While both companies exemplify this issue, there are at least two legitimately good reasons for this post being about Amazon and not Foxconn, as I see it: 1) Relatively nobody knows what Foxconn is, whereas everybody reading this has an Amazon account. You could argue that there would be value in educating people…

Or do they also want the fence removed and unrestricted immigration across the border, like we have with Ireland/Northern Ireland?

Some thread-tweeter who got RTed into my timeline suggested that this is all a ruse and Northern Virginia has been the target all along, because Amazon’s most profitable arm by far is Amazon Web Services, which recently moved its headquarters to the area. The logic being that the company has quietly decided its real…

I agree that the team could — and should — have scheduled their way around this, but to me that’s an entirely separate issue from the simple question of whether Pierce is being petty. And if he truly considers it disrespectful to spend a literal minute of his special night celebrating another former player, I do think…

This take is so crazy I’m kinda worried I’m responding to Paul Pierce’s Deadspin pseudonym, but here goes: Nobody on Earth is claiming that Isaiah Thomas’ achievements with the Celtics measure up to Pierce’s, and the team is not asking Pierce to share his moment of recognition with Isaiah. These video tributes are the…

Yeah, the six-team plan would draw opposition from SEC types who think their runners-up are still better than the champions in the other big conferences, an argument Alabama made stronger by beating up on Clemson. And, though they’d never admit it, the powers-that-be would hate to lose the week-to-week drama of the…

UCF fan here. This is the right take. Many of my fellow fans — and some in the local media — spent the night declaring UCF the Real And True National Champion, but there’s no basis for arguing that a victory in the Peach Bowl retroactively means Alabama, which would have been the last team out and just barbecued the…

Amazon says the code isn’t valid.

Amazon says the code isn’t valid.

Is there any actual evidence against him, or is it just accusations.

HAHAAHAHAAHAHHHAAHAHAH sure bud

ah shit, i fucked up

Proposal: a daily Deadspin feature on how whoever starts in right field for the Cardinals played that day relative to Giancarlo Stanton.

This is the wrongest thing ever posted to this website. I’m sorry you live in whatever godforsaken place this could possibly be true.

Hi, UCF fan here. I would be furious if UCF hired Greg Schiano. Not because he’s a moron — though he is that — or a bad coach — though he’s probably that, too — and not because I’m now expecting to never lose again after going 12-0 this season, but because Schiano, as was never mentioned in your very long post, was…

I also voted for Breer.

John Fox clearly not understanding it aside, the broader problem with the rule isn’t that it’s confusing, it’s that it makes no logical sense. Why should a fumble recovered by neither team prior to going out of bounds effectively result in a turnover? If a ball is fumbled into the pylon or through the endzone, the…

I go one step farther: Especially if you’re single or in a couple (read: no kids, no more than two humans in the house) ... don’t use the dishwasher at all. End the night by hand-washing your dishes. Listen to a podcast or some music while you do so. Many people watch television just before bed, or in bed, before…

Jet’s is awful trash, but Hungry Howies is... delicious trash.

The moment we give in and start referring to allegations as understood facts, we’ve lost the basis of our system.

Serious question: Did you actually read the article?
