From the desk of Jim Spanfeller: “When you post my picture, everyone must focus 100% of their focus on comparing me to poopballs. That will be our sole focus. We will only write about poopballs and that which is relevant to poopballs in some way.”

Must suck to be the blogger at Jezebel on THIS night.

Sporty sportswriters writing sports-oriented sports stories, as is the norm!

Not anymore. That chant got pulled.

Just like Farmers pulled their Ad revenue due to the hamfisted way that Spanfeller and co implemented it.

Ironic really.

I really enjoy their group chant: “We are Sounders! Bum-ba-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum!”

Wow!  This is a great post about sports, sports only, and nothing else besides sports!

Dear r/AmITheAsshole,

So, I was recently put in charge of an already successful website by this private equity firm. I covered the site in loud, obnoxious ads, drove readers away and than started firing the people who made the website successful in the first place when they wouldn’t kiss my ass. But, I mean, those…

*chef's kiss*

I came here to say, if there’s any investors who are either readers, or who are eying this situation, I would totally be down to pay a subscription to Deadspin 2.0 or UnDeadspin. Actual human dollars, and not just ad revenue. And I’d like to think I’m not alone in that thinking, either. Let someone else’s fuck up be…

Not sure there’s gonna be a better place to post this, so here we go:

Hey Drew. You’re the best, and good luck with the brain and everything.

A question for the Funbag: why should I keep reading anything on this website after Jim Spanfeller and Paul Maidment went to the lengths of firing Barry, like cowards, for the dumbest of reasons?

I want to support the writers here—this is both the best website that exists, and has ever existed, and the best sports…

Please do not disparage my good blog. All regular blogs are Just Look Nice; blogs in the feature format are Very Fancy.

You guys are awesome. It is not hyperbole to say that this site often gets me through the day. Keep up the good work, and for the love of god do not stick to sports.

Man, I love people who self-own through being hilariously inept. You know, pumpkin thieves, thin-skinned vulture capitalist owners of blog sites, those kinds of folks.

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

MLB instructed the home team to wear alternate jerseys so the president is the only obvious white national in the stadium.

Mean Moms would be a good movie because you grow up and get out of high school, and you think the mean girl shit is over, then you have a baby. And holy shit, you realize the mean girls never grew up. Except now they are insinuating that you're poisoning your baby by using formula.
