How is a guy named Buzz NOT the GM of the Hornets? It’s a goddamn travesty.

As a former athlete at Brandeis, I can tell you this surprises me 0%. When I got injured, the head trainer (the only redeeming quality of that athletic program) didn’t even want my coach around when she was telling me my different options because she knew the coach would pressure me to play. It was known that coaches…

Do you feel good about yourself Deadspin for what you’ve done to this coach? Do ya? You got a racist and disgusting human being suspend and probably fired. I hope you can sleep better at night for what you’ve done.

Well my guillotine is almost built, so if anybody has any pitchforks and *torches on them that they would like to donate then I’m ready to party like it’s 1789. 

This is by far the best comment on that stare he’s giving the Phanatic.

“We were optimizing for distance to the grocery store, so in that situation you’re not thinking about perfect selection. We’re confident that in the long term, the synergy of cottage cheese and hamburger buns on taco night will work out.”

I’m appreciating Kapler’s Dadaist approach to managing.

Look at that pic and try to tell me with a straight face that ol’ Gabe isn’t planning to rape the Philly Phanatic.

There might be a little more to the story, and it may flesh out some of the racism—institutional and personal—that this story illuminates. Cody Hall, the 7 Flames director, was a prominent figure at Standing Rock. If this has been intentionally omitted by the author, please feel free to delete my comment.

I’m glad you said on the whole. Canada has it’s own skeletons when it comes to treatment of First Nations people.

Do you feel better now? Proud? Because if so, you can essentially read your comment right back to yourself.

Haha! What took me 20 seconds warranted such a longwinded thoughtful response from you. You’re the real justice warrior here, I bow in awe.

“Why are you people always talking about race?” asked the racist.

He’s Johnny Football, not Johnny Tape. Fuck’s sake.

If this country has proven anything throughout its history, it’s that its capacity to treat Native Americans with callousness and cruelty knows no bounds.

Quick searching didn’t yield a twitter for Corey Mitchell, but I really want to ask this guy if he really is a bigoted, malicious asshole or just completely incompetent at his job.

I’ve never lived in the south, but I would challenge any city in the country to be more openly racist than the Black Hills/Rapid City area is towards natives. It’s the same city that a few years ago at a minor league hockey game featured grown adults cursing at and dumping beer on native schoolchildren while “go back…

Hillbillies like Mitchell have operated pretty much with impunity because 1) most of the backwater US is racist as fuck 2) media attention on stuff like this is few and far between. This is one of the few times when you can say, god bless the internet for shining a light on racist twats like this

“Why are you always talking about race?” asked the racist.

Sometimes I see a headline like this and think... there must be some kind of wrinkle in the fuller story to complicate this tidy narrative. Surely there must be more to this story than the headline indicates.

This is not one of those times.
