I would hope that bloggers get the same treatment. That's why the real key is not about not exposing yourself to being outed as a shitball creep - it's about not being a shitball creep.

What a fucking joke this competition is.

Shocking - SHOCKING, I say - that the man currently in a position that has been held for no longer than eight years by any of his 36 predecessors - and only twice has a tenure been that long (yeah, I fucking looked that shit up) - might not place the long-term health of a domestic league over the immediate improvement…

I love the almost complete lack of people putting their arms up when he takes the shot. Almost everyone is watching the play like, "Awwww fuck. Here we go."

I'm not sure that tie is long. I think he's got his pants hiked up over his navel.

Close the contest, pack up the banners and send the DJ home. This is the only way the words "domestic abuse" can ever be funny. Nice work.

I was getting physically agitated with your post, thinking it was completely in earnest, right up until the penultimate word. Well done.

There's your True Detective, Season 2 cast right there.

Thanks for checking in, Lefty. Love you in those Enbrel ads.

There are like, dozens of books that explain that very phenomenon. Anyone who has even the most elementary grasp of the picture of international sport realizes that a very large reason for soccer's popularity is how simple it is to play. Did you just wake up from some kind of coma or something? If so, I apologize. Let…

Jesus Christ, shut the fuck up.

I hate you. +1.

I'd say Sadie processed the deep, inescapable sadness of the human condition just fine. The rest of us are just monsters.

So wait, MLB should not post video of noteworthy moments - video it knows people are going to want to see? It's not like this happened in a locker room. It was part of the broadcast, and the league covers itself (quite nicely, all things considered), so why wouldn't it show the clip? Is Deadspin endorsing violence by…

I just wanted to point out the fun abbreviation of the title in my Chrome tab for this:

"Owners voted against moving the kickoff from the 35-yard-line to the 40."

It's different because violence is inherent in the game of football, and a dude getting knocked out happens a dozen times a year. This isn't supposed to happen in a baseball game, and when players see a peer/friend go down like that, it's awful hard to refocus on the game. It wasn't canceled to help Chapman get better…

Not defending the idiots shown above at all, but Fox (Sports) did a piss-poor job of explaining what it was doing. I noticed several stretches this afternoon where the rain delay crawl wasn't on the screen, with no other signifier about it being the 2013 race (at least not that I could spot in the restaurant I was…

Uh, no. Most hockey benches have it available. Lots of hockey players use it as a quick pick-me-up. One sentence in Wikipedia does not a fact make.

These are all great and entertaining, but I can't help but think about the kind of person who says, "OK, I'm gonna record myself watching TV." I feel like if I'm at a party and there's one person recording the TV/audience instead of participating, nobody likes that person. But it's doubly stupid in the case of the…
