October 29, 2003 -- ON top of everything troubling George Steinbrenner, he's been slapped with a $65 million discrimination lawsuit. Juan Tapia, who worked several years as the chef in the Yankees' executive dining room, claims he was fired three years ago because he is Dominican, "Celebrity Justice" reports. Tapia says he was dumped over what management called "an unsatisfactory lobster meal," so maybe Steinbrenner just discriminates against bad shellfish. A Yankees spokesman pointed out that the team has no fewer than 16 Latin American players, and said, "George has never discriminated against anybody. It's outrageous."
