitting to your right is wearing a mohawk. And the guy to your left is banging a cowbell.

The Josh Howard Question Veers Into Dark, Creepy Email Territory
We get our share of nutty email around these parts — oh, do we ever — but I'm fairly confident that it's nothing compared to what Mark Cuban finds each morning when he opens his laptop.

He's Just Your Average Octogenarian Bodybuilder Who Will Not Die
Hmm. Yes, I guess this could technically be categorized as "Nightmare Fuel" but at the same time, there is something comforting in the fact that 80-year-old bodybuilders like Ray Moon do exist. Actually, not all. These men should only exist in the darkest corners of a mescaline-ravaged mind or a Gui...

The Dirty.com alerted the media to the site's "exclusive" photographic evidence that Mets' shortstop Jose Reyes was having an ongoing affair with a stripper-sounding woman named Bentley Matthews a couple of days ago and most outlets ignored it.

Cowboys Love Them Wide Open Spaces
We mentioned this in morning blogdome, but felt that it needed to be expanded. See what I did there? Scientists estimate that sometime in the future, perhaps a hundred years from now, the typical human ass will be wider than a Subaru Outback. In Texas, they're already getting close. As workers begin...

For those of us lucky enough to be Facebook friends with esteemed author and cantankerous blog-basher Buzz Bissinger, we were all treated with a special surprise in the last 10 minutes when it appeared Buzz had made the effort to write something on our walls. Not the case. It seems poor Buzz got Fac...
Topless Midget Wrestling Controversy Rocks Sleepy Illinois Community
When we allow the government to take away our right to watch tiny ladies wrestle topless, what's next? Will they take away our right to vote? To breathe?

Afternoon Blogdome: Yeah, That Headline Needs A Little Bit Of A Trim
• I see what you did there: Those crafty rapscallions in the editorial department at the Notre Dame Rivals site are either snickering right now or getting lambasted by the higher-ups.

Possibly The Most Disturbing Baseball Hazing Photo You'll Ever See
This baseball hazing thing officially went too far on Wednesday, when San Diego Padres rookies were forced to dress as Hooters waitresses; with one there on the right completing the ensemble with fake breasts.

Cubs Chase Old Man Off Their Lawn
Awhile ago we told you the story of Leo Hildebrand, the 104-year-old Cubs fan whose one big wish was to throw out the first pitch for a game at Wrigley Field. Of course he'd probably need a relay man, and a diaper change to complete the task. But still, how could the Cubs deny the only person in Chi...
