There are billiards fans?

I’m standing outside, sometimes in my childhood backyard, and sometimes completely random, like on an imaginary dock overlooking a lake. A plane comes flying overhead. Except then I realize that there’s something wrong with it... a broken wing, or smoke coming out of the engines, or whatever. I watch as the plane…

So we’re not allowed to care about players cheating anymore? Just out of curiosity, as a sports fan, what am I allowed to care about that won’t end up getting mocked on Deadspin? I can understand picking-and-choosing your battles, and maybe this battle is silly in your opinion, but it’s still something that sports…

Yeah, I don’t know why you insist on putting down this game, Patricia. What have you ever done that’s so special?

At first I was going to make fun of Daredevil for not being able to make his horns level. Then I remembered that he’s blind, and that this is probably a fairly accurate representation of what his costume would actuall look like.

Vanderbilt Football: Like It Or Not, We’re Gonna Pound It Into Your End Zone!

I can’t help but question the “intelligent” portion of that statement.

The majority of Americans have decided, based on attendance figures and television ratings, that they’re not particularly interested in tennis and soccer. If you like these sports, that’s fantastic! Everyone needs a hobby. But you’re in the minority. It’s okay to admit that.

When the best defense is, “But women’s soccer and tennis are just as good as their horribly-boring male counterparts,” then women’s sports suck. They just do. And for…

So quit, Ruben. Because it’s only gonna get worse.

Bummer. Why didn’t they just combine the post-apocalyptic open world of Fallout 3 with the fighting of Arkham City, the nemesis system of Shadow of Mordor, the racing of Burnout Paradise and the vehicle customization of Gran Turismo 5? Seems simple enough to me.

How many people lost their jobs when Deadspin lost three million unique visitors in March? Geez, what the hell happened there?

What a bummer that must be to work your way up the corporate ladder, to the level where you’re someone’s boss... and even then, all you can afford is a $16,000 Scion.

For me, I loved Simmons’ writing when I was 21 and in college and had nothing but free time to read his columns. Part of me aspired to be a writer, and I thought his style was fun and engaging and, aside from his Boston upbringing, his interests roughly aligned with mine.

Shut up, Ruben Amaro. Why do you have to ruin everything?

God, that sandwich looks so good.
