Jose Bautista And The Phillie Phanatic Have A Fitness Contest

The Grizzlies Are Lance Stephenson's Right Now, And That's Entertaining As Hell
You know how Marc Gasol broke his foot, Mario Chalmers tore his Achilles, Zach Randolph’s knee ain’t happy, Brandan Wright has a messed up MCL, and all the Grizzlies had was Mike Conley and some randos? Well:...
What's Wrong With The Oklahoma City Thunder?
After the Thunder collapsed and let the Minnesota Timberwolves come back and beat them in Oklahoma City last night, Kevin Durant took the blame and wore the hairshirt. Even if it’s just KD self-flagellating, this quote sums up the sadness of OKC’s last month pretty succinctly:...
Diego Costa Sent Off After Getting Intimate With Gareth Barry (And Maybe Biting Him)
Everton downed Chelsea 2-0 in FA Cup action today, though the real excitement came in the final minutes as Diego Costa earned a red card for intruding on Gareth Barry’s personal space; Barry himself would be sent off minutes later, but let’s not miss the glory of Costa either kissing Barry, trying t...

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Martavis Bryant missed the first four games of last season for violating the NFL’s substance abuse policy, and now he might miss the entire 2016-2017 season for a similar violation, per a report from Dejan Kovacevic which was later corroborated by others....

Illinois basketball’s bad season ended yesterday with a blowout loss to Purdue in the Big Ten tournament. Shortly after the team returned to Champaign from Indianapolis, junior point guard Jaylon Tate was arrested for domestic battery and to the Champaign County Jail. Per court records, he was booke...
This Paulo Dybala Curler Is Audacious As Hell
Look, this happened yesterday, but you deserve to see it now anyway. Juventus beat Sassuolo 1-0 in some Serie A action, and the lone goal was a truly magnificent little homing missile from Argentine forward Paulo Dybala....
Love Is Real: Donald Sterling And His Wife Are Calling Off Their Divorce
In August, lawsuit-loving former Clippers owner Donald Sterling filed for divorce from his wife Shelly, who he called a “pig” during court proceedings when they were fighting over who would retain control of the Clippers (as it turns out, the eventual answer to that one was neither, thank God)....
Donald Trump Praises Missouri's Football Teams In Bizarre Speech
In the past twelve months, the state of Missouri has watched its NFL team depart for Los Angeles while its lone Division I-FBS team nearly went on strike due to racism on campus; they went 5-7 on the season. The two FCS programs? Missouri State’s football team went 1-10, while SEMO went 4-7. Donald ...

Thank you for your continued support of Deadspin. The sun is shining....
The Beat Generation Starter Kit
The Beats were the Nirvana of their generation: individualistic, drug-addled, and, unfortunately, sometimes held responsible for the Nickelbacks created in their wake. Beats begat beatniks, those beret-wearing, saxophone-loving hipsters who morphed into gross ’60s hippies. And now this loose collect...
Draymond Green Interview Derailed By Reporter In Michigan Shirt
Warriors forward Draymond Green spent four years at Michigan State, and ended his career there as only the third player in Spartans history to record 1,000 points and 1,000 rebounds. He’s very loyal to his alma mater, as demonstrated by the reaction he had to a reporter wearing a Michigan shirt:...
Sounds Like Some Bad Blood Between The Broncos And Brock Osweiler
Brock Osweiler feels he’s more likely to be successful with the Texans than he would have been with the Broncos. The Broncos believe they’re better off without Osweiler at QB for the price he was asking. I’m sure we all have strong feelings on who is correct (it could be both! It could be neither.),...

The Sacramento Kings suspended DeMarcus Cousins for one game on Thursday, the day after he screamed at coach George Karl in a loss to the Cavaliers:...

Thank you for your continued support of Deadspin. It’s real nice on the East Coast right now, and we’re going to just go sit outside enjoying it....
Old Man Swears At Cloud
Fortuitous timing, this, coming just hours after Bryce Harper said baseball needs to allow its players to show they’re having fun, and just about the entire world agreed with him, and it started to feel like this whole pro-celebration movement has become so obviously dominant that it’s all in opposi...
Let's Make Some Fuckin' Pasta
A few weeks ago, I made some fuckin’ pasta. The pasta I made is right there in the image above. Isn’t it gorgeous?...
Warriors Games Should Be On Earlier, Dammit
As you’re probably aware, the Golden State Warriors are currently 57-6 and have a legit shot at beating the NBA’s single-season win record. They’re the sort of once-in-a-lifetime superteam that has captured the imaginations of diehards and casual fans alike, and I would very much like to watch them ...
