Look At This Fucking Shit [UPDATES]
I’m just minding my business watching the biggest sporting event of the day—Peñarol vs. Defensor in the Uruguayan Primera Division, of course—and on comes this ad for a Miami-based company that promises to improve your child’s soccer abilities through DNA sequencing of his or her genome....

What Exactly Is Going On With Colin Kaepernick?
Folks, the NFL never sleeps. Even now, in the dog days of mid-May, as the league’s news cycle yawns and feels its eyelids getting heavy, the continued unemployment of Colin Kaepernick is there to slap everyone awake again. There’s been a lot of this and a lot of that said and written about Kaepernic...

Report: Houston Dismissed MLB Prospect After He Posed With Bong, Fought Teammate
The Houston Chronicle reported on Wednesday that Houston pitcher Seth Romero has been dismissed from the Cougars’ program. The dismissal was triggered by a fight between Romero and a teammate, and seems to have been the final straw for Houston coach Todd Whitting. The dismissal marked the third time...

Deadspin Presents: NFL Draft Jersey Bingo [Update: Entries Are Closed]
Philadelphia is a fantastic location for the NFL Draft for this reason: It’s easy for a lot of NFL fans to reach. It’s a relatively short drive or train ride from New York or Washington, and not too far from multiple other NFL markets. (Come on, Bills fans! It’s like six and a half hours. Come visit...

Homer-Smacking Eric Thames Isn't Worried About Drug Tests Because He Has "A Lot Of Blood And Urine"
Home run hero Eric Thames spent last week abusing Reds pitching and mashing big taters, and he picked right back up where he left off this week, smacking three more cuadrangulares in the past two games. He now has eight home runs in six games against the Reds and 11 on the year....

The Tanking Lakers Made Metta World Peace Shoot A Ton Of Threes But They Still Won Anyway
Despite their best efforts, the Los Angeles Lakers can’t stop winning games. They entered tonight’s game against the Pelicans on a four-game winning streak, and they extended it to five with a 108-96 victory. They absolutely did not want to beat the Pelicans, as the win put them out of reach of the ...

How To Survive A Blood Test, For The Squeamish Wuss-Bag (You)
A flustered, stuttering phlebotomist once pointed out to me that men, left to nature, would never get a glimpse of their own blood except for in instances of trauma, and that this probably explains why men are notoriously squeamish about having their blood drawn. He told me this while I was leaning ...

Jim Harbaugh And Chip Kelly Go To Bat For Colin Kaepernick

Protesting Sells ... But Who's Buying?
Every reporter has a patter for talking to people in a crowd. I start with a nakedly aggressive challenge—usually questioning or condemning their parentage. Alternatively, if they are bigger than I am, I say “gimme a dollar” and see if they comply. It tells me they’re easily cowed....

Soccer Team Stops Playing Mid-Game In Protest Of Penalty Call
Vietnam apparently has some very principled soccer players, even if their beef here—that the ref gave a soft penalty—doesn’t look all that controversial of a decision....

Okay, I'm All In On Derrick Jones Jr. Winning The Dunk Contest
There’s no denying that Suns rookie Derrick Jones Jr. knows how to do some big-ass dunks, but I’ve remained skeptical of the teen’s sleeper candidacy in this year’s dunk contest. In-game dunks and dunk-contest dunks are totally different beasts, and it’s hard to say Jones Jr. really has a shot at de...

Someone Wanted You To See This Sketchy And Feeble Pro-Dolan Protest Outside MSG
Yesterday afternoon, tipster John Rats sent us a link to a Craigslist post seeking “enthusiastic people to take part in a Pro-Knicks rally before this Sunday’s game against the San Antonio Spurs.” Naturally intrigued, we responded to the ad, which promised $50 to anyone who came out to “support the ...

Top-Ranked Chess Grandmaster Throws Game In Protest After Just Five Moves
Hou Yifan is the highest ranked women’s chess player in the world. She became the youngest woman to reach the rank of grandmaster when she was 16, and she already had four World Championships under her belt by age 22.
