The National Guard has plans to spend advertising dollars at Alabama, UConn, Braves, and Bruins games, as well as at the Kansas Speedway. So you have like a 1 in 20 chance of the major pro sports or Division I FBS stadium you’re sitting in planting a service member on behalf of the National Guard.

The report found 14 NFL teams were part of this advertising campaign. That’s half of one league. I don’t see any other teams or any other sports as part of it (through a cursory Google search, feel free to correct me if I’m wrong).

If I go to a Nationals game, and they’re saluting a service member, I’m gonna go ahead…

Not every single team in every major sport does this as part of an advertising campaign. Many times, they are genuinely honoring veterans. Probably best to just be safe and clap for the real life human veteran, whether they’re being used for an advertisement or not. Either way, that man or woman fought for our country.

While this is a whimsical recreation of poop, Fredbird remains a real piece of shit.

And here come the racists Fox News and Drudge Report readers to explain to Deadspin their views on journalism ethics while taking shots at the librul media.

Sure, Cain’s entitled to his opinion. And this blog, Deadspin, with a robust commentary component is entitled to state that his “opinion” is utterly baseless and devoid of all grasp on reality. Hope we could help you with your questions on journalism ethics today.

Much like the way I know that climate change exists, and don’t need a crystal ball to confirm that, I know that Cain is already producing nothing of intrinsic value right now for ESPN.

Albert, I really enjoy reading what you have to say about professional basketball. It reminds me of how refreshing and imaginative I found the writing of the Free Darko guys a decade ago. Please continue writing things like this.

David Eckstein would like you to stop talking about his career like that, thanks.

Do you see anyone else completely ruining a beard style just based on how huge of a dick they are?

Not to mention that they were out of timeouts because Blatt was incapable of drawing up an effective inbounds play in the last two minutes.

Over at FiveThiryEight, they’re saying that this report should be taken more seriously after the Wells Report. The site’s Benjamin Morris wrote:

Erm, you do know that using the term “sting operation” admits guilt, right?

The “joke” is that he will injure her if she doesn’t do as he says. SO LIGHTHEARTED!

Why did you suddenly go quiet? Care to respond?

You should probably read past the headline.

I can’t wait for the inevitable VICE bro-down with the cruel Qatari leadership hard-hitting exposé.
