NEW YORK--CNNSI.com’s John Donovan was beaten to death by a gang of baseball fans just days after releasing his latest power rankings, in which he inexplicably ranked the New York Mets at number 5. Afterward, one suspect said he was sorry for his actions, but that didn’t excuse Donovan from what he did.
“I don’t know what got into me. I just lost my head,” said 30-year-old Greg Lang, who was among a group of fans who confronted Donovan in a parking lot as he was leaving work. “We saw John walking out to his car and we were like ‘What were you thinking? The Mets at 5? They’re the best team in baseball! Or at the very least they’re in the top 3!’ Then he just looked at us and he had a smirk on his face, like he didn’t even care, like it was all a big joke. That set us off.”
“What we did was inexcusable,” he added. “But what Donovan did was wrong, too. Frankly, I don’t think any jury in the world will convict us.”
