I’ve been wondering this - why can’t they jut put waiver language on the ticket that absolves WWE and the arena/operating company/etc. that they’re not liable for whatever happens to you if you enter the field of play? They do that for racing events if you try to get on the track, and you never hear of idiots trying…

“Oh look, a former HS player Deadspin commenter who thinks he can (looks at user name) ......oh.

Because the NFL can’t afford to give away balls like that! What do you think they are, a charity?

I know I’m definitely in the minority, even among my friends. The ones who get annoyed with certain ESPN anchors still watch them, they just kind of stick with what they’re used to. For that reason, I don’t really expect Fox Sports Live to threaten SportsCenter any time soon. And from what I’ve seen of Fox Sports’…

Everyone is different. I still only watch ESPN for college football games. SportsCenter came on after the game last night and I was out of the room, but could hear it. It was an annoying couple of minutes before I finally went out of my way to go and change the channel. Over on Fox Sports Live, it was many times…

The Chicago Bears would like to contest your assertion that the Texans have the worst playing surface in the league

I’m not a Republican, but I think it’s absolutely sad that you can call these people (who you’ve never met or spoken to and don’t know anything about their personal lives) such harsh names because you disagree with some of their positions. It’s public shaming 101.

i’m confused. the definition of pathology is the study of diseases of the body. unless he used the word wrong, at what point did he say/imply that Sherman is taking aim at the culture of black communities, as I suggested?

i agree that Sherman is taking aim at Black Lives Matter, but I think he is calling it not so much…

Oh god, you’re going to blame capitalism? I was with you until there. Trust me, before capitalism the poor were much poorer. Ask the people of North Korea, how communism is working out (an admittedly extreme example). There’s no question this is mainly a socioeconomic issue, but don’t make it about capitalism... your…

Let’s be real. If a white athlete had said what Richard Sherman had said, Deadspin would be making any ad hominem attack they can muster. They excuse differing opinions from their own ONLY if it makes them sound racially tolerant.

Why? Because he reproduced their comments in full and with a minimal amount of commentary about the content - with that commentary being more of a contextual summation (‘this argument is often found in a separate context; that argument came without prompting’) - and then ended by saying he’s glad athletes forwent…

It’s almost as if people can have differing opinions on polarizing subjects... And get this... Neither one of them has to be wrong or right! You're really growing up, gawker.

Do you honestly believe this? More sane than reforming and simplifying the tax code? More sane than funding drug rehabilitation in favor of incarceration?

This is so smartly written and contrary to the tenor of this (now insanely liberal sporto-political) blog, it will never exit the gray.

You’re even denser than I thought. I guess I needed a sentence explicitly telling you why taking a stance against racism AND ripping white men all of the time is hypocritical. Sorry for overrating your intelligence. That's on me.

Woah. Common sense.

I mean, probably. You mostly cherry-picked. The vast majority of the candidates last night were not in favor of any of the things you mentioned.

It would be so amazingly awesome if we just dissolved the United States. Liberals would suddenly run out of Other Peoples Money, who would they mooch off of instead?

Challenge: This is the most liberal site I’ve read (yes, even worse than the Huffington Post). If Deadspin releases an article dissing the Democratic ticket, then I will post a video of myself running naked across a tennis court.

Clearly the culture of someone that has never been to Dragoncon. It’s about expressing yourself, not worrying about what the internet thinks about your cosplay.
