We would be remiss if we did not pay tribute to Mark Lisanti, our colleague at Defamer, who is leaving the site after almost four years. We weren't sure we wanted to do this "blog" business when we were thinking of starting Deadspin, but reading what Mark did on a daily basis over at Defamer was the...

Roger Clemens, Talking Himself Further Down The Hole

What Today Has Meant, If Anything
Who knows what one can take from the ridiculousness on display in the Clemens testimony today? As we suspected, no one comes out looking good, and we didn't really learn anything either.

Roger Clemens' Supposed, Alleged Day Of Reckoning
As you know, we've had a hard time getting ourselves worked up about the Clemens-in-front-of-Congress hype; someone's telling the truth, someone's lying, and what it has to do at all with the steroid "problem" is beyond our comprehension. But hey: It's possible that Roger Clemens' entire reputation...
Roger Clemens Vs. Congress ... Quien Es Mas Macho?
We find it difficult to work ourselves up about this Roger Clemens Congress business. We think it's because the purpose of this has all been so lost. Remember, these Congressional "trials" were meant to get to the bottom of this steroid mess, find out how we got here, for the kids! But that's not wh...
