So with Deland McCullough recently being hired by Notre Dame, Sarah Spain’s in depth story about him (which I believe won her a Peabody award and a Sports Emmy for the accompanying E:60 story) has recently come back into the spotlight. She was on a recent Notre Dame podcast to discuss the story and talked about a video of her at the Super Bowl a few years ago with Deland McCullough’s mom. I kinda wanted to see the video so I searched twitter for “Sarah Spain super bowl” and it was basically nothing but “stoolie” losers harassing her for some super bowl stunt she did early in her career after she criticized Barstool for being sexist.

First off, Sarah rules, she is awesome.

Second, I can't find that Super Bowl video anywhere, but I do remember it happening. I think it was Gatorade who got the tickets for them, maybe search for that?

The fundraiser was also a sly way for Portnoy to endlessly complain that the evil leftists were shutting down businesses of hard-working Americans despite none of those businesses actually being shut down. They also just dropped it once he stopped getting media attention for it.

The official account of NFL Tackle Phil Loadholt.

Let's talk Football.
Exactly. It's just infuriating how they wear their right wing credentials on their loving sleeve then also like to use the classic cop-out excuse of "we're just joking around" but also "sports/the world is too PC."

It's just getting tiring. I loving hate anyone associated with Barstool.

Iirc after everyone quit, GMG shipped Deadspin to Chicago and made it a part of The Onion so they're probably in the separate Onion Union that also covers the corpse of the AVClub.

This is extra funny because they’re now shipping the AV Club to LA. Real easy to destroy a workforce with leverage if you just keep shuffling them around until everyone who has any desire to fight is gone

slash not hiring people who would be covered under the union, IIRC. (I might not remember correctly)

in any case, Vichy Deadspin has proven itself to be mediocre to bad at the best of times, and observing the GMG picket line is pretty easy otherwise. Solidarity to the GMG Union, they absolutely deserve to have the other side work in good faith.

Whether or not this winds up going anywhere is another story entirely but yeah Bauer's likely going to include everything regardless of who owned the site when it was written.
