Our society pretty much always gives second chances to public figures. Athletes, celebrities, media personalities, etc.

You’re annoyed that an NFL player with a crime of domestic abuse under his belt would have to answer questions about it?

Yeah shitting on teenagers and snickering about their first names based on where they’re from seems kinda wrong and beneath this site’s (usually) progressive ethics.

Wait, NFL teams evaluate QBs fathers? What?

Yes, this 100x over. I feel like a foul is a foul, whether with 5 minutes left in the 1st Q or 5 seconds left in the 4th.

How smart did you think you were typing a comment a 7th grader would leave on a message board from the 90s?

Do we really need Curt Schilling’s social media comments painstakingly explained to us?

Ah yes, using “gay” as a derisive term. This being Gawker Media, I’m sure the site will have no trouble taking him to task.....

And Sam proved all those doubters wrong with his strong performance on the practice squad and CFL.

“Also, the Islanders have made the playoffs three of the last four seasons.”

That was it? That was the “torching”? That’s pretty.... Lame. It was lame.

Good call. No businesses should boycott China and even attempt any form of change there. Instead they should just drop their supposed values at the boarder and worry most about the current currency exchange rate.

I guess this is only considered creepy by Gawker media properties when certain migrant adults go back to high school to pose as teenagers.

Deadspin sure knows how to troll like the best of ‘em.

Does your initial comment place any blame on the perpetrator or just the institution? I am glad you do acknowledge that the adult committing the rape bears responsibility.

So you blame the culture or the adult rapists actually committing the heinous crimes?

You do know she’s merely recapping the reporting that others have already released, right?

“but if a player truly believes he is being treated unfairly by referees because of his race, it’s probably something the NBA should look into.”

Yes. Stay silent about opinions in the comment section of a sports blog, under an article that labels any critic of how boring the end result of these tournaments have become as a “jerkass”.

Guy, this is deadspin. If you say anything negative about a woman/women’s sports, you’re a jerkass bro douche bag. Logic doesn’t have a home here.
