"I May Have A Small Dick, But I Have Big Fucking Balls": The Unsentimental Education Of A Harvard Football Player
The story below, excerpted from That Book about Harvard: Surviving the World's Most Famous University, One Embarrassment at a Time, is my memory of events that actually happened. I've changed Coach Mac's name for reasons that will soon become obvious....
Guy Sues Cris Carter Because Cris Carter Allegedly Took A Bunch Of His Money And Didn't Record The Rap Song He Was Promised
The market's not what it once was. Back in the 90s and 2000s, we were promised pain-free growth. Stick that money in Sun, son, and watch it inflate. Now the times are hard. One must turn to unconventional investment opportunities. "Emerging markets," as they say in the business. Markets such as rap ...

See? Aw. And congrats to this youngster. With his efforts, he just passed the university's entrance exam....
ESPN's Draft Coverage Buzzword: "Rim"
ESPN's NBA draft coverage has become so predictable it's inspired its own drinking game (one Jay Bilas even referenced on the broadcast). Every year features a buzzword like "length," "scorer," or the always-controversial "character."...
This Video Of An Old Crimson Tide Fan Lip-Synching "Call Me Maybe" Is The Most Discomforting Thing Ever
From tipster William, with whom we will be forever angry with due to what he has exposed us to, comes the above video. The video depicts an elderly gentleman lip-synching to "Call Me Maybe," which is A Thing on YouTube these days, but this version goes beyond "Oh man this song is so stupid and ann...

Brian Downing, Krystal Restaurant Named In "Alabama Teabagger" Lawsuit
Remember Brian Downing? He's the gentleman alleged to have been caught on video performing a certain sexual act on a passed-out LSU fan in the hours after the BCS Championship game this year in New Orleans. (See our full coverage here.) That act, which the New Orleans Times-Picayune describes as "p...
The Harvard Baseball Lip-Synch Video That's Sweeping The Nation
Suffice it to say, I had no clue who Carly Rae Jepsen was when this video started circulating a couple of days ago. Evidently, the song is called "Call Me Maybe," which I also had to look up because I hadn't ever heard it before. Our old pal Emma Carmichael called it "the new perfect pop song" bac...
Trent Richardson Smash!
Pro days are serious business. With fewer players taking part in the Combine, whether due to injury or the founded fear that performing can only hurt their draft stock, the highly controlled pro day has become the showcase of choice for the top prospects. This is bad news for the NFL Network, and ...
Watch Creighton's Grant Gibbs Inbound The Ball Off An Alabama Guy's Back And Score
These are always great. Grant Gibbs goes off Nick Jacobs's lumbar for the easy layup, giving us the rare and wonderful highlight/lowlight combo. (Creighton won the game by a point.) Clark Kellogg calls it a "smart schoolyard play," which raises the question: What kind of schoolyard game features i...
Is Harvard Now Behaving Like Any Other College Basketball Juggernaut?
Four years ago, Pete Thamel wrote a story in the New York Times about how new Harvard coach Tommy Amaker had landed a potential recruiting class that experts ranked as one of the top 25 in the nation. How'd Harvard do it? Thamel reported that the school was considering players with lower academic st...
Scrappy College Basketball Team From Just Outside Of Boston Makes It Big
This is the front page of today's Boston Herald. Not the sports cover. The front page. All because Harvard got the spot in the tourney it knew it would get as of Tuesday. All Boston learned yesterday was that the Crimson would be playing Vanderbilt in Albuquerque in the first round, which is actuall...
Internet, Prepare Your Wanking Motions: Harvard Prigs Talk About Team's NCAA Tourney Bid
So I went to Harvard. It was a daily challenge not to slug many of my classmates in the face. There are plenty of good people at Harvard. There are also a great many egotistical children convinced that their prattling is the stuff of genius. Too many politicians in training wheels. Too many cowards ...
Harvard Is Going Dancing Too, Though They Were Studying When They Found Out
There's no video of Harvard celebrating winning the Ivy League (which has no postseason tournament) and thus earning their first ticket to the NCAA Tournament since 1946. That's because it happened last night when Princeton beat Penn, and Harvard players were in the library studying for midterms. ...
'Bama Big Head Guy Jack "The Face" Blankenship Made The New York Media Tour Yesterday
Overnight sensation Jack Blankenship—who now, apparently, is being known as "The Face"—followed up his appearance at Madison Square Garden with a trip to NBC's Today and Late Night With Jimmy Fallon. It won't surprise you that the sum of national media exposure we've added up for Blankenship equal...
Some Of Your Favorite Deadspin Article Subjects Are In Attendance At Tonight's Knicks Game
The Knicks are getting their faces kicked in at MSG right now by the Nets, but there are some special celebrities in attendance, including those bros who sat by the visiting team's bench in Detroit and Jack Blankenship, the Alabama weird-big-face guy. No Jenn Sterger sightings, sadly....
Jeremy Who? The Best Days For Harvard Basketball Were Back In 1946
People say good things about this Harvard College. Notable folks graduate from there. Big minds. Henry Kissinger. Ted Kaczynski. And Jeremy Lin. The Linsanity sweeping New York and the nation right now would seem to suggest that Harvard is not much of a basketball school, and that's a fair read. But...
This Alabama Fan Holds A Giant, Bug-Eyed Cutout Of His Face At Games, And We're Scared
The SEC is a wild place. We don't understand what goes on there, and perhaps we never will. Here is one exhibit, which The Birmingham News captured at the Alabama-Florida basketball game last night. The 14th-ranked Gators won, 61-52. Rightly concerned reader Aaron emailed the photo to us. This young...
