You didn't read this quote in the Sunday New York Times.

Leola Tubbs, the 71-year-old mother of troubled former heavyweight champ Tony Tubbs, appealed to a judge before her son was sentenced for crimes involving cocaine, and non-payment of child support:

"I apologize to the court for my son having to appear because of his choices. He wasn't reared up in the wrong lane. Somehow, Satan caught up with him and he got pulled over in the wrong lane."
