Deadspin Is Awesome Today
Published 6/26/2008 by Fornelli (noreply@blogger.com) at Foul Balls
I mean, you start the day by posting pictures of me, and the average reader has to wonder, "How can today get any better?" I didn't think it could, but damn it if Deadspin hasn't proven me wrong today. First they actually convinced Bill Simmons to write a post there today ...

SO LONG, LOSER
Published 6/26/2008 at With Leather - Sports news and gossip for your impressionable young children

We just hope there's still plenty of Balls Deep. Congratulations to A.J. and we ...

Published 8/21/2008 by Will Leitch at Deadspin
Frankly, I'm not sure what more more I can say about good ole Buzz. I think we covered everything here and here and here and, at last, here. I mean, what more is there? I suppose I can just leave you with videos, if you were somehow just beamed here. The original: And, of course, the brilliant remix by Mr. Skeets, who has taken over the site today. But is he a Hall of Famer? Seventy five percent is the threshold for induction. Vote below: Polls will be open until next Monday afternoon. Vote as if you just pissed the ...
