These Deadspin-trying-to-be-Esquire posts definitely bring out the HERE IS MY LIFE STORY comments

You might want another line of work. You seen to hate your customers. Or maybe they are just feeding off your dickishness.

Despite standing in the sidelines, Gronk is still expected to draw multiple OPI flags.

I don’t understand academic types perspective when it comes to things like football. You can enjoy something and also realize it has its flaws.

The purpose of this article is not to generate intelligent legitimate discourse. The article suggest that we are all either too stupid to form our own opinions, or we are too lazy. You are being told what to think.

Listen, I’m an academic too — a historian, actually (btw please don’t with the affected English “an”). And a rabid football fan. And I have to tell you, the smug elite/popular aesthetic you open this piece with is infuriating. Just...get over yourself. Every time I scroll back up to re-read a sentence, I find another

Isn't this a familiar feeling for Jets fans, though? The Jets getting beat by Rex Ryan isn't news, you guys.

Where I live, people think the purpose of an apostrophe is to warn the reader than an “s” is coming at the end of the word.

Gosh I wonder why Brady didn’t want to hand over his phone to the NFL!

Last time I saw that many hits put into a cooler, Ted Williams was involved.

“As long as people talk about the game, whenever they mention the name Yogi Berra, they will smile because he was that kind of a human being.”

Confess! Confess to me everything about your life. I want to read every writer’s individual experience with everyday mundane life occurrences and sublimate them into a tale of heroism, defeat, or extreme individuality. The subject must be you. Your suffering. Your particularities that just somehow separate you from

Grinder is a Connecticut term, and those fuckers are basically New Yorkers. I’ve never called a sub anything but a sub ever in my life, despite my NY’er boyfriend trying to convince me it’s called a hero. Never heard anyone call a non-tonic water carbonated beverage anything but a soda. If you’re gonna pick on our

This is a sham, and mockery of journalistic integrity, and a travesty of justice. A shamockesty™ if you will. I never thought I’d see the day when Deadspin would copy and paste an entire article from ESPN(comments and all) and call it their own.
