    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">VISTA, Calif. (AP) -- Los Angeles Lakers owner Jerry Buss pleaded guilty to drunken driving and was sentenced to five years' probation Tuesday.

    The 74-year-old Buss was ordered to take part in a first-conviction program and attend a program administered by Mothers Against Drunk Driving. He also was fined $1,900.

    Buss owns a home in San Diego County and was arrested in Carlsbad in May. He drove with a blood-alcohol level of .13 percent, above the state limit of .08 percent.

    Buss was not required to appear in court. He entered his plea through attorney David Manning Chodos, who declined to comment.</div>

    The probation sentence will probably be shortened after a year or two, I would be suprised if Buss completes 5 years.

    This might teach the Million dollar man that when you are rich you don’t drive you have somebody else drive for you.I don’t know why he was driving but he got what he deserved.
