Lenny Dykstra Is Totally Doing A Reality Show

Dan Patrick interviewed former Mets outfielder and currently financially challenged Lenny Dykstra; here are some of tidbits: "Dykstra says his magazine The Players Club is going on as strong as ever," "Dykstra said that people came for job interviews just so they could sue him and make some money," and "Dykstra said that he still has the house and the plane. But then Dan asked why was there no furniture in his house when HBO showed up with cameras. 'Just remember dude, everything isn't what it appears,' Dykstra said." Dealbreaker listened to the interview and added these gems, "If I have to live in the street I would," "If I have to eat grass I will" and "I only sleep twice a week. You caught me on my sleep day." Oh, Nails! Plus Dykstra said he's "absolutely" doing a reality show—we pray it's like I'm With Busey, with lots of Twizzlers.

He and Busey should do a show together.

A large tank of gas and a lit match would be a better show.

He never said it would be his own reality show. I could see him getting tapped for Celebrity Apprentice just for the lolz. But Celebrity Rehab is more likely.

He was never ever famous enough outside of Philly and NYC for a national TV show.

He is out of his fucking mind. The best thing that could happen to him at this point would be debtors' prison.

Ah, man. Poor Nails, that sucks for him, but maybe things will pick up.

Glad all 0 subscribers are still on board!

Zero??! I thought his mom still had a subscription. But I guess she canceled after he charged $23,000 on her credit card to charter that plane home from Cleveland:
