Two-And-A-Half Beeeellion Dollars

KingThis just cracks me up. Don King is suing ESPN for defamation because of an unflattering "SportsCentury" piece on him. I'm not sure how to do a non-unflattering report on Don King, but I guess that's beside the point.

The really funny part is that he is suing for $2.5 billion in damages! $2.5 billion!

I liked this part too - "King, wearing a garish American flag tie and two flag lapel pins, then quietly stepped back and let lawyer Willie Gary answer questions."

BTW, his attorney, Willie Gary, is a piece of work himself. Check his humble website here, and be sure not to miss his understated video.

Only in America.
