I’m always pleasantly surprised when someone in the Gawker family does actual journalism.

Come on, Sherman values that stuff because it’s the right thing to do. He shook Brady’s hand in the ending moments of the worst loss in his (Sherman’s) career; it’s not beyond expectations he’d like Mayfield to do the same before a normal regular-season game in October.

Not that I’ve ever played sports that earned myself or anyone else money, but I have played sports. And I really don’t think that, once you’re on the field you’re thinking about the economics.

Dunno, that’s a pretty basic one right there. You want to be salty and pissy and not even extend the courtesy of a handshake, then yeah, I’m fine with Sherman’s reaction. Sherman didn’t do the equivalent of throwing a fastball at someone’s head, he just said it motivated him. Nothing to see here.

Luke-warm take: It’s ok to be annoyed if a guy refuses to shake your hand before the game.

I like Richard Sherman - I don’t think he’s asking too much to have a respectful handshake before the game. Why not?

Zwift is great for winter training - I can sit in a gym staring at a phone screen or I can sit at home on a Turbo, on my own bike racing specific targets/courses/routines with incredible ease. 

The only thing in this article that I completely believe:

The answer to this and other questions may be found in the article you just skipped past so you could fire off this dumb comment.

That kills it for me as well. Besides being a shitty thing to do, what else has the seller cheaped out on for maintenance? 

As a lifelong Bills fan who is from Western NY and who has attended 70+ games, I’ve stopped going because of shit like this. While Deadspin laughs at the antics of Hashtag Bills Mafia, most of us fans who have been going for decades are sick of this shit and would like to go to a game without seeing people act like…

According to my brother-in-law, who was at the game and walked past this just before it happened, the people he spoke with who arrived afterwards said the guy was pretty badly injured and removed by ambulance. Second hand, obviously, but he also was told that before the tweet went viral, so take that for what it's…

As a native, I can vouch this is factual.

“Free the Juice” is the least surprising thing I see here

“Yup...that’s me... you’re probably wondering how I got here...” 

In a sane world, this would signal the end of this dumb shit.

It would be a Music City Miracle if he survived that one.

It would be a teeny tiny first step if Braves fans did literally any other chant / cheer, or if the PA prompted them to do anything else, at any point during a game.

I know that the Braves are young and fun and St. Louis is Public Enemy #1 in the Deadspin style guide, but as a Giants fan who will thus almost certainly* be cheering for the winner of this series against the Bums in the next round, I would very much rather align myself with the humorless smug fartsniffing Cardinals…
