That’s how you’re supposed to do it, Moises!

I was expecting ‘athlete funny’ rather than ‘actual funny’, but these aren’t half bad.

Well watching them sweep a 4 game series against the Twins last week like they were playing a charity game against a Legion ball team, you can’t convince me they won’t simply win-out the rest of the season. I think it’s theirs to lose at this point.

At 0:16 in the last video I swear I thought that guy was going to pull off his hair as a wig and throw it to the ground.

7-6 (7-1), 6-7 (12-10), 6-4, 6-3

That score alone tells the story of a great player just running out of steam.

You know, I guess I’m overstating it... it could’ve been worse. But most of the bad vibes I got from it were from the realization that she only lived there until she was 3 years old, at which point her shady stage parents moved the family to California to turn her into a star, and probably never gave a second thought…

I don’t know anything about this backstory, but I can confirm that the Judy Garland Museum is one of the most depressing historical tourist sites I’ve ever visited, and the entire place reeked of desperation and melancholy. Even more than the average small town historical tourist site.

I came down to the comments to post this very recommendation! Spiral cutting the dog seems like a silly novelty at first, but it’s amazing. You get a nice crisp ‘bark’ on much more of the dog, and none of your condiments go sliding off any one side. It’s the best.

Just to add one more thought (to my own comment)... I went to a game in St. Louis a while back, at their old Busch Stadium, maybe 2004 or 2005, before Cardinal-fan-bashing became en vogue (or at least as widespread, since this was still Leich-era Deadspin, and the sports-blog-internet was still in its very early…

You know, I’d grown pretty weary of the internet’s (or Deadspin’s, specifically) constant mockery of St. Louis baseball people and their supposedly smug baseball opinions and opinions of themselves. “Chill out,” I’d think, “nobody’s actually doing that, they just have a good team and a passionate fanbase and you’re…

Since this review is on a Deadspin-adjacent blog, it should be mentioned that Bill Pohlad is the son of longtime Minnesota Twins owner Carl Pohlad, brother of current owner Jim Pohlad, as well as member of the Twins executive board. The Pohlads are a big, big money family in these parts, which is how Bill got into the…

Bob Ley did a great interview on the Men In Blazers podcast yesterday (a special episode just talking about this FIFA situation). Even at that point he said he’d pretty much been working around the clock for 36 hours. MiB is always worth a listen, but the talk with Ley yesterday was particularly great.

Great catch. Get this out of the grays!

I won’t rest until they make they touchdown scorer kick the PAT. Maybe next year.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m on board with most of the sentiment here, and it drives me crazy that seemingly every school is so quick to jump in bed with Nike on this stuff. Throwing out the baby with the bathwater for the sake of some slick new merch. Perhaps the process of choosing the ‘agency’ (if you want to throw Nike…

Not to defend the practice of Nike essentially commandeering the brands of professional and amateur sports organizations on every level (which is annoying at best and nefariously corrupt at worst), but on a basic level of corporate branding and design, the idea of keeping things under wraps until it’s finished is…

For what it’s worth, I had no idea that wasn’t just a commonly used phrase. I’ve heard it a thousand times in conversation or writing. Whether a pro wrestler coined it or not, I think it’s way beyond that and just part of common American vernacular now.

“What foods increase in enjoyment the further you get into a serving?”

This might have been covered ad nauseam elsewhere, but are people in the area in agreement that keeping people away from Camden Yards today is a reasonable safety decision? Or is it a playing-it-too-safe overreach? Obviously I’m not from Baltimore, so I don’t know exactly the geography (and current police/protest)…

The writing on that third image starts to get a little Wild... too much switching from reds to Blues.
