The Smoking Gun reports Fuzzy Zoeller has filed suit against the Miami, Florida law firm of Josef Sliny and Associates, whose computers were used to post libelous material about him on Wikipedia.

“Why, I oughta…”

The page was edited by someone within Sliny’s IP block to tout Zoeller’s love of Vicodin and Jack Daniels and to say he beat his wife and kids. The original text was as follows:

Later Zoeller went public with his alcoholism and prescription drug addiction, explaining that at the time he made those statements, he was “in the process of polishing off a fifth of Jack (Daniels) after popping a handful of vicodin pills”. He further detailed the violent nature of his disease, recalling how he’d viciously beat his wife Dianne and their four children while under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol. He also admitted feigning a ruptured spinal disc in 1985 so as to be prescribed a multitude of prescription medication.
