He must have did a lot of snitching on the mob. Tony Soprano is not a happy camper. *Woke up this morning, and I got myself a gun.......*

I heard this morning on 610 that he got 33 months.

Pugs

Edit: read the article, it looks like 33 was the max, but he only received 15.

well barry bonds is still a free man. roger clemens too.

what this does is put concrete doubt in the officiating of NBA, which already had question marks.

ESPN's legal columnist was predicting less than a year, but thought the media attention would keep it from being too light. Looks like it was heavier than Munson was expecting. Seems like a good length to me.

FBI agent: NBA ref charges true
Posted: Sunday August 03, 2008 10:44AM ET

The man who put away John Gotti, baby-sat Sammy (Bull) Gravano, raided an Al Qaeda bomb factory and helped uncover the NBA betting scandal says Tim Donaghy told the truth. Philip Scala, the recently retired FBI supervisory special agent in charge of the Gambino squad, which uncovered Donaghy's scheme of betting on basketball games he had officiated, said he believes the disgraced referee's claims that other refs were dirty. Scala said he was not merely offering his opinion of the disgraced referee, rather it was his informed assessment of his credibility after his unit - officially known as C-16 - conducted an exhaustive investigation.
