“The account was true and well-reported. It concerns a senior business executive at one of the most powerful media companies on the planet.”

When reached for comment, Floyd dodged, then weaved, then danced around for about forty minutes, then kinda batted the question away, smiled a lot, and received the award anyway for some fucking reason.

The fan experience isn’t the only thing that matters in sports, but it is the central thing

In story with @ramonashelburne we also report Mavs now fear they won’t now get audience with Jordan as Clips have essentially surrounded him.

Is it not true MLBers get lifetime insurance after one game? Or a $34,000 pension after 43 days in the bigs?

A radio interview would make you pass on a school?

“What’s better than having Bargnani on this team? Having TWO Bargnanis on this team. I call that my Bargnani metric, nerds.”

Kriskross Portuguesesauce was a great pick for the Knicks.

An NBA franchise adrift fell under the sway of the oldest siren song of the draft, running her hard-earned lottery pick aground as she reached for the “upside” shoals of a 7-foot EuroMantis. It’s a tragic tale as old as the Lottery herself.

It doesn’t fail me that the black guy wrote this article. It’s like Deadspin uses Greg Howard as their house boy when they really want to criticize a black guy and talk about racism But don't want it to look too bad.

Going to AskMen.com as a legitimate source of information in regards to men makes as much sense as going to Jezebel.com for feminist thought.

The Musial Suspects

Yo, I’m still going to watch the Women’s World Cup and cheer for the USWNT, and I do agree that there’s a distinction between intimate-partner abuse and family abuse, but this still kind of seems like some bullshit. I’m just not sure you can (rightly) be so critical of the system in the one case for doing exactly what…

False, black men can also catch heat, but only if they are rich/famous/straight/athletes.

I agree she shouldn’t be held to a higher standard, the women’s soccer team has been held up either through the media (mostly) or through US Soccer itself as a group of women who should be looked up to by 8-12 year old girls throughout the country.

but did she shoot first?

In Gawker/Deadspin’s eyes, the only people who can truly do damage to society and be held responsible for their actions are white men. Seriously, I would like to know how it feels to wake up and dig for different reasons to be a victim every morning. It seems exahusting.

Guys, guys, if she feels black, we can’t argue with her feelings. Screw other people’s lives and history, Rachel needs to express herself.
