Meet The Cowboys' New $2 Million Luxury Bus, Named "The Elegant Lady"
Jerry Jones's wet dream of crystal and chrome has hit the road. "The Elegant Lady," the Dallas Cowboys' new bus, made a brief appearance at the Super Bowl, but it's officially being unveiled ahead of the NFL combine. Forty-five feet long, 8'6" wide, and 13 feet tall, the coach will shuttle Cowboys b...

Is Chipper Jones Getting Fat Again?
Chipper Jones joined the Braves on Saturday to spend a few days hanging around the team's spring training complex as a "special instructor," which is baseball-speak for "old guy who stands around leaning on a fungo bat and spitting seeds." So how's retirement been going for Chipper? Aside from the o...

Will Eating Decades-Old Athlete Candy Bars Kill You? A Taste Test
"You're not going to eat it, are you?" the eBay seller asked, after we had completed our purchase. "People have been asking me if they can eat it, and that's probably not a good idea."...

Fred Hoiberg Tells Us, "I Have Never Smoked Pot In My Life"
Since Jay Williams's interview—in which he accuses teammates on the 2002-03 Chicago Bulls of smoking pot before games—ran in The New York Times, we have been covering the story with all the attention it deserves. Because who else will, you know?...

Rob Gronkowski, Porn Star?
The Summer of Gronk, Part II, might be less than three weeks old, but it's already so far along that Gronkshaming has become a thing. So where can it go from here? Why not porn! A porn company has offered Gronk $3.75 million—the equivalent of his 2014 salary—to record a scene with his friend BiBi Jo...

Iowa State Athletic Director Kicked Out Of High School Basketball Game For Arguing With Referee
Jamie Pollard is like most lunatic parents in many respects. For instance, when he has the chance on a random Tuesday night in February, Pollard likes to watch his son play basketball for Gilbert High School. And sometimes he is so into the game, he gets himself ejected for arguing with the referee...

The Steven Soderbergh Experience: Brilliant, Modest, Fiercely Intelligent, Ultimately Disappointing
"I was watching one of those iconoclast shows on the Sundance Channel. Jamie Oliver said Paul Smith had told him something he hadn't understood until very recently: 'I'd rather be No. 2 forever than No. 1 for a while.' Just make stuff and don't agonize over it. Stop worrying about being No. 1. I s...

Jacoby Jones Earns Marylanders Over $600,000 In Free Furniture
That one play saved hundreds of thousands of dollars for furniture shoppers and, more importantly, it gave Gardiner's Furniture a truckload of free advertising. The deal went like this: If you shopped in the store between January 31 and 3 p.m. Super Bowl Sunday and the Ravens took either the openi...

This Is More Or Less What Happened To The Ravens In The Third Quarter
Here's how the Ravens played in the third: A long Jacoby Jones touchdown return—bad news for the 49ers, obviously—a 34-minute power outage, punt, punt, Haloti Ngata knee sprain (which has him doubtful to return), fumble, Jacoby Jones getting enormously jacked up by Delanie Walker on a kick return. ...

Jacoby Jones Just Returned The Opening Kickoff Of The Second Half 109 Yards For A Touchdown
According to CBS that is an NFL record. The Ravens won the opening coin toss and deferred to the second half. The decision allowed Jones to break an NFL record and toss his hat in the ring for Super Bowl MVP alongside Joe Flacco. NFL record and two pretty exciting touchdowns? We like his chances. ...

The Ravens Dig The Deep Ball: Joe Flacco And Jacoby Jones Connect For The Play Of The Super Bowl (So Far)
We've previously mentioned Baltimore's affinity for the deep ball and here is Joe Flacco, once again, successfully going long. He may have underthrown it just a bit (give him a break though, he did throw it 50 yards downfield), but Jacoby Jones helped his quarterback out. He caught the ball as h...

Lolo Jones Won A Gold Medal (In World Championship Bobsled)
Lolo Jones still has yet to win a gold medal in the Olympics, but today, she added a new and extra random addition to her small pile of world championship medals—she now has two golds for 60m hurdles, and one for the combined bobsled-skeleton team event at the Swiss winter world championships. She w...

Tim Tebow's Press Conference Sucked, or Why the Celebrity Headphone Trend Is Idiotic
At the end of December, a PR agency representing Tim Tebow's new signature line of Soul brand headphones—model number SL300, $299.95 retail—emailed us to invite us to a CES event at which Tebow himself would be showcasing his headphones and "speaking with the media." The event was total bullshit. J...

It Looks Like Cardale "Ain't Come To Play SCHOOL!" Jones Has Changed His Ways
Thanks to the Daily Dot, we've stumbled upon what appears to be Cardale Jones's new Twitter account. You may recall that Jones, the third-string quarterback for the Ohio State Buckeyes, deleted his original account after sending out this hilarious tweet. Jones's new account, however, is full of upl...

An Inside Look At The Impending Flying Robot Apocalypse (And How To Put A Stop To It)
The Consumer Electronics Show, held in Vegas every year during the second-ish week in January, is an odd duck. Everyone is desperate to talk to you and show you things and shake your hand and trample you on the show floor and so forth. But (and this is my third time being here) there's often littl...

Steelers Safety Ryan Clark Made A Good Point About Hypocritical Steelers Fans
If there's one thing we learned while sifting through the assorted vitriolic, typo-ridden responses to the Why Your Team Sucks series, it's that many fans have no perspective when it comes to their favorite teams and players. Morals go out the window ("He basically paid his debt to society!"), logic...

2012 Deadspin Hall Of Fame Nominee: Fat Chipper Jones
He showed up for spring training looking like a fat ass. His fatness touched off a debate about whether he was fat. Eventually, Fat Chipper himself chewed the fat, and soon there was no denying what everyone else could see. He tried masking it. He found himself a Playboy-model girlfriend. He even ar...

On Further Review, Roger Goodell Fucked Up This NFL Season From End To End
Cowboys-Redskins was the biggest matchup of the year, a win-or-go-home game for two division rivals. It turned out to be the most-watched regular-season sporting event in 15 years. But one familiar face was missing from the FedEx Field suites: commissioner Roger Goodell, who found something else to ...

This Guy Died In 2012: Lonesome George, The Last Of His Kind
What's your greatest fear? There's a very good chance you said "dying alone," because that's pretty much the worst way to end a life. No legacy, no testament to the things you've accomplished, no hope that anything you've done will outlive you. Very few of us die as alone as Lonesome George, who pas...
