Introducing The Deadspin Morning Video Wrapup
We're trying something new around these parts to see how it goes over. We've asked the great Brian Powell of Awful Announcing to come up with a morning video wrapup of the night's events. It will usually run earlier in the morning, but we like the idea. This morning: Stephen A. Smith's phone troubl...
Keith Olbermann Is Not Much Of A Pistons Fan
Keith Olbermann seemed genuinely flustered last night when Al Gore took his sweet time taking the stage at Joe Louis Arena to endorse Barack Obama; so much so that he forgot what team Chauncey Billups plays for. Billups was onstage to introduce Gore, and Olbermann had to go to his notes to identify ...
A Note From Your Editor
We started this site on September 8, 2005, with a simple headline: "Welcome to Deadspin. We Come With a Pure Heart and Mirthful Disposition." We think that's still pretty much true; we try to keep our disposition mirthful at all times. But sometimes that's more difficult to do than others; this is...
Noun. 1.) A Generalized Loss Of Feeling In The Testicles 2.) Roger Clemens
With Erin Andrews frolicking around backstage, who could blame eventual grand champion of the spelling world Sameer Mishra to let loose a little Freudian slip? How else is he supposed to sublimate that sexual energy? Rub your finger on your hand any harder and it's playing with yourself....
MLB.tv And Soccer Bars: Sacre Bleu!
We've been taking too many vacations lately, so now that we're back from our long weekend in Paris, we're gonna get back to work and start hammering shit out. We won't bore you with details or endless photos from the trip. We ate a lot, we drank a lot, we saw some dead bodies....
We Give In To Our Internal Surrender Monkey
We're taking a couple more days off at the end of this week — Friday's a half day anyway, and the whole site is taking Memorial Day off — so we're using to do something we've never done before: We're going to Europe. Actually, we're going to France. Yes, yes, we know: Everybody point and laugh....
Tim Duncan: Awesomming From Everywhere (Even Three-Point Range)
The NBA Closer is written by Matt McHale, who's freaking excited about the freaking playoffs. So if you hear about him doing anything else at any time, it wasn't really him. Unless he's talking about beersomnia and bad movies at Basketbawful. Enjoy! Tim Duncan was legen...wait for it...dary. Timm...
Tim Duncan, With Emotion AND 3-Point Range
San Antonio won 117-115 in double overtime to take the 1-0 series lead. Timothy Duncan finished with a cool ranch 40 points. Stay tuned for Game 2, when more rarities surface: Shaquille O'Neal makes a 3-point shot. Bruce Bowen helps up the guy he just knocked down. And Steve Nash guards someone....
Your Definitive Duke-UNC Photo
No matter who wins in any particular North Carolina-Duke game, all one can really ask for is a perfect photo that encapsulates all the boasting the winning team has earned. We'd say this one covers it pretty well....

Vacations Make Us Antsy; Back To Work
After five days and four nights in what is literally the most beautiful place we have ever visited, one would think returning to the stunning glamor of the Abe Stark Sports Center would be a comedown. But, frankly, we're glad to be back, and not just because the time off verified our nagging fear th...
The Editor-In-Chimp Is Here
Much of your human world continues to horrify and confuse me, most of all your bizarre construct of weekdays. The one you call Will has cast me into my Monday bondage by bludgeoning my mate to death with his advanced human weaponry. How ever did you concoct stick with a nail in it? Sadly, I am now i...
Happy Leap Day, Everyone!
So does today actually exist or not? After watching Lost last night, I'm more confused than ever ... and this article is no help. Anyway, on the off chance that today really does exist, I'll be posting a full day's worth of sports outtakes, bloopers and practical jokes. Will is still on vacation, so...
Uncle Joey Is Babysitting Today
Imagine my surprise when I got in this morning and found this note: On vacation. You're doing the site for the next two days. Do not try to contact me. Beer in the fridge. — Will. A sudden chill ran through me, for I knew instantly what the implications were: There was in fact no beer in the fridge....
Book Tour's Over: Time To Hit The Beach
It has been a long month, what, with all the shameless book shilling, and since we just can't work ourselves into a lather over yet another boring development in the Roger Clemens case, it probably means it's time for us to take a little vacation....
Romanian Strip Clubs Disturbingly Full of Male French Tennis Players
Notch a critical victory in the Davis Cup over Romania? A common American response to winning is to while away hours and hours and perhaps your signing bonus in the strip club. Just ask the G-men....
