Deadspin
Watered  down by synergy and solipsism, sports news has taken a turn for the worse over the past few years. With the corporate behemoth of ESPN attempting to control both the medium and the message, many sports fans feel shut out. But to the rescue comes the latest tentacle of the Gawker media empire! Sports fans can rejoice -- Deadspin throws high heat and doesn't care who it brushes back. Eschewing the faux hipness of the boys from Bristol, the site links to snarky takes on sports from across the Web. But it also provides more than just limp links, with an offering of reasoned reviews and informed opinions on the world of sports. Throw in a healthy dash of rumor and innuendo and you'll find that the mix is quite a parlay for parched fans. If you're over the hackneyed opinions of sports journalists, we suggest this refreshing receptacle of sporting news. (in Sports) |
