Deadspin acts like professionals after being scooped
Stupid Sports Blog — ... As A.J. Daulerio explains in his post that served as both a warning to the employees of ESPN that every rumor in Deadspin's inbox was about to be published and a nice platform for stomping his feet and crying, he's got every right in the world to do it. Why? ...

ESPN Horndog Dossier: Deadspin, ESPN Fight Raises Legal Questions
FanHouse — ... Earlier today Deadspin editor A.J. Daulerio went to war with ESPN in retaliation for stonewalling from inside Bristol about the Steve Phillips affair. In a post that went up at noon eastern, Daulerio unloaded on ESPN for denying any impropriety on Phillips's behalf when he asked them about it in September. In that post, he threatened to unleash holy hell on ESPN for sexual harassment scandals that have gone heretofore unreported. Over the next several hours, Deadspin, the largest sports blog on the internet, reported on ...

Is Deadspin Making ESPN A Sympathetic Figure?
SPORTSbyBROOKS — ... . As Deadspin indicated, ESPN’s refusal to divulge more information than necessary about the Phillips case a month before it broke was enough justification to air dirty laundry about the rest of the sexual shenanigans they’d heard about the WWL. It merited a post titled “ESPN: The Worldwide Leader In Sexual Depravity.” Unequivocal, that. Deadspin Threat (Is that so?) What ensued? A grand total of ...

The campus in Bristol, Connecticut is quickly turning into a frat house, and not just any frat house, but the one on campus that has all the guys who don’t really pay dues, don’t wear popped polo shirts and don’t care about “brotherhood”, but just like to get drunk and hunt down ladies.  Everyone has heard about Harold Reynolds and his problems, then it has come out that the married Steve Phillips had a little fling with another employee (unfortunatly pictured above), and NOW ...

Deadspin Embarrasses Itself With ESPN Posts
The Sporting Blog — When the bizarre and sordid tale of Steve Phillips and an ESPN assistant broke on Wednesday, everyone covered it. A quick mid-day scan yesterday showed it in the headline sections of just about every major sports site. (The only one where I didn't see it was CBSSports.com.) But there were police reports, statements from the parties involved and even a 911 call from Steve Phillips' wife, Marni. And then Deadspin tossed up this post. On September 9, we received a tip. Subject: "S. Phillips." The contents? "Rumor ...

Kicking 'Em While They're Down
No, You're a Towel — ... If there's one person more upset with the New York Post coverage than Hundley, it's Deadspin. Deadspin wanted to break the story themselves but ESPN wouldn't help them out in their pursuit. Once the New York Post broke it first, the floodgates of hell opened.

Steve Phillips -- Fired
Hoops and Other Pop Culture — ... Phillips' fate was sealed not by anything he did (after all, Mike Tirico basically stalked a woman at ESPN and got a 1 week suspension in 1992) but rather by the fact that the guy at Deadspin got so pissed that ESPN lied to them about Phillips that Deadspin ran an entire feature on sex at the Worldwide Leader in sexual harassment, er, I mean, sports. http://deadspin.com/5386749/espn-the-worldwide-leader-in-sexual-depravity ...

Tom Brady thinks Dwight Freeney is the best defensive player in the NFL
Stampede Blue — ... Since everything Tom Brady says is gold, and since Tom Brady can say and do no wrong for both New England Patriots fans and the horny, sexually depraved higher-ups at ESPN, I guess Tom Brady's recent comments about Dwight Freeney might earn the All-Pro defensive end some props over players like Jared Allen and DeMarcus Ware. It was toward the end of a wandering interview on Boston radio station WEEI last week that the question was posed: "Who is the most intimidating player you face?" "Dwight ...
