Shocking! Stereotype gains traction in suit
custom tailored suitsWelcome to Lawsuit Week on Page 2. It's like Shark Week on theDiscovery Channel, but with fewer lawyers. Rim shot, please. I'll be here all week, try the Canzano. With a bigger (read: any) budget, I'd have pulled together ahigh-priced, finely tailored collection of lawyers the likes ofwhich you only find discussing the ins and outs of celebritydivorce and/or arrest on cable news networks. And we'd sit in four little squares (though this is print, and youwouldn't know it) and talk all about the hot legal issues of theday in the world of sports. We'd speak expertly, because that'd beour job, even if all we'd read was a wire story like, say, thisone, from The Associated Press. "As an aspiring racing official, Mauricia Grant had grown used toworking in a man's world. "When she finally made it into NASCAR, Grant was appalled at theway she says she was treated beginning from her first day on thejob until her firing last October. "Now she's suing NASCAR for $225 million, alleging racial andsexual discrimination, sexual harassment and wrongful termination." Shocked! Shocked! Shocked! I say, to find . . . Gambling in this establishment? (So I've got a big italics budgetand a Bogart jones, sue me.) CONTINUED 1 | 2 Next 2008-06-12 13:21:39
