A little older than that, but no more than 15 I’d say.

I don’t have kids yet, but when I do... I’m pretty sure I don’t want them reading Deadspin. It’s probably a gateway drug to nihilism.

Yep, and my risk of sitting in a random bodily fluid goes down by 95 percent.

You must be new around here. Tim’s not the only writer (or commenter) at Deadspin who hates the Cardinals and/or St. Louis. Here are two other related articles by other writers.
