LeBatard has been a problem for a while. Suspended multiple times from college to the pros. He may be OK as a shock jock, but I don't know if "fair" and "objective" are adjectives I would use for him when he was a print reporter.
Two of my best friends from HS were sportswriters for The Alligator. One turned it into a full-time gig with The Orlando Sentinel, and got the Gaytors beat. Once he left, the Sentinel hired Bianchi, and it's been garbage ever since.
