DeSean Jackson's End Zone Brainfartery Will Be Overlooked — For Now
Yes, last night was disappointing in many ways, but it has not completely killed my faith: I still like my team. If anything, last night's Eagles/Cowboys game proved that Donovan McNabb is fully-recovered and that DeSean Jackson, Philadelphia's own Barack Obama, is still on pace to be the greatest E...

Deadspin HOF Nominee: Sean Salisbury
I hadn't planned on Sean Salisbury making the Final 10 cut of nominees until ...well, until AJ's wild interview with the man. It's just an amazing glimpse inside a man's mind, in a way that made me (and, I suspect, a lot of you) extremely uncomfortable. Salisbury was a nominee last year, notching 6...

College Football Previews: #15 Virginia Tech
We're rolling through the top 25 of the coaches' poll. Today's first preview is the Virginia Tech Hokies. Brought to you by deadspin commenter, FrankBeamersGoiter.

Sean Salisbury Isn't Angry Anymore
And here we have the second portion of our interview. It's more of the same, but Sean does calm down (somewhat) to emphasize a few things. Even though he sounds enraged when he's telling you "he's not angry." He's wholeheartedly trying not to be, but I get the sense that he could sound enraged when ...

Sean Salisbury Has A Lot On His Mind
Sean Salisbury is at a transitional period in his life and talks rapidly — almost haphazardly — about anything that pops into his head. He's overtly defensive at times, and in our almost 2-hour phone conversation yesterday, he went through a deliberate unloading process. It was therapeutic, unhinge...

Kenny Chesney Practices with Saints; Undresses Injured Player; Hangs with Shockey
Country singer Kenny Chesney, who sometimes seems to make a living as a singer so he can participate in football events, practiced with the New Orleans Saints yesterday. Chesney's appearance was not announced to the crowd watching practice, but Chesney ran routes, fielded punts, and did his best to...

Sean Salisbury Has Finally Conquered His Fear Of The Internet
There have been numerous stories about what Sean Salisbury's been up to since his unfortunate dismissal from ESPN last winter: He's been sulking quietly at home; he's been popping up at random football camps; he's just been hanging out doing his Salisbury-thing, embracing his new found freedom to c...

Sean Avery Will Now Have To J.O. To Dallas Ladies
Well, isn't that fitting. Fashion-friendly hockey menace Sean Avery gets savaged by Gawker due to his "I'm Going Home To Jerk Off To You Now" comment at a Paris fashion show and then signs a 4-year deal with the Dallas Stars. The Stars are excited about his hockey skills more than his masturbatio...

Sean Avery's Internship At Vogue Begins
When we first heard that Rangers left wing Sean Avery was going to intern for Vogue magazine this summer, once the Rangers were finally eliminated from the playoffs, we assumed it was a joke, or some stunt meant to get Avery a seat next to that weird lady with the crazy glasses at Roger Federer matc...

Sean Avery Might Be The NHL's Most Compelling Idiot
Say what you will about the Rangers' Sean Avery, but in an NHL devoid of any discernible personalities, he's definitely becoming the most entertaining to non-puckheads. Courtesy of FanIq comes these two Avery gems, one before and one after his whole bizarre stick waving incident with Martin Brodeur...

Avery And Spitzer Connected By More Than New York
Rangers left wing Sean Avery, former beau of Elisha Cuthbert and Rachel Hunter, has popped up in the black book of Manhattan madam-to-the-stars Kristin Davis (not to be confused with actress in unwatchable Manhattan fantasy show for harpies Kristin Davis). Unlike fellow Davis client former Gov. Eli...

Four Months On, No Closure In Sean Taylor Case
Frustrations are coming to a boil in the investigation of the Nov. 27 slaying of Sean Taylor, which in its immediate wake seemed, and was presented by authorities, to be an open-and-shut case. Now, as Fanhouse notes, a judge has threatened jail time to one of the case's lead detectives if the report...

ESPN And Salisbury: The Unkindest Cut Of All

Sean Salisbury, Moving On Down That Road, Man
To the casual ESPN viewer, it must have seemed confusing that Sean Salisbury, the former Vikings quarterback who once actually sported a fade, would be one of the most prominent NFL analysts on the world's biggest sports media enterprise. Sean Salisbury? That guy? Really?...

Today the NFL season officially ends with the annual Pro Bowl game in Honolulu. Its a day filled with Gonzo Friday-esque wardrobes, leis, coconuts, and, in this year's, hearfelt Sean Taylor tributes.
