Those two charges carry a maximum combined sentence of 25 years. According to AP reports, Donaghy told the judge he was on antidepressant and anxiety pills, and was under a psychiatrist’s care for gambling addiction.

Donaghy was released on a $250,000 bond.

And now … the long walk home.

    So who’s the bigger D.B. - Donaghy or Vick? I’ve got Vick by a (dog) hair…

    Vick tale is vile, but Donaghy’s sin unravels the very fabric of sport —— unscripted entertainment. And not just NBA, all sport.

    If some two-bit racketeer from Ohio can pull this off with an old high school buddy, everything is suspect.
