How Do You Spell "P-L-E-A-S-E L-O-R-D G-O-D S-T-O-P T-A-L-K-I-N-G?"
Sometimes we wonder if we are too hard on ESPN. Sure, collectively, they seem to have sucked the very life out of sports, packaging schtick and corporate pablum into a stew of impossible-to-digest soulless muck. (And, unlike the rest of us, they mix metaphors!) But they're still just individuals, ou...
May Stuart Scott Leave Your Mother The Hell Alone This Evening
Mother's Day will soon have come and gone, but there's still time to relive one of the all-time greatest mother moments in sports history. Carmelo Anthony's mother, overcome with emotion, beaming with pride as her son lives his proudest moment ... and Stuart Scott antagonizing her with a microphone....
Yet Another Way ESPN Makes You Gassy
You thought your life was caused enough pain every time you went to the gas station these days? (We still don't have a car, but it makes our heart ache every time we even look at a gas station anymore.) Well, it's about to grow far, far worse: Now, at certain gas stops, you're gonna have to hear rum...
Stuart Scott Truly Loves His Hos
While a guest on "Mike and Mike In The Morning" — one's gay! one's fat! hijinks ensue! — Stuart Scott, as reported by The Fanhouse, wanted to make it clear that when calls you a ho, he's doing it out of love....
If The NBA All-Stars All Have Pink Eye This Week, You'll Know Why
In a roundup of odd and confusing photos from the NBA All-Star Game last weekend, Leave The Man Alone found this unfortunately closeup photo of Stuart Scott....
Stuart Scott Is Ready To Kick Some Mustache Ass
The Big Lead has a fun wrapup of media party-related stories from the Super Bowl — which was Sunday, by the way — and we enjoyed this one considerably....
Daulerio at SBXL: Alex Brown Goes Back to Bourbon Street; Stuart Scott Attempts To Jack Himself Up
Deadspin "correspondent" AJ Daulerio is filing dispatches from the Super Bowl all week. Last night, he hit the motherlode. This is the final of his three tales from a crazed night....
Deadspin Field Trip: Our Battle With Slash And Bad Moon
Last year around this time, thanks to a promotion for that "Pros Vs. Joes" show on Spike that no one we know watches, we strapped on a helmet and batted against John Rocker. That trip worked out so well for everybody that they asked us if we'd be interested in heading to Grand Central Station in New...
Hey, Everyone! How Ya Hoofing?
On the day that Barbaro gets another good report card from his vet, we check in with the Barbaro Message Board to find that, well, things are getting just plain weird. And when you're talking about the Barbaro Message Board, that's saying something....
People Actually Lamer Than Stuart Scott Rip On Stuart Scott
The toolsheds pictured here are members of a "band" called Something To Ponder, and they, uh, do some sort of funk rap folk music, the type of thing that we listen to and ponder, oh, the end of civilization. But that could just be us....
Stuart Scott, Out Of The Pool
So here's the strangest thing we've seen in a while (or at least since yesterday): Someone on eBay is selling an 11-inch-by-14-inch framed matted photo of Stuart Scott pouting on a tricycle....
One Depressing Sports Weekend
We don't mean to overstate this, but Saturday was a disappointing an evening for college basketball as we can remember. It's not just that George Mason lost to Florida, or even that they lost so convincingly. Their legend had been secured simply by making it to Indianapolis at all; any mid-major w...
Dan Le Batard Horrifies You The Most
Congratulations to Dan Le Batard, who you say has the most terrifying ESPN: The Magazine mugshot. It was a tight race, with Le Batard — who was joking about the mugshots and this poll on his radio show yesterday, quoting from several of our great commenters — edging out Stuart Scott (who actually ...
Poll: Scariest ESPN Mag Mugshots
Yesterday, we tried to figure out what was going on with Bill Simmons' ridiculous mugshot in ESPN: The Magazine. Well, now we've got copies of all four main mugshots in the magazine, and they're inexplicable. And horrifying. Take a look at them below, and let us know which one makes you want to c...
They're Not Booing. They're Yelling "Stuuuu!"
We know this is our job and everything, but we'll admit, we, uh, weren't watching Stuart Scott's little New Years Eve "spectacular" in Times Square over the weekend. Sorry. We've let you down....
Boo-Yah In The New Year
If you're sitting alone on New Years Eve and just aren't getting full off EV1.net Houston Bowl between Texas Christian and Iowa State, you're in luck: ESPN2 will be hosting a live New Years Eve night show from the Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square, from 11 p.m. to 1 a.m. It will be hosted, inevitably...
Holiday Wishes From ESPN
The fine blue-collar folks at Joe Sports Fan have compiled their (fictional, sadly) list of holiday cards they received from various ESPN personalities. It's amusing enough for a Thursday morning....
A Day In The Life Of The "New" Michael Irvin
Well, it's the day after Michael Irvin's endless string of mea culpas following his arrest on Friday, and if Irvin's appearances had anything in common, it was their high proportion of "mea" to "culpa." Let's look back at Irvin's trip through the ESPN empire:...
Yes, We Saw It.
For those of you who keep asking ... yes. Yes, we saw Stuart Scott's "slam poetry" on SportsCenter this morning. There were Bengals highlights. And then there was a change in shadow, and then the slam came, and then in didn't stop, and then it kept going, and then it kept going, and it was astound...
Stephen A. Smith, Today's Murrow
Yesterday we looked at Stephen A. Smith, expert columnist and sports reporter. We then came across a story in the Winston State-Salem News Argus, the student newspaper of the college Stephen A. attended....
