Is Deadspin going to be the equivalent of SI in 20 years. Like in 20 years am I going to be sitting around reading the Jambaroo thinking it is still fresh sports/social commentary, when really we (writers & readers!) have lost touch completely, and all the young people will be making fun of us some new type of platform

Why even open up the comments on this one, that tweet is perfect

Thanks, really liked season 1, so looking forward to it. Only problem is there’s only 10 episodes to work through. One of the great things about Justified for me, was I came in pretty late so had a backlog of something like 50 episodes to look forward to

Alan, help me out with something to replace Justified. Looking for something I can pop in and out of with an episode or so a week, serialized but not in a way that demands binge watching, of relatively high quality, but with an element of fun rather than being super intense

As a follow up, can you think of something comparable to music as being universally accepted that all people like

Was recently on a guys trip Labor Day weekend, and in a drunken sleepwalk stupor I pissed on my buddies luggage. He handled it strangely well. Should I be worried about me, him, or both?

If I replaced the 1 hour I’ve spent on deadspin, everyday since I started my career in 2007, what might I have accomplished

Brie Larson not Allison Brie isnt it?

Anyone who thinks a college degree is any reflection of intelligence is the true idiot

Comparing the “laws of nature and nature’s god on marriage” to “the law of gravity” is about the richest sentence I have ever read.

Was at Karaoke once run by a guy who knew the whole catalogue on guitar, and just played whatever song you picked while the lyrics were displayed on a little monitor beside him. My buddy chose Hotel California, and the guy started jamming out to the intro on his guitar, but had accidentally selected the lyrics for a

Deadspin = Wants to get drunk, secretly likes good beer

Drunkspin always delivers, so thanks Will.
