It's like perfect storm of hipster shitlib pop culture commentary, neckbeard NFL/MLB statistical analysis, and unreadable 10,000 word Bill Simmons NBA screeds.

Also the name is stupid and the layout sucks

Deadspin has become shit. I hate the layout changes. It tries to hard to be the anti-espn and whiteknighting issues. Its taken on bad characteristics of its sister sites. It is 180 with its manti teo and other leaks thought. Mailbag is usually good.

Yeah their tv guy Andy Greenwald is like the new Alan Sepinwall I guess. They're both trying to be the Roger Ebert of tv but there isn't enough quality content for them to write about. They're fucked when Breaking Bad and Mad Men go off the air because nothing else requires their critical insight. The tv recap/critical culture really only exists because of golden era tv shows.

Agreed on the website design and most of the articles. On the other hand, it is free.

Solid authors are Jonah Keri, Zach Lowe (although he is overly obsessed with youtube clips), and Andy Greenwald on the pop culture side. Simmons is amusing in short doses. Dave Jacoby and Jalen Rose are good on podcasts. I'm not enamored with anyone else. Bill Barnwell on the NFL is completely insufferable.
