The Seahawks still seem haunted by that one decision six years ago
Everyone in Seattle seems a little too intent on saying what the situation isn’t. Russell Wilson isn’t asking for a trade. The Seahawks aren’t looking to trade him. Everything is fine, don’t mind us. But if…...

'Frustrated' Russell Wilson and Seahawks may be headed toward inevitable split
Deshaun Watson has some competition for the most dramatic quarterback situation this offseason – it looks like things are a little gloomy in the Pacific Northwest. Tensions are rising between Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks, and as Deadspin’s resident Seahawks fan, it’s my job to try and exp...
From no Marshawn to the Falcon Flop, here are the worst play calls in Super Bowl history
The Super Bowl is the biggest annual social sporting event of the calendar year. With so much on the line, everything that these players and coaches do will be scrutinized even more closely than usual. Many people rise to the occasion, others fold like a lawn chair at a family reunion....
It's been a while since we've talked about Buffalo in the context of a Super Bowl run
In one week, the Bills will be in the AFC title game for the first time in 27 years, when, perhaps in a bit of foreshadowing — depending on the outcome of Sunday’s divisional playoff — Buffalo hammered Kansas City, 30-13, to advance to Super Bowl XXVIII....
After building the Seahawks, GM John Schneider is now destroying the Seahawks
Seahawks’ John Schneider is a mediocre General Manager riding on the coattails of two Hall of Fame draft classes nearly a decade ago, and Head Coach Pete Carroll still thinks he has his 2014 roster. In a league that is seemingly always saying “what have you done for me lately,” why don’t Schneider a...

The NBA will definitely expansion its way out of this pandemic hole
It was the most interesting note out of Adam Silver’s preseason launch meeting with the press. While he addressed what it would take for the season to be halted again, as well as some other issues, he also let it out that the NBA was dusting off the box marked “expansion plans” for another look....
Wildcats lose by 63, Gators squander tight game by throwing shoe
Putting up the first winless season in school history, even in a pandemic year, and capping it with a 70-7 loss to your top rival is a surefire way to lose your job as a college football coach, and that’s exactly what happened to Kevin Sumlin, who got fired by Arizona on Saturday, following the Wild...
If nothing else, the MLS Cup final is full circle for Crew fans
It’s dishonest to say that any sporting event can have a feel-good event right now. While sports can be a healthy distraction or unifying force for a community, these days they basically act as a perfect sketch of just about everything wrong with the country’s handling and response to the pandemic, ...
Giants still bad but not trash, Sean Payton treats DCs like children, and Goff plays like an NFL quarterback

Kyler Murray & scrappy Cards follow the script, but lose the plot late vs. Seahawks
If you love narratives, and any producer of a sports broadcast most certainly does, Thursday night’s NFL game had the most easy-to-reach one imaginable. Fox got two teams at the top of their division standings, one the old stand-by in Seattle, the other the up-and-coming young team with the momentum...

Momentum is tomorrow’s starting pitcher and other drugs
It’s one of the oldest cliches in baseball, which means it’s one of the oldest cliches in American society. But it happens to be true. Whatever happens in the previous game doesn’t really carry over. We just assign that after the fact when it fits to try and make sense of a game that rarely doesn’t ...
Week 5 takeaways: Another coach is gone, the Niners got smacked like they ate an edible, and the Boys’ D is as bad as Trump’s COVID team
