Video and copy of formal complaint filed in Bronx Supreme Court (conveniently located a few blocks from Yankee Stadium on the other side of the #4 el ) at link. Amazing how he slept through all the cheering and hoopla earlier in the game when Beltran blasted yet another homer. But seriously, there is no expectation of privacy in a public venue, in a saner world this case would be laughed out of court.

Typos and improper grammar? Sounds like he’s his own attorney. Laugh him out of court!

If they ridiculed a fan, a private citizen, on television they deserve to be punished.

This guy must have a $100k suit. The announcer ragged on him on-air for several minutes. “You’re on the wrong workout program buddy.” Of course, he couldn’t hear it.

This is both hugh and series. Could go all the way to the Supreme Court:

Nuts!

Public behavior is not a privacy issue.

Too bad. Soo sad.

Lol...this is one instance where having go in front of a ‘Bronx jury’ will not be a detriment to the defense team.

"vituperative utterances".

That's as good as "colorful metaphors".

As someone that has fallen asleep at a Yankees game, I believe he should sue MLB for putting on such a crap show.

People file pro se complaints all the time that are equally, if not more, silly than this one. Not sure why this is news.

Shulman and Kruk are the kind of broadcasters Baseball needs to keep the game interesting and vital.

Nothing worse than BORING telecasts.

Screw this chump.

but seriously, if we had mature, thinking adult men reporting games we'd have less personal attacks on fans, who are just a cheap target for the millionaire reporters....

can't imagine Phil Rizzuto having to attack the fans in order to report clearly on a game....

the sports entertainment complex has gotten just a little too much "entertainment" and not enough of sport...

Reminds me of the time in 1985, when People’s Airline had $29 fares to Boston. Six friends and I decided to fly to Boston to catch a Red Sox game. We’d been out partying the night before, and in about the sixth inning I woke up and looked at my buddies. They were all asleep! Must have been a great shot on the Jumbotron to see seven guys in their twenties all in a row sleeping. Wish I had a picture of it.

That guy needs to get a sense of humor.

“Thing is, the ESPN broadcast didn’t say any of the things alleged in Rector’s suit. Kruk and Shulman did make fun of him a bit — saying a ballpark isn’t the place to sleep and saying he was “oblivious” — but it was hardly “the avalanche of disparaging words.””
