May I suggest a new Deadspin mascott, Sticky; The Stick-to-Sports Stick. Sticky lives in Jim Spanfeller’s butt.

Elway was always good with the long game.

This leads us to one question....is Joe Flacco an elite backup quarterback?

All of the refs have been god-fucking-awful at this all year. If there’s even a shadow of a chance it’s a fumble/Interception that leads to a score, they’re supposed to let it go because the scoring play is going to get reviewed anyway. They’ve been blowing them dead all year long and it’s infuriating. 

Can you guys ask the venture capitalists to make articles take up less space? It’s kind of hard for me to watch both of the “recent videos” that started playing in two separate places when I’ve got four or five lines of text distracting me.

Love the Toronto fan reaction:

What’s important to me is being able to open an article in Jalopnik without a video autoplaying.

I hate double standards. If he had horribly broken his ankle, they would have shown it twenty times, zooming in more each time, going in slower and slower motion.

I’m a process guy. Meaning that I think it doesn’t really matter if a strategy paid off in a single situation, as long as it was the right strategy because, long term, you will win more than you lose if you pay attention to process as opposed to outcome.

Can we see if that truck is available for the inevitable Patriots championship parade in February?

Just an FYI, CO2 leaks out of tubes faster.  It works great to get you back on your ride fast, but you'll want to dump the CO2, and reinflate with a floor pump, when you het back home.

When you’re up 28-3 and the other team comes back to steal your soul, that’s a “Thrasher”.

I CAN’T HEAR YOU OVER THE AUTO-PLAYING VIDEO THAT I CAN’T FIND!!

That lede photo is everything I hope my son will not grow up to be.
