Tony George's Life Becoming a Runaway Verizon Ad

Tony George is expected in court today to seek an injunction over what he describes as "a bad spoof of the Verizon Network ad."

"I came out of a restaurant Thursday and there were about 121 people standing there, choppers hovering, boom trucks and someone in the front that resembled that little Verizon dude," George reportedly said. "But it turned out to be Curt Cavin in disguise. This is getting weird."

George said he will seek relief from the courts so "I can at least go to the can without having 12 boom mic sticking through the window."

Insiders theorized with IndyCar/Champ Car merger interest hitting "frenzy" level, reporters have taken to staking out all the principals hoping for a break. If nothing else, they can report that "Tony had the linguine with clam sauce and a stunning merlot for dinner, which indicated he was relaxed, which tends to favor the 'deal-is-done' school of thought." Meanwhile, with space to fill, stories that amount to "nothing yet" have proliferated like opinions in a chat room.

"The last straw for Tony was when the little ersatz Verizon man kept saying 'Can you merge me now?' " a George confidante reported. "That was just creepy."

'Dog,

You're slipping. No mention of what Tony had for dessert? Cannolis and it's a done deal, spumoni, still working, tiramisu, deal's off.
