Ben Roethlisberger introduced the players’ three choices

“after refusing to violate hospital policy”

Not watching something is like, the easiest fucking thing to do, don’t know where all this hand-wringing comes from.

“Offensive explosion in his 30s”? His age-20 and -21 seasons were historically good for that age, his age-25 season was his best ever, and (like everyone and their mother) had excellent seasons at 27, 28, 29. Yeah he’s better in his 30s - that’s what great players do. Especially players who make it as regulars in the…

As a Rockets fan, I am heartily supporting the new Knicks front office to be successful in their Melo obstructionism.

Worse than offering ludicrously below-market salaries, Gilbert also screwed Griffin out of a decent next gig when he refused to let him interview for jobs that were available, like Atlanta, Milwaukee, and maybe others. (Milwaukee with Griff would’ve been really interesting) A real dick move when he had no intention…

There’s really nothing remarkable here. Lots of athletes take time out of their schedule to visit retarded children.

The fact so many people dislike Russell Wesbrook absolutely baffles me. We have an athletic freak the likes of which we’ve only seen a handful of times in the league, and he really, really cares about winning. On top of that, he seems interesting and thoughtful, and dresses in ways you wish you could if you didn’t…

3 cool men doing manly stuff like drinking beer and watching manly football in their man cave... because men are so primal that they spend their time in a fuckin’ cave! I don’t know how this term became popular, but I cringe every time I hear it.

Yeah, those young dudes with trendy haircuts, sleeve tats, and a tastefully appointed loft are the ones fighting to keep the Redskins name. That casting agent was trolling the SuperPAC.

Don’t even give them that. Everyone who voted for Donald Trump may not be racist, but they sure as fuck don’t care that he’s racist or that a ton of his supporters are, so they might as well be racist.

The media jumped on the reporting about Dao because the info is available and they need to keep a steady stream of related articles out there to get the clicks. They’d have to do actual legwork and put in some time to track down the officers who dragged the guy off the plane.

Luckily, the row behind the Sixers’ bench is already set up to acccomodate seven footers in street clothes.

And that’s why “moderates” are absolutely as culpable for the current state of affairs as the left and the right. They’re so desperate to maintain their illusion that “both sides are the same” that they see the right’s fears that Obama would do things that they completely made up themselves and the left’s fears that…

There are three other factors that need to be considered. First gerrymandering inherently makes it so that more extreme/partisan candidates get elected. The Republicans are better at it, and have more heavily gerrymandered seats, so they’re the ones who get pushed further out of control. Which feeds back into the…

Great article. I refuse to watch it, just like I avoid most of the other violent spectacles against black bodies but this is a conversation black America needs to have with itself. We can’t demand everyone else’s respect when we don’t treasure and respect our girls with the same ferocity as white folks (well maybe…

I love Deadspin.

I thought Al Kaline water was mostly bourbon.

Oladipo, Adams and Kanter are all above average players and Gibson is an average starter. Adams with pretty much any other PG would average 15 and 12 and Oladipo 17, Kanter 20. Salonis is a keeper and mcbuckets can shoot the three, good enough for at least a quality bench player. And Gibson, Adams and Oladipo play…

Last night summed up why he isn’t the MVP. He took almost half of his team’s shots as the PG, effectively freezing out his teammates, and then completely choked the game away in the last minute. In the last four games he has lost to Portland twice, Dallas and Phx. Lebron with Earl Boykins as his starting PG might lose…
