Sorry for the hijack but has anyone else seen what’s happening at Deadspin right now? If you’re interested, check comments here:

I’m taking “This site is dead before Jamboroo comes out on Thurs.”

No doubt, The NCAA is going to pay athletes now and Deadspin is mute.  Not a good look.

I had one and it was dope. Black with the silver roof. Everything worked, everyone fit, even the analog clock was a cool touch. It was comfortable, it was painted well (if that makes sense... just very easy to keep detailed and shiny), and it could scoot with the EB.

Ahh dangit you’re right.  Good point.  

Please David never stop crawling under stuff.  Great article man.

Well, this article was successful in piling hundreds of non-deadspin readers into one place to nitpick at each other’s views. 100%.

I see what you mean 100%. But I think there’s a difference because the kids were chaperoned by grown ups. They had that protective layer of supposed “supervision.

+1 Squee agrees

It’s the “He Started It!” argument writ large.  And unless there’s physical violence about to occur, that argument is never defensible. 

This right here is what had my dander up when it happened. The parents and the school administrators fucking straight up failed.

I’m finishing a book right now called “Confederates in the Attic.” It was published 20-some years ago. It’s an upsetting journey through the south, and the bummer is that in a lot of ways what’s going on now is magnified and enhanced compared to how it was then.

I didn’t see the game, did he suffer an impact that resembles an injury like that happening?

McFly I was thinking this the whole dang article.  Good stuff.

My brother usually tunes in with 50 to go just so he can see if stuff like this happens.  Trying to watch a full race is a mission.

+1...  Brother!!!

I conduct training at various places, and when I see a table that looks like this I think “Yikes this facility is a mess from the leadership down to environmental services.”

I agree with you.  A good example is the QB that beat Flacco yesterday.

Spot on.  I was just thinking this is something that Joel McHale and staff would have presented on Talk Soup back in the day.

Whoa, hope you don’t mind me stealing this.  That’s gotta punch to it that I’m a fan of.
