It was a good debut, but these Real Madrid recruits usually flatter to deceive initially. Will have to wait and see how good he really is.

This has happened in every single World Cup for the past 40 years. Why is it only now becoming an issue?

+1 is the loneliest number.

So what happens when the main Te'o story hits 4M views?

This is quite possibly the best thing that could have happened to the Celtics. (I'm being serious.)

Damn you Gamboa. You started this.

Kind of.

Something tells me tomorrow's game is going to be one of the least watched super bowls in recent memory. There's next to zero excitement going into this game.

So apparently the first of the four major Grand Slams of tennis is not even on Deadspin's radar, except to race-bait and score some cheap points. Makes sense; who wants sports on a sports website anyway? Not the usual crowd, that's for sure.

Holy crap, I didn't know they buried the guy under the Ravens stadium. Seems a bit excessive.

Any word from John Koblin's parents on his incredible TV performance?

So random => so funny.

Ah, scoring cheap points on racial issues I see.

Ouch.

Will someone please tell Kobe Bryant he doesn't live in a movie?

Well aren't you a basket of sunshine.

Ay Caramba!

Is anyone else having trouble motivating themselves to read Foodspin recently? I don't think I've read anything since the candy Santa article. That piece was just so incredibly awesome in every possible way that I'm worried I'm going to be disappointed if I read the newer ones.

You get a +1 for this.
