Joba Wants To Drive
Via the AP -
Yankees pitcher Joba Chamberlain is fighting a 90-day license revocation after an October arrest for suspected drunken driving.
Chamberlain’s attorney filed a petition in Lancaster County District Court Wednesday, asking that the decision to revoke his license — made by the state’s Department of Motor Vehicles — be reviewed.
Attorney W. Randall Paragas of Omaha says the revocation and the law supporting it violate Chamberlain’s right to due process and equal protection of the laws.
The 23-year-old pitcher hasn’t been charged, and is to appear in court Dec. 17. His blood-alcohol content level when he was pulled over for speeding on Oct. 18 was 0.134; the legal limit in Nebraska is 0.08.
Shoot, it’s already been 30 days, what’s another 60? Chamberlain should just play “good boy” and not make waves on this one. Why call for attention?
