Are You A <em>Boston Globe</em> Columnist Starved For Attention? Try Some Boilerplate Blogger Trolling
If you're writing a column with an inarguable premise—e.g. fans shouldn't cheer after injuries—you might find yourself wanting for a little more reaction. How about an unprovoked shot at bloggers?...

TBS's Slogan Is "Very Funny," Which Is Fitting Because Its Baseball Analysis Is A Joke
The MLB playoff coverage on TBS has suffered the arrows of critics for years, and it hasn't really shown any signs of improvement. How the same company that can produce the brilliant Inside the NBA drops the ball so terribly with MLB coverage is a mystery, but there's no questioning the wide range ...

Witness The Chaos That Tony Romo Wrought After Possibly Hanging Up On Some Reporters [UPDATE: WE HAVE HOT AUDIO]
The 2-2 Cowboys are playing the Ravens Sunday, and today Tony Romo had a standard conference call with Baltimore reporters. After some questions about Romo's consistency and such, his phone was somehow disconnected. Did Romo intentionally hang up on the media? Jeff Zrebiec and Aaron Wilson of the B...

Cincinnati cops charged Rives Grogan with trespassing and resisting arrest after his stunt last night in which he ran onto the field at Great American Ball Park with a Mitt Romney sign that read "ABORTION IS SIN" on the other side. It turns out this is only one of many such stunts for Grogan, who ...

What The Best Pitcher In Baseball Taught Me About Prep School, Socrates, And The Art Of Not Selling Out
At my old high school, Montgomery Bell Academy in Nashville, there is a large multi-purpose hall with high ceilings. The hall features large hanging glass panels that extend nearly from the ceiling to the floor, engraved with famous quotations and the image of the speaker. I remember two of the pane...

Tiger Woods Apologized For Singlehandedly Losing The Ryder Cup
Despite the hyperbolic headline, Woods has come in for surprisingly little heat after a Ryder Cup the U.S. lost by one point, in which he went 0-3-1. Maybe it's because the outcome was decided before Tiger stepped up to the 18th tee on Sunday, maybe it's because there's plenty of blame to go around,...

Auburn Wrests Title Of "Team Everyone Wants To Play" From Arkansas
Arkansas beat Auburn today, which in itself wouldn't be so strange except that as recently as this morning it was reasonable to ask whether Arkansas would ever win another game, ever, ever. The Hogs were a preseason top-10 team that lost f̶i̶v̶e̶ four games—in September. If someone was to cushion th...

Deadspin Up All Night: Crash Through Break The Glass
Thank you for your continued support of Deadspin. There's still stuff going on all over—I literally couldn't keep track of the open threads, and the Division Series one disappeared, so it'd be great if people went and talked in there. Or wherever, no big deal. Stick around if you feel so inclined,...

Arkansas Coach John L. Smith Realizes He's Actually $40 Million In Debt, Not $25 Million
John L. Smith is even more broke than he initially thought. He first filed for bankruptcy on Sept. 6. In a subsequent filing, on Sept. 19, he reported $25.7 million in liabilities and $1.2 million in assets. You don't have to be a CPA to know that this is a bad cash flow position. But wait, it gets ...

An Exhaustive Audio History Of The "Yankees Suck" Chant
This week's excerpt from Slate's Hang Up and Listen podcast is super-timely. It's got the Red Sox, the Yankees, and people who say the Yankees suck. Can't ever get enough of them. Massholes, like Sully. Gotta love Sully. And there's politics! There's some kind of political affair tonight, isn't ther...
