Former New York Giants lineman Luke Petitgout's lawyer painted the man his client is accused of slugging as a greedy opportunist. Petitgout looked downcast as he stood next to his lawyer Dennis Ring at an appearance in Manhattan Criminal Court recently. Luke has been charged with misdemeanor assault.

According to Bouncer Chronicles the ex-football player allegedly stormed into 48 Lounge on June 5. In a jealous rage he punched John Constantinides, 43, of Queens and then slapped his wife Jennifer in front of other patrons.
