Peak Jackie Chan: The Intoxicating Joys Of <em>The Legend Of Drunken Master</em>
Netflix Instant doesn't have to feel like a depleted Blockbuster in 1990, where you spend half an hour browsing hopeless straight-to-video thrillers before saying "fuck it" and loading up another Archer. Streaming services can be an absolute treasure trove, particularly if you like action movies, an...

Are These The Best Home-Brewed Beers In America?

Goldschmidt Bashes Homer; Man With Kid Catches It; John McCain Excited
There are a few noteworthy happenings in this clip of one of Paul Goldschmidt's home runs from last night. By itself, the dinger is quite impressive, but excellent camera timing makes the sequence better....
Guy Dressed As Superman Breaks Up Pathetic Fight At Cardinals Game
Two sad, possibly drunk guys just sort of lean on each other in the way that sad, possibly drunk guys tend to do when they start a fight that they don't necessarily want to finish, and the world cries out for a hero to stop this madness. In comes Superman, who defuses the situation, and pauses in fr...
The 12 Commandments Of Bar Etiquette
You know how New Yorkers are legally mandated to issue no fewer than five annual social-media reminders that tourists walk too slowly? The Boston version is that we're required to bitch about how loud and drunk all the college students are....

Chris McDougall: I Never Meant To Start A Barefoot-Running Fad

Idiot Father Shakes His Baby Around While Diving To Catch A Home Run
In fairness to this dad, on the list of things that you should not do while holding a baby, "diving into a scrum on the stadium floor for a home run ball" trails other modern parenting pratfalls, like using a chainsaw, or being thrown into the sun. Still, this seems ill-considered. ...
The Frat Boys Who Moved The Colts Out Of Baltimore
Thirty years ago this spring, Bob Irsay, the prototypical bad sports owner and an obstreperous public drunk, moved his Baltimore Colts to Indianapolis.

Make A Mint Julep And Capture The Fake Majesty Of The Horse Track
Remember how Regressing was the best part of Deadspin until they pulled this unconscionable bullshit and we had to fire-murder poor Reuben and Kyle, who were probably decent dudes, but at a certain point, enough's enough? Well, we here at the Concourse are aiming to atone for some of our dead brothe...
Counterpoint: I Will Run Wherever The Hell I Want To Run
Before dawn some five or six years ago, I shut the door to my Orlando-area non-Disney golf resort vacation destination villa, and set off on my usual Sunday long run. Having no intention of using the resort's three-quarter mile "fitness trail", I headed for the front gate, and began a search for a ...
Mexican Beers, Ranked
Cinco de Mayo used to be a nice little half-holiday on which Americans drank Corona and tequila after work in a vague but earnest tribute to Mexico. What exactly did Cinco de Mayo signify? Maybe it commemorated the beginning of a just reign or the end of a cruel one; perhaps it had something to do w...
