Here's a nice, terrifying memory from Lomas Brown—the former NFL player who now says things on ESPN for money—regarding his former Detroit teammate Bennie Blades. Brown told Dan Le Batard and Le Batard's father today that Blades was the "craziest teammate" he ever had, and then shared this special anecdote: More »

He's baaaaacck. Dan Le Batard returned from his year-long sabbatical today, and if this profile of Jim Leyritz is any indication, his mind is sufficiently cleared. It's long, poignant and about Jim Leyritz, but still, take out a few minutes to read it. You're not doing anything better. [Miami Herald] More »

Gold medal winning swim swordsman Michael Phelps is still suffering through his whirlwind media tour and did a painfully uncomfortable on-air interview with 790 The Ticket's Dan Le Batard earlier today. Le Batard, acting in full-on instigator mode, tried to engage Phelps into some playful q-and-a'ing which he wasn't biting on whatsoever. The conversation ending question: "Do you go into the nightclub with these Kellog's products and drop them on the floor with your face on them?". Phelps then not-so-smoothly tried to end the interview...only to unsuccessfully hang up the phone. Instead, listeners were treated to Phelps grumbling about how "ridiculous" the interview was and complaining about how "that guy was a joke." Granted, this post-Olympic life of constantly being asked about what it feels like to be Michael Phelps must be wearing on him and everyone tires of sports radio guys, but there has to be a point coming soon enough where everyone tires of Phelps, right? After those gold medals stop being shiny and the milk mustache drys off, we're left with a lanky, trophy-headed guy with the personality of piece a corn warbling about swimming with underprivileged kids in a YMCA pool. He's a real star. Interview with Michael Phelps [790 The Ticket] ******* Tonight: Matt Sussman returns and is ready to go all Lil' Wayne on your asses as he live blogs the USC/Oregon State blowout from the comforts of his yoga ball. Tomorrow: Rainy day madness on a Friday and other goodness. Thanks for your continued support of Deadspin, now go wipe the Skeets off those pillowcases. Company is coming over soon. More »

• Why do they call her the "Super" intern?: The naughty boys at Busted Coverage manage to take an innocent picture of Dan LeBatard posing with his "super" intern, Christina, and force you to think unclean thoughts. The picture of Miami Herald writer Greg Cote does not have the same effect. For now. [Busted Coverage] More »

On his radio show Friday, ESPN fella Dan LeBatard, because he's out in Miami and apparently no one in Bristol listens out there, had a few choice words to say about the Woody Paige, "Cold Pizza" sexual harassment case. He called ESPN "filled with sexual harassment" and said "it's actually funny." And we agree: It is! More »

Congratulations to Dan Le Batard, who you say has the most terrifying ESPN: The Magazine mugshot. It was a tight race, with Le Batard — who was joking about the mugshots and this poll on his radio show yesterday, quoting from several of our great commenters — edging out Stuart Scott (who actually got our vote).

Yesterday, we tried to figure out what was going on with Bill Simmons' ridiculous mugshot in ESPN: The Magazine. Well, now we've got copies of all four main mugshots in the magazine, and they're inexplicable. And horrifying. Take a look at them below, and let us know which one makes you want to cry the least.

We've never met Dan Le Batard, but this is how we picture him: green makeup, pointy hat, always carries a broom. He's looking into a crystal ball, wherein a typical Miami Herald reader is stuck, motioning helplessly, calling: "Dorothy? Where are you?" Le Batard cackles, and flying monkeys then fill the skies. And the next morning, his column appears on newsstands. Or something like that. The most common complaint about Le Batard is that he's so aggressively pro-athlete that even his most plaid columns feel like they should come with pom-poms. But let's go to the vital statistics: More »
