    Via Deadspin, Whitlock to go on the radio for THREE HOURS in what he is calling "The Explanation" to talk about why he is leaving the Star

    Ah, screw that. Have Whitlock come out as Gene Gene The Dancing Machine and we can all throw stuff at him. :)

    In the hands of somebody else, that would be pure genius.

    Alas, I highly doubt Whitlock is going for parody.

    Nope, it'll be three hours of Whitlock ripping on newspapers as a whole, the Star specifically, telling everybody how he was censored by The Man at the paper, talking about how much he likes writing for the Internet because they let Whitlock be Whitlock and spilling BBQ sauce on his shirt.

    What a sad person, full of self-loathing and rage.

    I can't listen at the tennis, but my twitter feed indicates a meltdown of epic proportions.
