Brought to you by the same people behind popular celebrity and media gossip site Gawker.com, Deadspin keeps you up on the latest news and "current events" in the sports world. Sample items from last week: a picture of sloppy drinker (and apparent Jack Daniels fan) Kyle Orton and choice tidbits from Barry Bonds' online journal, including a photo of Barry getting chummy with the venerable Michael Bolton.

Says the site's editor, Will Leitch: "It's strange how differently the mainstream media treats athletes than they do other celebrities. People raise their hands and say, 'Hey, he's a baseball player; don't bring up the off-field stuff'Why? Nobody says, 'Hey, let's just let Tom Cruise's movies speak for themselves and leave his personal life out of it' And why would they? That's ludicrous."
