Las Vegas is getting an NHL franchise. Now it just needs a name. Owner Bill Foley loves the name “Black Knights” but that’s a bad name. Here are some better ones.

Before anyone in Cleveland even had a chance to rip their shirt off in celebration, former ESPN take artiste and sad-man-alone-in-an-airport-hotel Skip Bayless leaped at the chance to diminish LeBron James’ third NBA title and protect Michael Jordan’s standing as the greatest basketball player of all time. It was a…

Today is Cleveland’s day, and I join with the rest of America in obnoxiously glomming onto the city’s moment even though I don’t deserve to. (In fact, I have spent much of the past decade joyously shitting on Cleveland for its miseries … but really, I’m so happy for you now!) Last night was one of the greatest moments…

1. They are not the best team ever.

What are you doing right now? Are you working? Eating? Looking at your phone? I want you to forget all that shit…

For over a year, we at Deadspin have remained fairly quiet about the insane story consuming our parent company, Gawker Media. But while the Hulk Hogan verdict is being appealed and this company is being put up for sale (***flashes bare leg at Mark Cuban***), I think it’s time that we talked openly and honestly but…

By now, you know the terrible story of former Stanford swimmer Brock Turner and the woman known as Emily Doe, the college graduate whom Turner raped behind a dumpster while she was unconscious. Turner was found guilty of three felonies, but got a reduced sentence because the judge feared the “severe impact” of a long…

God bless you, Ted Diadiun of Cleveland.com. Just when I thought this week’s avalanche of Muhammad Ali tributes would be uniformly thoughtful and compassionate, you—good sir—had the courage to write what needed to be written: that Ali was a preening showboat and is the reason lots of people died in Vietnam. All…

On this week’s Deadcast, Marchman and I dive into the surprisingly blame-free death of Harambe the Gorilla. I searched all week for a decent gorilla take, and there was none to be had. If anything, THAT is the real tragedy of all this. I guess the only real lesson is to avoid zoos because they’re hot and smelly and…

A few years ago, when my children were very small, I lamented the fact that I had to cut a great deal of sports out of my life. This happens when you have a baby. There’s no time to watch a tetrafinal playoff game because the kid needs to be fed or taken for a stroll or put to bed or have its butt wiped. But now my…

A look at the awful children’s programming you’re forced to endure before you can finally kick the kids out of the TV room to watch sports for eight hours.

It’s time for us to play the ultimate game of knifey-spoony, folks. Yes, we’re ranking kitchen utensils on this week’s Deadcast, and I think you’ll be surprised about how strongly you feel about where spoons belong in the culinary hierarchy.

You won’t believe this, but Bernie Sanders won the state of Oregon last night. (Real fucking shocker there, I know.) Anyway, Bernie has no realistic mathematical shot at securing the delegates needed to win the Democratic nomination, AND some his supporters are now openly threatening people, because that’s what always…

A year after his rude ouster from ESPN, you’re about to get a whole shitload of Bill Simmons back in your life, both at The Ringer (set to formally debut next month, although they’re already pumping out vital “Is Tom Hiddleston A Superstar?” takes on Facebook) and with his new HBO show, Any Given Wednesday, which also…
