Things I Wouldn't Know If Not For Dan Le Batard

If you're solely familiar with Dan Le Batard from ESPN, I'm sorry. Notwithstanding, Dan is a pretty entertaining radio host. He is basically a cross between Dan Patrick and Will Ferrell. He's smart, but goofy. Mostly goofy. If I have nothing else to do and I'm otherwise able, I'm happy to listen to his show on 790 the Ticket. He is also a beneficiary of the Terrell Owens Get-a-Guy-a-Job-On-National-Television Scholarship Program. I presume Dan is proud to join his elite peers, Michael Irvin and Deion Sanders, by exclusively hosting the Terrell Owens radio show every Friday afternoon.

I think I am going to make this section a feature on my blog. Nothing elaborate and with irregular frequency, I will share the kernels of knowledge I gleam by way of Dan Le Batard. Just so you know he's good for something.

Just the other day I learned:

Scott Van Pelt does scary good impressions of Steven A. Smith and Mel Kiper, Jr. Scary good.
