Daniel Radcliffe Presented The Deadspin Award For Worst Tweet
The second annual Deadspin Awards would not have been complete without a visit from our only true friend, Daniel Radcliffe. He was once again kind enough to present the award for Worst Tweet:...
Michael Schur Presented The Deadspin Award For Worst Take
The second annual Deadspin Awards were on Tuesday night. Drinks were had, middling jokes were told, and our friends and readers managed not to make a scene (except for this guy). We also had a few celebrity cameos, including television producer Michael Schur, a.k.a. Fire Joe Morgan founder Ken Treme...

Algerian National Team Coach Screams At Reporter, Tells Him To Retire
The Algerian national team played a friendly against the Central African Republic this week. The 3-0 win for Algeria suggests a rather boring affair, but there was plenty of action after the game....

The Minnesota Timberwolves Are Up To Their Same Old Bullshit
The Minnesota Timberwolves are 7-5, and 4-1 at home, and 11th in the NBA in offense, with a pair of wins over the hot-shot Oklahoma City Thunder already on their résumé. That’s good! On the other hand they don’t seem, today, like a team that’s having a very good time, fresh off a loss to the Phoenix...
Boston Sports Radio Chud Apologizes For Idiotic Rant About Roy Halladay's Death
Boston-based Felger and Mazz co-host Michael Felger went for 11 minutes on Wednesday’s show mocking MLB pitcher Roy Halladay’s death and calling him a “moron,” which was a bizarre, stupid angle to take the day after a guy died. On today’s show, Felger issued an apology....
Boston Sports Radio Chud Goes On Long Rant About How Roy Halladay Deserved To Die
On today’s broadcast of Boston sports radio show Felger and Mazz, co-host Michael Felger went on a long and genuinely astonishing rant about the recent death of former MLB pitcher Roy Halladay. Felger’s central point, which he reiterates with his obnoxious braying for about 10 minutes, is that Halla...
Josh Gordon Says He Got Drunk Or High Before Every Game
Josh Gordon has played 35 games in his NFL career, and he has been suspended for 45. That doesn’t include the 12 games he missed last season after checking himself into rehab for drugs and alcohol, his first of two inpatient stints. He hasn’t played in the NFL since December 2014. But if all goes we...
Browns: Don't Worry, Our Trade Fuck-Up Wasn't A Strategic Move, It Was Just A Fuck-Up
It requires a pretty deep trust in the Browns’ incompetence to believe that their attempt to trade with the Bengals for A.J. McCarron was really undone by their own inability to file simple paperwork in a timely manner. Trust in the Cleveland Browns’ incompetence is pretty well-placed trust, sure, b...
ESPN's New Social Media Policy: Don't "Embroil The Company In Unwanted Controversy"
ESPN distributed new social media guidelines to its employees Thursday, which reinforced some existing rules about not breaking news exclusively on social media, respecting colleagues, and—oh wait, here’s a new thing: “Do nothing that would undercut your colleagues’ work or embroil the company in un...
NFL Conditionally Reinstates Josh Gordon
After several lengthy suspensions spanning multiple years, Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon has been conditionally reinstated by the NFL, clearing the way for the former All-Pro to play his first games since December 2014....
Report: The Browns Are Huge Idiots Who Didn't File Paperwork But Also Maybe Sabotaged Their Own Trade
The Bengals almost traded backup QB A.J. McCarron to the Browns Tuesday, but the deal didn’t go through. Adam Schefter reported that Cleveland had missed the 4 p.m. deadline. The Browns still have a dismal QB depth chart, and now they’re also getting roasted by anonymous sources willing to detail pr...
Report: Browns Forget To Complete QB Trade Like A Bunch Of Big Dumbasses
The Browns tried to get in on an unusually busy NFL trade deadline by making a somewhat inexplicable deal with the Bengals for backup QB A.J. McCarron. They weren’t even able to pull that off, according to Adam Schefter:...
L.A. Fox Station Runs Postgame News Promo: "DODGERS WIN!"
Distraught Dodgers fans waiting for their late local news after five-plus hours of emotional whiplash got one, final head turn after L.A. Fox station KTTV ran this promo, which celebrates a Dodgers victory. Whoops! It’s not like y’all aired the game, or anything....
Doug Gottlieb: DeAndre Hopkins Isn't "Smart Enough" To Get "Nuance" Of Bob McNair's "Inmates" Quote
Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins skipped practice today after ESPN published a quote from team owner Bob McNair in which he compared his employees to prison inmates at last week’s NFL meetings. Thankfully, Fox Sports Radio broadcaster Doug Gottlieb was available to bring the white man’s perspect...
Steve Smith Might Really Whoop Michael Irvin's Ass
During Thursday’s NFL Network pregame show, Michael Irvin couldn’t resist taking a shot at Steve Smith’s pants. It seems like a bad idea to joke with the guy who once broke his own teammate’s nose, but it was heartening to see Irvin put his own neck on the line for once....
Tennis Player Chastised By Umpire After He Won Point Without Even Trying
Down 5-1 in the last set to Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and returning serve, hope was more or less lost for Damir Dzumhur in today’s second-round Vienna Open match. He could be forgiven for letting his effort lapse, especially after he’d limped around for much of the second set, and even more so after he’d t...
