Where My Team Stands: San Diego Padres
If we've learned anything about Octobers the last few years, it's that the month tests, stretches and hones every aspect of loyalty fandom. Typically, we pretty much just tell our friends that we'll see them sometime in November. It's a stressful time....

Playoffs Pants Party: Twins Vs. A's
The first playoff game — we'll be live-blogging all day games this week, by the way — begins in less than 24 hours, and if you actually live in the Bay Area, your team's first playoff game is starting at 10 a.m. on a Tuesday. Which seems odd....

That Is Exactly What It Looks Like
What you're looking at is a picture of a kangaroo boxing a human being. A terrible human being. I'm afraid it's very real, and it's a part of the 2006 Animal Olympics. They're brought to you from China, a country that apparently believes in animal rights every bit as much as they believe in human ri...

There Is Much To Be Decided
Today's a pretty significant day in baseball, being the last day of the season and all. Quite a few things are still up in the air, particularly in the AL. And I'll be honest with you... I'm probably not going to see a second of it. I am of the belief that Sundays are for football, and that's how ...

Maybe The BALCO Reporters SHOULD Go To Jail?
As we sort through the public reaction to the possibility of "Game Of Shadows" reporters Mark Fainaru-Wada and Lance Williams heading to jail for their refusal to give up their sources, we have found something surprising: The vast majority of people we talk to about this who aren't reporters think t...

Deadspin HOF Nominee: Marcus "New Mexico" Vick
We can't take credit for the beauty that is Ron Mexico, because it came before our time, so we can only have fun with the next best thing: His little brother Marcus, who has the most fun you can possibly have without actually having herpes....

Deadspin HOF Nominee: "Run You Stupid F—-ing Dinosaur! Run!"
It began with a discussion of scoreboard races, one of our favorite little games we played earlier this year. Essentially, we asked readers to send us the wacky scoreboard races of their hometown teams, and you guys absolutely came through. We like to think we have the most definitive reference guid...

Deadspin HOF Nominee: Darren Prince
Way back in the day, we took another one of our Field Trips to see a Dennis Rodman book signing. In retrospect, we're not sure why we decided to cover a Rodman signing; "Dancing With The Stars" must have not been on that night....

Deadspin HOF Nominee: Burritos
We are in a difficult position here, trying to summarize why burritos became such a large part of the Deadspin psyche. You see, we really had absolutely nothing to do with it....
