I’ve tried, but then I’m reminded that we are an unknown number of days away from Spanfeller finishing his stripping of the corpse and turning off the lights across all of G/O media. I’m reminded of how Deadspin was able to even entertain and foster a community among long time sports fans of commentors and even people…

We don’t acknowledge this version of “Deadspin”.

I know this isn’t the point of this article, but I would definitely eat hot-wing flavored oreos.

I venture over there once in a blue moon just to remind myself of what we’ve lost

I’m surprised to hear that not one but TWO people read Nu Deadspin.

“When I saw that a black guy wrote it,”

Jason Johnson?

Yes!!! I’ve been waiting all day for this article and so glad you were the one to write it, Michael! I hate-read the Deadspin article with a mixture of fascination (that someone actually approved publication) and anger (mostly anger). One of the worst takes on the Fed-Uprising yet

But you know, I will say I missed the cross site synergy. Nice to have it back, if even only for a little while.

Old deadspin did some stupid shit but this? This is insane 

Fucking Fakespin. Shit-ass writing like that belongs on Barstool. Can’t expect a bunch of scabs to have any sort of decency or mental wherewithal.

Yeah, this whole pandemic is laying bare the way a certain portion of America—particularly the American right—looks at people. It’s nothing new, it’s just more explicit, more jarring.

Their autoplay video sales team must be screaming right now.

G/O Media ad salesmen are jumping out of windows (but not Windows) right about now.

Ah man, what are ya’ll gonna do?

Any news on when they will be getting kicked off kinja?

Interesting that I’m reading this article on a website that I can no longer browse on data networks because the muted autoplay videos vampirize my data plan. Is this the type of thing Google is trying to mitigate here?
