Yup, you’ll have your jaw wired shut for two months and will only be able to eat applesauce and drink smoothies. But you still have your self respect and dignity!

Fobabett is correct.

Most successful cheaters maybe.

Holy shit did you ever miss the joke. And ‘fucking the chicken’ is just a weird thing to say, is that your go-to phrase? Ew.

Well, sounds like a four game suspension for Big Ben, and Steelers lose a first and a fourth round pick. Sorry Steelers fans. Also I am looking forward to reporters asking Ben what he would say to children who look up to him.

I saw someone driving a car with its hood ripped off yesterday. Rest of the car was in pretty bad shape too. That car pulled up behind another car that was waiting to turn left at an intersection and honked because they felt the car turning left wasn’t aggressive enough!

It’s always so much better for the player to not respond. If you show that the fans are in your head, you’ve already lost, no matter how clever your ‘bitch’ insult is. Just walk by and pretend like they don’t exist.

Well played, Slurms.

Pats fan here. We may be despicable and scum and everything that’s been pointed out.... but the ‘discussion’ in this thread is the dumbest fucking thing I’ve read in months in the Deadspin comments, and that’s saying something.

I thought you were being super pedantic about the terminology in his joke, so I apologize if I misread your comment. I think he just wanted to make a really easy joke that’s predicated on the fact that Ty Cobb and the county have the same name, and didn’t put more effort into it than that. I feel for you and anyone…

Well, you found the gaping flaw in the logic of his joke. Good work.

At home, he just goes by “Road Rash”.

D’oh!

You lived in Gummere Hall too? Nice! 3-1 for life.

Agreed. He has the chance to have a wide-ranging legacy. The biggest question might be what could have been if he were always healthy and played behind a good offensive line. He is among the best QBs when it comes to command of the huddle and being able to read coverages; you could see that when everything was…

Bledsoe was pretty bitter about being replaced by Brady. I think the thing for Romo to do is to be a complete team player, help Dak any way he can, and not go public with any misgivings. Cowboys fans already love him from what I can tell, but if he puts the team ahead of himself the next couple months, I think he’ll…

I still really like Bill Simmons and listen to most of his podcasts (also a Boston sports fan, insert your joke here).

I’m a Patriots fan. Sure wish my coach had said this.

Well said.

Gotcha, all good.
