Fun while it lasted though...

THEY HAVE SHUT DOWN USERS WHO HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT SPANFELLER INCLUDING DEADSPINRIP AND SPLINTERRIP

Shhh. Keep it like a secret. . . .

I’m fucking sitting here on my couch in my silent living room literally barely able to see the keys through tears. This fucking blows.

ALL KINJA!!! WE WILL STAY TOGETHER!!!

Fuck Jim Spanfeller

They just nuked a couple of commenter created refuge kinja sites for Splinter and Deadspin. Wouldn’t be surprised if all comments across kinja disappear within the coming days/weeks.

Have you guys heard of the mythical Span Jimfeller? It’s actually super scary, just this like raving lunatic monster with no loyalty or savvy. Super fucked up.

Fuck Jim Spanfeller

Your comment comes bearing a nice subtle reference. These are the kind of comments I will maybe miss the most.

Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness was here.

It’s been a blast. Diana, I look forward to following your work. Deadspin forever.

I know she wasn’t part of this week’s craziness, but I want to give a shout-out to Dvora Meyers, who took a sport I really knew nothing about and wrote some sensational pieces about it.

My humble request for the commentariat: please ungray as many of the gray comments as you can. Everyone should be seen today, unless they are Portnoy bootlickers of course.

Thank you Deadspin. It has been a truly fun and enlightening experience throughout.

Fuck Barstool Sports with an actual barstool

RIP Gawker, RIP Splinter, RIP Deadspin. I was never a sportsball guy but Deadspin’s irreverence, writing, and commentariat had me coming back at least once a day.

There will never be a comment section quite like this on any other corner of the Internet.
