THIS IS WHAT THE PLAYOFFS ARE ALL ABOUT!!!

I never understood what makes people jackasses for charging the real worth of tickets.

Because they're playing New England, and the rest of the country supports their efforts to restrict an influx of Massholes?

...Shawn Marion changing it to "Matrix: The Last 2"...

God damnit I forgot one of the shitty nicknames

Please, as if Saints getting mauled before an arena of rabid spectators is news these days.

At least they tried to keep it local. I was told non-jokingly that India now has a budding sports journalism business keen on hiring bright-eyed American upstarts. I wonder if the Mumbai Mirror needs an MLB editor!

Hi. I'm seeing a lot of comments. Please remove me from your list.

"in those days it wasn't uncommon to turn on ESPN—at any time of day—and find sub-tertiary programming of all sorts, from Australian Rules Football to strongman competitions."

I can't believe it's Rocca who irrationally votes for Hideo, yet it's Le Batard who gets Nomo vote ...

University of Chicago: Can you believe these upstarts at Northwestern are laying claim to the title of Chicago's team? How outrageous!

And now with Rutgers and Maryland coming, the B1G will lead the nation in "Schools who are somewhat near a large Metropolis."

The Cincinnati Bearcats also made unis in honor of their hometown, but crowds found the Skyline too nauseating to stomach.

You are correct. From that article:

Jose de Jesus Ortiz invites fans to vote on his ballot and help fill it out.

I respect him more BECAUSE he did it knowing it had a high probability of affecting his job. Most wouldn't put their money where their mouth is on the issue.

Ooh!!! Ooh!!! And The Classical! Don't forget The Classical!!!

Writers refusing to accept the fact that Deadspin has launched itself into the premier echelons of sports journalism is a refusal to accept the status quo. I only visit ESPN.com for scores. I barely read anything outside of here and Grantland. If people like Peter Gomez think I give a shit about his 2 minute…

Dan made a mockery of the HoF voting by showing that a crowd of pun-making sarcastic internet commenters put out a better ballot than many of the "experts". I can understand why they would be defensive.
