Seems like a misleading headline

I thought Deadspin was in favor of collective bargaining. Wasn’t the time for “adjustments to the rule” during negotiations, where the players could easily have said “this is fucking dumb take it out”?

Props for owning this. This sends Theisen soaring in my Deadspin writer power rankings. Watch out Petchesky.

Remember, he got paid for this

I’m not kidding about the Lost-esqueness of that opening scene. Very curious if it’s an intentional nod to the beginning of that show’s second season.

I feel like victim-blaming gets a bad rap. Yes, this seems like the start of a good Deadspin comment. But who leaves valuables in a car for an extended period of time? Could we blame someone if they had left the car unlocked? Could we blame them if they left the door OPEN? If someone leaves their car running with the…

I don’t understand how anything can be below Warriors again defeat Cavaliers. Plus, isn’t Rockets def. Cavs better than Rockets def. Celtics because we get to see more Lebron?

I know we like Nigel Hayes around here, but this idea is ASTONISHINGLY bad. Let some boosters pay the guys if they want to? Yeah, that’s going to end very well, considering how reputable “boosters” are known to be. And not that I really care about impact on small schools, but its pretty naive to say this idea won’t…

Yeah I noticed my comment was gone for a night (and the remaining comments were all glowing). That’s a bad look for them

There is nothing like Gizmodo Media Group on the internet.

“Street politics” is a delightful phrase

I think you might really be surprised how many people plead guilty to crimes they didn’t commit

This is wrong. Your chances of getting a stop (plus a rebound) are probably somewhere around 50%, maybe a little higher if you figure the Celtics hold for the latest possible shot rather than running an optimal set. With a timeout to advance the ball, there’s plenty of time to get a 3 at the other end. It’s not ideal,…

I have to wonder what the premium is on a $1 million policy for a football player who has already broken his neck. Also is there any distinction (for insurance purposes) between “injury renders me unable to play” and “injury makes me not want to play”

You’d think if anyone would let the Jazz fan heckle away it would be Karl Malone’s cousin, God Damn

Can someone help me out? I don’t understand the whole “Swoosh, Michael Jordan wins the game” thing. Is that a thing that people say? I’ve just been yelling KOBE like everyone else

The substance of the football game happens in the review booth; the playing surface on which the outcome of the game is decided is made up of the soft tissues of the review official’s eyeballs.

So, to be clear, the park had been funded before Logan went to the all-robot party, right? Maybe not enough, but some? Obviously they had some pretty convincing hosts at that point. And the entire Logan-William-Dolores adventure of Season 1, which was an expansive adventure, happened before Delos put a dollar into the…

Is the “Dellos” thing an inside joke or something?

Finally, some nuanced thought
