Although he didn’t get a lot of run support, Scherzer was 12-6 in early August when Strasburg was 15-1. It’s not really true or fair to say the 14-K game was Strasburg’s career peak to date. Those 15 wins were important. Obviously, he got hurt — again — but between August 2015 and August 2016, I’m not sure there was a…

That’s the only one of the 1453 words I typed that I remember, and I think you’re with me, SD9/11. I stand by it! In fact: Papelbonvoyage!™ 

*Correction: A previous version of this article said Stephen Strasburg had 13 strikeouts in his Nats debut. He had 14.

I’m going to play the city/state-funded stadium contrarian here (to which someone should feel free to cite endless studies in objection which I will never read) and say that DC has played its stadium and funding cards pretty well and to good effect. I believe Abe Pollin paid for the Verizon Center entirely, although…

That was Over The Top.

The Blue Cross Comedy Tour isn’t so funny.

Deadspin is not a place for jokes. It is a place for evisceration.

Don’t think its a coincidence that the Republican nominee is literally made up of Frito-Lay products. Chester Cheetah has already been tabbed to be head of the FDA in a Trump administration.

What is he supposed to do, land on the grass like every other president? I hear the last guy to land his helicopter on the lawn was [whispers] a black. Can’t have that.

They worried that this was big government telling people what to feed their kids.

Guys. Guys? Guys.

I 100% agree with this. Every time I see this written in reference to anything other than a double elimination tournament I roll my eyes.

It’s like that, but twice as eliminatey.

But isn’t that just an elimination game?

Uhhhhh because he recruited, coached, and enabled the likes of Aaron Hernandez, the Pounceys, Leak, and countless other notable shitheads while crowing about how they are the “top 1% of the top 1%” of college players. Tebow is the anomaly of the whole god-awful group, and Meyer skipped town as soon as Jesus Jr. left…

I’m shocked, SHOCKED that yet another Urban Meyer product can’t keep himself from being a shitstain on society.

Sexual assault of a minor involving a Leak. It is R-Kelly all over again.

Also, the argument that Clinton doesn’t have to pick a ‘safe’ white male as VP but Obama did is bullshit - Clinton is having just as many problem because she’s a woman as Obama had for daring to be black, and Clinton faces even more issues because Trump is just insane. Having a non-”socialist/radical liberal” or…

I would argue his Civil Rights record- which he’s spent most of his life working on- is pretty impressive and says a lot about his character but I guess that’s nothing compared to being a blogger

At Wrigley Field that vendors sell canned beer and pour it in a cup for you and put the can back in there box.It’s been that way since as long as I can remember - late 60's?
