Also, saying Fox Sports is unoriginal for using Silver Scrapes?

You do know Silver Scrapes is just the hook from Taylor Swift's, "I Knew You Were Trouble." done over and over again, right?

So is Deadspin publishing this because it's an important story, or are they just doing it to hate on News Corp. because of FNC?

Because after all these years of bashing on ESPN, you'd think they'd welcome any competition.

Even a blind Squirrel finds a nut once in a while.

Don Garber: Hell bent on repeating the mistakes of the NASL by changing it's salary cap rules to allow teams to import foreign stars on their last legs.

“Steroids didn't cause home runs. Testing didn't stop home runs. When a bat hits a ball, there is as much power in the contact as there was in 2007 and in 1995. That's the truth."

It's only murder in the eyes of PETA wackos and eco-terrorists.
