...eager to pipe in on her more egregious offenses. As Daily News columnist Lenore Skenazy asserted, “She is too confident. Too competent. Too rich. She’s even too pretty.” If there is anything to be taken away from this scandal, it’s that in the courtroom of the American consciousness, it was Martha Stewart’s personality—and not her actions—which were being put on trial...

Hnida's nightmare tale, reported last week in SPORTS ILLUSTRATED, was the latest allegation in a growing scandal that has turned the Colorado football program upside down.
