Sporting News: A New York man who was caught sleeping at a recent Yankees game against the Red Sox on ESPN is filing a $10 million defamation suit against broadcasters Dan Schulman and John Kruk for their "avalanche of disparaging words," according to the New York Post.
Andrew Robert Rector admitted that he "briefly slept" while in attending the April 13 game between the A.L. East rivals, and when ESPN cameras caught him sleeping during the fourth inning, the Sunday Night Baseball announcers launched into what he described as an "unending verbal crusade" against him, with their "vituperative utterances" redistributed on the MLB website the following day.

First of all, as a Yankees fan, I just want to say that this man is a disgrace to the fan base. No one should be sleeping at a Yanks/Sox game. I don't care how fat you are, how tired you are, or how much you just ate. No one should be sleeping at a game like this. Especially as early as the 4th inning.
Secondly, really bro you're going to sue ESPN, Dan Schulman, John Kruk, the New York Yankees and the MLB because there are cameras and broadcasters at a game featuring the greatest rivalry of all time? This dude sucks on every level. Sorry Schulman and Kruky like to have a little fun in the booth. They see a fat guy (keep in mind Kruky is the fattest guy on television) and wanna poke a little fun at him for falling asleep at a great game. I love how those two went about this by the way. Absolutely owned this guy. Little did they know they'd get sued because they questioned whether the guy eating all the chicken fingers next to him was his buddy or not. They just wanna know if that guy's stealing all of this fatass's food. I bet Kruky woulda backed him in that battle. That man loves his food. I think that Kruky has earned the right to make fun of a fellow fat guy since he is indeed fat himself.
I think I can speak for all of my fellow Yankees fans in saying that we do not associate ourselves with other fans of this nature and we will do our best to see that this man is stoned to death in the middle of Times Square.
