When everyone is falling all over themselves to eulogize and wax poetic about someone who died, it's not out of line to remind people what an insane dick that guy was. Read more

Despite me being team #LordeIsOld, I genuinely like that record. And I agree with Harvilla that "Royals" is one of the weakest songs on it. "400 Lux" forever. Read more

Trivia answer: that was the piece that made a young Tommy Craggs want to become a sportswriter. Read more

Not that much! Less because of any "I miss the old Deadspin nostalgia!" and more because I honestly cannot figure out how to use it most of the time. The other day I got in an argument with some guy about Yasiel Puig, and trying to navigate the conversation made me feel like I was inside of an Escher drawing. Read more

When I was like 13 a kid in a little league baseball game I was playing in took a fastball to the face. This wasn't just any fastball, though, it was from by our pitcher who could throw harder than any other kid in our county. I think he gave up, like, 6 hits all year. Read more

Stacks and stacks of books. There are always books and they never stop arriving. I will never read any of these books. Read more

We decided to improve the clip by adding Yakety Sax.

Yes, you lowing moron, that is exactly what I am telling you. Different leagues have different policies when it comes to taking video. The NBA, for example, could not give less of a shit about people ripping video and putting it on the internet. The NFL used to not care that much, but has gotten more persnickety… Read more

Listen, fuck face, I would have loved to embed the video of the highlight, but the clip on MLB's site is currently "not available for sharing." And if we rip the video and post it on our own, we get a cease and desist letter. So take it up with them. Read more

"You're attacking my examples rather than my argument...." Yeah, we're done here. Read more

You are not making any sense. For one, Kurt Warner had a hall-of-fame career. Matt Hasselbeck was a very solid starter. Trent Dilfer won a Super Bowl. To say that they are "boderline NFL QBs" in the same sense that Tim Tebow was is just dumb. Read more

I'm not following. We have written plenty about McCutchen, Trout, Harper, and many other exciting baseball players. Aside from that, though, you can't compare Puig to Tebow because Puig actually is an extremely talented and interesting athlete, whereas Tim Tebow is not all that talented or all that interesting. So,… Read more

People make this comment a lot whenever we write about a player we like, but nobody ever bothers to explain why it is true. So I'm gonna ask you to do that. Explain yourself. Read more

Yeah, that's the shitty thing. I really, really want him to just at least get to a place where he can maintain an OBP of, like, .310. The world needs to see Billy Hamilton steal bases. Read more

To be fair, I did write out the whole chart by hand first, but scanning it into the post wasn't working all that well because my handwriting is hard to read. But yeah, it's a good thing we have Sam. Read more

I don't really have a huge problem with Mattingly benching Puig for being late—although I think it works against his own best interests by throwing more chum to the columnists—I was just trying to point out how silly this column is. Read more
