This is an important article, but there are so many typographical errors that I’m amazed it got through any editing process.

Whether or not Pete Rose is a giant asshole (and he is), Ichiro shall reign supreme. Nippon is a very strong league, and if Ichiro- who has never played for the team I love, but is someone I greatly respect- had been in the US for the nine years he spent in NPB, I’m sure he would’ve had just as many hits as he got in…

This was an interesting, excellently-written article. Thank you, Peter.

I. Fucking. Love. This. Email.

I made the state finals of this competition when I was in middle school, and neither then nor now could I do any of these problems at one-tenth the speed of these kids. Absolutely amazing.

I’m trying to reconcile what a great point this article is making with how unabashedly terribly this article is written.

The guy didn’t just delete his tweets, he deleted HIS ENTIRE ACCOUNT.

I paradoxically enjoy Deadspin despite not enjoying many of its writers, so I am all about this change. What’s it called when an April Fool’s thing is actually cool and not a prank?

“Turtleneck and Chain” has, truly, one of my favorite lyrics in music history:

I couldn’t agree more- I would rather have a new Name of the Year bracket than any birthday gift. It’s a beautiful thing.

I literally said that I cover high school sports for a living- you really think I’m not aware that there’s a difference in distance between high school and college threes? Thanks for the totally unnecessary lesson though, bro.

You are absolutely correct- that is an *INCREDIBLY* poor 3-point line, but the kid definitely shot a high school 3. Thanks.

Oh yeah, it was totally irrelevant as far as the result goes; I just notice those types of things.

Those are some amazing highlights, but there’s absolutely no way that last shot was a 3- his feet were clearly on the line. I guess the refs were just too tired to give a crap at that point, and I don’t really blame them. As somebody who covers high school sports for a living, I have tremendous respect for two quality…

This is the best.

This is a great piece, but I take exception to one passage, the sentence “Holtzclaw destroyed 13 women’s lives; ‘Who Is Daniel Holtzclaw?’ told the story of how they destroyed his.” This might be nitpicking, but you use “destroyed” for dramatic effect, and I think it’s potentially demeaning to the women he raped. Rape…

How is “one defender” equivalent to “Gent’s whole defense”? The back who makes the pass just fucks up- there’s no “clowning” there- and the last defender simply doesn’t get there in time, which isn’t his fault considering he didn’t assume he’d have to immediately deal with an attacker. What a stupid headline and…

It’s interesting that this article chooses to not even name the writer of the Holtzclaw article, and I’m trying to figure out why. Was it a simple oversight? Did Barry not want to shame Jeff Arnold, even though he clearly deserves to be shamed? Is it a hit piece on SB Nation? Did Barry not want to bring attention to…

I was in India for the Super Bowl two years ago, and I couldn’t even find it on my hotel’s TV. (Fortunately, it was a great game to not have to sit through.) I did manage to catch the NBA All-Star Game, though- go figure.
