That is (largely thanks to Jay Leno) how late night talk shows ended up. But find yourself some old episodes of The Dick Cavett Show or Carson’s Tonight Show, and you’ll see even the conversations with guests are way better.

I know it’s trendy and fashionable to hate on the American healthcare system, but it’s worth noting that in literally every other country in the world, he’d already be dead. And what’s an exclusive, experimental treatment for the rich today could be inexpensive and universally available tomorrow.

Sure. You could point out that, as a millionaire sports celebrity, he’s now qualitatively different from the kind of people that get shot by police, more likely to get the O.J.

Of course it was a hoax. Having National Cuban Sandwich Day implies that every day isn’t Cuban Sandwich Day, which is absurd.

Are we going to see a Spanish-language spinoff of DS or any ex-Gawker properties? You already use Spanish language clips for some sports, and three of what I would hazard are your top four sports by coverage volume are big in Mexico, so it seems like there’d be a lot of room for synergy.

Imagine what choice words Chase Utley must have for Deadspin’s Philadelphia contingent.

He doesn’t have to sign a lot of things. The more you sign, the more illegible your signature gets.

Maybe the PA is reading this all wrong. A sworn affidavit can be the basis for criminal prosecution, so perhaps the point of the interviews is just to pretend there’s been a due-diligence investigation and let everyone off the hook based on “evidence” that’s kept behind closed doors.

For the confused: this is not the same Thiago da Silva what plays soccer.

Here’s a hot take for you: the beverage shower is one of the dumbest traditions in sports.
