And people say this guy was never IV league material.

“Let me just get in a Trump/MAGA comment on this completely unrelated topic.”

It’s amusing how everyone is humping this guy’s legacy right now. I guarantee it will come out that he did this because he was about to be exposed for some awful thing he did, and everyone will want to distance themselves from any of these loving eulogies.

Or just date someone named “Stacy Smith” who loves windmills. Problem solved!

This reeks of “Hey, billionaire white guy is in the news. I’m going to Google his name and re-blog whatever shitty results I get, word for word...”

You had never heard of this guy until this morning. Can you wait to get your pitchforks out until after you’ve done, you know, some actually journalistic work?

It was kind of a spoiler that it was a baseball and not a softball.

For more analysis, we now go live to a bunch of lawyers with too much free time on their hands: the entire Deadspin commentariat.

They should replace them with Cubic-zirconia-backs and see whether anyone notices.

I’m waiting for a stadium financing scam story from Patrick Wyman.

Keeping your keys in car is a smart move. Nothing kills a party like some bartender confiscating them because youve had like 15 drinks or whatever

In Massachusetts, it is illegal to base hiring decisions on arrests or indictments that did not lead to conviction. It is probably illegal even to ask about and/or collect that information.

Four stories in fewer than 24 hours. At what point does it cease to be journalism and start to be advocacy?

Everyone writing about this can get fucked.

An honest question about how Deadspin has reported this (its an important story, and I’m glad its getting traction):

If it was so easy and simple to find, and all these teams are dumbasses for not knowing about something that happened in 1996....why has it taken you guys so long to report the story??

No one knew about this incident. How would anyone know to randomly look into Texas indictments about a case that was never brought to court? Why weren’t you reporting on this years ago? Oh, I know, because you didn’t know about it either until you knew exactly what to search for and where to search for it.

I have to give you kids credit, you certainly do want to make this a thing.

Many people weren’t aware because he didn’t do anything wrong. I know that hurts your agenda, but posting a new article every 10 minutes isn’t going to change that.

It’s super easy not to enjoy Harden’s lazy, puffy, arms aflailin’ schtick. He’s the only superstar that I think looks less athletic than the average guy playing hoops at Wooden Center.

Man I miss Rom Romberts.

Rosenbloom is just mad that he fell to tenth in the draft.
