She’s almost a liability really and is definitely best suited for a secondary role at this point. Whether by design or accident, with her out there the attack is just too predictable. They would be better served letting a combination of Morgan, Press and Leroux try to develop some chemistry

Because their coach has no respect from the players, and because Wambach was key in getting the last coach fired. She refused to play professionally over the last year, decided to train privately instead, and was still rewarded with a starting spot despite being easily worse than several younger players left off the…

Good God, Wambach had been terrible this entire World Cup. Forget missing the pen... In general she has been bad. And as I type this, she had been demoted and Lloyd is taking pens... And converts. Real question is, who replaces Rapino in the 1/4 finals?

Okay man. You have the same general arguments about Deadspin as very serious feminists do about Jezebel. And the response is similar: this is a gossip site about sports, not a sports news site. If you need the play-by-play, this is not it. Hell, Gawker Media isn’t it, except perhaps the (excellent!) reviews of…

I don’t get how seemingly half the Deadspin readership hasn’t figured out that this site doesn’t post the fucking box scores.

Yeah, he’s right. Give us more highlights of sloth dinosaur Abby Wambach! Or use your magic thesaurus to come up with some superlatives to liven up all of these boring passes to the wing! THIS IS ‘MERICA.

If the U.S. team produced something highlight-worthy and then they might get a post.

Reading Deadspin, I notice a lot of comments from people with degrees in journalism or related fields bemoaning the lack of opportunities in the profession. May I suggest trying sports journalism? Day after day these cringe-worthy pressers where the journalists ask the most banal questions of the the sport’s most…

I’m not sure that there is a group of people who are collectively lazier at their jobs than these type of sports reporters. It’s why they got so pissed at Marshawn Lynch: they wanted him to essentially do their job for them.

Normally stuff like this makes my skin crawl (Pop holds all the power in the relationship, the reporters are just trying to do their jobs, etc.), but the first rule of interviewing is “don’t ask yes-or-no questions,” and boy they did that a lot - plus the “talk about...” questions, which aren’t much better, and the…

Well, I could think of a few worse things to happen at the end of a marathon.

You know what would suck more than running 26.2 miles?

Wow! An explosive end to the marathon from these two foreigners!

Does anyone remember baseball just started? We’ll talk about that and the Canadiens game at 11:58 pm

wow! what a fun day of exciting playoff basketball and hockey with some enjoyable early-season baseball mixed in. must be a great sportscenter filled with highlights and excitement! let’s grab that remote and flip on over to catch the fun!

Top throwback jersey in Toronto:

Agreed on the movie staying true to the book (and thus, what really happened in this man's life), but one of the reasons I liked the book so much better is Hillenbrand's descriptive writing. While reading about the Bird's fucked up behavior towards Louie and the rest of the POWs, I felt an anger so intense I thought I…

There are 2 people who don't care if college basketball players get paid or not:

Vote Sherman! The campaign for him to be players union boss starts right here.
