NASCAR animated gopher mascot dumped

Fox Sports chairman David Hill explains why Digger, the animated gopher, won’t pop up on Fox’s NASCAR coverage this season. “He got an agent, then changed agents, then started hanging out with Charlie Sheen,” says Hill, who really is chairman of Fox Sports. “We talked about his fermented turnips. He went to rehab and moved out of West Hollywood. … I blame myself. I pushed the little guy when he wasn’t ready for stardom. He and I are in therapy.” –USA Today
