Week In Deadspin: The Many Names Of Jay Mariotti
• The Mets, on the whole, are fairly tame partiers. • Hockey ended. • Mickey Mantle, charmer. • David Hirshey was consistently awesome all week. • Was that really YWML on "TRL? Yipes ... it really was. • Michael Doleac, NBA champion. • You might have noticed this, but we did a lot of World Cup live blogging. We still haven't figured out if "live-blogging" is hyphenated, though. • Michael Strahan is not gay. Jay Mariotti would be so much cooler if he were. • Someday, we're going to have a comment thread with bigger numbers than ESPN Mobile subscribers. • Yeah! Isiah! • USA Soccer rules! • The government should be more careful with its PDFs. • We had pictures of Mark Cuban relaxing, and he — in a most civilized, polite fashion, probably more than we deserved — informed us that, like Biz Markie, she's just a friend.
That'll do it for us. Enjoy all the Round of 16 World Cup action — along with various other more hands-oriented events this weekend — with The Mighty MJD, and remember to grab your July 3 RFK tickets. We'll see you Monday.
