Imagine fall Sunday afternoons without the NFL. No tailgate parties, no televisions to shout at, no games whatsoever. Nothing. Now imagine you're an executive for a television company that had just agreed to fork over hundreds of millions of dollars for broadcast rights to a league that has no games to show. You've…
After the most violent NFL game ever played, Marc Wilson sat on the team flight back to the West Coast, nursing his injured thumb. A Raiders team doctor approached. He had a secret message to pass along.
Thank you for your continued support of Deadspin. I mean that with some extra special oomph this time, because this is my last day here. I start Monday as the Jets beat writer for NJ.com. Can't wait till Rex and Mark realize where I used to work. That ought to be fun.
Only in Philly: Dick Jerardi watches the city's six Division I teams at four venues in three hours Wednesday night. "I insist on a short detour down 34th and then back up 33rd to roll through Penn's campus and pay homage to the darkened Palestra. They could have made this a lot less challenging if all the games had…
The NFL fined Mike Tomlin $100,000 for getting in the way of Jacoby Jones's kick return. The Steelers were not fined, but they may have to forfeit a 2014 draft pick or have their draft position altered. In the meantime, let the memes continue. Please enjoy Tomlin tripping the Islanders' Andrew MacDonald.
Seamlessly, this steakhead even manages to squeeze in a few chants for Geno Smith to tear his ACL. All without spilling his beer. It also looks like dude pissed his pants. A bravura performance of stupidity. This is like watching the id of every Jets fan.
Which is not a bad pick! Until you remember that Winslow plays for the Jets, and that the Jets are still mathematically in contention for a playoff spot. This is what's known as picking with your head and talking out of your ass, which makes it a very Kellen Winslow Jr. thing to say.
Thank you for your continued support of Deadspin. It's Tuesday night. There will be sports.
Shayanna Jenkins was indicted for perjury in relation to the Aaron Hernandez murder case back in September. Prosecutors have since accused her of destroying evidence. And now, in court documents, the Bristol County (Mass.) prosecutor provided even more specific details, alleging that Jenkins lied to the grand jury 29…
Admit it: Whenever you watch Pete Carroll do his cocksure sideline strut routine, you can't help but picture him wearing a monocle and a top hat while swinging a cane at poor people. The original is from last year, but the photoshopped gif you see above has been making the rounds for a while. Larry Brown Sports…
England played Germany during pool play today at the Argentina World League final when ... aw, look at that! What a cute doggie! Such a cute doggie! She just wants to play! Look at her go! She's free! She's free and she loves it! That's a good girl! Such a good girl! Who wants a belly rub! You do, don't you?! Yeah,…

The Donald reached out to us last winter, thinking he was being gracious. Fuck him. Here's an illustration of Donald Trump with a dick for a nose.
Vodka Samm stumbled and slurred her way into our hearts back in September. She tried to jump on the field during a University of Iowa football game, was snagged by police before she could get there, had a .341 blood-alcohol content, and unashamedly boasted about it all on Twitter. Vodka Samm showed us how to do…
There may be a regional foodstuff somewhere in America that's worse than "Cincinnati chili." But we've yet to find it. More than a few Ohioans took umbrage with our take on their "abominable garbage-gravy." But what's important to keep in mind is that these are people who actually enjoy eating the stuff. They're…
Papa John likes his Louisville Cardinals. Papa John allegedly likes his whiskey. Papa John allegedly just can't drink a lot of it. Let us once again admire the sight of Papa John, shitfaced beyond belief.
Lennay Kekua was the heartbreaking story of the 2012 college football season. She was the young, beautiful girlfriend of Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o, but she died that September. The way the narrative went, her death served as an inspiration for what would become a charmed season, both for Te'o and for the…
