Wear The Jersey Of Your Favorite Player's Venereal Disease!
You might remember the famous OutSports expose on the words that the NFL won't allow you to print on the back of their jerseys. Apparently, this guy, from the Atlanta game last weekend, was somehow able to iron on this tribute to Ron Mexico himself....

Please, Someone, Make Strahan Just Go Away
All right, we'll say it: We absolutely do not believe Michael Strahan when he does anything anymore. Everything the guy does seems so calculated, so media-savvy, so gay dramatic ... well, we just don't buy it anymore. If this guy played in Jacksonville, no one would know about him, or care....
Michael Irvin Brings The Locker Room To Your Radio Dial
Your average American sports fan, who isn't aware of sports blogs and didn't stay in an airport hotel last night (and therefore didn't read USA Today yesterday) must have been confused last evening when, apropos of nothing, their daily trip to ESPN.com revealed that ESPN grammarian Michael Irvin was...
Who's Sorry Now? Hand Jive Edition
Who's Sorry Now? is going away for a little while. All this remorse has been overwhelming, and we're sad to report that we began drinking again. So we'll be resting at a secure rehabilitation facility in a country setting in Northern California, and we may even get Robin Williams' old room. But firs...
Michael Irvin Has A Theory About Tony Romo's Speed
We mentioned this briefly yesterday, but it kind of looks like the story has a little bit of legs under it now, so let's dive back in. ESPN "analyst" Michael Irvin, appearing disheveled (or as disheveled as anyone can sound on the radio), was on the Dan Patrick Show on Monday, and apparently he had ...
Revisiting Irvin's 2005 Thanksgiving
As we approach the time of giving of thanks and reminisces of much Native American bloodshed — and we scream to the heavens that we won't be able to watch the Thanksgiving night game because Time Warner still isn't showing The NFL Network in New York City — we look back to last Thanksgiving and an o...
Steve Young Can't Take It Anymore
We're sure, in the wake of a ridiculous $1.7 billion dollar deal, the folks at YouTube won't let this stand very long, but if you watched "SportsCenter" this morning, you say Michael Irvin — shockingly! — ramble on like, well, a retard for about five minutes about why the Ravens belonged in the top ...

Now, Now, We're Sure Irvin Has Close To The Right Number Of Chromosomes
So that whole Tom Jackson calling Michael Irvin a "retard" thing from yesterday? Absolutely true, absolutely happened, and here's video, via Dejuiced....
Eventually, It Will Just Be A Graphic Below Irvin's Name
So we haven't actually seen this, so we need someone to confirm it for us, preferably with video. Let that be our disclaimer prologue....
Jordan Banned From Mountainous Region Of Western U.S.?
There was much wailing and gnashing of teeth last month at the news of Michael Jordan's acrobatic withdrawal from the American Century Championship Celebrity Golf Tournament at Stateline, Nev. Particularly annoying for many fans who had devoted large hunks of time — and considerable coin — to get ...
I Didn't Know That Baseball's Unwritten Rules Mentioned The Holocaust
There are people who love sports talk radio, and there are people who hate it. The following clip, from the always worthwhile Fire Joe Morgan will likely thrill both sides....
Michael Irvin Arrested!
You know, it's a sad day when ESPN analyst Michael Irvin is arrested for something, and nobody even notices or cares....
Get Drunk With ESPN
We've been waiting for someone to come up with a definitive ESPN drinking game, and even though this might not be the definitive one, it's pretty close. Here's a fun "Pardon The Interruption" sampling:...
A Night Of 1,000 Groundouts
As many have pointed out, the All-Star Game last night was ultimately pointless, if just because it doesn't really matter who has home-field advantage when the American League is just going to sweep anyway....
Deadspin Field Trip: Tahoe Celebrity Golf Tournament
Ever wonder what goes on behind the scenes at a real celebrity golf tournament? Yeah, neither have we. But because it's right next door to two major casinos, we are proud to report that Deadspin associate editor Rick Chandler, who does more work around here than people realize, is going to attend ...

Well, He Has To Find SOME Reason To Sue
Wouldn't you think, if you were fortunate enough to have a striking physical resemblance to one of the most famous athletes/personalities on the planet, it might have some benefits? Might get you into a club easier? Maybe pick up a girl or two?...
Michael Strahan's Real "Alternative Lifestyle"
Last week's silly Michael Strahan could be gay rumor — started by an estranged wife in the midst of divorce proceedings — has been pretty much discredited by everyone, including the woman who made the allegation. But if you weren't convinced enough, a reader sends in a story of seeing Strahan and ...
