DEMOCRAT DIRTY LAUNDRY: Pelosi’s “Banking Expert” Faces Lawsuit For Stiffing UFL Coaches On Pay

Wealthy Friend to One Of Richest Members of Congress Allegedly Fails To Fulfill Contract to Football Coach

 SPIN CYCLE: Then-Speaker Pelosi Promised that Democrats Would “Demand the Highest Ethics from Every Public Servant”:

“Our goal is to restore accountability, honesty and openness at all levels of government. To do so, we will create and enforce rules that demand the highest ethics from every public servant, sever unethical ties between lawmakers and lobbyists, and establish clear standards that prevent the trading of official business for gifts.” (Nancy Pelosi’s “A New Direction for America,” Page 21)

RINSE CYCLE: Pelosi’s Go-To “Banking Expert” Faces Lawsuit From UFL Coach, Following a Related Suit Aimed at Pelosi’s Pal and Her Husband:

NFL coaching legend Marty Schottenheimer is suing a San Francisco financier who allegedly stiffed him on a multi-million dollar coaching contract with a football league cofounded by the husband of House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.).

Schottenheimer, the 2004 NFL Coach of the Year with the San Diego Chargers, alleges United Football League cofounder Bill Hambrecht failed to pay his $1.3 million contract to coach the Virginia Destroyers.

“After a period of negotiation, Schottenheimer expressed a willingness to serve as the head coach and general manager of the team,” states the complaint, unearthed by Courthouse News Service. “However, because the financial stability and long-term survival of the UFL were unclear, Schottenheimer wanted assurances that the payments owed to him by Team Virginia under his employment contract would be personally guaranteed by Hambrecht. Hambrecht agreed to personally guarantee Team Virginia’s payments to Schottenheimer during the first year of his employment.”

Schottenheimer’s suit follows that of former NFL Coach Dennis Green, who is suing Hambrecht and Pelosi for failing to make good on his $1.5 million contract with Pelosi’s Sacramento Mountain Lions, as the Free Beacon reported in August.

Green spoke out about his lawsuit for the first time in an exclusive interview with the Washington Free Beacon.

“For ten months I tried to work with them, but [Pelosi’s] message was ‘I’ll pay it when I want to, or when you make me,’ instead of paying me because he and I have a contract,” Green said. “He’s making me fight for the money I already worked to earn.”
