Those Are Some Stunning VGA Graphics
Holy polygonal Christ. After that video, it immediately makes me want to quit Deadspin this weekend, fly back home to where my PC laptop lies, buy an external floppy drive, find my Stunts disk, and make a bunch of tracks and race Skid Vicious on every one of them. It seems like a lot of work, but it...

Manning Vs. Brady, Round II
OK, I might see Tom Brady wearing Ermenegildo Zegna clothing, but Eli Manning, I don't think so. Isn't he more of a Miller's Outpost kind of guy? Anyway, they were both on hand for the big Zegna store opening in Manhattan on Thursday, or so we are led to believe. Mr. Manning here actually looks very...
