58![Of Jimmy Olson, Spittle And The Dying Of The Light [Hey That Went Well]](http://images.ballhype.com/uploads/photos_story/2008/04/30/of_jimmy_olson_spittle_and_the_dying_of_the_light_.jpg)
Here's the important thing to remember about Buzz
Bissinger, and whatever the heck happened on "Costas Now"
about two hours ago: Buzz is not alone. Sure, he might be metaphorically alone, raining spittle on the imaginary demons that clearly haunt ...

For reasons known apparently only to him, Colin
Cowherd of ESPN Radio sicced his listeners to unleash
a DNS attack on The Big Lead, which is now down. Deadspin responds and dares him to try that s*** with them. That could be interesting.

So, here's the YouTube of last night's "Internet
Media" segment from Costas Now. Special thanks go to
Awful Announcing for pulling this together.

Last night, while preparing for today's tournament lunacy,
our phone rang. We didn't have time to answer
it, so 20 minutes later, we checked our messages. It was Bob Costas. He wanted to discuss, on record, his comments from last week. We called him back and talked for about 20 minutes. Samplings of the interview follow.

The Rick Ankiel thing, for Cardinals fans, has
always been about hope. There was hope in 2000,
when we thought we had discovered a 19-year-old Steve Carlton. There was hope in 2001 when we believed a young man could conquer his demons. There was hope ...

t's amazing what a fan with a little
bit of gumption and a lot of spirit can
get away with. Meet the world's biggest, and luckiest, Giants fan. Apparently, this guy, whose name we'll withhold, sneaked into every single place the Giants went before, during and after their ticker tape parade. It's pretty wild; he has pictures of the whole thing here. It's awfully impressive. And here's his ...

This photo, taken in Cabo San Lucas just
a few weeks ago, proves once again that Michael
Jordan , even years after retirement, continues to display the true heart of a champion. You have to admire a guy who isn't afraid to bump and grind while ...

Friday afternoon, we accepted an invitation to MLB.com's
offices in Manhattan for an interview with ... Harold
Reynolds . This is the first SHOTY nominee we've interviewed -- save for the imaginary conversations with Barbaro that go on in our ...

Yesterday, on invitation from the fine folks at
EA Sports, we talked to Wizards zuperstar Gilbert Arenas
at the NBA Store in Manhattan for exactly seven minutes and 16 seconds. Here's a complete, exact transcript of the interview, which was almost entirely about his blog. We didn't take a picture, because we thought asking someone to shoot one would be helplessly dorky.

I have been pursuing Jose, like the Holy
Grail, for three months now, trying to nail him
down for a magazine profile he'd agreed to do in January, partly because, as his lawyer/agent had told me, "Jose's on the balls on his ass," and partly because ...

![Is This The List Of Players Mentioned? [Is This The List?]](http://ballhype.com/media/img/story/154/is_this_the_list_of_players_mentioned_is_this_the_list.jpg)
OK, let's do a little test of the
Internets today: In the last hour, we have been
forwarded a list of players mentioned in the Mitchell Report by about 25 different people. Is this list substantiated? No. Is it from an MLB official? No. Do we have ...

We have no idea why it has taken
eight years for this video to come out ...
but we think it was worth the wait.

If you have attempted to access The Big
Lead over the last 24 hours, the attractive image
above -- good Lord, those rectangles are ENORMOUS ... and they're headed straight for us! -- is all you've been able to see. It's pretty, but it ain't ...

Some of you out there might like Bob
Costas. Some of you might not. We've always been
partial to the guy, not just because he's a St. Louis guy , and not just because he did the intro to the final episode of "Cheers," though that certainly helps. ...

Problem: Nasty bloggers are spreading your 18-year-old pole
vaulting daughter's picture across the Internets . (They can
send all the letters to Ufford they want, but you can still find the picture here and here and about a million other places.) ...

So, you know how Vince Young is on
the cover of Madden 08, and how Chargers fans
breathed deep sighs of relief? Well, according to Darren Rovell at CNBC, LaDainian Tomlinson was supposed to be the cover boy but turned it down.

We had been told The Stephen A. Smith
Heckling Society Of Gentlemen would not be at the
NBA Draft this year. We were wrong; oh, how we were.

One wouldn't think that this would be classified
as "news," necessarily, but we still find it noteworthy,
and kind of sad: Julio Franco has officially announced his retirement. Well, we think so, anyway; the story has only been reported by the official site of the Mexican League, where Franco had been peddling his wares. And it's all in Spanish. We tried translating it through Babelfish, ...

He is the The Natural, he is Young
Musial, he is the alpha, the omega, the beginning,
the end. And, as of today, he is a member of the St. Louis Cardinals . Sources tell us that an announcement that Ankiel has been called up to the big leagues is ...

Ever since Joe Lavin announced he'd bought a
copy of Jose Canseco's Vindicated earlier today , people
-- OK, some people -- have been curious what EXACTLY Canseco said. After the jump, the selections from Vindicated concerning Alex Rodriguez.
