Vikings fans like me

So, I decided to rebrand my personal Kinja as Plaidspin. It's mostly wishful thinking at this point - who knows if it'll ever take off, or if I'll have enough time to write enough - but I was thinking it would be cool to have a Canada-focused side-site, kind of like how Deadspin has sister-blogs for

Hey DUAN - sorry for interrupting the draft party - but I wrote a big thing, and I think you'd enjoy it!

I mean, it's not like he went after some superstar on Italy. Giorgio Chiellini was a bit player.

You missed one:

Ghana already seems to be enjoying their quadrennial "being Googled by Americans" bump.

This isn't what I come to DadPenis for.

I am so glad someone else on Earth loved that Scottish fish impression. My girlfriend and I have said "yooou dooon't knooow meee" to each other at least once a day ever since.

The hardest part, for me, was trying to explain to my son that Michael Sam actually was the first gay player to play in the NFL. The kid's a bit of a computer wiz, so he built an XML tracking system crowd-sourced from the people he figured would know best - NFL fans commenting on ProFootballTalk's Facebook page - and
