If the impregnation of a teen client wasn't enough to make Jerry Sandusky think twice about his choice of lawyer, this might: After Sandusky waived his right to a pretrial hearing yesterday, Joe Amendola told reporters that anybody who believes Mike McQueary witnessed his client raping a boy and university administrators failed to act "should call 1-800-REALITY." That number is actually a gay sex line that offers "bulging, bursting pleasure with horny gay, bi, and bi-curious studs," Deadspin finds.

Amendola later said that "1-800-REALITY" is something he says "when people have said things that make no sense," the AP reports. "It's analogous to 'get a life,'" he said. "I had no idea that was a real number, let alone what it actually is. I will not be using that line in the future!" Amendola told reporters that some of the 10 men who accuse Sandusky of molesting them as children—and who were ready to testify yesterday—were only out to profit from civil lawsuits.
