Subscribed the hell out of Defector. This is the sole piece of good news 2020 has brought me. Edit: as a literal Edmontonian this made me laugh: https://twitter.com/DefectorMedia/status/1288245282417803264?s=19 Albino Squirrel fucked around with this message at 02:10 on Jul 29, 2020 |

excited for the ex-deadspin folks. The Defector is a kind of dumb name, but then again so was deadspin.

I’ve never plugged my credit card info into a website so fast Who cares if there are no American sports? Deadspin had phenomenal articles about tennis, cricket, distance running, kite surfing, lovely New Jersey Boardwalk t-shirts. I’m just excited to read articles from my favorite writers again.

I'd pay just for 3 months of Roth and Burnenko writing about the wet president.

Deadspin is definitely the sports website that needs sports the least but people seem dead set on attempting to have them anyway so there should be plenty to write about both in terms of game and in how badly leagues are loving this up.

I don't think that group of people will have any issues coming up with things to write about regardless of what happens with sports in the near term. I'm about as casual of a sports fan as there is and I visited Deadspin (and then UTSB) several times per day.

That's probably somewhere around $800k between the 69 and 99 dollar options. I'm hoping that the site can pay decent salaries to the employee owners and survive.

I signed up for the reader tier because none of the perks appealed to me. Drew confirmed it will have all of his usual bits.

I wonder if the Reader tier will allow you to star comments. I won't necessarily comment much but I do enjoy bestowing good comments with a star.
