Typical repug. Something goes wrong and he runs whining to a Millionaire
trial lawyer to make things right.
Then his daddy whines about how there's too many trial lawyers in this
country.

>
> Rudy Giuliani's son is suing Duke University and the men's golf coach
> after being kicked off the team.
>
> Andrew Giuliani, a senior, claims in a lawsuit that he was wrongfully
> kicked off the team in February.
>
> The lawsuit says that Giuliani, the former New York mayor's son with
> Donna Hanover, was kicked off the team without any warning, and it
> interfered with the student's chances of being a professional golfer.
>
> "[Men's golf coach] O.D. Vincent announced to the team that he was
> unilaterally canceling Andrew's eligibility to participate in the
> University's Athletics Program immediately and indefinitely. Andrew
> and his teammates were shocked. Andrew had no prior notice of what was
> about to happen. At no time was Andrew ever given an op****tunity to
> defend himself; instead he was summarily dismissed," the lawsuit read.
>
> "This has been heartbreaking," Hanover said in a statement. "We tried
> for many months to convince members of the Duke administration that
> this situation should be corrected and we are sad that we have now had
> to turn to the court."
>
> The coach said Giuliani "flipped his putter a few feet to his golf
> bag" and drove fast while leaving a golf course parking lot, according
> to the lawsuit. Giuliani also was accused of playing a team football
> game harder than the other players liked and of being disrespectful to
> a trainer.
>
> The only way Giuliani can get back on the team, the suit contends, is
> with written letters of sup****t from each team member. The suit claims
> these were "unique parameters" created to keep Giuliani off the team.
>
> "Andrew's suspension would become a permanent cancellation of his
> athletic eligibility at Duke unless every single one of his twelve
> teammates wrote a letter to O.D. Vincent that O.D. Vincent deemed
> 'satisfactory' sup****ting Andrew's reinstatement to the team and
> explaining the reasons why," the suit said.
>
> "The only University do***ent that is consistent with O.D. Vincent's
> scheme," the court do***ents say, "is the library's copy of William
> Golding's The Lord of the Flies," the 1954 novel about British boys
> trapped on a deserted island with disastrous consequences.
>
> The suit also alleges that coach O.D. Vincent strong armed other team
> members to not sup****t Giuliani's return by threatening to kick them
> off the team also.
>
> "It was plainly obvious to each team member that their own personal
> interests were directly in conflict with Andrew's reinstatement to the
> team," the suit reads. "They feared that O.D. Vincent could
> unilaterally dismiss them from the team without warning or notice."
>
> Andrew Giuliani told Newsday his father is not involved in the
> lawsuit.
>
> "I love my father very much," Andrew said. "I just decided not to ask
> him to get involved in the situation."
>
> Duke University spokesman Keith Lawrence said today the university was
> discussing the lawsuit but didn't have an immediate comment.

> The 198-page lawsuit was filed Wednesday in U.S. District Court by
