When I saw the headline I thought this was going to be an article about his contract.
I don’t know if it’s a directive from the editor, or just a case of colleagues adopting each other’s literary styles, but the constant “dunked his soul to hell” and “smacked the ball to the goddamned moon” shit is fucking exhausting and not remotely funny anymore.
It’s a hell of a throw, but geez is he the most overrated player in the game by a long shot. Full disclosure, I am a fan of a division rival club, so I’ve spent Harper’s whole career straddling competing viewpoints of thinking “He’s really nowhere near as good as everybody says” and “I still kind of wish he were on my…
this is the point at which the Deadspin headline voice has officially become a parody of itself.
You guys are trying WAY too hard at this point.
And then you remembered Trump would never do that
I’m not about painting with a broad brush. Save grand wizard of the KKK and Nazi leadership, it’s unreasonable and immature to label someone a bad person because of his or her profession, be it college basketball coaches, cops, whatever. This article essentially tags Beilein as a bad person because he was a college…
My uncle played college hoops with Beilein at Wheeling Jesuit and is friends with him to this day. He always says how good a guy Beilein is, that Beilein has serious suspicions about other coaches and their recruiting tactics, and that, deep-down, he is a basketball junkie who loves the sport.
Eh, I generally agree with your takes, Albert, but your entire premise is off: Cercei has no plans other than spiteful Fuck ‘em. A plan suggests a constructed path—however hare-brained—to achieve a mission. Her decision was to sip on wine and stare out the window until presumably the Night King shows up in town to…
“Cersei was right! That’s the main takeaway from “The Long Night,” the deliriously silly and nonsensical third episode of the eighth and final season of Game of Thrones, which aired last night. “
Google “tragedy definition” and your edgy question will find a boring answer.
You can tell he clearly knows he didn’t get all of it. And flips the bat out of frustration. This is a terrible post.
It kind of almost looks like he’s upset because he knows he didn’t get all of it. Am I crazy?
If you think that is one of the worst things about baseball you have a much higher opinion of the MLB than I.
Three of the first six items on the main Deadspin page are ads that are designed to look like articles, and God knows the Kinja Deals posts are loaded with sponsor-affiliated content. I think you guys can find a more worthy target than this.
Look, I come to Deadspin for (among other things) the righteous takedowns of media outlets and figures for their hypocrisy and bullshit... but I kinda think you’re looking for something to get angry about here and missing the point.
How dare SI try something else to boost its dwindling readership and no longer write only serious sports pieces.
Hot take: Shove taking place within the context of a basketball play where the shover gets called for a foul for said act, is fine. Shove taking place after the whistle, where the shover gets a running start to exact revenge for a harder than necessary foul that was already penalized within the rules of the game, is…
I don’t think you know what a Gold Glove award is for.
