So, are you saying Drew is responsible for Michael Tunison’s actions? Or that he needs to publicly condemn him for being accused of “stalking, harassment, physical intimidation”? Why? What does it have to do with Drew, aside from him knowing Tunison and working with him over a decade ago?

I think your and Harper’s definitions of “upper-decking” are probably different

in his case i’d say the Ballsrog

something came back with him

Barstool isn’t more successful than Deadspin. As Drew mentions in the piece, Deadspin gets significantly more traffic. I can’t even find Barstool on any list of top sports sites by traffic. That’s how little they matter in terms of clicks.

I’ve seen more headlines here about Bill Simmons and Barstool than specific sports stories.

Seriously, Magary has been spitting straight fire after whatever happened to him, and I, for one, am here for it.

the dead letters out of this will be gold.

This would be a devastating blow if they hadn’t already addressed it and evolved as a company and a brand while long-term writers like Drew and Barry have apologized for Deadspin’s past (and their own on this site) and jumped aboard the “don’t write like an asshat” train.

Yeah, I think I just realized that about myself, too.

A Magary is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he gets out of intensive care.

They can rebuild him. They can make his takes better, faster, stronger.

He was Drew the Gray. After his battle with (the Balrog? for all we know) we believed him gone forever, but he has returned as Drew the White to help us destroy Sauron.

Whoa. Drew’s “accident” and “hospitalization” were apparently just a cover story while he was in the Weapon X program. Bring on the berserker attacks!

But also the most spot-on.

I wanted them to sign both, obviously. And Machado is the better of the two players right now, and certainly the more durable of the two.

I think in this situation you have to ask though whether or not “more marketable” is code for shameful, ridiculous prejudice against Hispanic ballplayers or for fairly reasonable, understandable prejudice against people from Florida.

You are not wrong. Harper’s solid years are still very, very good, but he had that one breakout year and his reputation has been coasting on it ever since.

You’re really not tbh

It was actually a woman who said that. But I want to know more about her testimony. That sounds insane.
