I am, admittedly, a reluctant Mariah apologist, but that being said, I think it's possible that she was just having an off day. Maybe she had a cold, or maybe the weather was trying her out. Hope so at least, because she used to have an 8 octave range (which is insane), and it would be kind of tragic if she'd really…

Sound engineer here. You're hearing the vocal without the backing music here, taken directly from the mixing desk. At 0:55 the band joins in with bass, drums, etc. and the dancing starts, but you can't hear them in her microphone (pro microphones are designed to have minimal pick-up of 'off axis' sounds. It's a weak…

I have that reaction pretty much every time Deadspin runs one of these isolated vocal articles. The significant majority of readers laughing about this couldn't touch any of these notes if their lives depended on it.

I'm sorry but this is bullshit. If you heard probably 99% of the pop stars these days sing live "unplugged" with no reverb or accompaniment I doubt it would be much better. Beyonce can't sing half as well. Mariah has some def vocal problems, wear and tear from all the riffing and over singing, but this is unfair…

Aside from some questionable attempts to go into a falsetto, I don't see what's awful about this...

Hart and Johnson are expected to receive five years each, but won't be released from prison until the first whistle after that.

You've got to believe Shaw. I was there, an awestruck witness to his selfless heroism. He saved that boy's life.

For the first 27 minutes of the game one dude just held onto the ball all by himself. I think they call that guy "Stephon Marbury"

After reading some of your replies there really isn't that much else to be said. Lol! But I will say that instead of listening to Sirius maybe you should listen or watch some of Rock's Emmy winning shows or Grammy winning records. Steven Wright? Very good comic in his own right but c'mon dude get a grip. Lol!

Saying "Rock is considered one of the top ten greatest comedians..." doesn't mean "Rock is better than Eddie Murphy." Immediately jumping to that thought doesn't make sense.

At no point do you actually address the fact you disagree that he belongs in the top 10. Nobody stated their ranking for this fictional top 10. You simply said he's not as good as others. No shit. Kobe isn't Michael Jordan. He's still top 10. Also, you're absolutely wrong about this "milking it" shit. They're not up…

Because, ostensibly, there's a code of conduct to uphold. It isn't about the strict letter of the law as much as it's about the fact that in many cases, these are people getting paid millions of dollars to represent a larger brand, perform as part of a team, and bring in money from the fans.

I really think every Ray Rice story should end with, "And Josh Gordon is facing a 16-game suspension for smoking weed."

The lesson being that dog's lives are worth more than women's.

I don't know, me layed out on my carpet staring at the wall with tears in my eyes was close

You're the worst psychic I've been to. I want my twenty bucks back.

By "against their will" he means they are trying to remain standing while opposing players are dragging them to the ground. You can come down off your soapbox now.

There are plenty of us who agreed that yes, planes did in fact hit buildings, but what we question is who orchestrated having that happen. The benefits received by supporters of the Bush administration are too great to simply ignore.

9/11 just looked like it was controlled, and I don't get why tower 7 went down. It doesn't really come up much in my life but it did/does look suspect, an I really don't get the animosity people use to protect the story that two planes hit two massive buildings and collapsed into themselves, and tower seven was like…

Pete Carroll doubts the official story on 9/11, but thinks this was a touchdown.
