I question any GM who drafts a quarterback that has spent his whole life looking at David Carr as a role model.

I don't believe this article is clickbait, but clickbait definitely exists. To argue that it doesn't is pretty fucking stupid.

I could imagine the real John C. Calhoun arguing this

START THAD LEWIS. Fools!

For some reason when I read this I imagined Gollum as a hipster.

Nope, never even been there, unfortunately.

How is body slamming someone an appropriate punishment for running after the whistle? Players keep running after the whistle on nearly every play in a football game.

But that was an excellent play for the New England Patriots

What confuses me about the players is that at around 0:08 or 0:09, the ball is rolling on the ground and several Kansas State players are standing right next to it, watching it roll, as if they're trying to down the ball or something. That's when the UTEP player picks it up. What did they think was going on?

So pretty much everything goes wrong right from the start for both teams on this one play. Guys... is this the worst play in the history of football?

I have watched this video three times now and I'm still confused as to what the fuck is going on. Why do the Kansas State players just sort of stand around watching the ball rather than going to pick it up? When was there ever a fumble during the play? Even though there is an inadvertent whistle literally one second…

The poor guy deserved better.

Ironically, it creates an ironic invocation of irony.

Why do people have such difficulty understanding what is and is not irony? It really isn't that hard.

What happened to Koblin? The last I remember of him was the Manti Te'o story.

What? Chipper Jones isn't playing anymore. He's completely irrelevant to the point being made. I don't even remember mentioning him.

All of the major conferences are trending upward in terms of their star ratings. Are the non-AQ conferences are trending down? It would be very interesting to see all of the conferences stacked up next to each other.

I see 31 potential bogus lawsuits for defamation of character, and the Bills being left out of the post-season fun again.

I think it does have something to do with that. I think that's a big reason why Jeter receives an absurd amount of love. Baseball unfortunately lives in the shadow of the steroid era, and fairly or not, the whole sport's reputation has been damaged. Only players old enough to have played during the steroid era without…

Many people actually do see it as a big deal, though. People don't go to these things and roll their eyes or boo or anything like that. They legitimately believe that Jeter was a baseball hero. There are many non-Yankees baseball fans who say they love Jeter. You have to remember that Deadspin is devoted to offering…
