Yankees May Go On Trial

i counldn't find a link, but the boston herald had a story in the march 30 edition saying...

Quote:
"Are the New York Yankees the greatest baseball team ever or an Evil Empire with a megabucks payroll that is ruinig the game?

We know where you stand but ESPN wants to put the Bronx Bombers on trial. A two hour mock court clash entitled "Break Up The Bombers: The Yankees On Trial" will air soon on the sports network according to the New York Post.

Bruce Cutler, who has had some experience representing cutthroat mobs - he was John Gotti's lawyer - will represent the Yankees, while Alan Dershowitz will prosecute the case against George Steinbrenner & Co. Court TV's Catherine Crier will be the judge."
the only thing i did find was a pay per read story in the Post dated march 29...

ESPN did this with Pete Rose july 17, 03 and it declared him eligable for induction...
it's a form of trial by public opinion...
what's yours?
