I don’t need a reminder; actually it was one of the first things I thought of when the news popped up in my feed. News of his death still shocked the shit out of me tho...

rude of the email of the week to make me cry tbh.

Get the Kickstarter up already.

I came here to say, if there’s any investors who are either readers, or who are eying this situation, I would totally be down to pay a subscription to Deadspin 2.0 or UnDeadspin. Actual human dollars, and not just ad revenue. And I’d like to think I’m not alone in that thinking, either. Let someone else’s fuck up be…

I’m 100 percent in support of the entire Giz family resigning and creating their own independent publication free from Great Hill’s bullshit, and would do everything I could to help out. And a paywall would totally be worth it if it keeps everyone safe from vulture capitalists.

Hey Drew. You’re the best, and good luck with the brain and everything.

As someone who was once part of a similar insurrection against arrogant, incompetent, and condescending management, I want to applaud all of y’all for today’s showing. I’m sure you’re simultaneously enjoying the fun of mutiny while also understanding the risk. Please also know how much it means to us here in the feebl…

Can you let me know when you will be returning to sports coverage so I can go back to checking in once or twice per day? I have a lot to do today at work and all of these posts about non-sports topics are distracting because I Must Read Every Single One of Them. Whereas with the sports stuff I really only care if its…

Hot Polygamists Who Love Road-Tripping Want to Meet Up In Your Area!

Instead of a drug dealer breaking my kneecaps, now my own wife was gonna do it. I was crestfallen.

I will die upon the Hill of Dude. I am a man who came of age in the 80's when Dudes were Dudes and Bro’s had not yet harshed our Dudeness. A Dude is a man of relaxed character and mellow disposition, The Dude was called so for a reason.

Yeah. If only Farris and I had your hindsight to see a rape allegation coming.

Not all heroes wear capes.

Through trial and error and two past locked accounts, I’ve learned that you can get away with a lot of abuse towards the Deadspin authors as long as it’s not terribly personal. They’ll just ignore you and you keep your approved status.  Everyone goes on living their lives like nothing happened

If you need to talk, or just a shoulder to cry on, I’m here for you. 

Rob Gronkowski says he couldn’t sleep for weeks after a fairly routine hit in the Super Bowl

Same. L5-S1, and I was in constant excruciating pain. The initial doctors were AWFUL. Everything took forever to get done. Insurance forced me to do 6 PT sessions that were clearly not doing anything except making me piss myself in pain. They gave me hydrocodone, and it did absolutely nothing for the pain.  They gave…

It’s good because I knew from the start that is was coming, and it still managed to deliver. “Turf toe” was perfect pitch. The Magary-style aggressive capitalization works, too.

I’ve had spinal surgery due to a severely herniated disc (reading Ohrnberger’s tweets and symptoms before/after it sounds similar), and I continued working right up to surgery too. I was not, nor ever was I, an NFL player. In the days leading up to surgery there were a few instances where I dropped to the ground at…

Phew. First work day after Megan left and no Barry to read had me worried.
