If you know Dan Le Batard. You know he’s very Miami orientated. He occasionally writes for the Miami Herald and hosts his show Highly Questionable on ESPN with his dad who is a die hard Miami fan.
Le Batard is known for his subtle shots at topics/people he doesn’t agree with. This. Is not so subtle. It’s so far from subtle that ESPN has suspended Le Batard For it. ESPN gave Yahoo! Sports a statement.
Dan Le Batard will be off the air for two days, returning Monday.
His recent stunt does not reflect ESPN’s standards and brand. Additionally, we were not made aware of his plans in advance.
Dan Le Batard is clearly a Maverick and likes to have his opinion known. And sometimes that gets you into trouble. According to ESPN this was a bit too much.
