Hey, go die in a fire you ignorant, arrogant piece of shit.

Go fuck yourself.

Serious question: If the Boston pro sports teams have all begun a title drought, how much time will have to pass without a championship before Deadspin stops treating Boston sports fans like they’re assholes for being fans of their favorite teams? If the Vikings ever figure out how to win the Super Bowl, Magary will

I’m genuinely concerned. I read Deadspin every day. I look forward to my free time being occupied by the stories contained herein. So what on earth am I going to do when the Belichick-Brady era ends, the Patriots are average, and Deadspin writers no longer have any ideas?

Right, I think that’s all very well-reasoned. The difference is that powermoves takes any observation of such a situation as a threat, and also as some kind of dereliction of journalistic duty, which ... nope. It’s definitely not the direct fault of the game or the teams or the organizers that the crowd in Boston was

The writer pointed out that the scene at the major was overwhelmingly white and male. At no point did she make any suggestion like “white males, of course, are scum.” She pointed out the lack of diversity. Which, of course, for delicate little flowers like yourself, must be an attack on character. Because deep down,

Uh, I have it, and it’s great. I don’t like using my data to stream shit in the car (I guess I should look at unlimited data, but whatever). The Sirius package means I never have to touch terrestrial radio, which is garbage, unless I want to get my local NPR or a local sports game. The fact that I can listen to a 90's

You seem real mad.

1. It’s rift, not riff. Unless you’re referring to some kind of Belichick-Brady-Kraft vanity band project, which admittedly would be incredible and awful.

I heard about the controversy before I saw the episode, so I expected the daughter to dominate the thing, to be all over it, being annoying. Had that been the case, it would have been pretty lame to call the girl a “pissant,” but I would at least understand the criticism.

I realize this is hardly the most sophisticated analysis, but I couldn’t help but notice that on everything except slices last night, every ball Halep hit sounded like a gunshot. It was so percussive, it seemed intimidating. The fact that she hits the holy crap out of the ball AND places it as well as she did against

It’s a fucking headline. You have about 10-12 words to get people to click. You don’t know shit, stop showing it.

Yes, I understand that, and having been to a curling club I’m familiar. But I’m not really concerned with how Joe’s Curling Club in Waukeegan handles its hogline controversies. On the international level, if a detection system can be used to determine hogline release violations, there’s no reason it can’t also be used

Meanwhile, it might be worth investing in technology—like they have with releasing the rock before the first hogline—that definitively calls out a moving stone being touched

You know the word “opprobrium,” yet your grasp of tense, subject/verb agreement, and general grammar are troubling at best. You, sir/madam, are a syntactical unicorn, and I feel blessed to have shared cyberspace with you.

There’s a pretty decent skate park across the street from my building. I’m getting sad thinking about the combined hours I’ve spent waiting to get out of the car, watching to see just one trick get completed.

So his father was an asshole and he’s an asshole for keeping the promise.

I don’t have a lot to add because this is basically perfect, but I want to second the sentiment about banana chips. They should be so good, and they are so bad.

The Star Spangled Banner sucks and so does your arrogant expectation that taking this much time to insult the authors of a pretty facile blog post makes you some kind of great intellect. All due respect, get bent.

You are rapidly approaching the point at which you have spent more time on this than any of the writers involved in the article.
