LOLz! Talk about a legal blooper!

During a press conference after waiving Jerry Sandusky's right to a preliminary hearing, Joe Amendola was speaking about the unrealistic chance that PSU officials were told of an alleged rape by Mike McQueary and proceeded to do nothing about it.

The conversation prompted the lawyer to quip, "I suggest you dial 1-800-REALITY."

His suggestion may not have been suitable for anyone younger than 18 because, apparently, that's a 99-cent-per-minute gay sex hotline!

We'd like to give a shoutout to Deadspin, the sports blog that made the priceless decision to actually call the number and recorded the hotline's intro, which states:

"Hey guys, welcome to the hottest place for triple-X action. Get ready for bulging, bursting pleasure with horny gay, bi, and bi-curious studs. Just 99 cents per minute."

We bet 1-800-REALITY's phones are ringing off the hook thanks Mr. Amendola's holiday gift of free publicity! Ha!

As you may know by now, the Los Angeles Dodgers have been experiencing some financial difficulty and owner Frank McCourt was forced to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy this past summer.

Now the team's faithful followers have filed a motion of their own to protect their interests as McCourt struggles through court proceedings to save his team.

Season ticket holders have filed court documents with the bankruptcy court in Delaware to establish a formal committee of more than 17,000 season ticket holders.

Since some have poured up to $150,000 a year into the team, their goal is to make sure Dodger funds are being used for what they consider the most important part of the "fan experience".

Basically, they want to make sure any money McCourt gets is used appropriately, for instance, to acquire new players, meet payroll, renovate the stadium, and operate concessions.

After a Giants fan suffered a brutal beating outside the stadium, the documents emphasize the need for increased security.

Sources report that if the motion is approved, they may have a voice in future decisions about the team.

This isn't Faye Dunaway's month!

The film legend suffered a broken wrist and head laceration after falling down and getting injured outside her gym earlier this month.

And now, she's been forced to postpone her court date with a former employee who's accusing her of refusing to pay him $5,780 for three weeks of work.

Luckily, the judge has agreed to postpone the December court date to January 28, which works out for Faye since she's reportedly "still trying to build her defense."

She wouldn't fake injuries to help her out in the court case, would she??
