And despite your corporate overlords telling you to stick to sports, I hope Deadspin never does because

and I can’t emphasize this enough

I come to Deadspin BECAUSE YOU DON’T JUST STICK TO SPORTS

That is true Brownian Motion being exhibited. 

They were also cheating because the running back is 33 years old and also Marshawn Lynch.

Not everyone who logs miles in an airplane is a billionaire jet-setter. A fair number of frequent fliers (myself included) are having their travel paid for by their employer. Increasing the cost of those flights isn’t going to reduce the amount that I travel, it’ll just increase the amount my company pays for that…

Sounds to me like they have a design or manufacturing fault in their switching power supply. Using a DC charging station would bypass it.

Production stoppages for new models to correct late-breaking technical issues in the car and motorcycle industry are far from uncommon. No, the bike has not been selling great thus far. But the problem appears to be technical, not a “let’s stop making this motorcycle,” and the media, including Automotive News,…

So they draw the line on tee shirts but not rampant child abuse?

The guy bemoaned the fact that his daughter had to transfer to Bowling Green, KY to continue to work, while his son moved to someplace in Missouri... but what does he want? If the…

This is generally where I’m at as well. I’m a proponent of unions, but the job of unions isn’t to keep people employed forever, it’s to ensure fair wages, safe conditions, etc., for the jobs that are available from any given employer. Especially a big, rich one like General Motors.

I get that auto workers want job “security” since many of them have worked there for decades. You don’t want to be thrown out at the end on your duff when you’re in your 50's. But honestly, there is a lot of myopic thinking and entitlement views coming from so many of these Rust Belt workers. Sure GM and other…

I am a non-tobacco smoker, and I do not enjoy secondhand cigarette smoke or vaping fumes. That said, I would much rather be sitting near someone vaping than smoking a cigarette. It smells much, much worse.
