Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Matt Rolloff's DUI - any lawyers around?

[red5hilser (red5hilser]

Reminds me of one of the all-time jerks in the NBA, Latrine Sprewell. When he 
renegotiated his contract, he turned down a multi tens-of-million dollar offer, 
saying that he was insulted and "had to feed his family!"

In the news the other day, I read that the Federal Bankruptcy Court had just 
repo'd his house, cars,?and 70' yacht for back taxes. I don't know about his 
'Bling.' There is a God in Heaven.

He was also in a James Bond flick - "The Man With the Gold Gun" - played the 
assistant (Nick Nack) of the assassin who use the golden gun - who was after 
JB. He used to invite other "world-class" assassins to his island retreat for a 
duel to the death. If the invited bad gun won Herve's character would be given 
all of the Golden Gun Guys stuff - Island get away, great little house, etc. 
But naturally the Goldden guy always won - until (tada!) Bond, James Bond, came 
to the island looking for the Golden Gun guy.?
?
Anyway - Herve' played a pretty good sized part in this movie as well as the 
"Fantasy Island" gig. Hmmm,... $25k/week sounds pretty good to me. I guess 
those guys ony work only 13 weeks a year (??) which works out to $325k/year. 
Yeah, that could me in Big Macs and french fries - might even put a red Italian 
car in the garage.?
?
Trick is to stay away from 6' women and use the right head for thinking. Not 
always an easy things to do.?

More info about him is found at

a "short" often sad, life.?
