It's Bryce Petty Time
The New York Jets still have four games left to play, but last night’s no-show against the Colts was an effective and fitting end to their season. The Jets are 3-9 now, and whatever combination of luck and competence that got them to a 10-6 record last season is nowhere to be found....

Some Thoughts From My Mom On The National Dog Show
Every year my mom watches the National Dog Show. I’m pretty sure she has two motivations for doing this: The dogs are cute, and my dad and I won’t bother her during it. This makes her the perfect kind of expert for Deadspin readers—experienced and willing to speak her mind—so I asked her to predict ...
Steph Curry Nailed This Shot From Goddamn Mars
I’m not sure Steph Curry is ever truly out of shooting range, and he should be deputized to chuck from wherever he damn well pleases. Tonight, he tossed off a double-pump heave from two-thirds court or so, and he swished it. Sadly, it didn’t count....

Todd Graham Confronts "Chickenshit" Mike Leach During Post-Game Handshake
The Pac-12 fined Washington State head coach Mike Leach $10,000 earlier this week for claiming Arizona State steals signals from opposing teams—something Sun Devils head coach Todd Graham admitted to last year. Graham wasn’t taking kindly to the allegations this time around, though, telling Leach du...

Noah Droddy Has Been Called Majestic: That's Not The Half Of It
Nobody was taking Noah Droddy’s picture, which seemed strange considering the rail-thin runner’s recent rise to relative fame has been as much about his sensational (for the track world) ill brah appearance as his fast races, and the unlikely combo of the two. ...

The Blue Jays beat the Orioles in the eleventh inning of tonight’s Wild Card game thanks to a huge three-run dinger from Edwin Encarnacion. Encarnacion was the third batter that Ubaldo Jimenez faced after he came into the game with one out in the eleventh. He allowed both baserunners to reach on sin...
Todd Gurley Has Nowhere To Run
Remember how excited you were for a full season of Todd Gurley, one of the few running backs in the NFL with the necessary combination of youth, ability, and a team with no pesky passing game, to emerge as one of the NFL’s last true feature backs? Well, the goddamn Rams don’t want you to have nice t...
Consider Purchasing Pet Health Insurance For Your Very Good Pets
These have been a shitty couple of years on the pet front. Last fall, Millie, my beautiful, miraculous boxer, started panting all the time. She was still a radiating core of joy and energy, but her panting was making it hard for her to get comfortable and her energy was slowly but noticeably waning....
Todd Gurley Is Looking To Spare Himself Some Punishment
I am robustly excited for Todd Gurley’s first full season, because he is a joy to watch. But while sports fandom can be a selfish thing—especially in football, where we’re used to seeing our favorite players’ brains turn to applesauce and ACLs slingshot into the upper deck—I want the best for both m...
