I think the Billy Haisley genius level answer would be to go back in time 110 years and start a soccer league that people cared about. Don’t know why US Soccer cant figure that out.

Because he’s a good player. Playing worse players also seems like a significant risk.
I know this plays into your narrative that the MLS is terrible and all, but the Italian coach is just wrong and saying Gionvinco isn’t good enough to play for Italy because of MLS is just idiotic. MLS is at least as good as Liga MX, and Gignac seemed to more than be up to the task at Euro 2016. MLS is bad because of…
This is a sincere question: is your personality as a writer a character, do you happily ignore reality, or are you really as huge of a hypocrite as you seem to be, or is it some combination of those?
That family is such a bunch of dweebs that they tried to act tough when being given the World’s Stupidest Award
Most NBA players can only dream of throwing something at Mike Dunleavy that hard.
[extremely Member Berries voice] ‘member like 3 weeks ago when Deadspin implied that the previous owner of Mike VI in Indiana was better for the tiger than LSU because he said he watched TV with the tigers?
As the 3rd tier American soccer league, the USL should be compared, even in the most liberal interpretations, to League 2 in England, which I don’t see as producing world class quality play too often. Sorry Billy that 18 to 20 year olds who will probably never be good enough to play in MLS don’t play like Messi. Is it…
Lol wut? What do you consider mainstream? ASAP Rocky, ASAP Ferg, and Joey Badass all get regular play on national stations, and Fat Joe and French Montana one of the biggest rap songs of the year.
Saying New York hasn’t even been a hub for rap in a decade is so absurdly ignorant it is not even worth listing out all of commercially successful, influential, and respected rappers from New York at this very moment.
I agree, Sophie, everyone that doesn’t say things exactly on the terms that I want them to deserves to be jailed indefinitely.
While you would think that Nate would be experienced enough in the world of the Internet to know that people will always be nude and red about something, I have no doubt that he daily gets thousands of tweets at him saying that there is no way that the race is close, and that his model is wrong. He seems to have just…
Just an incredible missed opportunity in not having a “Nocturn’s Sleeper” in this column each week
*Holds envelope to head* “1 Jets Dr”
If you’re not starting these guys, your team’s the joke, pal.
I think the fact that it’s not entirely clear if this column is a joke makes it very funny.
His eyes are set at slightly different heights. Should have been a dead giveaway that shenanigans were in store. I’ve got to put this one on the administration for missing that in the hiring process. Just another #Obungle. #Trump2016
How does the Deadspin staff/editors handle the balance between “serious sports writering” and more funny/snarky writing. I read an article on the importance of wearing seatbelts after the deaths of the Nebraska and MSU punters that used “take the L” three separate times and really didn’t match with the seriousness of…
And what’s with all the sports on Deadspin lately? Stick to the things I personally like!
On this season of Hard Knocks, Stan Kroenke’s hair appears to be much grayer than even a year ago. Did he have his toupee-ist make him a gray toupee to prove that he doesn’t wear a toupee?
