This "spoof" quoted from the 'LetsRun' April 1, 2004 homepage...
'Jacobs lawyer, Craig Greer, was unapologetic about filing the lawsuit. "The lawsuit is 100% legitimate. Regina's life has been ruined plain and simple by her positive drug test and Suzy forced her to take the drugs. It's a rather straightforward and simple case to understand," said Greer'
... reminds me of "Moaning Meadows" claim that the drug taking Russians had caused her achilles injury because they had "forced" her to (run more mileage) train harder.
What a wonderful contrast those earlier April Fools pages are (stupid Americans threatened law suits because they had been fooled) to the present ones - they all but give the game away in today's one by giving a link to the "real" homepage.
On the plus side there is also a link to previous "Aprils Fool" homepages 2001-2013
