2002 AMA Superbike Champion and future MotoGP World Championship racer Nicky Hayden is scheduled to appear on Fox Sports’ The Best Damn Sports Show Period on Wednesday, September 25, the 21-year-old Kentuckian said Monday.

The Best Damn Sports Show Period consists of former professional athletes John Salley, John Kruk and Michael Irvin discussing the day’s top sports stories “in an opinionated and humorous way” with actor Tom Arnold and show host Chris Rose, according to the show’s website http://foxsports.lycos.com/content/view?contentld=242416.

The Best Damn Sports Show Period invites only the top named athletes in sports to be on the show and few racers have appeared as guests.

The two-hour-long show airs on Fox Sports Net at 8:00 p.m. local time with a repeat later each night. Check your local listings.
