Which Animals Are The Worst To Eat, Morally?
People put domesticated animals on a pedestal. Sometimes humans get even more riled up when athletes kill dogs than when they kill other humans. And they flip shit over the mere suggestion of putting horse meat on the market....
Adorable Kid Thinks Candy Corn Is A Candle, Tosses It In The Garbage
A YouTuber named Kyle Quinn gave some candy corn (which is garbage) to an outrageously cute sixth-grader in China. That sixth-grader thought it was a candle, and threw it in the trash. That sixth grader is the best sixth grader....
Candy Bars, Ranked Competently
Yeah. We tried to stick to physical bars here, with one notable exception; overall, this experience was way less contentious staff-wise than that whole superheroes thing. RIP Bar None. This supersedes any previous rankings. Thank you for your time....
Superheroes, Ranked
Earlier today, after Marvel announced plans to release about 837 new superhero movies over the next few years, heated debate broke out among Deadspin staffers over such questions as whether or not it matters that Batman is a crypto-fascist, whether anyone in the entire world will be rooting for Supe...
27 Pumpkin Beers, Ranked
There are two kinds of people: those who embrace Pumpkin-Spice-Everything Season for the miracle that it is, and the godless, gourdless heathens who reject it and live a bland, spiceless life. I fall into the former category, which means it's time to combine two of my favorite activities: drinking p...
Unraveling The Confounding Reputation Of Royals Manager Ned Yost
Ned Yost has led the Royals to their best two-season stretch in a quarter century and put the 19th highest paid major league team in the World Series. But rather than garnering manager-of-the-year consideration, Yost gets shat on. Why is that?...

We're talking the film here, not the soundtrack or box set or whatnot. No poems, because the poems sucked. Thank you in advance for completely agreeing with this....
Baylor Beats TCU, With A Little Help From The Officials
A lengthy and mostly defense-free 61-58 battle between TCU and Baylor today ended with a Bears field goal that was set up by a pass interference call against the Horned Frogs. Was it a deserved flag? Maybe, but moments earlier TCU turned the ball over after a fourth-down play that ended in an awfu...
Who Gets To Spike The Football?
When the Patriots are doing well, Tom Brady doesn't get mad, and instead does fun stuff like play hot potato with Julian Edelman before spiking the ball....
TCU Runs Trick Kick Return, Screws It Up With Stupid Penalty
TCU's locked in a thriller with Oklahoma right now, and one of the coolest plays of the game came on this Sooners kickoff, during which the Horned Frogs used a bit of camouflage and their own end zone to run an especially tricky trick play....
Prince Songs To Fuck To, Ranked
Prince released two new records this week. And since Art Official Age and PlectrumElectrum (as with all releases from the world's most seductive singer) are loaded with sexiness, it's an appropriate time to attempt to quantify his past sexiness. Let's do this....

Ned Yost On His Bullpen Moves: "It Just Didn't Work Out"
Baseball games are at their most dramatic and chaotic when a team struggles to a win despite the best efforts of their manager. In recent years, Tony La Russa was a master of this; Ron Washington too. Usually, a fan base suffers in relative obscurity until it happens on a national stage. But if last...
Pedro Martinez Kills Ned Yost On TBS Postgame Show
The Royals beat the A's in the AL wild card play-in game despite, not because of, manager Ned Yost. This didn't escape TBS analyst Pedro Martinez, who absolutely lambasted Yost's decision to relieve James Shields with fellow Dominican Yordano Ventura two days after Ventura threw 73 pitches. Martin...
Royals Defeat A's, Ned Yost In Epic Play-In Game
Sacrifice bunts are rarely the correct call in baseball, so of course Ned Yost's Kansas City Royals laid down four of them in Tuesday night's wild card play-in game against the Oakland A's. Despite Jon Lester displaying uncharacteristic shakiness and the Royals' offense performing uncharacterist...
