That entire article and not one mention of the women in Aspen with the enormous bush. That was the highlight of the documentary. |

I have clicked on one pop culture column and had no idea what they were saying. I have not clicked on one since. |

We need to rescue Down Goes Brown from that place before he starts writing columns like "Is Patrick Kane the Kanye West of Hockey?" |

As with all major sports websites hockey gets shafted. Zach Lowe is an amazing NBA writer, Jonah Keri does a credible job with baseball and then there are a group of writers who contribute football articles. But for hockey it's just listmania with DGB and Katie Baker. Terrible. |

Has Katie Baker ever had anything memorable to say other than "hey, I like the Rangers"? |

But she worked at Goldman Sachs and went to Yale! And she somehow wound up at Deadspin! What a weird, wacky, and white professional career! |

Gawker's addition of author headshots has somehow confirmed my suspicions that every Gawker employee is an utterly unsufferable trust fund baby. |

I used to wonder why Barry Petchesky has a tattoo in the vicinity of his trachea. I wonder no more: http://deadspin.com/5501429/i-was-there ... ddamn-neck Quote: Those were heady days in March of 2002. Sarah Hughes was America's sweetheart. The war in Afghanistan had just begun. And 50-odd seniors from New York's Stuyvesant High School lit out for a week in Nassau, Bahamas. I'm not surprised that a Gawker writer went to one of the best and most selective public schools in the nation, but I am surprised that he did so and still came out so shitty at writing. |

IB, please tell me you saw Barnwell's piece on Emery. It's magnificently awful. We took a few good whacks at it here, but the more the merrier. |
