Jeremy Hellickson Vows To Never Hit Another Triple
The designated hitter is a farce and an abomination, but it does keep your pitcher from getting all tuckered out after a jaunt around the basepaths. That’s what happened to Phillies starter Jeremy Hellickson on Monday, after a line drive to right field made him the first Phillies pitcher to hit a tr...
The Spurs Forced Overtime On A Beautifully Designed Inbounds Play
Down two against the Grizzlies with just 2.7 seconds remaining, you’d probably expect the Spurs to try and get the ball into Kawhi Leonard’s hands. That’s what the Grizzlies thought too, so when LaMarcus Aldridge screened Leonard’s man, Wayne Selden, his defender, Brandan Wright, went with Leonard t...
That's Probably It For Jimmy Rollins
It’s likely most baseball fans didn’t even realize that Jimmy Rollins was with the San Francisco Giants at spring training this year. The 38-year-old former Phillies star signed a minor league deal with the team in December, and was a long shot to make the opening day roster. After going 5-for-42 in...
Aw, This Career Minor Leaguer Tearing Up Over Making The Phillies' Roster Is Great
Brock Stassi is 27 and has spent his six-year career in professional baseball bouncing around the Phillies’ minor league system. He found out today that he’d get his first taste of the big leagues with a spot on the team’s Opening Day roster, and his reaction was very earnest and very sweet with ple...
Our Petulant Piss Boy President Must Be Treated Like A Baby
All journalists know that if you’re interviewing a childish little sensitive pisshead baby, you must do so very carefully, to avoid making him run out of the room crying. One of these little pisshead babies is now our president....
The Latest Evidence That Vince Carter Is An Ageless Wonder
Vince Carter just turned 40, yet he’s still playing 24 minutes per game for the Grizzlies and has recently joined the starting lineup as Memphis lurches down the stretch. His 18th season hasn’t been short of cool highlights, and this evening, he drained a half-court shot before casually dunking it b...
Phillies Catcher Recovers With Diving Grab After Bobbling The Ball
Ryan Hanigan is fourth on the Phillies’ depth chart at catcher, but he got a little time in the spotlight today with this diving catch to save face after bobbling the ball. (Insofar as any player gets time in the spotlight at this point in March, at least.)...
Plies Infiltrated The Florida Gulf Coast Band Last Night
Deadspin’s favorite life guru Plies took a break from dispensing wisdom on Instagram to take in yesterday’s NCAA tournament game between Florida State and Florida Gulf Coast. Fittingly, the musician found himself drawn to his fellow musicians and wound up in the center of the FGCU band:...
Do Not Go Into This St. Patrick's Day Themed Queso Recipe With False Expectations
We’re certainly in favor of “kicking back” and having a little fun on St. Patrick’s day, a celebration of the devastating effects of alcoholism. But we hate to see anyone fall for click-bait articles concerned more with attention-grabbing headlines than delivering on promises. ...
Martin Jones's Collar Made A Lucky Save
The Wild beat the Sharks 3-1 last night, and it would have been worse if not for Martin Jones’s totally accidental, totally unrepeatable save on a Chris Stewart shot. The Wild players threw their arms up as if Stewart had scored, but you can’t see what happened till you check the replays:...
Lorde Is At Least 40 Years Old, According To My Research
Kiwi songstress Lorde claims to have been born in 1996. This would make the singer-songwriter 20 years old. Her latest video, however, presents us with an alternative set of facts. That’s right: according to my research, Lorde is 40. ...
The Ben Bishop Trade Is Startlingly Smart
The first reactions to Sunday’s Ben Bishop trade were naturally along the lines of What the hell? Bishop, probably the best goalie in Tampa Bay Lightning history, is headed to a Kings team that only the day before got back its own franchise goalie, Jonathan Quick, after a four-month injury rehab. Bu...

Big Fat Goalkeeper Faces Gambling Probe For Eating Pie During Match [UPDATE]
Large boy Wayne Shaw, the backup goalkeeper for fifth-division Sutton United, has inevitably become a meme over the course of his team’s cinderella run to the fifth round of the FA Cup, which pits teams from up and down the league pyramid, and leads to wonderful, silly matchups like yesterday: Big, ...
Chris Christie Tries Sports Bloviating, Is Bad At That, Too
Chris Christie, a man who lacks charm, wit, or the support of either major political party, went on SNY TV last night to stan for Mets by taking weak-ass shots at the Phillies....
Donald Trump Says U.S. Media Ignored These 78 Terror Attacks
Yesterday in Tampa, Donald Trump complained that the “very, very dishonest press” purposely ignores acts of terror around the world. When pressed for examples, the White House last night released a list of 78 incidents it called terrorism that it says were overlooked by U.S. national media. That li...
