Sean Dyche has said Everton must be “ready for what comes next” after it emerged the club will be punished again this season if found guilty of another breach of Premier League profit and sustainability rules.
Everton were recently deducted 10 points by an independent commission, the biggest sporting sanction in Premier League history, for exceeding permitted losses of £105m over a three-year period by £19.5m in 2021-22.

Under regulations introduced before this season, all Premier League clubs must submit annual accounts before 31 December (instead of March) and the process for dealing with a standard breach will be fast-…

Meet Dion Robinson: a 43-year-old ex-con and soon to be former assistant football coach in a youth football league in West Park, Florida— weird. Specifically, Robinson has been arrested over 12 times and has pled no contest to charges including "cocaine delivery, indecent exposure and unlawful use of a false name" and served time for robbery, according to state records. What you see in the video is the immediate aftermath of a disputed call in a game between Robinson's West Park Saints and the Miramar Patriots made by our victim, Andrew Keigans. Keigans threw a flag for unsportsmanlike against the Saints for some off-color remarks made by the coaching staff and things went a little haywire. After he threw the flag, Keigans turned around an bumped one of the players …
Some people are fans of the Tampa Bay Bucs. But many, many more people are NOT fans of the Tampa Bay Bucs. This 2019 Deadspin NFL team preview is for those in the latter group. Read all the previews so far here. Your team: Tampa Bay Bucs. Your 2018 record: 5-11. This after starting a red hot 2-0. No playoff appearances since 2007. Only the Raiders allowed more points. Every game these Bucs played was, on average, a double-digit defeat. The highlight of last season for this beached outrigger of a franchise was when Ryan Fitzpatrick dressed up as DeSean Jackson. BAD BOY 4LYFE Honestly? Looked fucking great on him. A natural fit for America’s Ivy Bro. Almost enough to make you forget the time he tried to throw a forward pass from 10 yards past the line of scrimmage. Oh, can you NOT d…
Congratulations to all the wieners. Mark Halperin (and sidekick John Heilemann), BloombergJust about the only good thing you can say about Mark Halperin (and John Heilemann) is that they managed to swindle a lot of money from prickly billionaire Michael Bloomberg, who hired the two of them in 2014 for a reported million bucks a year (each) to perform insider politics coverage for his financial services news company that occasionally dabbles in other media and topics until the boss remembers they don’t make as much money as selling expensive financial news terminals to finance people. Halperin (and Heilemann) were let go at the end of this year, their flagship political gab show, Hey, We’re Talkin’ Politics Here!, an ignominious failure even by the low standards of cable news poli…
And once again, Roger Federer is out prematurely at a Grand Slam. Federer was upset in the 4th round at the U.S. Open tonight to Tommy Robredo, 7-6, 6-3, 6-4. It was really sad to watch. The mystique of Roger Federer is vanishing as each crushing Grand Slam loss mounts one over the next. On break points tonight, Federer was an astoundingly poor 2 of 16. On some of those break point chances, he was bad as he's ever looked—backhands hit listlessly into the net, forehands ugly and wide. "I missed so many opportunities," Federer said after the match. Thanks to a hours-long rain delay this afternoon, the Federer-Robredo match was sent over to Louis Armstrong, the U.S. Open's no. 2 court. It was the first time Federer had to play there in seven years. The stadium had …
Some people are fans of the Indianapolis Colts. But many, many more people are NOT fans of the Indianapolis Colts. This 2012 Deadspin NFL team preview is for those in the latter group. Read the other Why Your Team Sucks 2012 previews here. 1. Finally, you really do suck. God, you have no idea how long I've been waiting for the Colts to regress back to being the bumbling flyover team they always had been before Peyton Manning arrived. Before Manning, the Colts were a perpetually shitty team whose lone defining quality was that they were located in the wrong town. They were a running indictment of how naked avarice and a blind drunk owner can diminish a sport. Even through the Manning years, it was hard to forget that the Baltimore Colts were uprooted in the dead of night and then se…

It's been graduation time all across the country lately, which means that star-fucking class chairs from every college around have invited whatever famous people they can throw $30,000 at to come on in and give some bullshit commencement speech in 12,000-degree heat.

data-mm-id=”_c6z7u1hhw”>A fun game for Coastal elites to play is, "Would a Crowded Subway Train Bother Taking Notice of This?" Living in a bustling city quickly dulls the senses and almost completely eradicates surprise. The bizarre becomes the norm and it takes a special strain of oddness to even register. For instance, it's Ronnie Woo Woo in Chicago and the guy who wears a cat on his head around in SoHo in New York City. Your results may vary.But friends, we can all agree that seeing some person carrying around half a book and feverishly consuming its contents as if it were normal encroaches into See Something, Say Something territory. And yet, here's Alex Christofi, a senior editor at Oneworld News, gleefully tweeting out that he cuts his big books in half to mak…
