In a perfect world, he would have been fired for being so lame and not funny.

I would think that was an intentional shot at Dan Gilbert (cnn.com).

Regular podcast listener here too. I'm normally all for the show's hijinx. Normal sports radio is pretty unbearable to me once I got turned onto Le Batard's show.
But I don't think Dan could have been more insincere with the whole I-don't-really-care-I'm-just-doing-this-for-laughs explanation for this stunt. Why is he denying the butthurt? It's okay, he's a Heat fan. We'd all understand if he'd just be honest about it.
And speaking of insincere, how long has Dan said he doesn't care if he gets fired? If that's the case why did he call off the rest of hus stunts after ESPN slapped him on the wrist?
Can't wait until the radio show is back on the air. I'm eager to hear how they talk about the suspension.
