I found this story on the Draft Express board:

"The funniest Glen Davis story was told by Rick Majerus in the 2006 elite 8 setting on ESPN"s college game night.

Majerus was on with Steve Lavin and some moderator and he said that he had interviewed Davis during his freshman year and found him to be one of the nicest, most respectful players he had ever met. He went on to detail how he had heard from Davis how his coaching staff had been training him and restricting his caloric intake, etc. in attempts to get him to drop weight.

After the end of the interview, Davis sheepishly said to Majerus, "Pardon me, but do you have a cookie?" To which Majerus responded, "No, why do you ask?"

At which point Davis said, "You just look like a guy who would have a cookie."

Steve Lavin almost became incontinent."

Freakin' hilarious. I would love for Davis to get a daily segment on the Celtics pre-game show.

He's 10x funnier and more insightful than Gary and Donny.

i saw majerus in the st. louis airport last summer, dude was huge, funny thing about it was he walked over to starbucks, as his flight was boarding and they had to call his name over the entire airport, then i saw him "run" to make his flight.

Between that and Tyrus Thomas' story about Big Baby eating the Big Macs out of the trash when they were kids...

Big Baby is a Genius.

What cracks me up is when the ABC announcers were raving about Davis' smart play against Tim Duncan, and then they show this picture in the graphic:
