ESPN Pal Blocks For Favre In Mississippi Boondoggle, But He’s Not In The Clear Just Yet
Brett Favre has been around long enough to know how to play the media game almost as well as he played football, which of course he did at a Hall of Fame level. It’s a big part of why even though he lost his Wrangler endorsement after sending pictures of the contents of his jeans, Favre has continue...
The Coolest Bo Jackson Story You’ve Never Heard Before

These Are The Most Overrated NHL Players Since 1990. Because We Said So
Two weeks ago, we wrote about the most overrated NBA players of the past 30 years. It was a collaborative effort among the Deadspin staff. The list included all-time great players who are beloved, like Kobe Bryant, Allen Iverson and Shaquille O’Neal. That went over great! The next day, we published ...
I Live Near The Raiders Stadium Site. They Are Endangering My Life — And Yours — By Continuing Work There

Browns Even Suck At Cutting A Player Who Threatened To Kill Their Fans
The Cleveland Browns were unbelievably bad in their 24-19 loss to the Denver Broncos. Worse than Jets losing to Dolphins bad. Coverage sucked. Play call sucked. Clock management sucked. And not for the first time this season. Or even the second time. With 3:23 remaining on the clock, down five poin...

Gonzaga Coach Mark Few On Paying Players: What About Mexico, And Also, Uh, The Homeless?

Markelle Fultz Shooting Form Update: At Least The Dunks Look Cool?
Markelle Fultz played basketball in an NBA uniform for the first time since last November on Saturday, in a preseason game between his Orlando Magic and the San Antonio Spurs.

Mark Letestu Must Answer For His Crime Of Downing A Whole Mustard Packet On The Bench [Update]
I’m sure Mark Letestu figured that nobody was looking. It was preseason, for one, and he wasn’t even on the ice when the stoppage of play hit. So it’s fair to assume that he thought he could sneak just one disgusting mustard packet in without everyone thinking he was a creep. He was wrong. The camer...
Markelle Fultz Shooting Form Update: Tempting Fate In A Hype Video
Nobody’s heard much from Markelle Fultz since he was traded to the Orlando Magic last February, which is probably for the best. Aside from getting healthy and rebuilding his shoddily rebuilt jump shot from the ground up, what Fultz needed most was some time out of the spotlight. That time appears to...

Reggie Bush Returned To The Coliseum And Had A Little Fun
Reggie Bush, as the NCAA’s draconian sanctions of USC stipulate, has been permanently disassociated from the program; his records were never set, his wins were never won, he’s not allowed sideline access to practices and games. In fact, you’re not even allowed to think about Reggie Bush’s career at ...

Dipshit NFL Reporter Exposes His Entire Ass With Blockheaded Tweets About Antonio Brown's Rape Case
Oftentimes, the worst examples of society’s despicable penchant for immediately blaming and/or discrediting women who report being victims of sexual assault are relegated to anonymous, obscure social media posters and website commenters. Other times, the dumbfucks embodying the trend are people with...
The Fallout From The Mike Scott Fight Has Shaken Philadelphia To Its Core
Sixers forward Mike Scott had a typical Philadelphia sports Sunday this week: He went to an Eagles tailgate, got into a fistfight, then brushed himself off and attended the game—a plot so hacky it’s straight out of the movie they made about Philly sports degenerates, Silver Linings Playbook. Mike Sc...
