So, I made the mistake of clicking on one of those silly FP sidebar articles. You know, the ones that take you to Gizfrodo and BanalityFair and all those other ugly-stepsister sites.
Of course, after reading the article I was faux enraged at some of the authors takes , and felt the need to post. Mistake number two.
And then....I realized that there was nowhere for me to ‘Start the Discussion’. Hmm....another day on Kinjaaa...something is broken. But wait, there must have been SOMEONE who was already enraged. Where are the comments???
I refreshed. Nothing.
I clicked the title of the post. Nothing.
And then I realized....I was in the afterlife! I was on DEADSPIN 2.0 !!! It’s back!!!
At first I though maybe I was somewhere else, but no, there was a huge banner ad that was twice the size of the header flag (Steaks anyone??). It’s def Kinjie!
Where was the infamous Kellen Winslow post that sat as the lead article for months. What is all this new ‘content’????
AND WHERE THE FUCK IS THE COMMENT SECTION?????
Well, there isn’t one. They actually want people to read the posts. No commenting. BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!!!!

Right, they came back at a time when there are no sports. And they still don’t allow comments.

Yep, this is the new Chicago-based non-union Deadspin. I’ve felt no desire to read it, and the fact they still have the comments off tells me that’s the correct choice.

My header was filled with GTIs and AMGs until the ‘Rona came ‘ round.
Now it’s masks and food delivery.

I’m not sure about an actual website, but “unDeadspin” on twitter has a bunch of posts from former writers. It’s really good. And comments are turned on :)

The comment section was the best part of Deadspin, not much point having it without the comments - not much of the kinjaverse had an entertaining audience, but that place did.
