People look at the overall demographics of Chicago and assume that it’s this great multicultural melting pot - and some neighborhoods are - but it’s mostly very segregated.

There’s so many true examples of how racist Boston is, why would Deadspin bother to invent any? Seems like a waste of effort.

Three Word Phrase is the best.

Boston and Philly get a lot of justifiable hate, but Chicago, for all that’s amazing about it, has a surprisingly high racist population. I bet 40% of Hawks fans think that those taunts were funny.

5/5 would star again

We have a certified asshole in the family. He’s universally recognized as an asshole. He papers over it with occasional displays of generosity, so everyone keeps forgiving the assholery. The thing is, even the generosity is frequently assholish, such as buying you a gift you’ve clearly stated that you do not want, or…

The thing about Kersh, he’s a lot like what Skinner originally was. If Skinner is a level or two removed from Mulder and Scully, but sympathetic, Kersh is in a similar state but even more levels removed. He officially has to stay as overtly disapproving of the X-Files as possible to maintain his status within the…

If they wanted to limit it to the cropduster, I’d have been fine with that, but the final image of the airliner was a bridge too far. Contrails are water vapor. It’s really simple science.

There was a moment there where he almost became they protagonist, and Mulder and Scully were the asshole FBI agents who were obstructing his legitimate investigation. It was kinda neat.

He was on that Amazon pilot, Oasis, that apparently hasn’t been picked up, and he was quite amusing in that. He’s introduced as comic relief, but he plays it with a “tears of a clown” sensibility that I think could’ve gone somewhere interesting.

He’s known them for over 20 years, he wasn’t worried that they’d fail. Remember, too, that if Skinner is a crypto-team member, Kersh is a crypto-crypto team member. He’d rather they toed the line, it’d make his life easier, but he believes in right and wrong.

I think true contrition does exist, but yeah, most of the time you’re right.

Written apologies do nothing for me, even when they hit the right notes, because they can be carefully crafted to elicit a particular response or even be provided by another party. Even when clearly written by the person in question, as in the case of Louis CK’s apology recently, there’s a calculation to it - “I’m…

This post has a weirdly small number of replies. Did you guys forget to post it to Twitter or something? (I assume that’s where all the degenerates ... er, that is, readers ... find Deadspin content.)

Hey now, none of us would be here without motherfuckers.

Also, he has more hits than Pete Rose.

You ... you have to ... you have to actually put a joke in before you hit “publish.” That’s how this works.

That’s like saying it’ll become difficult to fill a cart with groceries before it becomes difficult to fill the Pacific basin with seawater.

I can’t tell if you’re arguing or agreeing.

Are you suggesting that there aren’t enough pro boxers working today to equate to 32 53-man rosters?
