I feel like there’s a slight of hand you’re indulging in regarding the difference between the NBC gig and the Deadspin gig - you’re right that Deadspin (though it does sell ads on its football coverage) doesn’t directly pay and partner with the NFL. That’s like the x axis of the difference. But the y axis is *risk to…
I trust that Deadspin will now stop running any articles on NFL games, in light of your proclaimed policy of purity.
Fans of the NFL and the reporters who cover it (ahem) all have varying degrees of cognitive dissonance about the sport of football. ... Costas’s intermittent on-air critiques of the NFL were instantly undone every time he threw it back to Al and Cris for the start of the second half. And it ain’t like Costas is giving…
When you stop running ads on your NFL content, so will you!
And it ain’t like Costas is giving back the gobs of money he made helping the NFL sling its product.
blogger says established legendary conventional journalist who spoke truth to power and it cost him his job didn’t fired in the right way. that’s pretty rich.
Yeah? So?

Short of a complete overhaul with how free agency works, I think shortening the arbitration window is the most sensible solution moving forward. Teams are getting six years of cheap, controllable talent and now we are seeing those same teams refuse to pay for past or future performance when players finally hit the…
Let’s not let the lives of children behind trafficked (a non-insignificant number, I’m assured) outweigh the freedom of those to sell sex for money (a totally neutral moral proposition). Great stuff.
Can we PLEASE get a zoomed-in screenshot of that cockerspaniel in that pink puffy jacket? That’s the real story here!
10/10 going to use that in future pieces. Thanks.
Even on the Are course yesterday, not known as one of the steepest downhills, the racers went from 0 to 100 kph (62 mph) within moments. Hitting 130 kph (80 mph) isn’t uncommon.
You hate The Simpsons that much?

‘Neal returned to the ice before Biega’s four-minute penalty was over, but that wasn’t because of the typical heralded toughness from hockey guys.”
Goaltending? It was a travel dumbass
Can't wait for this whole thing to be over so you guys can stop being mad Davis didn't traded to Lakers.
I’m with Van Gundy. Absurd that NO is forced to play him when he Does. Not. Want. To. Be. There. And under threat of a way worse fine than he got for publicly demanding a trade.
