Ugarte and Rick, be careful about what you say about dem folks down in Alabama!  One of Signor Ferrari’s many sources in the Casablanca underworld forwarded this article on a surprising court order that under Alabama law a magazine (and other media) must reveal its sources in a libel and slander action precisely because it is a magazine and not a newspaper.

Over the summer, Mike Price who had been named the head coach of the University of Alabama’s fabled college football factory after the 2002 season, was fired before he ever coached a game because of allegations involving strip clubs, strippers, sex, exorbitant room service bills (by the strippers) and lots and lots of drinking.
