Well, Jim, I’m sure it’s right up there with the posts that were removed about invasive auto-playing ads yesterday by someone unilaterally in management in violation of the CBA.

“Hey, we could either have this thing quietly make us money for years with basically no effort, OR we can break the employees, make readers abandon the place, and then sell it for pennies of the dollar against what it could actually potentially be worth...hmmm, let’s do the second thing!”

What’s amazing is that all the new management had to do was leave shit alone. The cluster of sites was profitable post-Gawker lawsuitapalooza, so they could just sit around watching cat videos and they’d be praised for their business and media acumen.
Instead, they had to do what these idiots always do and make…

After I log in at work, the next tab I open is for Deadspin - Every Day!

Or better yet Great Hill Partners has two seats on the G/O board. Perhaps they should be tipped off to the great work Spanfeller is doing.

I definitely picked the wrong day to stop sniffing glue, I can tell you that much

Just sent Jim an email telling him how much I love the new “no sports at all” direction the website is going.

wait i am really waiting for is their non-G/O media email addresses to be released. 

Sorry, those ads were for me. I meant to type Tempura but, as it was obviously not sports related, google assumed I meant Tempe, where at least the Sun Devils play.

I didn’t even think they had articles.  Just headlines and comments.

Where the fuck else am I supposed to go to read up on the fine print of Oddibe McDowell’s water bill?

Yesterday I was receiving ads on G/O sites for condos in Tempe. I’ve never set foot in Tempe, never Googled Tempe for any reason, never looked for flights for Tempe, nothing. But the place did look nice, and there’s a Whole Foods on the ground floor!

Deadspin usually has sports?

I’m sure you already know this and probably intended it, but I just figured out that this is actually funnier if you post it on every post.

Can confirm. These certainly appear to be three very good dogs.

As someone who was once part of a similar insurrection against arrogant, incompetent, and condescending management, I want to applaud all of y’all for today’s showing. I’m sure you’re simultaneously enjoying the fun of mutiny while also understanding the risk. Please also know how much it means to us here in the feebl…

These dogs are most certainly more deserving of human compassion and love than say, Jim Spanfeller (who by the way, if you didn’t know, has an email address: jim@g-omedia.com). That stain deserves to hear why a dog is more noble and deserving of human love and affection than he is.

You should definitely consider taking stock of your life choices.
