Say It Ain't So, Big O

Posted Oct 2nd 2008 9:05AM by TMZ Staff

Oscar Robertson -- one of the greatest basketball players of all time -- is being sued for allegedly fleecing a company he controlled and lining the pockets of his family.

In a Federal lawsuit filed in Pennsylvania, Leo Kelly claims he went into partnership with the Big O -- it's some sort of document management company, whatever that is.

Kelly claims at times the Big O was drawing more than 90% of the company's funds for himself and his family for things like travel, means and entertainment. And what, says Kelly, did he get when he complained? FIRED.

Oscar's lawyers couldn't immediately be reached for comment.

6. This doesn't suprise me at all. I used to work for this company. I actually met Leo Kelly and he was a nice man. I always knew there was something shady about that company. They never backed up anything they said. They had poor benefits and all the hands on training they promised never materialized. I guess its hard when Oscar is bleeding the company dry. What a jerk off!
